    Nervously Moonpaw waited outside the leader's den in anxiety as he scuffed his paws upon the floor. It has to be asked he thought to himself as a breeze stirred.

    [fancypost borderwidth=0px; height: auto; width: 455px; text-align: justify;]He was neither Hyacinthstar nor Ancalagon, but Polarispaw chose to approach as well. After all, he didn't know what the apprentice wanted; why not see if he could help? That was what he always did, right? The Siamese sat across from Moonpaw, waiting silently for his response.

    When Moonpaw saw Polarispaw and Morningpaw, he nodded and greeted the two others. Again, he remembered his old mentor as he spoke "I was just wondering about my training... my mentor, Brackenfur, died before and I don't have a current mentor". He tried to smile through the sad memories, where he had paid respect to his mentor one last time where he had fallen. He had merely been the old cat's apprentice for two moons but they had been close and the death of his much valued mentor had come sudden and shocking.

    [fancypost borderwidth=0px; height: auto; width: 455px; text-align: justify;]Stars, no. This wasn't his area, not at all, regardless of whatever his rank was supposed to be. His own mentor was dead, had been for an eternity, and how had he dealt with it? Certainly not by going to the leader. Polarispaw had simply refused to replace her, unlike the tom before him.
    But there was one thing he could do. "We've got, uh, a sort of program for apprentices without mentors. Um, we train all of them together. You could be part of that, if you wanted...?" Was that good enough?

    Moonpaws eyes lit up with joy and relief at the suggestion, "thankyou Polarispaw, that would be great. Can I join?". This heartened him deeply as he smiled, fully this time at his deputy. In his heart he knew he could continue upon the path that his mentor had intended for him, as a loyal warrior of the clan. :)
    I won't dissapoint you, Brackenfur...

    Polarispaw'd taken care of it with swift action. A deep purr rumbled in her chest. "Hey, Moonpaw, after you get settled with the program, do you wanna go hunting?"

    [fancypost borderwidth=0px; height: auto; width: 455px; text-align: justify;]"Well, you'd have to ask Wingspan--I could get her for you, if you want. But, uh..." Did that sound too discouraging? He was glad Moonpaw had accepted his answer, but there was still a chance of him messing it up. "She'll definitely accept you. It's open to everyone, after all. Even I'm in it," the apprentice added with a laugh.

    "Ofcourse Morningpaw, if you don't mind" he responded, trying to ease the excitement out of the limbs for the moment so as to keep at least a steady mind.

    Moonpaw nodded at his deputy in gratefulness and hope. "Thankyou deputy" Moonpaw mewed, worrying whether he would be good enough for the training but eager all the same. The apprentice gazed at the starry sky for all he could think of.

    [fancypost borderwidth=0px; height: auto; width: 455px; text-align: justify;]No, not "deputy." For heaven's sake, he was eight months old, no one needed to call him "deputy." The deputy was Lilyfern, the stronger, the wiser of the two. He was an apprentice, same as Moonpaw--heck, even with the same problem, as far as mentors were concerned. "Just Polarispaw," the Siamese mewed, ducking his head. "But you're welcome."
