Hunting with Owlheart

[Rainstar]

Riverstar came to the river. She sat and waiting for Owlheart, peering at the silvery fish int he water, eager to start.

[Owlheart]

Owlheart emerged beside her leader and sat, tail wrapped around her paws. She too stared into the river and watched the flowing fish. She wasnt as hungry as Rainstar, but came along anyway.

[Rainstar]

"There you are," Rainstar said, ""let's start!" Rainstar held a paw over the water, picking a fish and watching it. When it came close to her paws position above it, she swiped and hooked the fish. It lay on the riverbank, flopping. Ranstar quickly dispatched it.

[Owlheart]

Owlheart decided to be a bit braver this time. She took a deep breath and plunged her head into the rushing river. Under the water, she opened her jaws. She was not expecting the current to be so strong. It surprised her. She bolted her head out of the water and shook her fur, fishless.

[Rainstar]

Rainstar peered at her deputy and sighed. She can be odd sometimes she thought. She waited for Owlheart to try again until she started to eat her fish.

[Owlheart]

Embarrassed by the previous encounter, Owlheart simply put her paw in the river and swiped a fish out. She took her fish to the surface, "Rainstar, if you wish, you can have my fish also."

[Rainstar]

"No thank you, Owlheart. if you do not wish to eat it, put it in the fresh-kill pile back at camp." Looking away, Rainstar started to eat her fish. She hadnt had fish in awhile, and it tasted delicoius. Swiping her jaws after she was done, she looked again to Owlheart.

[Owlheart]

"I will do that," Owlheart replied to her leader's orders. "What would you like to do now, Rainstar?"

[Rainstar]

"we may aswell go back to camp."
