Live a little ~Jasper-Shock~

Her tail flicking, further and further into the trees the young warrior slid. Calico fur ruffled against the remainders of leafbare chill, Shockflare glared ahead, trying to sense movement, to see prey. A small shuffle made her prick her ears and quietly turn, but it was just a scrawny little bird fluttering off. The clan needed plump voles and mice, stuff like that. Waiting for what seemed like ages StarClan obviously took mercy and sent a vole scuttling past the still feline. Quick as a whip, claws thrust out and grabbed the small creature. Scanning it, and thanking her clanmates ancestors (not truly her own, she knew) Shockflare nodded and smiled a tiny bit.

"Plump... It will feed the clan well..." There she went, talking to herself. It maddened the rest of the clan, who were still shaking the ice off their fur. Suppressing a purr the warrior looked at her fluffy pelt. The fact it stuck out was good for something at least. She always appeared bigger than she was and stayed nice and warm. Too warm in greenleaf but in those times she permitted herself a small dip in the creek. Hding the vole Shockflare stood and began bounding off deeper into the woods. Coming across the scents of other clans she wisely turned back. Hallowstar would kill her if she stirred up trouble with the other clans. Heading back to the camp, the small female caught the scent of a mouse. Smirking she leapt out into a clearing right on the rodent. It squeaked a bit but was dead as son as she nipped it. Scurrying to her vole, catching the nice, still warm smell, she uncovered it. Taking both the creatures by the tail Shockflare began padding back to camp. The sunshine catching her fur just right and sending it sparkling.

It's a new day, it's a bright day, even when you stand in the dark

Repetitively the amber patched tom plucked and dropped, plucked and dropped. Picking up each piece of dirty moss and arranging it into a pile just outside of the warriors den. It was a boring, monotonous task which he resented doing, but never would he complain. All of the warriors above him in ranks had done it at some point in their live, even Hallowstar, so it was simply his turn to clean out the dirty nests. Then one day when he was a senior warrior it would be other apprentices who changed his nest for him. Once all of the dirty bedding was in a palely he grabbed a large mouthful of it and padded out to the forest to return it to its natural habitat, where it would become part of the forest again. He had to admit despite the task the fact that the simple cycle of taking the moss and returning it was a little bit interesting, either that or he was so bored doing this task daily that he had to find some way to make it interesting. Dropping it neatly in a bundle at the base of a tree, he spread it about with one paw before returning back to camp to take the next lot of dirty moss out to the forest.

As the long-legged tom pranced gracefully back into the camp the scent of fresh prey filled his nose and he could feel his mouth watering. With new leaf came lovely, fresh, plump prey and he couldn’t get enough of it. Every juicy meal he had now he was grateful for compared to the scrawny, crunchy meals everyone had to endure through the lead bare. ”Good morning Shockflare, have a good hunt?” He asked brightly with a warm smile, eyeing the fresh prey out of the corner of his eye. His tummy begged him to go and take a piece but he was an apprentice and he knew his place in the clan and he knew that others had to eat before himself, especially the elders. ”That sure looks like some nice plump prey.” He added, and then inwardly scolded himself as he tried to distract himself from food.

”Good morning Shockflare, have a good hunt?”
Freezing as a voice sounded in her ears, she turned and blinked slowly at Jasperpaw. Setting the prey down the patched she-cat considered answering the tom. Deciding on politeness, Shockflare dipped her head and set down her prey.

"Good morning to you as well, Jasperpaw. Yes, my hunting did go well." Noticing how he eyed the prey she silently snickered. It was indeed nice and plump. Green eyes flashing with amusement she nodded to his second comment. "Yes, it is. Very lucky for me that I caught them. I think StarClans in a good mood today."
