Slatepaw padded out of apprentice den with confidence, scenting prey in the middle of the camp. She wondered if her mentor would be okay with her taking food now and decided that he would have to be okay with it. She was hungry. Yanking a vole from the pile, she chose a corner and started to eat it.
Ripplepaw followed after his sister and watched as she grabbed food. He decided to wait until his mentor gave him the go ahead before eating. Sighing, he sat down and gazed at the sun that filtered in through the entrance of the camp, while keeping an eye out for his mentor. He couldn't wait to be out there in the sun.
Flintfire nodded to Dunestripe and Littlepaw as they left to collect herbs. "Have fun you two!" He purred after them, turning to the herb store. "I better clean this so there is room for the fresh herbs." He murmured to himself, pulling the juniper berries out and sorting the new and old into two different piles. He gazed out the window nearby longingly as he finished up the juniper and moved onto the marigold.
