Sunnypaw was absolutely loving the freedom that apprenticeship gave her. It also helped that Fennelskip seemed just as enthusiastic about the whole experience as Sunny did, it was incredibly fun! She and a few other cats were returning from her second or third patrol, and she stopped somewhere on the way back. She'd promised the kits still in the nursery some stories, and by Starclan, she wasn't going to let them miss out! So when the she-cat spotted an empty bee hive on the way back, she'd told her mentor to wait a moment, and scrabbled her way up to claw a bit of honey comb that showed through the crack in the edge.
They didn't usually see any in camp, not unless some cat had a sore throat and went to Larkbeat.
She walked the rest of the way back to camp with the tiny golden treasure wrapped up securely in a large dock leave, as per someone's suggestion, and immediately went towards the nursery when she entered the clearing, her movements quick and graceful as befit the dainty she-cat.
When she entered the familiar den, she was struck by a brief sense of nostalgia. It hadn't been long since she became an apprentice, but already it seemed like forever since the last time she'd been in here. Maybe it was because she was bigger than all the other kits now, maybe because she'd seen so much in the past sunrises, maybe because her mother and sisters weren't here anymore... Well, no matter, she was on a mission!
"Hummyki!" She called out, her voice muffled by the bundle she carried delicately in her jaws. She placed it down carefully, shining eyes glancing around to look for the familiar brown furred sweetheart. "Honeykit! I brought you a present from patrol today!" Sunnypaw declared proudly, puffing out her chest valiantly. It seemed like such an accomplishment now, that she was allowed to go out on patrol. Being an apprentice was amazing!
