The grey and white shape of Spectrumpaw appeared at the lip of the dark, gloomy Razor Forest. The longlegged apprentice pushed his way through the brambles, his thick coat stopping them from drawing blood. He lifted his nose into the air, his tail flicking slowly from side to side. His shoulders stiffened as a new scent drifted into his nostrils. Chaffinch.
The apprentice dropped into a low crouch and began to stealthily stalk the bird. It dug its beak into the dirt, pulling out what looked like a struggling earthworm before it swallowed it and returned to its search. Spectrumpaw creot closer, licking his lips. When his front paws lay a fox-length away from the bird, he silently pounced on the creature. He smothered its mouth with a paw before it could yelp in fright, and sank his jaws into its feathered throat, killing it easily. Grinning, Spectrumpaw buried his catch and continued to hunt.
