Snowy Badger's(CLOSED for Acorn)

Badgerstrike padded into the apprentices den and nudged his apprentice. "Snowpaw wake up time for training!! Meet me in the forest once you've eaten" The white and black spotted tom meowed his dark gray eyes looking around camp as he padded out into the forest.

Snowpaw woke, startled. She'd been having a dream about a leaf turning into a mouse and then she had to give chase, even though she'd desperately not wanted to…
"Alright," she agreed in the quiet way of hers, but when she went to the fresh-kill pile and chose a mouse conveniently, the smaller-than-usual she could only take one tiny bite. Her small paws were shaking too badly for her to eat the rest.

Snowpaw buried the dead animal beneath a bush, then followed Badgerstrike outside. The wind was billowing hard, and it almost knocked her away. After all, she was a pitiful size beneath her puffy fur.

"A-um…" She struggled to get within hearing distance of the black-and-white tom. "B-Badgerstrike? I—I need to tell you…something." her words seemed to be blown away by the wind, but the small apprentice hoped he could hear her. She watched him anxiously, waiting for him to turn towards her.

Badgerstrike turned towards Snowpaw. "Yeah? What is it?" The tom meowed his dark gray eyes looking at his apprentice with concern.

"I, um…" the small she coughed nervously.
"Heavypaw said that I should become a spy when I grow up," she said meekly. "I don't like killing animals. I don't like hunting and fighting so Heavy said I should become a spy." the white-and-grey blurred kit paused, trembling. "Are you going to…do I have to kill an animal?" Snowpaw looked extremely worried and horrified all at once.
