─ ─ Tiny limbs move slow and steady across the camp — with all the careful stealth of a true warrior of tigerclan. His prey remains utterly unaware, minding its buisness, utterly oblivious to the hunter in persuit. He pauses, judging the distance... surely, this is close enough. Best not to give himself away. Haunches wriggle, muscles tense, and he pounces— momentum carrying him forwards in one swift motion as he strikes.

Paws slam down upon his 'prey' with a holler of success, smile beaming wide. "

Gotcha!

" paws moves carefully, uncupping ever so slowly as hil3 blinks against the suns glare - and there it is, pinned by kitten-soft paws. The grasshoper wriggles and squirms, humming angrily where its pinned, half-squished.

Rainbowkit takes a moment to enjoy the sight of his prey — his first successful hunt! — before kitten teeth are chomping down with a loud CRUNCH.

[Wavesong]

And that's why we share all we have with you
Though there's little to be found
When all you've got is nothing
There's a lot to go around

.

Wavesong watched the child with a tender softness in her eyes, the corners of her mouth curled into a smile that could rival sunshine. Her thick, feathered tail swished across the grass, slow and deliberate, as she finally allowed herself to settle onto the earth. It was more difficult to ignore now, the gentle swell of her belly, the subtle weight of her unborn kits shifting within her. She still tried to accompany patrols, to offer help where she could, but she knew the time was nearing. Soon she'd have to exchange freedom for stillness, trade the wind in her fur for moss and quiet. She wasn't ready for that, not truly. Wavesong was a creature of motion, of story, of living flame. To be made to wait? It went against every wave in her soul. But she would do it, for them.

Her thoughts were swept away the moment she caught sight of Rainbowkit's pounce, his tiny form darting with enthusiasm and determination. A thrill of pride rose in her chest, and her voice rang out like a bell across the clearing. " Well done! " she hollered, her tone warm and radiant, enough to lift even the cloudiest mood. " Yer doin' mighty fine, gonna make yerself a grand warrior one day, mark my words! " Her grin stretched wide, eyes gleaming like riverstones catching sunlight. In that moment, with the young kit triumphant and wild with joy, she could forget her aches. She could forget the bitterness and the shadows that clung to RiverClan's edges. There was hope here, in little hearts and little paws. And in that hope, she could rest a while.

[Rainpaw]

Rainpaw padded into camp following behind Jinglemoon, carrying a bundle of herbs in her mouth. The two of them had been busy trying to restock their herb stores since ShadowClan's heist. She was still so confused as to why they didn't just ask if they needed help. She shook her head trying to clear the thought, there was no use dwelling on it now. She then turned to Jinglemoon handing over the bundle of herbs. "I'm gonna grab something to eat! I'll help you sort the new herbs in a bit, okay?" She said with a smile to her mentor.

Trotting over to the freshkill pile she grabbed three small minnows by their tails. Turning around she looked for a nice sunny spot to eat her lunch before she spotted Wavesong. Wiggling her tail with excitement as she trotted over to the queen. "Hi Wavesong..!" She chirped as she noticed a small gray and white kit eating a bug. Lifting the fur from her face to get a better look at the kit she realized it was Rainbowkit who was eating the bug. Sitting down next to Wagesong and Rainbowkit she purred, "Did you catch that? If so, nice catch!" She said with a smile, before taking a bite of one of the minnows she had gotten from the freshkill pile.

─ ─ Wavesong is the first to approach him and his prize — ears wiggle as she speaks, two-toned eyes wide with pride. The glittering gleam of the sun is a bit bothersome as head tilts back, blinking up at the warrior, head bobbing enthusiasticly at the praise. "

I- I- I- I'm gonna b-be the best!

" Rainpaw shows up next, and he nods and hums jus lt as proudly. "

Mhm... all m-mine!

" he rocks on his paws, tail swishing — he's clearly gonna be the best warrior ever someday.

[JUNCOPAW]

Juncopaw cannot possibly admit to anyone out loud that training as an apprentice is harder than it had sounded. The jumping and running and tumbling around she had done in camp as a kit cannot compare to touring the entire territory of RiverClan, strengthening borders, practicing battle moves, and catching prey. The tiredness that seeps into her muscles is a welcome feeling, for it means she had done a good job all things considered, so she enjoys the feeling of settling beside a juicy fish and sharing tongues with her Clanmates.

Before she can pick out something particularly appetizing from the fresh-kill pile, Juncopaw's attention sways—it's predictable, really. But who can ignore a small kit's first attempts at hunting? And it's a successful attempt, too!

Juncopaw trots over to Rainbowkit, her own meal all but forgotten.

"Are you gonna eat that?"

she says in lieu of a hello or praise. Both Wavesong and Rainpaw had offered their compliments already, so Rainbowkit surely gets the memo. Juncopaw is much more interested in what Rainbowkit is planning next with the poor grasshopper that just wants to go home. Her tail curls with curiosity.

"I mean, I can't imagine it tastes very good, but you never know until you don't try..."
