Shortpaw heaved himself out of the apprentices den, and over to Hawkpaw, who was just grabbing a piece of prey from the fresh-kill pile. " So, your finally up!" Hawkpaw joked, lunging towards his brother. Shortpaw scrambled from his grasp and grabbed a fish from the pile. " Ewwww, he heard Hawkpaw's voice behind him. "You like fish?Gross!" Shortpaw rolled his eyes and took a large bite of the fish, savoring the juicy flavor in his mouth. I cant believe you like fish! Hawkpaw exclaimed. "Only IceClan eats gross crow-food like that!" Shortpaw hissed, them leaped onto the large pale ginger tom. Shortpaw knew he was overpowered by his brother, but he didnt mind. Hawkpaw swatted him off, and he went flying right into Dawkwhisker. "Dawnwhisker!" Shortpaw exclaimed, and he scrambled up. " I'm sorry! " Dawkwhisker, rolled her eyes, followed by a long jokeful sigh. "It feels like just yesterday I was nursing you too mouse- brains". Shortpaw ignored his mothers joke and trotted back to his fish, and gulped down the rest. Just as he got up, Cloudfur, his mentor, aproached him. Birdsong wants me to bring you on a hunting patrol. He told Shortpaw. Shortpaw nodded his head, and turned his gaze to his brother. Could Hawkpaw come too? Shortpaw asked, cheerfully. Cloudfur looked at the apprentice, "I dont see why not." Hawkpaw sprang up from his spot by the fresh kill pile and made his way over to Shortpaw and Cloudfur. He lifted a paw and rapidly rubbed the tuft of fur on Shortpaw's head. Shortpaw quickly moved away, growling." Come on you two rascals!" Cloudfur hissed. The trio stalked out of the camp, admiring the beautiful view of trees. Shortpaw's eyes widened. Its even more beautiful during new-leaf!
