"Sure, what are we making?" Bouncepaw meows, gathering some extra mud from the ground, and searching for suitable stones. "Maybe something simpler?" His meow has a challenging and teasing tone to it, "Wouldn't want to make another squashed squirrel."

Daffodilpaw nudged her brother with her shoulder and gently batted his ear with a sheathed paw playfully. “Rude!” She meowed with a laugh. Then she looked at their gathered supplies thoughtfully. “Hmmm…an obstacle course?” She suggested. “Oh! Or a fox? A badger? A hare?” She prattled off ideas as they came to her, looking to Bouncepsw expectantly. Then her eyes glittered mischievously. “Or maybe a squirrel?”

"Sure, a squirrel. Maybe if we're lucky it'll look like a cat." Bouncepaw starts gathering dirt and stones with his paws, and searches for an acorn he can use to help make the sculpture more real. Squirrels were always around acorns, weren't they? He sniffs the air, eyes taking in the fallen oak leaves, scanning for a nut, then he stops. The small sound of scrabbling paws and rushed, tiny breathing.
Bouncepaw drops into a crouch. If he's lucky, he might get a real squirrel right now.

Daffodilpaw laughed at her brother, dipping her paw in some fresh mud and flinging it at him playfully. “You’re so mea!” She mewed playfully. She didn’t really feel that way of course. She was busy gathering some leaves to add the texture of fur, shaking her mud-dipped paw when a leaf got stuck to her.
Then she noticed her brother suddenly drop down. She focused her gaze and spotted the squirrel right away. Daffodilpaw instinctively crouched like Elkjump showed her, lowering her tail so it wasn’t visible but keeping it off the ground. She glanced at Bouncepaw and blinked slowly at him, letting him know it was his catch. She slowly crept around the squirrel in a wide circle, positioning herself where she might be able to catch the squirrel in case it ran from Bouncepaw. Every sense intently focused on their target.

Bouncepaw doesn't reply- he's completely focused on his crouch. He lowers his body, places his paws forward, and carefully avoids stepping on any leaves or branches while getting closer to his prey. He's so focused that even Daffodilpaw's blinking doesn't register in his brain. Bouncepaw pounces.
[Bouncepaw rolls a 20]
Bouncepaw has zero hesitation as he jumps on his prey and kills it in one bite. His form isn't perfect, but he's lucky today, and his catch is slow and dumb. His prey twitches one last time. Bouncepaw lets go and prods it carefully. "Is it dead?" He asks dumbly.

Daffodilpaw leapt to her paws when Bouncepaw made his catch, bounding over with a purr. “Great catch, Bounce!” She purred. She let out a mrrrow of laughter when he dropped the squirrel. “Yes of course!” She mewed, still trying to stifle the laugh from her voice. “It’s not unusual for prey to give one final twitch like that.” She added, her voice more even now. “Don’t forget to give thanks to StarClan for providing!” She reminded him, raising her tail to show her insistence. She was not going to take no for an answer, and she knew that Bouncepaw was aware of how serious she took her faith.

Oh, right. Since Bouncepaw is now relieved that his catch won't suddenly run off, and he sits and starts praying to Starclan. It's his first time, what should he say?
'I thank Starclan for this catch I made today,' Bouncepaw tries to think, 'And I give thanks to the squirrel and the forest for giving a life to feed our clan. I shall only take as much as I need, and I shall give all I can.'
Was that good enough? Bouncepaw opens his eyes and glances around. It takes a while for the news to sink in. He caught a squirrel. He. Caught. His. First. Prey. His expression slowly lights up like a Christmas tree. Oh boy, was he telling Bluestrike. His mentor would be so proud.
"Thanks, Daffodilpaw!" Bouncepaw meows, picking up the squirrel in his mouth. He bounces over to the fresh kill pile.

Daffodilpaw purred after her brother, nodding in approval at his prayer. "That was very good!" She purred. She watched him skip away and couldn't help thinking how cute Bouncepaw could be when he was excited. She giggled. Then turned to look at their gathered materials.
Oh well. She wouldn't be surprised if Bounce went to show their parents and his mentor his catch. She jabbed her paw in the mud and starting absentmindedly painting different random designs, a content purr rumbling in her chest.
Rock? Seedling wanted the biggest rock? Then the biggest rock Seedling was going to get. "Mkay, Seedkit." The eldest of the miracle litter yawned, the motion showing off her sharp fangs, and then she clamped her jaw shut with an audible click.
"Strawberry will help you find the biggest rock." With Frostkit and Jaggedkit doing dumb boy things like tussling, and Seedkit safely in Cardinalkit's view, Strawberrykit wandered off on her own, bright blue gaze flitting from cat to cat - or more accurately, from rock to rock, not caring for the owners of said rock.
Eventually she found it. The largest rock of all - hey! A kit had taken it from the pile before she could! That was Seedling's rock! Marching over, the one-moon-old stared down the 'thief' with a mighty scowl. (Honestly, she didn't even know their name). "This Seedkit rock!" She informed them, and then bent her head, picking it up in her jaws, whipping around, and toddling off without another word.
Back to Seedling. "Eedkiy! A'dinalkiy!" Strawberrykit called as she neared her sisters, voice muffled around the object in her maw. And once she'd put it down, the speckled kitten grinned. "Rock."

Sweetkit stared, blinking and letting the kit take the rock. "Rude" She whispered to herself. Sweetkit blinked again, flicking her small white tail upwards as her light ginger pelt shimmered. Her eyes showing insecurity. Why did they snatch her rock like she did something wrong? Oh well...... "Greymist!" Sweetkit called. "Mommy!!!!!!!!!!!" as she ran back into the nursery, stumbling over her older sister Maplekit.
