MorningStar finally landed, and dragged the doe over to the fresh-kill pile. The warriors and apprentices were all out training, and the elders basked in the sun. Slowly she walked over to the Queens' den, wings folded. She came upon a yellow-furred queen, with four pups scrambling all around her. "You wanted to see me, GoldenWolf?" she asked. "MorningStar" GoldenWolf began, "I believe that my pups are 6 moons old today, and I was wondering if I could train one of them when I go back to my duties." MorningStar nodded. "Anyone you have in mind for the others?" she inquired. "Well..." GoldenWolf hesitated. "Some of the new warriors don't have an apprentice, is it okay with you if the other three go to them?" MorningStar nodded, surprised at the request. GoldenWolf usually toook much longer to decide who her pups would go to. "Which ones?" she inquired. "LightHeart, StormClaw, and..." she hesitated; "Is it okay if you take the Brown one?" MorningStar was startled. She and GoldenWolf had been friends since puphood; but they had been growing farther and farther apart. "Of- Of course." she said, stammering a little. GoldenWolf smiled. "Thank-you" they both said at once. MorningStar nodded her goodbye, and walked back out.
