THIS IS AN IMPORTANT PLOT THREAD! It is open to any ThunderClanner and SkyClanner AS LONG AS YOUR CAT WILL FIGHT IN THIS SKIRMISH. Obviously, no kits. IF YOUR CHARACTER WOULD NOT FIGHT IN THIS BATTLE DO NOT PUT THEM IN HERE!
That said. :D
A ThunderClan hunting patrol chases a ThunderClan squirrel into SkyClan territory and catches it. Feel free to be the ThunderClanner who caught the squirrel. The oncoming SkyClan patrol wouldn't know if it was a ThunderClan squirrel or not--they just see a cat from another Clan on their territory with prey.

They are early into leafbare, but it's hard, it's so hard already. As a kit in the nursery, she never had to go to bed hungry. Milk and bits of fresh meat were always available to her siblings and the other kits. She never had to worry about being too cold, never had to feel those pangs in her stomach that get a little worse each day. Now there's snow blanketing the earth, and her paws sink up to the ankle as she trudges after @WOLFWIND on their hunting patrol.
They'd found nothing so far. She's fretful in her head, thinking terrible thoughts about how all their prey has burrowed under the earth, into warm nests, leaving them nothing to eat at all. Dark thoughts best left unspoken.
But what seems like hours stretch on. Morningpaw's paw pads are burning and freezing at the same time. She gives Wolfwind numerous anxious looks, wondering -- will they keep going until they find something? Will that be forever? She shakes frost out of her thick coat, anxiety clear in blue eyes.
It's a few heartbeats after this chilling thought that one of her Clanmates bolts after something. Russet-colored, small and swift. A squirrel! She thinks nothing of it as her Clanmate crosses the border into SkyClan, teeth firmly clenched around the squirrel's neck.
And why would she notice? The border is a formality to her, to her family. She gives a sigh of relief and cheers for her Clanmate, "Good catch!" She does not notice the crunch of snow alerting them to approaching pawsteps -- a SkyClan patrol, heading their way.
