Sleepy Thicket

[Fish]

Adderstrike went out on a short hunt since she was having too much fun recently and needed to get some serious work done. Then she spotted it, a blueberry bush! She took a gleeful walk over from her fruitless hunt to eat some berries. They were close enough to fruits and hopefully it would help her on her hunt, or something.

Dusklion - RiverClan Deputy

Ever since the bodies had been moved to the abandoned den off to the side, but they hadn't yet officially let go of the thicket, the deputy found herself traveling out here. Whether it was her dream with Hawkstar or the history this place held, Dusklion still felt drawn here. It was a good piece of territory, one that provided prey, herbs, and a spot for introspection.

Picking her way over the recently dug up ground the deputy let her jaw part a bit to draw in the scents around her. Prey nearby, some sweet smelling herbs and - oh. What was that...? Curiosity and a new scent had Dusklion turning to inspect a small patch of plants. A pretty purple color and a scent that made her salivate, the deputy drew closer and breathed in. Oh, stars...

Before she knew it the gray deputy was stretching out and rolling onto the the plants, paws in the air like a kit. Something about whatever this plant was (catmint) felt addicting in a sense. The scent of it, even the feel... She twisted and turned, a smile spreading across her face and a purr rumbling from her as she rolled in the patch of plants and -

...Eventually the deputy blinked and scrambled back onto her paws, shaking out her fur. Right. Prey and herbs. That's what she was here for. Figuring she'd bring back whatever these are, Dusklion plucked the (deliciously tasteful) possible herbs and trotted away.

´´Dusklion?´´ Poppyburst muttered softly, green eyes wide with surprise as she watched her Deputy pad off with....catmint? ´´Great StarClan..´´ The tortoiseshell whispered. She´d have to take this to Fadingstar and Berrypaw. It was dangerous to eat too much of the herb. Shaking her head, the small-statured warrior picked up her pace - paused beside the catmint to snatch some of it up for Berrypaw´s herb store - and ran to catch up to Dusklion.

[ + 7 Catmint ]

´´Dusklion, wait!´´ Poppyburst called, her curled ears almost flat against her head and her voice muffled against the catmint between her jaws. Slowing as she approached the RiverClan Deputy - pawsteps silent and blending in with the sounds of the forest, Poppyburst set down the catmint she was carrying (hiding it between her paws so that Dusklion couldn´t get to it) and tipped her head to the side. ´´You´re cheerful,´´ The tortoiseshell warrior commented, knowing that it had been the catmint having Dusklion acting like this. ´´In a good mood, perhaps?´´

“I can fix her!”

Out into the misty spooky area of sleepy thicket. Adderstrike wouldn't admit it but this area did give her the creeps. Yet now it gave her much less of that feel as she knew all of cat bones were moved, at least those the dirt didn't claim forever. So there had to be less ghost right? That made enough sense. With that Adderstrike shook her head, thinking about ghosts all this time would just distract her from her hunt! Get to work you silly little tiger.

"Split up but don't lose line of sight of everyone, ok?" Adderstrike said looking back to the others. Part of her wondered if this was the best idea in the world but then again if all three of them were attached to the hip, then they would never get any prey. So with that she sniffed out the area. Soon enough a scent was caught in the air, the warrior kept her mouth ajar as she stalked the scent.

Squeak squeak. Slipping into a bush, Adderstrike peered out and saw two rats having a fight over something. Territory? Dominance? Did it really matter? She licked her lips as she waited for the perfect moment to get those rats. They looked so tasty that it made waiting for the right moment annoying. Maybe she should have found some scraps to eat before going out hunting? Maybe something that a kit didn't want to finish—Oh!

Adderstrike sprang out and landed on top of the rats right when they were on top of each other. She dug her claws into the bottom on and teeth into the nape of the top one. Which she flung harshly at a nearby tree. She then finished off the bottom rat. Looking to the tree she saw the limp body. Seems like she estimated her growing strength just right. These fat rats had to be enough right?

Rosehawk - RiverClan Warrior

Rosehawk´s ears twitched, her blue gaze flicking over to the dug up graves. She hadn´t liked the idea of moving the bodies - which were likely skeletons by now, but she understood why Dusklion did it.

With a wave of her tail, she mewed to the other two cats. ´´We should meet back here around sunset, surely?´´ The warrior´s eyes turned to Adderstrike. Opening her jaws slightly to taste the air, Rosehawk ducked through the undergrowth.

Catching the scent of squirrel - two of them, to say the least, the RiverClanner instantly pinpointed them and crouched. She stalked forward slowly.

[ Rosehawk rolled a 20 - Successful Catches, Clean Kills ]

Springing, Rosehawk landed on one and snapped its neck with a claw to throat whilst her other forepaw pinned the second squirrel to the ground, sinking her jaws into its spine, killing it instantly.

[ + 2 Squirrels ]

Thank you, StarClan, for this prey.

Burying her catches to collect later, Rosehawk padded off in search of more prey.
