Getting More Herbs With My Apprentice

[~†Lionstar†~]

Halfpelt padded into the forest with her apprentice Wolfpaw. "Wolfpaw go over towards the bog over there and get me some beetroot please." she said and padded over to where a stalk of mallow was growing. Halfpelt bent over and began knawing on the roots until four of them broke off. She picked up the roots and padded over to her pile of herbs.

^{Wolfpaw scambled over to the bog, glad for his dark pelt because it didn't show as much dirt as other cat's did. He sniffed around the mush for a while before he found some beetroot. Clawing at the ground, Wolfpaw dug it and bounded back to his mentor, jaws now full. Stopping in front of her, he clawed at the ground, unsure what they would use beetroot for. Still a new aprentice, Wolfpaw didn't know what a bunch of the herbs were for yet; only the ones that were used almost everyday.}

"Beetroot helps with cuts that are infected." she said to her apprentice. Halfpelt looked over at some dock leaves and said "Can you go get me some dock leaves Wolfpaw?" she asked while pointing with her tail towards the dock leaves. Halfpelt walked over to where a few poppy seeds were growing. Quickly taking a paw full she padded back over towards the pile.

^{Wolfpaw nodded excitedly and scrambled over to the dock leaves. Sniffing them, his mind stored away their scent for later use and his eyes kept the image of the leaves. Carefully pulling the leaves off, he tried hard not to poke his sharp teeth through them. Wolfpaw bounded back over to his mentor, sides heaving slightly from running around for the herbs. Dropping his stash at her paws, Wolfpaw tried to mask the growling of his stomach. His fur burned with embarrassment and he whispered a shy sorry looking down at his shuffling paws.}

Halfpelt heard Wolfpaw's stomache growl "You don't have to be sorry I'm hungry too. You know what Wolfpaw lets do a little hunting before we go back to getting herbs." she said and demonstrated the hunters crouch. She slowly crept up on a robin and pounced killing it with a swift bite to the neck.

^{Wolfpaw dipped his head, feeling grateful, and slipped off to find his own area to hunt in. Spotting a squirrel in the bushes, he dropped down into a couch. Stepping forward keeping his paws light, Wolfpaw waited until he was within leaping distance before jumping forward. He landed firmly on top of it and bit it swiftly, but not before it let out a warning cry. Wincing slightly, Wolfpaw picked up the squirrel and padded back over to his mentor.}
