Letting out a breath she hadn't realized she'd been holding, Mistfall breathed a sigh of relief. That rabbit was giving her a run for her expertise and almost embarrassed her in front of the other hunters. Luckily she'd managed to reassert dominance and snapped the rabbit up in her jaws. Hiding her freshkill, Mistfall turned her attention back to scanning for more prey around her. The fluttering of wings landing on a lower section of branches caught her ear. Flicking her ears in that direction, she listening and stalked in that direction. She couldn't see the bird exactly yet, but she knew it was there.

As a reminder:
- There will be a five-round system where we will roll dice for each cat participating. The results will be as follows:
* 1-5 = automatic fail; you miss the catch.
* 6-10 = you catch one piece (and perhaps not as smoothly as you'd want).
* 11-15 = you catch two pieces! look at you!
* 16-20 = you catch three pieces, wowza!
**Note: if you have the Ultimate Predator purrk, your dice will be rolled twice! The better outcome of the two will be chosen. Please notify us if you have this purrk if it's not listed on your header/posts!**
- But beware! Not all numbers are as they seem... some random numbers between 1-20 have been chosen as 'trapped'. Rolling these digits might land you in a rather inconvenient situation. Each group will have different 'trapped' numbers. Perhaps the dice will be kind to you? Perhaps not...
- This will be a semi-fast-paced event where we will be wanting to roll every 2-3 days to keep it moving, so if you're participating, please be ready to respond! No post means no dice rolls, so if there isn't one, we will skip over you for that roll.
Oh! Oh!! He was excited, alright. There it was, the mice under his claws. He'd finally done something! After days of practice and failing so many times, for once, his practice has come to fruition. Of course, he'd remember what happened with the lizard... so before the little pale calico can celebrate any further, he'd made his kill.
Palepaw found a space to bury his prey before continuing his hunt. He looked back just a couple of times to remember the spot. Hopefully, he'll be able to find his way back. What's next? His paws are a little jittery, aching to give hunting another try. He closed his eyes, and sniffed around with ears open for any sounds.
Some sort of rustling gave way in the depths. It was a strange noise, not one he'd heard of. On closer inspection, this critter was weird... It was little, long bodied, smooth and it had no legs. Palepaw remembered some older cats calling him snakes, but he'd been too afraid to try them. They...don't look very tasty.
Should he give this one a try? He'd never learned how to hunt a snake before. It shouldn't be so different than a lizard...right? Palepaw dropped into a crouch and moved forward towards the snake.
