A glimmer of scales catches his eye, and he inwardly groans; this was supposed to be just a leisurely swim to clear his mind, nothing more. He wanted to ignore it and carry on, but his old mentor would box his ears if she'd known he had passed up an opportunity.
Morningfrost pivoted in the water and dove under the waves, grabbing on to the carp's tail and pulling it up towards the surface. Just as he took a breath of air, the fish reared its head up, knocking him hard against his jawbone.
He hissed in pain as his nails glided off the scales. The carp slips away from his grasp, flailing along the surface, heading downstream. Morningfrost swam after it, but there was already a strong distance between them. At least the carp hadn't noticed the cats swimming where it’s heading.
"There is an injured fish heading toward you on your left!"
