Ashcloud led Stormpaw to the edge of the lake, and showed him how to catch a fish. He watched as his apprentice tried to catch a fish, and said," Remember how I told you to do it. I'm watching you! Now try it again." he sounded calm.

Stormpaw waited for a fish to swim by. He tried to catch it the way Ashcloud showed him, but he missed. "No! I'm sorry Ashcloud, I tried to get it." he said.

"It's ok, did you see how close you got? next time, that fish won't get away. Besides, practice makes perfect!" Ashcloud replied to Stormpaw

Stormpaw nodded and waited for another fish to swim by. He waited for several minutes before one came along. This time he got it. "I cought it! I cought my first fish!" he excliamed.

" Fantastic! I'll bet f we catch a couple more, forestpaw and riverheart won't come close!" He said. "What will the rest of the clan say when they find out how you caught a fish so early in your training?"

"Let's head over there" Ashcloud said as he pointed with his tail to a clump of ferns and a few rocks near the edge of the lake. "We'll look for mice, or voles, or whatever we can scent." He led his apprentice over about three tail lengths away from the ferns. "OK" Ashcloud whispered, "What can you scent?"

"I smell rabbit," said Stormpaw after a couple minutes," and maybe a mouse."

"Good, good. Now, where would you expect them to be?" He said, urging Stormpaw to answer.

"I guess the mice would be by the rocks and the rabbits would be hiding in the ferns," guesses Stormpaw.

"Excellent, now let's practice your hunting crouch..." Ashcloud said, while showing his apprentice how to sneak up on the prey. "Now you try, keep still, and wait."

"Okay," said Stormpaw. He copied his mentor as close as he could. He waited for a peice of prey to come near. It was a mouse who was the stupid one to come near. Stormpaw pounced. It took him a couple more seconds to kill it then it would have for a warrior.

Ashcloud smiled and shook himself. he knocked over his apprentice with his paw and said," Since you are such a great hunter, why don't we try your battle moves? This shall be fun, don't you think? I'll show you some moves so you can sneak-attack the other apprentices in their sleep" he laughed and led Stormpaw over to a clearing where there were no rocks that they could fall on, and started explaining some attack moves to him. "Now, attack me, please." He said, and stood waiting for the attack.
