Shadowfang nodded, his mood improving with the good performance of his apprentices. "Good job Rainpaw." he said. "We'll make warriors of you two in no time. Alright, I think you have the "mouse theory" in your heads. Now, lets try rabbits or hares. What is the most important thing to remember about hunting them?"

Ghostpaw snorted a little louder than she had planned. 'Same thing!'

"No." said Shadowfang, smiling condescendingly at Ghostpaw. His dark eyes settled on his other apprentice. "How about you Rainpaw? Any ideas?"

Rainpaw nodded "A hare depends his his speed more than his hearing so I think we should be speedy and not so quiet and time comsuming"she said quietly.

Shadowfang nodded. "Yes. A rabbit or hare does not feel the vibration of your paws. It's hearing will probably be it's earliest warning that you are coming, but yes, it relies on it's speed, and does not take off until it is sure there is danger. And if you don't get it on the first pounce, chances are you won't get it at all. They're devilishly speedy little blighters."

The she-cat snorted once more, impatiently.

Rainpaw smiled at the praise she glanced over at Ghostpaw wondering what came over her.

Shadowfang looked over at Ghostpaw, annoyed. "Ghostpaw, you're acting like your sister. Take a better attitude with training or leave. If you are not in the mood to learn, you would be better of elsewhere."

Ghostpaw rolled her eyes before nodding. 'Yes, Shadowfang.'

Shadowfang resisted rolling his eyes in return and continued speaking. "Well, we just talked about rabbits and hares. You two, go and see if you can catch one. Bring it back here, and if you want, make it a race, first one back doesn't have to carry all this food on the way back."

Rainpaw raced off into a bush. She raised her mouth and scented the air. A rabbit was nibbling on some leaves. Rainpaw remembered what she had learned and droped down she shifted her wieght quietly, and sprang so fast the rabbit didn't have time to run. She restled with it ,and the killed it. She burried it so she could come back. She went farther and caught the scent of a hare. This time she would chase it so it would not get away. She raced to it, the hare ran aways but rainpaw was fater and cut it off on a turn she killed it with an easy swip. She got up and padded back to her other prey picking it up, she hurridly wnet back to Shadowfang"I-I-I"she said gasping for air"here"she said in one breath.

Ghostpaw nodded and sprinted off into the undergrowth, swiftly and quietly. A scent of a rabbit was wafted towards her, and she set towards it. She crouched down in the undergrowth and watched it for a minute. Thank StarClan, the wind was downwards of her position. She breathed her prayer to the Clan of the Starpelt and lunged for the rabbit. Though the rabbit had heard her, it didn't last. The she-cat landed upon it's back and bit down on it's neck to drag it away. Rainpaw had beat her. She dropped the dead rabbit upon the ground and sat behind it, waiting for Shadowfang's reply.

(Ene Menie Minie moe...er, Ghostpaw won) Shadowfang's eyes widened slightly. "We'll all be as fat as kittypets when you two start going out on hunting patrols. Well done." The mottled warrior said. "Very quickly done as well. Ghostpaw, I believe you were first back, so you are excused from having to carry this lot back to the camp."

((Yesh! I love ene menie minie moe!))
Ghostpaw sat proudly and nodded. 'Good job, Rainpaw!' She mewed encouragingly. Her old habbits were coming back, entering newly with her own courage.
