The mouse was 6 tail-lengths ahead of her. She ran to a tree that was 4 tail lengths from the mouse. She kept her tail down to the ground but not too low for it to brush against leaves. Almost there, she thought. She padded a little more forwards then stopped and found herself a tail length away from the mouse. Nightshadow leaped but the mouse saw her and it started to run away from her claws. The amber eyed she-cat gave chase. The mouse was quick and turned the other way. Nightshadow ran quicker and cut the mouse off of her trail, took it by her front claws and killed it with one nip to the back of it's neck.
Breathing heavy she looked to everyone else watching her. Oh, Nightshadow, you couldn't have done better than that? she thought. The black she-cat took the mouse in her jaws and padded back to Mistyfang's side. |

”At least we have something,” Mistyfang meowed, lightening the mood.
“Every bit helps. And there’s got to be some prey around here.” he walked forward, swishing his thick tail. He looked around, acknowledging the chilly breeze.
“We’ll get through it.” he said suddenly.
“Just like every other leaf-bare.” Everything was silent for a moment as they focused on tracking prey. Mistyfang padded up to Duskfern and brushed his pelt against hers for warmth. He purred.
