Little Thistlepaw

[holidaychild]

Thistlepaw sat at the edge of the clearing and watched the kits and apprentices wrestle and play with each other. He thought of his own lonely life- no mother, father, or littermates. He padded over to the apprentices den. "Maybe I'll sleep for a moment," he mumbled to himself. He came to a quick and sudden stop. "I'll go hunt!" he thought excitedly. "I'll bring back the most prey ever by an apprentice. Then I'll be a legend like in the elder's stories!" He quietly padded to the camp entrance.

Thistlepaw quietly slipped out the camp entrance. Now where should he try hunting first? Even though he had been an apprentice for a moon, he still hadn't been shown LeafClan's territory. He had heard some warriors talking about the thorn bushes. He decided to try there. When he reached the bushes, he smelled a vole inside. He crouch low and tried to make his pawsteps silent. He leaped into the bush. He drew back imediantly. He was covered with sharp thorns! He ran in hopes of finding the mossy pool. He eventually found it and attempted to sooth his wounds. He knew he needed to get to LeafClan's medicine cat. He blindly staggered through the forest. He suddenly reached a beach. Then he smelled SunsetClan scent markers.
