Closed Thread [Closed] A Time to Hunt and Play

Boulderdash had invited Shadesleek out for some hunting and just time away from the camp. The dawn patrol and had already been out and they weren't on the sun high patrol, so the brown tabby and white she-cat offered to hunt with her sister. As the two young she-cats had left camp, Boulderdash had been lazily hunting, as if she were just playing and her head was in the clouds. Even so, she had already managed to catch a distracted mouse and a fat young rabbit, which she had buried so she could fetch it on their return trip to camp.

Boulderdash's blue and green eyes glanced around, taking in the scenery, thoughtful. Maybe on the way back, she might be able to hunt down a bird fledgling to take to the kits to play and practice with. They were getting close to becoming apprentices. That was good! She and Shadesleek still had to do a lot of the apprentice's duties because they were the youngest warriors but it also made her worry a little. There were only two apprentices and none of the other she-cats in the clan seemed to be expecting kits anytime soon so where would that leave things in the clan once the kits were apprenticed? 

She noticed the scent of a mouse and, after a moment of stalking, pounced. She felt the ground under her paws and knew she had missed. Even knowing this, she shifted a paw to peer under it. "Hey Shadesleek? Were you wanting to be a mentor to one of the kits? Do you hope Badgerstar might ask you?"
