Stalking In The Rain

Yawning and shaking the raindrops from outside off of her short pelt, Falconwing peered down at her apprentice, before prodding her gently with a paw. "Lilypaw. Wake up." The sun was not visible through the blanket of water-heavy clouds, but a few cats were awake and alert, and the gray sky was just beginning to take on a lighter hue. When will this downpour end? A small smile on her face, she motioned to outside the den. "Are you ready to start training? I think you'll enjoy a hunt and a tour of the territory this morning." Stepping back into the cold and drizzle, she shivered momentarily, waiting for Lilypaw. It's cold, we'll just have to move quickly and stay mostly under the tree cover.

Lilypaw lifted her head when Falconwing called her name. The morning air was bitter, and in places, the apprentices den had started to leak due to such heavy rain. Carefully, she stretched out her back, then crept quietly towards the entrance. She didn't want to awake any of the other apprentices - she still felt like she didn't belong, and therefore didn't want to get on anyones bad side. Blinking sleep out of her eyes, she went to join her adoptive mother, and now mentor, outside in the freezing rain. As the harsh breeze caught her in the face, she fluffed out her cream pelt. "Sure, lets go," she said, shivering, and on a happier note,"I can't wait to see Thunderclan territory."
