Copperpaw trotted up and stared around the soft sandy area. his pads had been bleeding a bit but the more he explored the better he was getting at things. his orange fur stood out as he sat down on the sandy earth and waited for his big brother and Shadowpaw to turn up. he smiled happily as he thought about shadowpaw.

When Shadowpaw arrived at the training ground she spotted Copperpaw. She watched for a moment as his orange fur shined in the sun. Deciding to make her presence known she yelled to Copperpaw " hey, am i the only one whos paws are really hurting?" she asked. " are you ready to start training?"

Nightowl appeared and said calmly "your pads hurt because you are used to the soft ground of camp, dont worry they will soon harden up. so what would you two like to learn first? hunting? fighting? scouting?". he fell silent so the two could discuss it between themselves.

"hmmm, i think we should learn how to hunt first because then we could add to the fresh kill pile, what do you think Copperpaw?" " or we could go scouting to learn the territory better." " but then again there is fighting, theres so much to choose from." she said in an excited voice.

Copperpaw grinned "fightign! so we can protect ourselves from our prey better!'. he wagged hsi tail and pounced on his friend lightly noming on her ears. his long copper tail whipping back and forth with excitement.

----------------------

Nightowl sat there smiling watching his two apprentices. there was going to be alot of work training them but he knew that he could do it. his eyes narrowed and a determined look passed over his face.

Shadowpaw yipped as Copperpaw jumped on her and started to nibble on her ears. She rolled over to get him off of her and then she nipped at his tail. Tail wagging " can we start with fighting first Nightowl?" She said trying to keep her tail from Copperpaw's reach.

Nightowl nodded and said "you can practise on me then practise fighting each other, right, there are several moves. one of my favourites is the paw bash. you run up to an enemy and slam your paws down onto their muzzle or head". he demonstrated on a stick then sat down and indicated for them to try it on him.

Shadowpaw ran straight for Nightowl. And as she reared up to slam her paws on Nightowl's muzzle, she lost her balance and fell backwards instead. " man i thought it was going to be easy." She said to Nightowl a little disappointed at herself.

Nightowl chuckled and said "its always worth going through hardship to get what you want because then you appreciate it more". he flicked his tail at his little brother a hard glint in his eyes told Copperpaw that he was not going to go easy on him.
///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

Copperpaw growled rising to the challenge in his brothers eyes. he threw himself at his brother all heart now skill. he fell short by a few milimeters and sat up. rubbing his nose with the back of his paw he said "could we try that again brother?"

Shadowpaw watched as Copperpaw's orange fur flew by her to attack Nightowl. She thought for sure that Copperpaw would be able to do the move. there must be some way to approach this and succeed she thought. " hey Nightowl, how come we both missed?" " is there something that we can do to help ourselves." she asked curiously.

"your technique depends on the way you fight wether its more defensive and sneaking in attacks or more like copperpaws more attacking although Copperpaw you should never blindly attack. use your paws as tools to bat out of the way or land a blow. change your course be hard to predict". he said remembering his training with an older wolf who had taught him more forgotten types of battle moves.

Shadowpaw soaked Nightowls words up like moss soaks up water. Change my technique huh, i can do that. Shadowpaw dashed forward and faked like i was going to go for the head with one paw. But then i used my other paw to hit Nightowls muzzle. " How was that Nightowl."

(dont forget in a real practise fight you can only rpyour perspective, pm me if you want more intel)

Nightowl blinked then nodded his eyes glittering with approval "well done, remember if you can predict their movements but they cant predict you, you have already half won the fight". he lashed his tail and said "thunderclan is best at moving through thick underbrush. copperpaw try doing what Shadowpaw did to me while shadowpaw tries to sneak up and leap onto my back"

Copperpaw blinked his eyes and tried again, this time he ran low like he was going to go for hsi paws then at the last minute he bounced straight up and slammed both paws down on nightowls muzzle. he sat down and panted proudly. he was beginning to think that he would enjoy learning about all this and the next thing. he wanted to try the sneaking through undergrowth as well.

Shadowpaw watched as Copperpaw skillfully did the move. " nice job Copper." she said standing up and streaching her front paws. " how about we try that other move that Nightowl said, you know where we attack from the undergrowth."

Copperpaw nodded and trotted off heading towards the undergrowth. suprisingly his copper pelt blended in well with the undergrowth. he watched as Nightowl stood in the snow and listened to him say "your aim is to land on my back without me hearing your paw steps. if i hear you it counts as a miss and you have to go back to the start"

Shadowpaw crawled into the undergrowth next to Copperpaw. She used his shadow to better help her blend in to the surrounding. " Copperpaw i think that instead of just rushing we should creep towards him." and which ever one of us who goes second should step in the others foot prints so that the snow wont crush as much and give us away." " what do you think." she asked her tail lightly swishing the ground as she waited.

Copperpaw nodded, his ears shoved forward in his own goofy grin. he wagged his tail and motioned to say that he would go first. he slowly began stalking his big brother, pretending that he was a Sunclan wolf. he kept low to the ground and slowly spiralled around his brother. searching for the optimum place to leap form.

Shadowpaw watched as Copperpaw creep stealthily forward. After a moment she followed suit. she made sure she was quiet and low. But she stepped where Copperpaw stepped. She didnt want to give them away before they could actually attack. Instead of seeing that she was about to attack Nightowl, she imagined that it was a Windclan wolf. She waited for Copperpaw to make the first move.

Copperpaw flicked his ears and grinned devlishly at his friend. he leapt up and toward nightowl. nightowl heard him leap up and turned with a cuff of his paw Copperpaw got lightly pushed back into the snow on his back. he gasped as he felt the breath get pushed out of him. he glared at his brother.

Right when Copperpaw jumped up, she stalked to the back of Nightowl. After she was where she wanted to be, she turned to see how Copperpaw had manged. she saw him get knocked down. When Copperpaw got knock down, she position herself so that she could leap right onto Nightowl. Then she leaped.

Nightowl grunted as he felt small paws on his back. he blinked and grinned at Shadowpaw "well done shadowpaw". he stood and began shaking in an attempt to get her of he said. "i want you and copperpaw to try and have a bit of a practise battle."

Shadowpaw hopped off of Nightowl. She wagged her tail with completing the move right. " You want us to have a practice battle,so what do you want us to practice." "this is going to be fun." as she said that she was thinking to herself: Can i really do this.

Nightowl chuckled and said "everything make up moves find your own unique fighting style". he sat down and flicked his tail. he waited a few moments then said "begin Apprentices!". he furled his tail over his paws and watched with curious eyes. he wondered how they would do.
