___________________
Giving her leader a nod, Larkswoop instinctively dropped into the hunter's crouch and slunk quietly through the bushes until she was behind the rabbit. Her green eyes were narrowed down to slits as Larkswoop focused on her quarry, though thankfully her pelt blended in with the leaf littered forest floor.
Unsheathing her claws, the warrior waited until she knew the time was right. When it was, she darted out of the bushes with a faint yet sharp hiss, driving the rabbit towards Bumblestar and into the ThunderClan Leader's waiting claws.
Wolfhive had made a decent decision letting this one back in. The warrior went off without argument and Bumblestar shifted, crouching amongst the thick grass as Larkswoop swerved around the the rabbit's blind spot.
The creature spooked and bolted as Larkswoop burst out of her hiding place, and at the last moment caught sight of Bumblestar and tried to veer to the right. But she was faster and she lunged, sinking her teeth into the back of the rabbit's neck with a sharp snap and a cut-off shriek that sent the birds around them fluttering anxiously in the trees before quieting.
Bumblestar straightened up and rolled her shoulders, giving Larkswoop an approving flick of an ear. "Good on you. This'll feed a few kits pretty nicely. I'll cover this so we can get it later, 'n why don't you head off to the far side of the clearing, see if you can find something else? I'll catch up."

With a respectful dip of her head to Bumblestar, Larkswoop opened her jaws to taste the air once she reached the other side of Firefly Cove. The scent of squirrel filled her nostrils at once, and the warrior dropped into the hunter's crouch once more.
Eyes narrowing, Larkswoop pinpointed the squirrel. It was nibbling on a nut just beside the roots of a beech copse. Well, great. This would be tricky. With a flick of her ear, the dusky-brown-and-white she-cat smirked.
It's a shame ThunderClan cats know how to climb just as well as a squirrel does.
The ThunderClanner stalked forward slowly before emerging from the bushes. The squirrel instantly ran up the tree trunk, just as Larkswoop had planned for it to. The she-cat quickened her pace and - without thinking - gracefully jumped up onto the nearest branch without even touching the tree trunk. The squirrel was just a tail length away.
Once Larkswoop jumped up to the next branch, the squirrel was done for. She had grabbed its tail and pulled in backward, trapping it beneath a white-tipped forepaw whilst she lowered her head to sink her teeth in her catch's neck. It may have been quite the chase, but it had been a swift, clean kill. Purring softly in satisfaction, Larkswoop jumped down to the ground and landed gracefully on all four paws.

[ sorry - I had to wash dishes lol. ]
Bumblestar made sure the rabbit was covered up and protected before she lifted her head to watch Larkswoop. The she-cat seemed to be pre-occupied with her own hunt and so Bumblestar decided to give her some space. At this point the golden morning rays were slowly dissipating into a more neutral color, and she made a mental note to finish up soon.
Just as her claws sank into a large blackbird that had tried to escape and pinned it to the grass, a rasping, grating chittering sound bombarded her ears and she looked up again to see a magpie shrieking at Larkswoop from an overhead branch, its wings flapping as it hopped across the bark.
Bumblestar's whiskers twitched and she called, "Yo, you might wanna either grab that thing or start runnin'. Doesn't look too happy!"

Quickly tossing the squirrel at Bumblestar's paws for the Clan Leader to bury, Larkswoop turned to face the magpie.

Larkswoop's eyes narrowed as she saw the magpie visibly relax for a moment, giving the dusky-brown-and-white warrior time to brace herself for impact as it lunged at her.

A snarl twisted the ThunderClanner's maw. She reared onto her hind legs and swiped at the magpie with her paws, claws hooking its flesh through soft feathers. The magpie began to squawk and squawk, but it didn't last long. Larkswoop threw it, making sure that its body slammed into the ground.
Without giving the bird the chance to respond, the she-cat lunged forward and sank her teeth in the magpie's neck, killing it quickly.

Bumblestar took a step back as the squirrel was flung toward her, wrinkling her nose. "Maybe don't toss prey around. Somebody's still gotta eat."
And it was kind of disappointing to watch the bird just get absolutely decimated in three seconds flat. It would have made Bumblestar's day to watch it divebomb Larkswoop's face, and she thought the amount of force used was definitely a bit excessive.
"Gonna be shocked if that thing is still edible," she muttered, eyeing the claw marks that marred the bird's flesh. "Be more careful, no one's gonna want it if it's all torn up 'n then it'll just sit 'n rot."
With a sniff, she picked the squirrel up and went back for the rabbit. The area was already empty - nothing new would be around here for a while. "Give me that magpie," she ordered, taking the blackbird up as well. "I'll carry everything, you lead us somewhere else - maybe the Rise, since the Ruins 'n the Pond are pretty dangerous right now. I'll leave the rest of the hunting to you. This place'll be quiet for a little while after that ruckus."

Larkswoop nodded. ''Sorry,'' She mewed before bounding off in the direction of Willow's Rise.
