it's a beautiful new day | intro

Daylight was peeking into the den, signalling the start of a new day. Gold eyes blinked open as Nettlepaw was taken out of her dreams by the sunlight on her face. She breathed in the cool air for a moment, glad that the den was able to keep most of the chill out, before jumping up onto her feet. There was no time to waste! She could go training, or hunting on her own, or maybe she could practice fighting with one of the other apprentices! Speaking of them, she glanced around the den, and found most of them were still asleep or only just waking up. 
"Good morning!" she said, not lowering her voice one bit. The idea that some of the others may want to carry on sleeping hadn't crossed the apprentice's mind. She didn't want to sleep so why would they? Nettlepaw knew that there was so much they could do, so she should make sure that no one missed out. She was particularly enjoying the leaves that had recently fallen to the ground. They would crunch underneath her paws and it was so much fun! "What does everyone want to do today?" she continued, bouncing slightly in anticipation.

"It's not early, silly! It's already daylight outside!" she replied, not caring about if he was being rude. That's just what Newtpaw was like now, after all. Nettlepaw knew he wouldn't have that much fun if he was just being grumpy all day though. What was the point of doing stuff if you weren't going to have while doing it? It was now just a question of how to help him be less grumpy and rude. She furrowed her brow slightly as she concentrated. What would make him happy? "Oh, I know!" she exclaimed. "How about we get something to eat? I always feel better when I'm not hungry!" The dilute tortoiseshell was beaming, clearly very proud of her brilliant idea.
