Lilystream smiled back. The apprentice was rather quiet, so she wanted to make sure that Dovepaw felt comfortable. She led her out of camp, a bounce in her step. As they reached a clearing she turned back around, flicking her tail happily. She loved the snow, the way it fluttered down and crunched under your paws. Maybe it was because her thick fur protected her from it’s cold. "What do you want to learn, Dovepaw?" she asked, her eyes lighting up with excitement.
She remembered the feelings she had experienced when she was younger, the excited day-dreaming, the enthusiasm as she learned ro hunt, fight, climb, as she learned what being a warrior was about. Sometimes she missed those days, everything seemed so much simpler. Apprenticehood was a time of it’s own, and things had certainly changed. But deep down the warrior was still the happy she-cat she had once been, even if she was struggling to see that now.
