Mist barked her approval, "Bravo, Aimi! Very well done! Owen, think you can give it a try?" She flicked her tail to Owen, but kept her proud gaze fixed on Aimi. She'd never seen such skill in such a short time.... Owen dipped his head, and stepped forward gingerly. He crouched down, as Aimi had, and slowly placed his paws forward. He then realized his snowy white tail was sticking straight up, and lowered it with embarressment. As he closed in on the grass, he ran three steps and leaped as his fellow neophyte had. He pinned the grass and inclined his head towards the others, uncertain. Mist nodded again. "It was a good first try, and there will be some mistakes. Mistakes help us learn. There were two things that really stood out to me. Firstly, your tail was up the first few moments. You realized this and corrected it, and that's good. The second thing might ease away with a little more practice. Your pawsteps are uncertain, but that's normal. Why don't you both give it another try?" Mist flicked her tail to Aimi and Owen.

Mona watch her neophyte with pride. She had done spectacular and Mona had showed that with her expression of pride. She watched Owen and showed congratulations. She gave an encouraging nod to Aimi.

(to MONA??? ) Owen crouched down once more, tail going down with him, this time. His small, but muscular form slunk forward along the ground. His ears were back and eyes were narrowed with concentration. He was focused completely on the green stem protruding from the ground in front of him. Moments passed in utter silence, but Owen could hear his heart beating loudly in his ears. One Mississippi...two Mississippi....three Mississippi...NOW! He darted and leaped, all in one, fluid movement. He pinned the grassblade swiftly and severed it with a sharp, black claw as if to kill his prey. Mist chuckled softly at her son and student. "A performance of patience and focus, Owen!" She praised him. She turned to watch how Aimi's second go of it was coming along. After this, they could start sniffing up some live prey...

{ Okay...let's just skip to the hunting part since Acca's being slow XD}
Mist flicked her fluffy, sparkling white tail and motioned for the other three to follow. "We should get on with the hunt, then. The prey pile looked a bit low before I left," Mist barked. She glanced back at Mona, promting her to ask the neophytes what they scented. A sparrow flitted through the greenery, but Mist didn't move and inch. She wanted the neophytes to observe and find things for themselves.

((I was at VA Beach for your information! Even though it's like freezing cold))
Aimi looked around. She moved her head slowly so she could see everything and not miss out on anything. She spotted a sparrow. How should I catch this? I was never so good at catching birds. She crouched down low to the ground and observed the sparrow carefully. If it escapes, I probably won't be able to go after it. So I have to try to do this right.
