Looking at Freepaw,"She seems to be excited..."purring with amuzement, "Well we might want to follow her..." Opalpaw then dashed off without waiting for Freepaw's response,"Come on Freepaw, hurry up!" Opalpaw could feal the wind going through her fur as she ran, It is really nice out today, she thought. Running as fast as she could through the trees, she catches up with Maplepaw, and zooms past her.

Freepaw looked around and then dashed off with great speed and caought up with the apprentices and then ran right passed them out of camp and the next thing Freepaw knew was that she smelt rabbit....'yummy' she thought. Freepaw tracked the rabbit and finaly caught up to and crouched and was ready to punce....Freepaw punced and killed the pray and then ran back and put it on the fresh kill pile then went and cought up with the others.

"You work fast!" Opalpaw meowed as she watched Freepaw catch the rabbit. I wish I could hunt like that...."Hey Freepaw, do you think you could show me how to do that? And I think Maplepaw would like it too." Turning towards Maplepaw, "Do you want to know as much as I do, how she did that?"

"It is simple really. When you scent the kill, you walk really slow and quietly to find it and when you do you crouch realy low and the carefully not to make any noise check your surounding in front of you and then Fastly punce and kill your pray." Freepaw said all of that with a smiel on her muzzel. 'It is rally simple if you practice likie I do' Freepaw thoght.

Smelling the air, "I smell rabbit!" The thought of it made her mouth water. "Well I am going to see if I can catch it." Opalpaw followed the scent, after finding the rabbit, Opalpaw got down into what seemed like a hunter's crouch to her. Slowly stalked toawrds the rabbit, and pounced. She missed it by what seamed like the length of a mouse. "Mouse dung!" turning back towards Freepaw and Maplepaw, "Maplepaw, you try!"

"Ok i will! and i will catch it to!" She added with a friendly nudge. Maplepaw sented the air and then hissed softly, "Another rabbit!" So she got into a hunters crouch and found it was comming out of it's burow. Easy prey! She thought. But as she was stalking it her fur brushed up agensted a braken and the rabbit raced back to its burrow. "Fox dung!" She spat! turning to Freepaw she asked, "How did you do it so good?" Why can't i do it like that! I knew the braken was there!

"Ok watch me" Freepaw smelled the air "Mouse" She waked forward smelling the trail and she found the mouse. She crouched down into a hunters crouch and the snuck up AFTER CECKING her surroundings. She got low to the ground and then punced and cought the mouse. "Here it a nice fat rat. you two can hav it i don't eat rats." Freepaw laid the rat in front of the she-cats and nudged it so they would eat.

A cool breeze blew across Jetmoon's whiskers as the tom crouched in the boughs of an oak tree. He had been observing the squirrels, knowing that if he watched them long enough, maybe he might get an idea of when they came out so he could catch some of them and bring them back as fresh-kill for the Clan. Mousebrain! Just testing his vigilance, he told himself, seeing if he was patient enough to observe something like that, and actually complete the task of retrieving the squirrels. His ink-black fur ruffled in the breeze.
Just when he felt that the squirrel would never emerge, it did. Poking a brown head out of the tree, it looked around for a second, unawares of the tomcat that crouched on a branch just above it. It was a comical figure, the ebony-pelted tom waiting like doom right above the squirrel. Waiting a few moments, he watched it with observant leaf-green eyes, inquisitive. It was about to look up when suddenly he pounced, extending his claws.
He clipped it on its head, and it toppled from the tree at about the same time Jetmoon did. The warrior caught it, ending its life, but he fell with a thud! into another cat, a she-cat with gray and slightly brown fur. The squirrel dropped to the ground next to the tom, and he jumped off of her with a start, grinning sheepishly. "Er, sorry," Jetmoon meowed hastily. "Just... getting that squirrel..." Geez, awkward...

Freepaw turned around and said"Who are you and why did you just attak my freind. Opalpaw are you ok sweety?" Freepaw looked really worried her friend had just been landed on by a Tom that fell from the sky."Her let me help you up Opalpaw." Freepaw walked over and put her head under her friend and helped her up. "Are you going to be ok?" A look of concern crossed Freepaw's face befor she got angry.'I hate my temper' Freepaw thought but she couldn't countroll it. She pounced on the Tom and then noticed how cute he was. 'What am I doing she thought I like NIGHTPAW I don't even know this Tom' Freepaw got up and said "Sorry you made me mad. And for starclans sake watch were you are falling next time. Gezz"

Looking at how protective Freepaw was being, She is a really good friend, "Freepaw get off of him, he landed on me on accident, he was just looking at the squirrels!" She looked at how Freepaw was looking at the tom, Oh gosh, not again...she can't like that tom without knowing him, besides she likes Nightpaw too much.

"Freepaw, what the name of Starclan are you doing? He didn't lay a paw on you! Opalpaw can take care of her self I think." what is Jetmoon doing out here anyway? I thought he was on potrol. "Well shouldn't we get back to hunting? We have prey to catch for the elders, if you hadn't forgotan. Bye Jetmoon!" Maplepaw dashes away from the group. Seeing the way that Freepaw was looking at Jetmoon started to make her cerious of what she had missed. And seeing Opalpaws reaction something has to be up. What did i miss?

"Well Maplepaw has a point....you can stay behind if you want Freepaw but I am going with Maplepaw to hunt, we will trying to get food for the elders using your technique." Looking back at Freepaw, giving her the 'What in the name of Starclan are you doing, he is warrior and you just tackled him' look. "Let's go Maplepaw!"

"It's a very long story" Actually it isn't really I just don't feal like telling the entire thing to Maplepaw, it might embarrass Freepaw... "I smell mouse" trying to change the subject. Opalpaw spotted the mouse, got down into hunter's crouch and pounced. When she felt the mouse under her paws she bit and killed it, "Wow, that is the first thing I have ever caught!" she said with excitement.
