The ancient maple.

PoppyClaw smirked at DarkLuck, but returned to hunting. She spotted a large blue jay in a tree. She climbed the tree, making sure to stay silent. Moving slowly but swiftly, she reached te branch where the bird sat. She crept as close as she could, pouncing on the bird. She grasped the bird lightly in her jaws. Jumping down, she retrived her earlier catch, a fish, and returned to camp.

She Darted in, and dropped into a hunter's crouch, Moving forwards to a vole. She Leaped up, Landing Perfectly by the vole, Killing it with a swift bite. She Grabbed it, and Darted back to the camp.

Watches her leave and then stalks a squirrel, swipes a paw at its neck and kills it within a few seconds. Looks around then rushes back to the border.

Spottedheart padded in, scenting the air. She then dropped into a perfect hunter's crouch and leaped forward, dispatching a thrush in a quick nip.

RuffledStorm padded by.

Spottedheart sighed, wishing she had a family, mate, and kits. She laid her head on her paws and stared at the starry night sky.
