Tall hill ( hunting/ gathering herbs)

"Have you hunted before?" ShadowWhisper asks Shortkit. She glances at the kit. She curls her tail around her legs.

"n-no" she confessed shuffling her paws. She was alone for half a moon and lived off of stealing from rouges, she never hunted.

ShadowWhisper thinks for a moment. Maybe I can train her, perhaps PineStar won't mind. She glances at the kit. "Well, I will train you if that is alright with you," Shadow says.

(we are contacting Pinestar and if he doesnt by the end of the weekend when friday comes we are taking his leadership away and making an active member leader. Maybe you :DD)

Shortkit squealed in excitement "YAY!" before she hopped around in giddiness.

(Okay, thanks, Purestar! :3)

ShadowWhisper smiles as she watches Shortkit. She is soo adorable! "Okay now, before we train, I would like for you to tell me about yourself. What is your strengths and weaknesses?" She looks at the kit.

"I get touchy when people talk about me being short" she said and thought for a second "I'm actually really strong too" she said looking up at Shadowwhisper.

"I can see that..." ShadowWhisper says. "How well do you control your legs?" She thinks for a moment. "Are you fast and agile?"

"No, I'm actually kind of.. Clumsy" she confessed glancing at her wide-spread paws.

"Okay, so I'm going help you with hunting, fighting, your leg movements and other things you need to know," ShadowWhisper says. She glances at Shortkit. "Don't worry, I see you as a fine warrior. Don't let anyone make you feel bad about yourself. If something is wrong, you are free to tell me." She closes her eyes and nods her head. She curls her tail. Shadow waits for the kit to respond.

Shortkit nodded in understanding "What do I do first Shadowwhisper?" She said her tail curling back and forth in obvious excitement.

ShadowWhisper looks at Shortkit. "Well, before I teach you hunting skills, I will teach you how to use your legs correctly without being clumsy." She blinks her eyes. "If you are clumsy while hunting, there is a better chance that you will loose your prey. You have to keep quiet when stalking your prey," Shadow adds. "Walk to the tree in front of you and then walk back to me." Shadow points to the tree with her nose. She wants to know how well she uses her legs.

She nodded and turned towards the rare tree. She walked towards it in her normal hobble, she had a very long body and low hanging belly fur. So she had to hobble to keep her belly fur from trailing in the grass.

Hmm... "Try standing tall and walk like this," ShadowWhisper says. She demonstrates her smooth walk. She stands tall and walks to the tree. "Also, try to focus on walking without hobbling. Can you do that?" Shadow sits down and looks at Shortkit.

Shortkit nodded hesitantly before turning and trying to lift her head straight. She tried lifting her paws higher when she walked but the strain on her long spine when she lifted her head high made her flop over. She got back up with a sigh.

"Hey, don't give up," Shadow says encouragingly. "Try relaxing yourself while you walk at the same time." She smiles at the kit. "Don't worry, you will get your walk together sometime."

She tried again and grimaced at the pain in her spine when she lifted her head. She ended up toppling over again "I can't!" She meowed, her voice strained.

"Don't you dare say that you can't do it at your second try!" ShadowWhisper growls. "Take a deep breath and try again," she speaks more calmly. She looks at Shortkit with her olive-green eyes. Come on... You can do it...

Shortkit tried to do it again her face scrunched in a painful grimace. Shortkit was just not built to be able to do some things other cats are able to do. She had a longer, narrower spinal cord. She just wasn't built for what Shadowwhisper was asking for her to do. She walked forward trying to lift her paws higher than her usual hobbling gait.

"Hey, follow me as I demonstrate," ShadowWhisper says. She walks in place to show Shortkit how it's done. She flicks her tail for her to follow. "Come on Shortkit, don't give up."

Shortkit let out a frustrated groan as she tried again and failed. She rolled to her paws her eyes dull "I won't get it" she said quietly.

"Yes you will!" ShadowWhisper says. "Don't give up. You will get it one day, I believe in you." She glances at Shortkit. "Let's try something else, but I you will continue later." She sniffs something. "What do you smell?"

She lifted her head in the air and drew in a long breath. "It smells... Musky.. What is it?" She said her eyes curious.

"How about you figure it out, go on," ShadowWhisper says as she smiles. "I'll be behind you." She walks behind Shortkit.

She stalked forward carefully and poked her headbehind a tall stalk of grass. Suddenly a rabbit barged through that knocking Shortkit backwards. She let out a hiss her claws meeting it's throat when it slammed into her. It let out a dying sound and fell onto its side, blood pooling from its severed throat. "Woah! A rabbit! I killed a rabbit!" She let out a victory yowl her eyes bright.

"Good job, Shortkit! I'm very proud of you," Shadow says happily. "Let's go back to the camp. Say thanks to Star Clan first." She purrs.
