[Periwinklebreeze.]

ATOMS AND LOW SELF-ESTEEM,
IS THAT ALL THAT I'M GONNA BE ? ​

periwinklebreeze ❀ 28 moons ❀ demi-boy ❀ windclan lead warrior ​

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

Blackened paws slide against frosted ground, careful to keep from crunching to loudly with each step he takes. While many of his clanmates pride themselves in their speed - not needing to rely on stealth to chase down the rabbits that windclan so often hunts, periwinklebreeze has always found that a mixed approach works better for him. Grass parts carefully as he stalks, limbs coiled taut - ready to spring at a moments notice, as he follows the scent trail he'd been tracking. Theres a twitch of ink-tipped ears at the sound of rustling, and suddenly they are on the move - rabbit fleeing in a panic with the lead warrior hot on it's heels. It's not long before he's gaining ground - except, it snaps left, thankfully right towards another familiar figure. Blue eyes glow with excitement as voice calls out warning - " Incoming! "

[Mallowtail]

Incoming!

Mallowtail springs to action at Periwinklebreeze's voice, bundled muscles springing into action. The cream sepia watches as the rabbit unknowningly falls into their trap, and soon she strikes forth similar to an adder. As the rabbit catches sight of her and attempts to escape, the hesitation and preparation beforehand already allowed for her to catch up. Frost crunches underneath her paws in the short chase as she soon looms over the creature and lashes out with a quick paw to incapitate the rabbit for a moment. It stumbles, and she quickly sinks her fangs into the neck of their hunt as she stands tall with the rabbit hanging from her jaws.

"Got it!" she chirps happily as her tufted tail swishes side to side. It was a successful catch in these trying times, which came as a rare accommodation. Her honey brown gaze flicks towards the lead warrior as she dips her head as a sign of respect for their teamwork, "that was good work, Periwinklebreeze!" Mallowtail would purr as she placed the rabbit down to clean off the blood staining her mouth and to allow for the other to carry their prize back. She couldn't of caught it without his help, after all!

This was a prime example of when it was best to work together instead of alone especially in difficult times such as leafbare.

[SEDGEPOUNCE]

Woosh! The thing goes flying, feet thumping on the cold and hollow moorland ground, tailed by a smear of silvery-charcoal. Then a feint left and—Oh! Right into Mallowtail's jaws!

He'd whistle if cats could do that. "Woo-hoo!" Sedgepounce calls instead. He trots close, shepherd-crook tail held high. Mist billows from the grin stretched across his maw. "Great catch, you guys," he tells them warmly. It's just about the only warm thing around this deep into this weird, early onset Leafbare. That and the rabbit blood staining the grass. But it's good to know that another kit or elder or apprentice can be fed.
