Hunting grounds

[Fern]

Wind padded into the same place that she and Fern had hunted the day before, sitting down curling her tail around her front paws she waited for Redwood.

[Raven]

Redwood padded in and sat down. He felt very nervous being around the prey hunter. Does she trust me or does she think I'll kill her too? Redwood asked himself in his head as he looked at Wind.

[Fern]

Wind studied Redwood then stood back up "Well Raven expects us to come back with something" Wind meowed turning her gaze back into the forest sighing softly "If you need help, find me" she mewed just as soft. Tasting the air her swift paws lead her away from Redwood

[Raven]

Redwood stood up a little shaken. He tasted the air. Well, i do know how to do that. He meows to himself. The scent of a mouse came to him. He padded in the direction. "What does a mouse look like again?" He tried to remember and the way a mouse looked came to him. He poked his nose out of a bush to see the small thing nibbling at a small root coming out of the ground. He jumped out of the bush and ran towards the mouse. The mouse spotted him right away and dashed away. Redwood felt his feet urging him to run faster. Then everything seemed to go blank and he found himself flat on his belly with a dead mouse in his claws.

[Fern]

Wind walked over to him a dead rabbit hung from her jaw, she caught sight of the dead mouse. Setting down her fresh kill "Well I guess you aren't completely useless it would seem, but next time try not make such a rucuss, you scared away half the prey with that sloppy jump" Wind meowed picking the rabbit up again then buried close by.

[Raven]

Redwood sat up and shook the dead leaves from his pelt. "Well, I think I'm useless." He meows. "I don't even truly know what I did. All I remember is as soon as I started going faster and then a blank and then I found myself on my belly with the mouse in my claws."

[Fern]

"It's called instinct, just let your hunting side take over and let the fighting part of you go, then you'll become a true hunter, and while your at it, stop doubting yourself, you'll get nowhere alright?" asked Wind

[Raven]

"OK." Redwood still didn't understand, but he went along with Wind. Redwood stood up, buried his mouse and walked on looking for more fresh-kill.

[Fern]

"Oh your such a liar you have no clue what I meant did you?" Winds meowed jumping onto the rock near Redwood.

[Raven]

Redwood stopped dead. "Well, kind of." He admitted. "I'm going to stop doubting myself and instinct is something that comes to you right away. You have to have instinct when you fight." He got down in position to pounce.

[Fern]

"Maybe you did" she mumbled amused turing around melting into the shadows cast from the bear trees

[Raven]

Redwood watched her go and then opened his mouth to smell around. He couldn't smell a thing, but he kind of knew why. It was snowing once again.

[Fern]

Fern picked up her dead rabbit shaking the snow from her pelt she quickly ran back to the rest of her fresh kill. She looked at the sky once more then picked up her pile weighing down her jaw. Shaking herself once more she ran back to camp.

[Fern]

Fern pounced on a rabbit biting it in the neck killing it. She heard a shuffling noise turning he bounced on a rock mouse killing it quickly as well. She added the two to her other fresh kill. She sniffed around finding no other prey scent. Fern picked up her fresh kill "I'll come back later"
