A tiny bundle of striped orange and white fur flew by and heavy white paws pounded the earth. Sebastian had leaped over the river. The young cub had grown allot. In five moons he would be an apprentice, and could start training like a real warrior! Although, Sebby already felt like a warrior.... just, a much smaller version. He'd always been very bold and courageous. Social too. Wanting to receive attention, the tiger turned and took off across the land, heading back for camp. He knew he was too young to be wandering the territory alone, but being that he was so big and bulky, despite his rather petite size, he longed to stretch his legs. The cub's silver eyes were beginning to change color, though they remained an odd pale yellowish color, and the sun reflected off of them. As soon as he'd approached the camp, he braced himself for a scolding from his caretakers. Surely, they'd be angry that he'd left camp? Or perhaps they wouldn't have noticed at all. |

Timepaw turned his head to see Sebastian arrive at camp. "Where have you been?" He asked. The black and white tom didn't know Sebastian very well, in fact, he barely knew the cub at all.

Sebastian sighed when Timepaw questioned him. Then he reminded himself that Timepaw was only an apprentice, and he'd the advantage of being bigger than the tom. That was one of the tiger's great advantages in war. Being bigger than all the other cats, along with his sister, Strawberry. Now he couldn't disagree that there was a chance of other big-cats living along in the other clans though. Just like himself, there might just be another tiger cub living in one of the clans close to him, or even a lion! Shuddering at the thought of battling with a lion, he brought himself back to Timepaw, and his question. "Oh... just out stretching my legs, that's all." He replied coolly.

"You might be big, but you still shouldn't be out of camp without permission, and a warrior" Timepaw mewed, eyes scanning Sebastian, he stood his ground. The tiger cub might be bigger than Timepaw, but that didn't mean he had more authority.

"I know that." Sebby replied, calmly. He wanted to apologize, but it felt strange apologizing to a cat around his age. Ranks were so stupid. Just because he was one moon old, he didn't get to be an apprentice. And he couldn't leave camp because of that. Thinking for a second, he then narrowed his eyes and looked at Timepaw again. "So that means I can get permission from you and you will escort me through the territory?" He suddenly asked.

"I can't give you permission" Timepaw mewed simply, "warriors and older can, though they can ask me to escort you." The apprentice hadn't ever escorted someone around the territory, it wasn't really something apprentices did.

Sebastian smiled at this. He had just proven a point. "Exactly." He said, flicking his long tail and padding farther into camp. It wasn't Timepaw's place to give the cub permission, nor escort around the territory. And it wasn't his business that he'd been walking the territory alone. For all he'd known, he could of had gotten permission from a warrior, had an escort, and had came back to get help with battling a patrol, or even something worse then Sebastian. Cats shouldn't be so quick to jump to conclusions. He thought.

Timepaw rolled his eyes, turning away from Sebastian. The tiger cub didn't get it, did he? Size wasn't everything. He was the age of a kit. Meanwhile, Timepaw was being trained to be a warrior. The cub should know that he was breaking the rules, and breaking rules definitely wasn't something to be ignorant, overly prideful, and just downright snobbish about.

[wouldn't it be so ironic if timepaw ended up as sebastian's mentor? cx]
meanwhile, sebastian pranced over to the freshkill pile, taking a sniff at the prey. he longed to go hunting, but he was only a kit. see, the problem with the cub was he was bored. if he knew where his sister was, then he would play with her, but in the present moment, he'd no clue. the poor tiger plopped down onto his side, letting the sun shine down on his orange fur and turn it to flame.

(Yesssss :3 . They would have to deal with each other, as Sebatian tried to do things how he wants, while Timepaw tried to get Sebatian to do what he says.)
Timepaw padded over to the apprentice den. Maybe Imaginarypaw would like to go hunting, though he wasn't sure where she was.

[xD how amusing that would be]
imaginarypaw was lying in her nest, preparing herself to retreat from the den and become active by hunting, or doing something active. she drew a paw over her ear, repeatedly.
nighty, deciding to make her other charrie active, brought angelkit out from the shade of a tree. she spotted timepaw going into the apprentice den, and sebastian lying near the freshkill pile. the she-cat was nearly an apprentice, having one moon left, and wanted to do something entertaining.
[ideas.....]

"Imagine?" Timepaw mewed, ducking to enter the apprentice den. "Oh, hey" he mewed, smiling a little at his friend.

Imagi stopped in the middle of her grooming to see Timepaw padding in. She smiled back at the tom and gave a little nod in greeting. "Hi," She said, licking her other paw and cleaning the other side of her face.

Timepaw shifted. "I was wondering if you'd like to go hunting" he mewed.

She stopped, shifting into a sitting position to turn her blue gaze on Time. "Of course I would!" She said, smiling as usual. "That's actually just what I was getting ready to go do."
