[center] Sunfur watched in amusement as Moosepaw shivered like a kit trudging through the snow towards the rest of the hunting patrol. [color=DAA520][i] You would think with all that fur he wouldn't feel the cold at all. And if he has this much fur NOW think how much fur he'll have when he's fully grown. Maybe he could spare some to pad the warriors den! [/i][/color] He chuckled to himself at the thought. Although Moosepaw was clumsy as well as a little lazy, Sunfur had high hopes for him as a warrior. His large and heavy frame would make him almost unstoppable in battle and his fur was so thick it would be hard for enemies to even reach his flesh in a fight. Following the rest of the patrol out of camp, he walked gingerly behind Duskwing listening for prey in the undergrowth. He halted suddenly as he scented something a few tail lengths to his right. Immediately dropping into a hunter's crouch, he could see it was a groundhog. It was sniffing the air around it's den cautiously only coming out a few inches at a time. Sunfur waited until it turned it's back and exploded off his hindquarters landing squarely on the groundhog biting it's neck killing it quickly. [color=DAA520][i] Thank you StarClan for this prey [/i][/color][/center]
[center] Burying his catch, he could hear Duskwing and Moosepaw talking in the distance and trotted to catch up with them. [color=DAA520][b] "I caught a groundhog back there, not too far from camp." [/b][/color] He gestured with his tail towards the patch of undergrowth where it was buried then sat down a few tail lengths away from Duskwing while she quizzed her apprentice. He was almost glad when he asked to join the Clan that Fernstar hadn't made him complete an apprenticeship; it seemed hard and demanding. But he understood the purpose; what good is a warrior if they don't know the Warrior Code or the best fighting moves? He had picked things up quickly enough from when Fernstar taught him and Maplestream back when the Clan was formed. In a way, even though he never completed an apprenticeship, he did feel special that he was one of the first cats in WillowClan. Breaking out of his internal thoughts, he let the rest of the patrol know he was going to go scouting for prey nearby and he would bring back anything else he managed to catch. Feeling determined, Sunfur padded through the snow towards a stream, hoping some small animals would be looking for water. [/center]
