Under the red sunset, Howlingstar moves gracefully through the underbrush. Like a true ThunderClan warrior, she is well-versed in the stealth needed to traverse this forest. Her seasoned paws step lightly, her senses acutely attuned to the subtlest of sounds and scents. The sun's burning glow paints her tabby pelt in a fiery glow as she stalks after a trail that promises a juicy rabbit at the end of it. Already, she can imagine the excited squealing of her grandchildren and great grandchildren when she drags this to the nursery! The rustling of ferns alerts her to the spot where the prey nibbles, and through the undergrowth she can spot it, fat with greenleaf grasses.
The she-cat crouches low and poises herself for pouncing, her muscles bunched and her tail still. Focused eyes do not leave her unaware target that sits eating clover, her ears pricked as the forest's peaceful symphony of birdsong and buzzing insects surrounds her. But then, suddenly, a sharp crack splits the tranquility - a twig snapping under unknown paws. Alerted by the sound, the rabbit is quick to jerk away from the scene, fleeing into the brush. Howlingstar's muscles tense as instincts honed by seasons of experience snap her into action. Every sinew is alive as she scans the shadows around her, the shock of what just happened clear on her expression. "Who's there?"
// Uh oh! Someone ruined her hunt on purpose. Open to several villains who were the ruiners, but anyone else can arrive at the same time!
