me & the devil ⚘ Hunting Patrol

[Dandelionwish]

His patrol consisted of, well...honestly cats he didn't know well. Wobbledog was an oddly named cat rescued from the shelter who had an expression like he just scented something foul at all times. Duskpool was nice enough but had an unfortunate tendency to keep getting himself hurt or into troublesome situations and Bananasplash was a newly made warrior who was once a daylight warrior if he recalled but he wasn't even sure why she wasn't now anymore. Two-legs truly were horrible things weren't they? His mind kept drifting to how many new cats there were in the clan who would need to be taught customs and rules, who needed to learn to hunt and fight; and suddenly he feels so much more like a Skyclanner than he ever did before, because he would be helping with it. He was leading patrols, he was going to assist Wobbledog here especially in hunting techniques. It was warming, but at the same time dreadful because the shelter had been a tragedy from the start. They had lost Daisyflight, Sheepcurl and Grizzlyridge were also still missing as well. Dandelionwish was glad all these new cats were freed and able to go about their lives, but the cost had been heavy. Heavier for some more than others as well. He hook his head, brushed the throughts away and turned to address his little hunting party with a smile, "What say we make a little contest, ya think? Most prey 'fore we head back wins? Reckon we try workin' in pairs? Ah can take Wobbledog 'ere and show'em the ropes. Ye other two head the opposite way, just in case we accidentally scare one another's catches and make a mess'o things."
With a name like Wobbledog he wasn't expect the most skilled hunting prowess, better to assure they bring something back than nothing at all; so splitting up seemed reasonable enough.

Oh, hunting.... Another skill he needed to brush up on because of that accursed shelter. He had stretched before the patrol, loosened his muscles and prepared to spend the day with cats he didn't know. They seemed fine enough, he could manage. He was more of a loner, but life liked to force him into situations that turned everything upside down. One day, he hoped he could find peace.

The pine forest was a welcome home, he enjoyed the smell and the feeling of the soft ground beneath his paws as opposed to the hot stone of the twolegplace. Hunting would be better out here. Plus, whatever he caught wouldn't be questionable!

Dandelionwish suggests a contest. He doesn't mind at first, but then he says he wants to show him the ropes. What, did he think he was incompetent? It was his name, wasn't it. The name given to him by twolegs. He hated it so much, and yet it was all he had. He looked over to Dandelionwish with a raised brow.

"You'll be surprised at my abilities, I'm not totally useless." He said. He couldn't blame him, really. Dandelionwish didn't know just how much twolegs loved giving animals weird names. Truly they were cursed beings.

HAVING BEEN A SILENT PRESENCE AS THE GROUP TRAVELED THROUGH the pines, darkened lips set into a frown. Critical optics stared at the felines he found himself with, not at all surprised he barely knew any of them. Figures. He still didn’t find an effort to make conversation with the very clan he lived with. He wasn’t like he deserved to be happy after everything that’s happened.

With a sigh, Duskpool rumbled in acknowledgment, whiskers twitching. “Alright.” He didn’t mind the friendly competition, glancing at Banansplash. With a huff, Youkai grinned over at Wobbledog. “Better put your skills where your mouth is then, Wobble.” Tone challenging.
