Cloudpaw skidded to a stop and looked into the KoalaClan lands. She shook her pelt and put her head to the side while she breathed in the scent. 'They smell different too.' She quipped before looking around. 'Next! LorikeetClan right?' She grinned and started off again. 'Beat ya there!' She hollered over her shoulder as she raced along. She dodged a bush here and there but kept on pretty straight, heading straight for the LorikeetClan border. When she made it there she nearly ran into a cat, in fact, she did. 'Ow! Who're you?' Cloudpaw jumped to her paws again and arched her back at a light colored tom who had a stripe of speckles running down his back. Though he was small it was easy to see that he knew how to fight. His tufted ears twitched at the apprentice as his lips curled in a hiss.

[glow=red,2,300]"Cloudpaw? Cloudpaw, no, thats Lorikeetclan...territory." Sootfur gasped. He ran to his apprentice and flung her away from Specklestripe, a fierce Lorikeetclan warrior.[/glow] ((it is Specklestripe, right?)) [glow=red,2,300]"I'm sorry, Specklestripe. She's a new apprentice, she didn't know where the borders lay." He dipped his head. [/glow]

[{hehe, yeah}]
Cloudpaw squeaked as she scuttled back to her own territory, looking with wide eyes at the LorikeetClan warrior and her mentor. She gulped, hoping they wouldn't fight, and then, from somewhere deep down inside, she felt the wish that they would. Then she could fight too and, well, it would be exciting! She shook her head. What was she thinking?! A fight would be awful! What if her mentor got hurt? It would be all her fault!
Specklestripe blinked, looking between the two cats for a second, and then he let his fur lay back down. He nodded to Sootfur. 'I see you have your paws full. Just see that she does learn her territory though. I don't want to come back to this border and find a bunch of DingoClan scent here.' He flashed a warning glare to Cloudpaw, nodded again to Sootfur and then loped away

[glow=red,2,300]Sootfur sighed with relief as he backed off the border. "Whew! That was close." He smiled at Cloudpaw. "Don't worry about anything, that could have happened to anyone on their first time to the borders." He added quickly, so his apprentice wouldn't think she had done anything wrong.[/glow]

Cloudpaw smiled and nodded. 'Well now I know where the border is, and I don't think I want to cross it ever again.' She fluffed out her pelt and then licked it back down into place. It had gotten ruffled when she had run into the warrior and she didn't like that. To her her pelt was to be always clean and laying correctly, if it wasn't then something was wrong. She looked back up at Sootfur. 'Now what?' She mewed.

[glow=red,2,300]Sootfur sighed thoughtfully. "We could go see the Four Cacti." He said. "Where the clans gather every moon for a Gathering." The black tom added.[/glow]

Cloudpaw nodded excitedly. 'That sounds great!' She pranced eagerly around. 'Let's go! Come on! Let's run!' She shot off, knowing exactly where it was from when she had followed her clan to the Gathering. That had been fun and now she was going there. Her paws thudded on the ground as she raced along, intent of where she was going.

[glow=red,2,300]"Oh...Okay..." Sootfur said confusedly, wondering how she knew her way to the Four Cacti. "Wait up!" He called and ran after Cloudpaw.[/glow]

Cloudpaw slowed her pace a little but didn't stop as she tore towards the Four Cacti. 'What?' She asked, slowing her pace a little more until she was doing more of a quick lope than the wild run that she had been doing. Her blue eyes danced with excitement, maybe he wanted to tell her something important about where they were. She stopped completely quite suddenly at the thought, hoping that she hadn't passed the 'important place'.

[glow=red,2,300]"How... How did you know where the Four Cacti was, Cloudpaw?" Sootfur asked confusedly. "Have you been here before?" [/glow]

Cloudpaw put her head on the side, was that all he had wanted to ask her? She nodded. 'Yeah, haven't you been...' She trailed off as she realized her mistake. 'Well, uh maybe once.' She scuffed her paws in the earth with embarrassment. 'Yeah, I followed ya'll there once.' She looked up at Sootfur, wondering what he was going to say. Would he be angry? Disappointed? Proud? She knew it wouldn't be the last answer, but she didn't want to think of him being angry or disappointed with her. Her eyes dropped to the ground again.

[glow=red,2,300]Sootfur watched Cloudpaw stutter. His eyes twinkled merrily when she finally blurted it out. "Is that all?" He asked, laughing joyfully. "Cloudpaw, you don't have to hide anything from me. You can tell me all your adventures and stuff, and maybe i'll tell you some of mine." The tom smiled, waiting for her reaction.[/glow]

Cloudpaw looked astonished when her mentor didn't get irritated, and seemed amused by it in fact. Were rules really that insincere? She grinned back at him. 'I thought that I'd get into trouble since I wasn't supposed to be out of the nursery.' She admitted before putting her head to the side again. 'What kind of adventures did you have?' She bounced as she waited for him to answer, she loved to hear about adventures.

[glow=red,2,300]"On one condition." Sootfur said. "You have to ask someone before you leave camp. I expect you to be more responsible, since you are now an apprentice. You were just a kit then, and probably didn't know any better. Okay?" He smiled, pleased with himself for laying down the law. [/glow]

Cloudpaw grinned mischeviously. 'I did to know better!' She giggled. 'If it makes you feel better, then sure, I'll say I'll ask before I leave camp.' Her eyes sparkled with fun. She had a mentor, yes, and she knew that she had to obey him, but she wanted to see how much she could get away with. It was just her, she tested authority to see if it was serious before she obeyed it. So far she had been having fun, but she had noticed that Sootfur seemed to be pretty laid back, and she wanted to see if he was so laid back that she could get away with some things.
