Arcticstripe slowly jogged out a open area in the Apple Tree Grove. Her eyes searched through the heavy pour of rain for her new apprentice, Spiderpaw. The rain made it impossible to see but a couple of tail-lengths infront of you though. Arcticstripe shook her head, and sprayed water droplets all around her. It was an attempt to get herself dry, even though she knew that she would just get soaked again. Her blue-gray fur clung to her body, and her blue stripes shone brighter then they ever had before. She dug her claws into the ground and waited for Spiderpaw.
She wouldn't normally take out an apprentice in pouring rain, but the lightning and thunder had calmed down. There was no way she was going to wait for the storm to pass either to give her apprentice his first training session.
She had considered hunting, but quickly swept it out of her mind. It was almost impossible for her to find prey in this weather, it would be impossible for Spiderpaw to hunt, especially when he didn't even know the crouch yet. She had thought of just teaching him that, but it would probably make the crouch easier if he knew some fighting moves first. So she had rested on teaching him some of the moves she had taught Boulderclaw when he was first learning how to fight.
