    The tom was near the entrance of their cave system, using the fog to his advantage in this self-teaching expedition. Today Hornetpaw was going to practice hunting in the fog. Of course it was only a night after his apprenticeship and he had had no official training yet on this skill, but he had ambitions. Having taken a small mouse from the freshkill pile that he was sure no one would miss, the ginger feline was ready. He placed the mouse in a spot on the gravelly entrance and padded a foxlength away. To be sure he had no idea where the item was he spun around a few times as well.


    The dizzying affects of this spinning forced him to sit while the affects wore off. Hornetpaw had a salty expression after that, he felt defeated by the basic physics that forced his break. With a mix of determination and ambitions he lifted his nose to the overcast sky and took in a few breaths. Where was that mouse?

    Of course, at the time, Hornetpaw certainly seemed more than ready to be apprenticed. Despite the fact that the boy was only a moon away, Cher considered the events the child had managed to pull himself to and deemed him worthy. Even then, the leader couldn't help but question his decisions over and over again. His gaze softened. He guessed Brindlestar was right. He was insecure. Perhaps he never paid much attention to the way he felt in general as the flame point pulled himself out of his den.


    The caves seemed unusually quiet as he noticed Hornetpaw leave with a mouse in his jaws. What in StarClan was the apprentice doing? He scrunched his nose, following behind the smaller male as he watched his place the rodent then proceed to spinning around a foxlength away. He snorted slightly. Anyone in their right mind would still have the memory of where they placed the mouse but the fog did help hide it just a little better. Hornetpaw was just...hindering his balance and sense of direction. Not bad. "Practicing your tracking skills, kid?"

    He had just settled into his hunting stance, legs tucked under like springs, when Cherrystar spoke out. The newly ranked apprentice stopped his bum wiggling. [b]"I'm practicing my hunting in the fog."

    He shifted his gaze to his mother as he shifted his weight to a crouching position. "Am I doing it right?" He asked them both.

  • [align=center][fancypost bgcolor=;border:0;width:500px;text-align:justify;font-size:8pt]To be fair, all cats had different methods of hunting. So long as they got to the prey in the end and delivered the final blow, the male believed it was fine. "I probably wouldn't wriggle around so much but so long as you stay light on your feet and reduce the attention to your body as best as possible, which I'd say you're accomplishing, you're fine," he said, watching the boy resume his position. It was good to see him ready to practice, but he couldn't help but wonder where Weaselheart was. Perhaps the warrior was busy. "Just remember that prey will often smell you before they see you, so it's important to note the proximity range different prey will notice."

    He nodded, eyes focusing on the fog before him. His little salmon nose scented the air around him, trying to smell the dead mouse. [b]"Okay."

    Hornetpaw murmured, listening with one ear turned in their direction. "This one's dead so he's not gonna run from me. But if he was, would he run if I was this far?" Asked the male, in a concerned voice. He didn't think he could jump that far. His legs were still pretty short.

  • [align=center][fancypost bgcolor=;border:0;width:500px;text-align:justify;font-size:8pt]It was good Hornetpaw was trying to learn outside methods from his mentor. He admired that from the apprentice considering he remembered himself when he had to train. He was amazed his mentor had survived such a traumatic experience. "I'd say it's a good distance. You could be a couple of paw steps further if you want a run up to ensure you're able to pounce if it does try to run," he began as he looked at the male's distance. It didn't seem too bad, "You can run up before it notices and pounce. If the mouse begins to run, go for the pounce. Otherwise you might end up in a chase if the timing's wrong."


    [ ooc ] choppy, assumed hornetpaw's distance from the mouse.
