❪ TAGS ❫ — The warm morning sun peaked its way through the evergreens, filtering light onto the needle-scattered ground as birds chirped about all around the rather peculiar pair. Slate hadn't necessarily been thrilled at the idea of an apprentice accompanying him on his outing, but he supposed Blazestar's rule made sense — nobody could be certain if the danger of the twolegs had vanished from SkyClan's territory. Who was to say that those ugly beasts would be deterred by the big shelter escape? If anything, it might fuel their desire to capture the wild cats even more.
So, Slate had agreed as long as he had some time to get out and stretch his legs; he had been sulking about in camp and figured that a hunt would help clear his mind. At least Howlpaw wasn't a nuisance... or so Slate had assumed. He didn't know her all too well, really, only that she was Blazestar's daughter. He was somewhat surprised that her father would let her out into the territory so soon after she'd returned from the shelter, but it didn't make sense to keep her cooped up in camp after being cramped in a cage.
The burly Maine Coon caught a whiff of something... a bird of sorts, perhaps. He stopped in his tracks, lifting his nose to the air. "Somethin's close..." He utters under his breath, barely above a whisper so as not to potentially startle off whatever was lurking nearby. One of them would have to attempt to catch it....
