Bouncepaw is tired. He trudges to the fresh kill pile after some training and practicing, stretching, about to rest. So many hunting lessons, and he was still a less than mediocre hunter. Bouncepaw sighs. It's to the point that he feels embarrassed and ashamed to even take something to eat from the prey pile without contributing much, though he won't say it, only taking the smallest and stale morsels due to guilt. Bouncepaw pads forward, mind still complicated, when he hears a loud commotion in the clearing. It was loud, noisy, and the sound of a squeaky... kit? Or was this an apprentice?
He blankly looks at the scene. First at the squashed fresh kill pile, then Leopardsong, then at the kit who's busy running away from the queen. She was pretty big, just a little younger than him, perhaps? Bouncepaw is startled as she rushes past and nearly bumps into him. A subtle stink enters his nostrils, as if...
He glances back over at the squashed prey pile, and feels a subtle anger go over him that he has to calm down. He had so much trouble trying to feed his Clan and help in any way he could, and these cats were ruining everyone's hard work. Catching prey wasn't easy, and not only that, it took a life. Prey deserved respect. These kits only appeared a few months younger than him, too, which only made things worse. Surely they would know better.
But Bouncepaw's anger disspates quickly. Not only was Leopardsong already on their tail, Bouncepaw wasn't a very angry cat by nature. He only feels frustrated. He sighs and gets to work cleaning up the prey pile and reorganizing it, then he takes the more broken pieces of prey to eat himself.
