I FEEL LIKE AN ASTRONAUT IN THE OCEAN
East of camp one could find Quillpaws favorite spot to kill time when he was bored; the rockpile. It was fun to climb or to practice your jumping, leaping from boulder to boulder without toppling over or getting your paw stuck in the crack between rocks. From the top you could roll stones down the steeper side, racing the fastest ones against each other, and it was the perfect place to play King of the Hill or to catch an unsuspecting mouse.
Today the tall apprentice was practicing his jumping. About a week ago he would have considered himself to be a pretty damn good jumper, but this growth spurt was really kicking his ass if he was honest. His feet felt too big and clumsy, his legs too long. His mismatched eyes were sharp with focus as he lept from one stone to another, nowhere near graceful, but managing not to fall until he reached the top about. While the raidius of the rockpile was pretty sizeable, as far as height went it only stood maybe 7 feet tall at its highest point, so he wasn't worried about falling unless it triggered some freak rockslide and he got crushed by a boulder or some shit.
