From his hiding point, Pyrostorm the massive Fire coated Tabby of RiverClan smiled to himself. There was nothing better than seeing cats just realing and playing around, free from worries or troubles.

Shaking her head in pitty Destinedpaw sighed saying, "Did you ever grow up? Or am I just very strange for a newly made apprentice?" her question was rhetorical but she had little doubt Silvercloud would probably answer anyways.

"Like my mum used to say- 'There are somethings worth loosing when you grow up. Imagination and curiosity are not one of those things.'" Silvercloud proded the beetle again. It flipped in the air, but this time, he didn't seem to mind. "You need to take time to enjoy the little things, you know. Stop and smell the roses." He sniffed, "Though I think all the roses are dead by now, but hey, stop and play with beetles!" He looked back, but, as it turned out, the beetle had taken this time to quickly scurry away. "Huh... smart bug." He mutter.

"Not really, just instictive, if you know what I mean." said a voice from the trees.
Pyrostorm landed with a thud net to the two other cats. He had a massive grin on his face and his emerald eyes sparkled like there was no tomorrow.
"Enjoying yourself there?"

"I was until it ran away." Silvercloud sniffed the air again. "I smell turtle." He said in a sing-song voice. He ran into the bushes and sure enough, there were turtles; four to be exact. He poked one; it withdrew into it's shell. He poked another one; it too withdrew into it's shell as the previous one came out. He smiled, an idea forming in his head. He pushed them in a semi-circle around him, then poked the one on the end, then the next, and the next, then the last. They all withdrew and emerged in turn. Then he mixed it up a bit, dabbing the first, last, middle left, and middle right. Then he went crazy, dabbing at random until he was panting. "You want to try?" He asked the two cats behind him. "C'mon, its fun." He said, as he dabbed one behind him on the head. Later, if you were to ask Silvercloud what this "turtle dabbing" experience was like, he would say, "Fun." However he would've also added "Painful", as the turtle he had just dabbed, decided to fight back, and bite him. Silvercloud then went through a series of emotions. At first, he was surprised, then sad, then offended, then he forgave the turtle, then he leapt high in the air and landed with a "Crunch" in the snow. "Turtle on my paw. Turtle on my paw. Turtle on my paw. Tur-tle on my paaaaaaw!" Turtle still clinging to his paw, he half dashed, half hobbled (but mostly dashed) blindly, crashing through the undergrowth for a total of about three foxlengths, before tripping (and falling) over a tree root.

Destinedpaw took his words into concideration but then froze as the other cat emerged, and brought back with him her deathful shyness. She snuck a little back into the shadows of nearer trees so as not to be noticed as much and even Silvercloud's next acts of kitfullness didn't bring back the smile or the chuckles. She stayed utterly quiet and hoped the other tom wouldn't try to talk to her much, if at all.

Pyrostorm burst out laughing and tears rolled down his cheeks. He moved over to Silvercloud who was lying on the floor and then dabbed the turtle on the head. It's jaws unlocked in fright and it recoiled into its shell. Pyrostorm picked it up in his jaws and went back to place it in it's original position and then he took up the sport of turtle dabbing. The other cat was right. It was fun!

Silvercloud rose his head from the snow, and got up. shaking snow from his pelt, and spitting snow from his mouth, he walked over to Pyrostorm. "Careful," he warned the tom, "they bite."

Pyrostorm drew back as a turtle went for him, laughing and shaking his head.
"No joke." he said, grinning before tapping it on the head.

Destinedpaw was glad they weren't taking any notice of her anymore and silent as a starclan warrior she started to sneak away so as to go back to camp and not bother them, she was always second to any other clan cat when they got together anyways. She was almost succsessful at leaving their eye veiw when she stepped of a twig that had been hidden in the snow. Hoping they hadn't noticed, and a little surprised herself, she bolted in the direction of camp, quick as a hare and silent as a panting mouse.

Pyrostorm saw the movement in the corner of his eye and turned and dashed after in, signalling for Silvercloud to follow him with a harsh barking yowl. He was no match for the young aprrentice and jumped over her and landed in front of her bloking her off with the whole of his body. As he looked upon the other cat he felt sorry for her, but that did not show in his blazing green eyes.
He looked her up and down.
"Destinedpaw, isn't it? Silvercloud is your mentor, right?" he questioned her.

'Ahh the snow! Why does it have to slow only my speed and not theirs!' her mind shouted as her terrible bashfulness sent her ears flying backwards in fear and shame. She wasn't ment for the clans after all, what had she done to make this warrior so angry at her? For that is what she saw, an angry warrior demanding her explaination. ' They'll probably abandon me now that I've done what ever I did, I am not one of them anyways, besides half of the clan already hates me!' Her thoughts filled her fear twice over and she turned to run away only to see a small brook in the direction she had turned to run.
As she saw the rushing water, breaking the thin layer of ice that had formed on it earlier in the morning, she froze unable to think of anything except the water, swift and terrifying. There she stood, fur puffed for a breif moment before she fell to her belly in fear hiding her head under her paws and crying out in fear, shame, and uncertianty, all the time her consiousness yalling at her for being such a baby, and why she couldn't have just said no.

Pyrostorm darted backwards when the female apprecntice did not answer, epecting her to charge him, instead, she had changed direction and was on the ice. His own fur stood one end and he saw it crack as destinedpaw flopped onto her belly. He charged forawrds and fastened his teeth in her scruff and pulled her off the ice.
At the same time, his claws slipped and his lower body went crashing throw the ice. Pyrostorm yowled and flung destinedpaw onto the bank as he struggled to get a gripp on the ice. Then his head went under.
A few seconds later,his whole body smashed through the thin ice and he landed in front of the young apprentice, shaking and shivvering as the icey water dripped from his pelt. An icce shard was buried in his flank and blood dripped from the long gashing wound. Pyrostorm flicked his ears up and then started grooming himself, ignoreing the pain and the cold.
Soon enough his caot was dry enough and he had removed the ice shard and the wound still bled. He looked at Destinedpaw, his eyes were full of dissapointment and questioning. He shook his head and then spoke, his voice usky from the cold.
"Happy?"

OOC: Let's just work with it, I mean, its a shame to let a good post go to waste.
Silvercloud bounded next to Destinedpaw, and saw Pyrostorm cold, wet, and bleeding. When he heard the other tom's remark he fluffed up. "Hey! Its not her fault the ice broke! 'Sides, look at the bright side; the cold water will slow the bleeding. I'll get some cobwebs, you just lick yourself dry as best you can. Destinedpaw, can you halp me look?" He wanted to reassure her in private that it wasn't her fault.
