(Omg xD)

Mintpaw widened his eyes as the story went on, gasping at the climax and chuckling at the ending. "Well, I suppose you did learn a lesson." He laughed. "But, I do see that the hawk incident didn't make you afraid of climbing. That's good." The tom added. "Or else, I wouldn't be here right now." He paused for a second, thinking about what he had just said.
All the meanwhile, Mintpaw levied himself up onto the next branch. He could see the songbirds chirping a sweet melody. The prey was only a few paw-lengths away... He could almost feel the winged mass in his mouth. He could nearly feel the warm beat of the feathers against his chest.
Even so, he held back. Just a simple move could make the prey out of his grasp, and make the whole climb for nothing.

(I know XD)

"I sure did learn a lesson that day," Snowpaw let out a small laugh, the ThunderClan she-cats tail flicking slightly. "Nope. As long as theres no hawk's nest in the tree im climbing, im good." She chuckled softly before falling silent, peering down at the birds just one branch below on the other tree. "Ready?" She whispered to the ShadowClanner beside her, smiling all the while.

(@echofur) Limoncello padded through the trees. He was acutely aware of all the scents and smells of other cats, but wasn't afraid. There's no way I can get killed. All those clan cats are too weak to even try anymore!

Echofur paused opening her jaw to drink in the air. She had decided to go hunting by herself. She could smell the thunderpath not far in the distance, its stench making it harder to pinpoint prey. The she-cat moved on moving more towards tallpines, flinching as the inevitable roar of a monster sounded not to far off.

Limoncello moved swiftly through the oaks, confidently putting his paws down on the rich soil. The cat scent was growing stronger, but again he didn't care. So be it. I can fight. The roar of the Thunderpath grew louder with each step, yet still the yellow tom continued on. Suddenly, he spotted a shape up ahead, moving through the pines. Limoncello couched down and crawled onto the undergrowth. Cat!

Mintpaw lowered his head, and began to whisper excitedly. "Yep. Are we just going to jump over?" He asked. The birds were now only a few lengths away, and his paws were itching to pounce onto them. Eyeing the winged prey carefully, Mintpaw steadied himself and prepared for the next move. It would've been a waste of time to climb the tree of the birds flew away anyways, so he would have to make every next move precise.

"Yup." Snowpaw tensed her muscles silently, then sprang forward at the birds. She snagged ones wing in her claws, her other paw reaching up to grab the branch above her. She sunk her claws into the wood, hanging in the air by her paw as she drew the bird to her with her other paw, biting down on its neck and ending it quickly.

Mintpaw watched as Snowpaw fled into the air, landing precisely onto the hazel tree branch and slashing a bird with her mighty paw. Well, now he had no time to waste. The tabby tom fled forwards, soaring in the air for the briefest of seconds. The wind ruffled his long fur slightly, making it a bit messier than usual. Nonetheless, he still managed to land with Snowpaw and hold a gray songbird within his grip. Twitching his lips into a sly smile, Mintpaw watched the prey struggle for a second, and twisted its neck with a snap.

"Great catch, Minty!" Snowpaw purred through the bird that she had in her maw, hauling herself up onto the branch she was hanging from. She steadied herself before grinning. "That was fun."

Echofur scented the air, noticing an unfamiliar scent beneath the stench of the thunderpath. She dropped into a crouch, taking cover in the tall grass ready to attack the trespassing cat. She noticed a yellow tom a few fox lengths away, starring right at her and she shiver slightly.
"Who are you?" She growled, baring her teeth in warning to the stranger cat. "What are you doing on Thunderclap territory?" Echofur stayed low to the ground, ready to attack.
