Juniperpaw
To many he was the sole essence of monstrosity, a creature built upon the concept of death, his bloody eyes an immediate warning of pending catastrophe when matched by any curious bystander. Of course, his unusual features had not passed over her head undetected when she had been nothing but a mere kitten in the nursery. He had managed to frighten her absent of even a glance, but she was quick to reason that it was unfair of her to be so judgemental based on appearance, and as a result of such she had rid herself of any and all impudent thoughts that dare strike her mind from thus point onward. It had been fatalistic, dare she say, that he all of cats had been appointed as her mentor shortly after she had been so hard on herself for being so horribly quick to judge him. It was supplying her with the opportunity to get to know him on a more personal level, and although her nursery-mates had cowered away in fear when he was elected from the crowd to proceed with her training, she had experienced no such hardship, for it was of the greatest honour to learn from a senior warrior that undoubtedly had a vaster field of knowledge and information to pass down to the newest generation of eager apprentices as opposed to the young warriors that were assigned to the majority.
Juniperpaw was wholesomely aware of Whiteshade’s former apprentice, Nightstep, and through knowing of the black-and-white tomcat that had learned from him first, she was also quite swift to identify the rate at which she would be required to excel if she wished to come even close to being as excellent in the eyes of her mentor. Determined to impress, the gray-and-orange apprentice had positioned herself just short from the warriors’ den, waiting patiently for her mentor in the hopes that he would be glad to see that she was as willing to learn as she was. She couldn’t pinpoint the exact reasoning behind her longing to have a smooth training with Whiteshade, but she assumed it was only natural for apprentices to cringe at the idea of having a bad relationship with the cat that was supposed to teach them everything that they would come to use in their warriorhood. The small she-cat had every intention of putting Whiteshade’s words of wisdom to good use, and such was revealed through the glint that sparkled in the depths of her grayish blue eyes as she awaited his presence, poised in a neat sit, tail wrapped delicately around her dainty paws, and her chest puffed out in the highest of hopes that he would be as enthusiastic to teach as she was to learn.
[OOC: I didn’t specify their training. I figured I’d leave it up to you which one they do first. I also didn’t specify whether it was the morning or the evening, seeing as I wasn’t entirely sure whether or not Whiteshade would be teaching her in the dark as he had with Nightstep. Phoenix]
