CHAPTER11
“For StarClan’s sake!” Ashfur bounded fromthe ferns and glared angrily at Lionpaw. “How did you miss it?”
The wagtail, which had whisked away from Lionpaw’s outstretched paws only moments earlier, perched on a branch above the training hollow and called an alarm before fluttering away into the trees.

He had left Heatherpaw early last night so he could catch up on his sleep. Why had Jaypaw dragged him out to the lake instead of letting him rest?
“You’re lumbering5 around like a badger6 today,” Ashfur scolded.
Spiderleg and Mousepaw padded out of the ferns with Honeypaw and Sandstorm.
“More like a hibernating7 hedgehog!” Mousepaw teased.
Lionpaw glared at his denmate.
Honeypaw flicked9 her tail at Mousepaw. “It wasn’t long ago you missed a squirrel,” she reminded him.
Lionpaw’s ears grew hot. He didn’t need Honeypaw to defend him.
“Honeypaw’s right.” Spiderleg nudged Mousepaw’s shoulder with his muzzle10. “And your climbing could use some practice.”
Mousepaw flattened11 his ears. “Well, let’s go practice, then!”
“You’d better not try the Sky Oak!” Honeypaw called out as the two cats headed for the trees. Mousepaw’s tail quivered with annoyance
