Hunting

[Hunting]

Fernpelt headed over to the water's edge. She didn't fancy fishing right now, so she decided to look somewhere else.

OOC: Sorry, another rubbish post!

_{Ravencurse stalked after her and leaped forward, plunging deep into the water, his eyes remained open and prickled slightly under the water. He snapped his jaws down on the nearest fish before emerging out the water again and smashing its head on a rock. The fish stopped its moving and Ravencurse flung it onto the shore, he dove in and caught another two fishes. He brought them out and lay them by Fernpelt, his frail body looking worse than ever. His wet pelt shown off each bone in his body, making him look sickly, the only weight upon his was the one of his hard heavy muscles.}

[SHADE. :D]

Spectrumpaw crept up on the mouse, his fluffy grey paws making no soung on the crunchy white snow. He was about to pounce when he spotted Ravencurse and Fernprlt. His pelt bristled slightly. He padded forwards a little and the mouse, terrified, darted away. The grey-and-white apprentice licked a paw, pale blue eyes confused. What was going on between Ravencurse and Fernpelt? His lips drew back in a hiss. If they were in love, fine... AS long as they didn't go having kits. Female deputies, by the warrior code, were forbidden to have kits. But then again, hunting together was nothing, it meant nothing... Did it?

Fernpelt looked shocked at the sight of Ravencurse's frail body. 'Well done.' she said, pointing at the fish. She walked away some distance and picked up the scent of a rabbit. She saw she was downwind of it and caught it easily. She brought it back and put it beside the fish.

[SHADE. :D]

Spectrumpaw sat down, fluffy grey tail curled over his grey paws. He licked his nose idly; it seemed that Ravencurse was treating Fernpelt with the same frostiness he treated everyone; except Spectrumpaw. He remembered having first met his uncle, and sighed a little. HE couldn't help feeling just a little jealous that Ravencurse was spending time with some cat other than him, but he quickly shook off this selfishness: Ravencurse was his friend.

[fernie. (:]

It was at that minute that the wind changed and Fernpelt picked up another cat's scent. She whirled around and raced forward a little. Behind a tall tree sat Spectrumpaw, eyes on her. 'What are you doing there? Were you spying on us hunting?' Fernpelt asked, wondering why, when they were doing nothing wrong.

[SHADE. :D]

Spectrumpaw hissed in fright when he saw Fernpelt. His hackles raised and his grey and white fur bristled angrily, but flattened again as he dipped his head in grudging respect. He looked up at her ruefully, blue eyes cold. "I wasn't spying," he hissed, having picked up some of his uncle's iciness. "Just hunting. Or is that forbidden now?"

[fernie. (:]

'Calm down! If you were hunting, where's your prey? You must've caught something...' Fernpelt scanned the moss at his feet for freshkill.

[SHADE. :D]

Spectrumpaw narrowed his eyes at her. "I was after a mouse, but it got away. Then I sat down to rest, and then you came along and started accusing me of spying on you." He looked furious.

_{The sickly looking cat merely blinked boredly as the two had a short lasted argument. Rolling his eyes slowly he got up and sat next to Spectrumpaw. "Will you two stop acting like kits" he barked, sinking his teeth into the fish and chewing rather idly.}

[fernie. (:]

'Oh I've had enough of this. I'm going back to camp.' Fernpelt grabbed half of the freshkill and stalked off. She got back to camp just as a patrol was leaving. She put the fresh kill on the pile and went over to the warriors den. She decided to go inside and see who was in there. Unfortunately, the den was empty. She really needed someone to talk to, as Ravencurse had been right, she'd acted like a kit. That wasn't what deputies were supposed to do. She was supposed to sort out arguments, not start them. She had let herself down today, and all she could do to stop herself yowling in dismay was curl into a disturbed sleep.
OOC: Yeah, she wasn't acting like a deputy today...I think I was having an off day! ^^

[SHADE. :D]

Ooc; I'll make a post in the camp where Amethyststar can talk to her, OK? ^^
Bic; Spectrumpaw dipped his head to Ravencurse sheepishly, and flicked his tail in silent apolegy to Fernpelt. He then disdainfully watched the deputy stalk away like a spolit kit, and his lip automatically curled. "I thought she was meant to be deputy!" he hissed, f;icking his ears.

_{Ravencurse turned to him and chuckled before getting up, his wet frail form lit up under the moonlight. "Come these follow her anyways, help me bring this pray back to camp" he mewed, prodding at one of the silvery scaled fishes.}

[SHADE. :D]

"OK," mewed the grey and white apprentice, picking up two of the plump fish in his maw. He acted like Ravencurse was his mentor though currently he did not have one. His previous mentor, Waterheart, had recently and mysteriously been found dead in the warriors' den, and he missed her terribly.

OOC: Ok
