Featherpaw stood in the clearing. Her head pounding from all the running and hunting, and training she was doing. In the distance, she saw her friend. Lilacpaw, a white furred shecat with long fur. She breathed in the hollowclan scent, as it smelled of the Siberian trees that scattered her clan. She walked down the steep hill leading into he clan. Cats were talking, sharing tongues, and setting up hunting patrols. She was happy that she was in a nice, caring clan with people she loved, she knew nothing would go wrong and everyday would be a perfect day, but some things has a slight turn.
"Hey Featherpaw!" Mewed Adderpaw, her sister,
"Hey Adderpaw.." she mewed back. She was tired and weak from hunting, and couldn't stop staring at the full fresh kill pile.
"you look hungry sis. I guess that hunting was hard wasn't it.." Adderpaw mewed. Her sister was a new apprentice and has never been to training yet. She was very determined to start though.
"Yeah, the training is a pain in the stomach.. and talking about stomach, mine is empty!" She complained. She saw the hunting patrol coming back as her excitement raised. She ran faster than a cat running from dogs as she greeted the warriors quickly and immediately grabbed the biggest animal in the pile, a juicy rabbit. Her sister slowly followed behind grabbing a vole and devouring it. They ate quietly but swiftly, getting every last bit.
"Hello Adderpaw and Featherpaw, how was your training Featherpaw?" Their mother asked,
"Ugh.. I didn't exactly enjoy it, but I had to do it." Featherpaw unenthusiastically mewed. She honestly hated training. Her mentor, Ashpelt,with short fur and black colored fur, was very strict. He never let her have breaks or do things she wanted. Her friends mentors were very nice and friendly, she was pretty jealous.
" training isn't the best every day." Her mother mewed, "we've all had bad days."
"Well my bad days are every day!" Featherpaw mewed, "my mentor doesn't even let me have a break! My other friends mentors are nice and Ashpelt is so mean!" She whined. She couldn't keep in all the things she had to say about her mentor. Especially around her mother.
"Well think about it Featherpaw, the more you train the stronger you will be. The other mentors aren't as strict as Ashpelt, but he is being strict to turn you into a powerful warrior! Even though you may get no breaks, it's probably better. You just have to take a breath and keep going." Her mother meowed. She was right,it was better for her to keep going with no breaks so she can be stronger than any other warrior out there.
"Thanks mother." Featherpaw mewed as she passed to her mom. She wrapped her tail around hers as her sister walked over next to her mother. She licked Adderpaws cheek as she sat down next to her. The Leader, Stormstar stood on the high rock indicating a clan meeting. Featherpaw her mother and sister walked together and sat down, thinking it would be a quick little announcement, but to there luck, would change there life

Ugh this is so lazy sorry 😐
