The small black apprentice let out a loud sigh her tiny shoulders drooping. So tired of bieng made fun of, so tired of bieng so.. SMALL. All he other apprentices, even some warriors amde fun of the runt for her pewny stature. She was almost old as a warrior, around 12 moons and she was only the size of an 8 moon old apprentice. Tinypaw sighed again, her glossy jet black pelt drooping slightly off her boney frame. She was pretty, she was sleek and thin, but she was a RUNT, so nothing else mattered. Not that she was the best hunter out of all the apprentices, or even some of the warriors. It didnt matter that she was a good fighter. SHe was tiny and small and chibi- no,No, NO! She wouln't think like this! She was special and SHE knew it. Thats ALL that mattered. Tinypaw twitched her wiskers, looking around camp. She must look a little wierd sitting here muttering to herself, and her tail was poofed out behind her. well, I might as well ACT normal She groomed down her tail softining the fur....

OOC//: Draco is Daggerpaw's mentor and Talon is Tinypaw's. Swiftly a tom pounced to stand behind the smaller shecat. "Whatcha doin Tinypaw?" the tom questioned inocently. It was the first time he'd used the shecats real name and he had no cruelty showing in his optics. He had to surpress his mocking smile that fought to spread across his face.

Tinypaw repressed a sigh. "Thinking of starclan?" she grumbled glaring sideways at the tom standing next to her. She could feel the fur rising on her shoulders. Yeah! More tormenting. "I know what your going to say so shut your trap mouse brain, Starclan are REAL and I know it!" She snarled, her neon green eyes looked like acidic ice.

Daggerpaw held down his laughter and forced his eyes to be gentle. "I'm not suprised you believe in them." he paused, his smirk growing as he his lit up with his tormenting nature. "It's only natural for you to believe in LoserClan." he cackled as his words escaped. "Mousebrained Runt, always cowering undernieth the Clan of pansies! Pathetic!"

Tinypaw gazed at Dggerpaw, not angry but an odd look of sorrow. " So.. you call Starclan pathetic?" she asked watching the other much larger apprentice. "So in other words all the cats you have known.. all the cats that have died, are pathetic for wishing to continue looking after there clan mates? Wouldn't you want to watch your family, your friends after you have past on?" she asked her green eyes demanding.

Daggerpaw's tormenting aura grew stronger. "As a matter of fact, I would not want to watch my Clan once I'm gone. When I die it will be because I either screwed up or am old and useless, so either way I am of no more help to MysteryClan." he mewed confidently. "Perhaps you should just go join WindClan, home of the speedy and cowardly." he cackled. A shadow fell over the two cats and Daggerpaw slowly turned, to be eye to eye with their leader. "Miss Talon, you're apprentice..." he began to tattle on the young shecat, but was cut off by his leaders harsh voice.
"Do you think I am deaf, boy? I heard the whole conversation." Talon snarled, locking eyes with the young tom cat. "If you know what is good for you, you should go and find Draco. It's obvious you need to be put to work if the only thing you can do to help your Clan is pick on Tinypaw." She saw the tom's eyes look first confused, then frightened and respectful as Talon slithered her claws from their sheaths. He slowly turned to find his mentor, shooting a hateful glare at Tinypaw before running off. Talon layed her icy pale green optics onto Tinypaw. Her eyes didn't grow gentle, but less harsh then they had been when set on Daggerpaw. "You need to learn to defend yourself young one. Mere words can not defeat all enemies. Daggerpaw is one you must use force rather then voice." her voice was gentle, like that of the famous ThunderClan leader, Bluestar. Talon was not the harshest of the MysteryClan cats, some may even say she was friendly at times. She tried to make all of her Clan happy, but still giving them gentle shoves in the direction she believed was the proper path. She would not holler or fume over Tinypaw's belief in StarClan, but she would try and get her to the belief that most of The Others cats had.

Tinypaw smiled shyly at her mentor. "Im sorry Talon.." she mewed swishing her tiny paw in the dirt. Her head snapped up abruptly, her eyes bright. "Will you teach me to fight , Talon?" she begged leaping to her paws, her tail snapping up. "Please, oh please!" she begged bouncing up and down in front of her mentor.

Talon smiled understandingly and then gave a small laugh as the apprentice begged to fight. "Of course hun. What use are ya if you can't fight?" she mewed jokingly. That was how it was in The Other's Clans. If a cat couldn't fight, they were nothing. "But before I do that, I need to asses your hunting. Hunting is the easiest of the two tassks so I need to be sure you master the easy one bfore I teach you the hard one." with that she got to her paws and began running into the trees surronding the camp...

Hunting! Not as good as fighting but still! It was good to be good at something, and Tinypaw was one of the best hunter in the apprentice den. She charged after Talon into the forest. The second her paws touched the damp ground her body slipped down into a deep crouch, her nose twitching. She padded forward on velvet paws as she waited for a scent of prey to touch the roof of her mouth. There. A shrew sat stupidly right in front of her. nibbling on an old brown acorn. Her neon colored eyes took all of this in before the took on a hard edge. She didn't enjoy killing but she had to if she wanted to live. Tinypaw flung herself forward the second she was in range. The shrew scrabbled in the leafs under paw, but was to slow. Tinypaw caught it by the tail and slammed into tiny head into the ground....

Talon watched in amusement, examining the young cats killing tenique. Luckly the shrew was fragile and died with a simple bump to the head. "Good kill." Talon complimented lightly. As long as Tinypaw was able to hunt, Talon didn't care how she did it. She waited, exmining to see if the apprentice would scent the air and go after another creature...

Tinypaw smiled hugely at the parse. Than turned away. The others were all about action, nothing else mattered. So.. Action, food.. prey.. Tiny's nose twitched. "there" she whispered, mainly to herself. Her nose led her to the roots of an old half charred oak. Her body slipped forward, all her weight positioned in her haunches as she stalked forward. To say nothing else the thrush died swiftly under her claws. Pulled the dead bird over to the vole, dropping it she dug out a hole tossed the prey in and buried it, turning towards the open area's of the territory, towards the rabbits!

Not a word escaped Talon's lips as the apprentice made yet another kill. She too could scent the rabbits and she knew of how acute their hearing was. Silence and speed was kee with these creatures and Talon knew these were Tinypaw's strong points. Her small composition made her light on her paws. She waited patiently, not even allowing her tail tip to twitch as she waited for the young shecat to go for the kill.

One paw. Another. Step. By. Step. Tinypaw slunk forward. Her tiny body was perfect for stalking. As she neared the rabbit her nose had identified, a new problem showed it's self. The rabbit was bigger than her. OH MOUSE DUNG! Tinypaw thought. Her eyes snapped to the place Talon was watching from. Her pelt prickling. Fighting the urge to find a smaller bit of prey, Tinypaw continued to pace towards the prey. Her paw came down to hard. NO! The two shapes rocketed forwards. Hunter and prey. If I don't get this rabbit Daggerpaw will find out and Ill never live it down! Tinypaw's small body shot forward at a surprising velocity. Claws ripping at the ground, her legs flashing in and out. In and out. Her eyes stayed locked on the bobby white poof of the rabbits tail. Finally with a mighty leap she slammed onto the rabbits back. Her claws gripping tight she managed to wriggle around and break the things neck.
