Gingerstep

The stars were up in the sky, the moon slowly rising. Gingerstep wasn't asleep yet, or planning to. She wasn't also planning on tackling the fresh-kill pile yet. There was one more rabbit to be caught. She had promised herself to catch at least five or so of those white fluffy mammals--at least before green-leaf ends--daily. It was a pretty stupid idea, and probably will be to other cats when they hear of it, but Gingerstep liked sticking with plans. That was two rabbits for herself, and three for the clan. And it was absolutely a secret. Nobody knew what challenges she sets herself in.  After all, she would absolutely prefer a nice warm freshly killed rabbit then the ones in the fresh kill. Anyways, she already gave the three rabbits she caught that day to the clan. The fourth was breakfast. 

She had had a busy day. It was a day full of hunting and training with Tigerpaw and some more hunting with Tigerpaw. Enough to make a normal cat have an early bed time sleep. But Gingerstep was having none of that yet. She was tired, sure enough, and sometimes tiredness can lead to crankiness. She probably could explode if a cat happens to cross her when she gets back to camp, but right now she just wants her dinner. Sure enough, she caught a whiff of rabbit. She felt her mouth water, as she started to stalk towards it. She was going to catch it, soon enough. 

It was easy really. The rabbit never saw her or scented her. She purred with satisfaction as she proudly sank her teeth to her rabbit. It was a perfect day to end the day. She deserved this. She did!

Notes: I basically wanted this to be a thread of: "Gingerstep, you might need to fix your attitude a little bit, because nobody wants a deputy with a short temper."  But the interactions between Gingerstep and Littleflame would be worthwhile.

` LITTLEFLAME

252 . Yuno

it was getting late, littleflame heading across the moor after a quick border patrol. he had sent the warriors that had accompanied him ahead, preferring to walk back alone to try and enjoy the quiet for at least a moment. it had been a relatively good day. training mousepaw was going well, as much as the tom's demeanor annoyed him. ah, well. they would hopefully work past it. it gave him something to do at least, when he wasn't busy working directing the clan. it didn't exactly feel like a partnership with starlingstar, especially after the other had made the apprentice pairings without speaking to him at all. it felt like they were both doing their own tasks, rather than working together. was that what it was supposed to be like? he didn't know. 

he wasn't expecting to run into any other cat on his way to camp; it was late, after all. most cats were settling down for the night. all except gingerstep, it seemed. he almost considered ignoring her, walking past her and her catch, but he figured it was a good chance to talk with the she-cat. besides, it could be an opportunity to talk about her...attitude. if one could call it that. whatever it was, it was annoying. a temperamental cat could easily become a problem.

"gingerstep." he greeted as he approached her, eyeing her catch. at least she was a good hunter. "have you been catching rabbits all day? you'll leave none for the rest of us."

Gingerstep

Gingerstep looked up in surprise at the sound of paw steps approaching, her ears pricked and her eyes wary. She relaxed when she saw that it was Littleflame, the clan deputy. "Littleflame." She greeted politely, brushing off the comment about the rabbits and the like. "Fancy meeting you here. Wasn't catching all day of course, I have Tigerpaw to train. Want to share the rabbit? If you haven't eaten yet." She nudged the slightly eaten dead prey forward, twitching the tip of her tail. It was not an official hunting patrol, she was hunting for herself, and the clan had eaten, so she was doing nothing of the sort that involves breaking the warrior code.


The ginger cat huffed a little, as she looked up toward the sky, towards the twinkling stars of Silverpelt. "Tigerpaw's training is going well." She said  conversationally. "He's a nice apprentice. Needs slight work on his shyness, but he's an overall good cat. Patrol?" She added, looking at Littleflame. "Where are all the others?" Gingerstep sighed, as she folded her paws, taking another bite off the rabbit. 

Notes: She's in one of her good mood swings. it's totally going to get ugly soon if he ticks her off~~
