 Nightflame closed his eyes for a moment. Then he looeked to the skies. "Im not the type of cat that likes to be around others. I put all my trust in Starclan and noone else." Nightflame said. he looked back down to the kit. "sorry. im not really good at talking about myself. anyways... any questions?" he asked the kit.

[Foamkit laid down next to the tom, who must have been at least twice as large as her. "I may be only six moons old, but I'm not one to appreciate being 'protected'. If you do decide to be my mentor, could you understand my wanting to be treated as a full-fledged apprentice, and not just a kit?" she asked blankly.]

"even if you were my apprentice, i would still ask if you had any questions." Nightflame said. "as a warrior you may have to be both, "protected and the protector." Nightflame said.

 L i g h t n i n g s t r i k e"Vigilance is to be the only one to stick with it until the end, no matter the obstacles surrounding the victory."______________________________________ ((Oho, bring it on! >D Lulz, I know. That's his "special" thing-- he's very much like Tigerstar (IN HIS BUILD, NOT HIS AMBITION.) XD He's a massive cat, stronger than almost any warrior. He's a very distant descendant of Tigerstar, so he shares his massive build and enormous strength. And I meant to have him catch a giant salmon almost thrice his size, it adds to the fun! XD))
[Lightningstrike padded to his pile of fresh-kill carrying three plump mice and two fat water voles. He looked at his humongous pile, but it still wasn't good enough! He padded back to the river, his amber eyes locking on the ripples and what lay underneath.
He saw a flash of rose pink. His massive paw dove into the water, keeping the remaining of his pelt dry. Though he loved SeaClan, he didn't like to get his paws wet from dawn until dusk. He scooped out a smaller salmon than his last catch and killed it swiftly. He dropped the salmon behind him and turned his gaze back to the swift water.
By the time he had finished his hunting, the sun had begun to set, setting his silver pelt afire. He scooped up his massive salmon and his other fish: another salmon, two trouts, and a quite large carp, all in his mouth. He struggled back to camp, his huge load weighing him down. He made it into camp, dragging the giant fish between his paws. Well, that'll show Ravenwing! And I've got more to retrieve. Lightningstrike snorted in contempt. He dropped his bundle of fish on the fresh-kill pile, his prize salmon sitting atop the pile. His amber gaze swept the clearing and settled on Robinsong, nestled in the warriors' den. He snorted in arrogance and shifted back outside the camp, going to retrieve his next bundle of fresh-kill.
******
Lightningstrike padded into camp, his head held high in dignity and partial defiance. He dropped his three mice, two water voles, and squirrel on the fresh-kill pile. He grabbed a water vole for himself and settled down outside the warriors' den, convienently in front of Robinsong, right inside the den. His belly growled from his day-long hunting escapade. He longed to wait for Robinsong, but his belly growled loud enough for the whole camp to hear in protest. He bit into the water vole, it's juices spurting into his mouth. He finished it quickly, then set to work grooming his mud-caked pelt.] ______________________________________

[With a slight tint of pride in her voice, Foamkit responded "I wouldn't be the kind of apprentice or warrior who needed to be rescued".
She looked up to the sky, noticing the sun was setting. 'uh-oh.' she thought, her mother was going to be furious.
"So will you consider it?" she asked, eyes still locked on the sun setting, "being my mentor?"]

"I shall think about it." Nightflame said. he noticed the sun was setting. "ah.. sunset..." he purred. He watched the sun as it began to dissappear. "go. your mother will be worried. i shall ask mossstar about your apprenticeship." he told her.

[Foamkit nodded before standing up. She turned around to head off to the nursery den, but paused. Then, she turned back around and nudged the fish closer to Nightflame, before padding off to the nursery den]

ll ядveишiиg ll   ((Ravenwing looks weak in comparison crying Lol Ravenwing is a fishing cat, he's got short waterproof fur and streamlined body, so probably not your strongest cat but certainly your best fisher.
OVERHUNTING THE FOREST...lol having cats in forests will soon wipe out the forest's ecosystem...oh well XD))
[Ravenwing kicked dirt over his pile of 4 fish as he headed back to the river to catch more. Fishing was his specialty, since he had exactly the right build for it. The shoal of Ruffe were still there, easy to catch and not too big so he could not carry them.
By the time he had finished, he had killed 4 more of the Ruffe shoal, each fish about 10 inches long. As he turned around to leave, a flash of white grabbed his attention. Swimming deep in the river was a large pike, its spiny dorsal fin clearly visible.] Here goes nothing... [He thought as he took a deep breath and plunged into the river, heading towards the enormous pike like a torpedo. The pike snapped at him, a fish almost twice as large as himself, but Ravenwing refused to give in. Killed by prey? Never! A fierce battle took hold underwater, eventually with Ravenwing sinking his teeth into the back of the pike's skull. Dragging the fish up underwater was easy since it was a low gravity environment, but once he got to shore, he started to regret what he had killed since this enormous pike would be difficult to drag back. He buried the pike deep into the mud, before picking up the rest of his fresh kill and heading back to camp.]
[He ignored any glances his clanmates shot at him as he arrived at camp with an enormous bundle of fish: 7 Ruffes speared on a sharp stick and a moderately large Carp, as big as himself. He dropped these fish on top of the fresh kill pile, noting the salmon that lay on top of it, before heading back for his Pike.]
[By the time he was back at camp, it was already sundown. His pelt was still dripping wet, and he dragged back an enormous pike twice as large as himself by the head. He dropped the pike right beside the salmon, noting with disappointment that they were exactly the same size.] At least I know that the pike put up much more of a fight than a stupid salmon. He thought grumpily as he took one of his Ruffes, padding towards Robinsong - but noticed that Lightningstrike was already in front of her. His ears flattening, he planted himself right beside Lightningstreak, shooting a haughty look in his direction.]
"So, decided to go fishing in your long furred pelt? It's a wonder it didn't drag you underwater and drowned you."
[He said in a carefree tone as he bit down into his fish, glancing at their prized fish that lay on top of the fresh kill pile: Lightningstreak's Salmon and his own Pike.]
Trout Salmon Carp Pike Ruffe
Fishery lesson for today XD

Troutail padded up to Nightflame "do you know anyone who hasn't eaten yet? Because I have my eye on the salmon on the top of the pile, but it's too big to eat myself. So, has anyone not eaten?

L i g h t n i n g s t r i k e"Vigilance is to be the only one to stick with it until the end, no matter the obstacles surrounding the victory."______________________________________ ((XD Lulz! Well, my pictures don't exactly help >< Lulz, he doesn't mind getting wet, he's not wild about it though. But true, Ravenwing is a great fisher. I can't say the same for Lightningstrike! XD))
[Lightningstrike narrowed his amber eyes at Ravenwing, scorn showing through.]
"Oh, and you think you're so great because you can fish better than I?"
[Lightningstrike snorted in contempt, throwing a glance purposefully at his marvelous catch.]
"And I see your pike got its own treatment? Or did it jump out of the river crying, 'Ravenwing! Catch me, catch me!' Hmph!"
[Lightningstrike snorted again, ignoring the black tom. For the silver tabby was far stronger and more massive than the smaller black cat. Then he realized where this arguement was getting him: nowhere. But Lightningstrike refused to be beaten.
He turned up his nose and faced Ravenwing, his hard amber eyes staring down the black tom.] ______________________________________

"I havent eaten yet. Apparently there is plenty to go around." He nudged the fish that Foamkit had left for him. He wasnt really hungry but he knew he had to keep his strength up.

"So do you want to share the salmon? It's alright if you don't, I just won't eat the delicious, fresh-caught, flavoful salmon. But if you don't want to share it I'll find someone else".

ll ядveишiиg ll "For your information, since you seem to have feathers in your brain, pikes eat salmon, so you just hunted my prey's prey. That says something about you and I, doesn't it?"
[Ravenwing retaliated quickly, though not in a hostile manner. His matter-of-factly tone made it seem as though he was merely stating the obvious, rather than trying to provoke a fight or expressing his contempt for the silver and black tabby.]
"A piece of advice, my friend, in this forest it's not the size of your shoulders or the amount of blood you spill that counts, it's what's between your ears that's the real deal."
[He said with a twitch of his whiskers as he glanced at the massive tabby, noticing the amber eyes glaring down at him. Mustering all his willpower not to swipe his claws across that disdainful amber gaze, Ravenwing looked up from his fish and looked fully at his own black pelt, before turning to Lightningstrike with a puzzled expression on his face.]
"What? See something on my pelt?"
[He asked the massive tabby in mock surprise, even though he knew very well why Lightningstrike was glaring at him.]

 R o b i n s o n g“Beauty has two edges, one of laughter, one of anguish, cutting the heart asunder.”_______________________________________(( I JUST REALIZED SOMETHING. If Lightningstrike is a distant descedant of Tigerstar, then he's related to Robinsong! She's related to Hawkfrost...which was my original plan, but I guess I could just, um, push that aside for now. lD ))
[Robinsong couldn't stand it any longer. She stood up, the pain in her legs beginning to fade, and arched her back. Her muscled rippled beneath her thick pelt as padded lightly up to Ravenwing and Lightningstrike. She hoped they hadn't noticed, but her claws were unsheathed as she stood before them, head held high and cold eyes looking down upon the toms. Sure, she looked pissed, but if one was observant enough, they'd see a glint of humor shine in her mismatching eyes.]
“Bickering like a couple of old she-cats, I see. What? Nothing better to do than argue over who's catch is better, eh? Few can rival your unparallel hunting skills,” [She addressed them both, those she cast a quick glare at Lightningstrike, implying that his arrogance was a bit over the edge. A heartbeat later, she shot the same look at Ravenwing. Oh StarClan, she looked like a mother scolding her kits.] “but to fight over something like this? Absolutely ridiculous. You two should be proud of how much you're offering SeaClan.” [She let herself relax a bit, her claws sheathing instantly. The calico she-cat let a grin cross her lips, and her mischevious eyes narrowed at Ravenwing as she leaned closer to him, her muzzle just a whisker away from his own.] “And, Ravenwing, my love, don't worry. Your pelt is gorgeous, as always.”
[Robinsong smirked, gazing deeply into his leaf-green eyes before diving for the Ruffe he was eating and tearing a moutfull off for herself, smiling all the while. A light mrreow of laughter escaped her as she stepped back, realizing how easy it was to trick the tom. In the deepest reccesses of her mind, though, she felt like in doing so, she only angered Lightningstrike, which, strangely, brought joy to her heart.]
“You were right, Ravenwing. It is what's between the ears that counts!”_______________________________
