Well, there was certainly no time like the present. With more herbs running through her system to bat off the most recent wave of symptoms that threatened to make Mintglade's life particularly tumultuous, she felt as ready as she could be. It was one of those days where the sun was out instead of the sky being blanketed in dark Grey clouds, and Mintglade couldn't have been more thankful for the reprieve of what felt like constantly-falling snow. A glance towards the large mountains that jutted into the sky had to have been the cause of the way it rippled into their safe valley below, but she'd never be strong enough to stop the weather. Instead, she'd simply be able to enjoy what it brought. Moving on quick paws towards where the Apprentices slept, it didn't take her long at all to pick out the one who had been placed under her guidance. "Shatteredpaw," Mintglade whispered on a hushed breath, "Let's go hunting!"

Stepping away to allow the tom time to wake up, the large silver Molly waited by the path that warriors had begun to take to go into the greater forested area.

An apple a day keeps anyone away if you throw it hard enough

Shatteredpaw awoke from his slumber to a cheerful voice and bright sun. The sky no longer cried frost, but the land was coated in soft, white powder. The tom crawled out of his nest, surprised when his paws sank some into the snow with each step. How was one meant to run in such terrain? His coat was dusted with white as well, from the previous night's fall, and when he shook out his fur the snow burst into the air around him like dust. What a peculiar thing snow was. The tom yawned, then approached his mentor, blue gaze lingering on the bright she-cat for a moment before switching to observing the path that they would take.

There was no shortage of entertainment and amusement that registered on the warrior's face as her apprentice sleepily took in his surroundings. She had been filled with abundant elation and surprise at the sight of snow upon the first time she had seen it, and to watch the puzzled look was admittedly a bit amusing. Keeping any mean laughter to herself, the mentor allowed Shatteredpaw some time to fully wake before she would take the lead. "I know we've worked a bit already, but how about you show me some of your skills? Some birds, perhaps?" She suggested. They hadn't had as much time to really test out hunting birds in the treetops, and now seemed like a good day.

After all, Mintglade had some more strength to her than the previous times she'd taken Shatteredpaw hunting. Before, it'd been a challenge simply to be able to launch after a few of the mice they'd found on the ground. Now? She felt she could at least get into the branches. Hopefully, Shatteredpaw had the energy to make up for what she lacked. As they came to a good canopy of trees that offered clear views with the branches, her tail flicked as she came to a stop. "Lets listen for any birds... and try to go after any you can see. Remember, focus your weight on your haunches to stay on the branches."

Shatteredpaw nodded, moving off as soon as Mintglade finished speaking in search of prey. It wasn't long before the sound of birds reached his ears, and instantly he froze in his place. His ears shrivelled to detect it, and once he was sure of where it stood, he dropped into a crouch and began creeping towards it. In the few training sessions he had had with Mintglade, he had memorized everything, and practiced it for nights at a time in order to perfect it. His body coiled like a snake ready to strike, paws tingling with anticipation as he awaited for the bird to move out of the security of the ferns. It hopped out, shining eyes just catching his shadow before he was on it, teeth closing around it's neck with deadly precision. Shatteredpaw picked up his catch, pleased at how clean it was, and looked over at his mentor for her feedback.
