"GOT A LITTLE CASH NOW SO THAT SKIRT IS DIOR"
There is a comfortable familiarity to the relationship that Bubblepaw shares with her mentor. As if they have always been a part of the young apprentice's life. After all, if the warrior is capable of raising RiverClan cats so skilled and well-rounded as Mosspool, they must be just as good (if not better) themselves. They move quietly toward the river. Days alternate usually; the training schedule is set by Aspenhaze and Bubblepaw obeys and falls into the routine with enthusiasm. Today is a hunting day. Bubblepaw is getting close to being able to actually catch a fish. Her political and fighting skills are far better so far.
However, Bubblepaw is unusually quiet today. As she and Aspenhaze find their way to the shore, the apprentice's words are few and far between. She shuffles her feet, kicking rocks and shells and twigs along the way too, a contemplative maneuver. The silver tabby blinks in surprise when they finally appear at the shoreline, the sun glinting innocently against the rushing waters. Bubblepaw frowns. This is the exact place that has been on her mind so much lately. The exact place that she, Starlightpaw, and Velvetpaw had watched Otterpaw commit such an act of violence that it clings to the back of Bubblepaw's mind like a hungry tick.
Finally, Bubblepaw decides that she just can't take it anymore. "Aspenhaze?" Bubblepaw turns to her mentor with a look of confusion and despair "Can I ask you about something I saw happen here? It was awhile ago, but..." the silver tabby turns her gaze back to the water, and it's almost like she's there again. It's like she's watching Edenpaw and Otterpaw huddle scandalously close and exchange words before Otterpaw assaults and nearly rips all the fur from Edenpaw's back. The blood which fanned behind the SkyClan apprentice like a sunset, and the praise Starlightpaw gave whilst Velvetpaw and Bubblepaw hung back in surprise. "...It's been bothering me."
