Rivermist was lying in a shaddy spot with a skinny piece of prey between her paws, Brightpetal had told her to take it but she couldn't eat, so it lay there with her uneaten. Her paws worked the ground as she sat there, she couldn't stay here and do nothing, she wanted to be doing something but there wasn't much for her to do.
She put her nose to the prey, the scent didn't make her mouth water as usual, it didn't feel right to eat alone. Brightpetal spent most time in the nursery with Fernkit, and Tinyear was now eating with Starclan so she had no one to eat with. She prodded the scrawny thing and stared at it, not planning on eating it anytime soon.
