Prompt:

'I don't know what I was expecting as a newly made apprentice. I pounced on top of the rabbit and suddenly it was dragging me through the trees and brush. I was too scared to let go, and getting scolded by me mentor that i hung on the whole time, claws and teeth in the rabbit's rump. The one good kick to my chest and I let go, wind knocked right out of me. I doubt it meant to kick me, but by Starclan it hurt. When my mentor found me he was laughing so hard that we had to sit in the forest long enough for him to calm down. i guess looking back on it, a kit being dragged by a rabbit would be very funny.'

Prompt:

Never, In Robincloud's life, had a piece of prey slipped through his paws. Not until just recently. During a hunting competition with his friends, Poppytiger, Ebonyblossom, Dewblaze, and Birthlight, the squirrel he tried to catch decided it had enough of hunters coming at it and fought back. The dark furred tom proudly stated he would and could catch the most prey that day, starting with the squirrel he smelt. He bent himself down, flicking a smirk back at his unamused friends, before darting forward at the animal chewing away at an acorn. He felt his paws land on the creature before feeling it slip away. He hissed under his breath, standing up and shaking his brown pelt before letting out a panicked cry as the rodent flung itself up and onto Robincloud's muzzle. It spat and hissed, jabbing its tiny claws into the tom's face as he whirled his head around trying to fling the animal off. His four friends only watched in amusement, making sure to let their laughs loose when Robincloud hit the forest floor with a thud and a small "oomf". He let out a pout before flinching as the squirrel gave a final hiss before running off. He has never tried hunting squirrels since.

Prompt:

"...and that's when I was told I was a great hunter." Walnutpounce was not one to be humble. Nearly every patrol, he would have some story to tell about his magnificent catches. The other warriors had slowly learned to tune him out, nodding politely, half listening to his tales as they trekked through the forest. Sometimes his stories were interesting... but other times, they were quite far-fetched.

"Do you want to hear the time I ambushed a mouse from a tree branch like a bird?" Walnutpounce asked, filling the brief silence. The warrior found himself talking on quiet patrols, preferring to hear something over tracking silently. He hated the silence.

"Not right now," another warrior said, ears alert as they located something in the grass. "Though maybe you can show us that move you said you've done before."

Walnutpounce's ears twitched. "Er.... which one?"

"The twist and throw one. I want to see that in action," the other cat said earnestly, whispering to not scare off whatever was in the tall grass. "I'll help catch it."

Walnutpounce nodded, eyes narrowing as he focused. He crouched down, creeping closer into the grass. He would have to pounce in front of the creature and flick it quickly to arch it towards the rest of the patrol, and would have to be careful of where he landed.

Nimbly, the cat lived up to his name and leaped through the air; a perfect pounce. He landed perfectly in front of a mouse, but something was strange. It was standing on it's two back paws, almost like it was... expecting him? Walnutpounce's eyes widened, and the cat straightened, sending a quick glance back at the other cats who were watching him curiously.

"I think this mouse is defective," he called back, locking his eyes on the strange mouse again. He reached out a paw to bat at it, confused, but instead of shying away from the paw, the mouse took a leap straight onto Walnutpounce's outstretched leg. "Aaarrgh!" The tom cried out, jumping in the air, the mouse clinging to his leg with it's paws. "Get it off! Attack mouse!"

The rest of the patrol watched in confusion, only barely able to make out what was happening in the tall grass. They watched Walnutpounce jump around, bouncing through the grass, able to make out his head and back as he leaped high to try and shake the mouse off.

After a few more desperate hops, Walnutpounce started to run back towards the other cats, ready to ask for one of them to get the mouse off. As soon as he exited the tall grass, however, the mouse jumped off his fur, running straight towards the other cats, who looked at it in surprise. One of the cats caught it, and Walnutpounce was left opened mouthed, a look of shock on his face.

"...well, that'll be another story to tell." He finally said, his voice a higher pitch than normal.

Rank: Furcatcher

Prompt: (465)
“Snakes,” Dancing Firefly began, “are very dangerous creatures. They only come out during newleaf and greenleaf when we have plenty of prey anyway, many of them are venomous, and they are notoriously difficult to catch. Now then, Plateau,” she addressed her apprentice, “I want you to try to catch that snake over there. It hasn’t noticed us yet so you’re in luck. Now go!” She hissed the last part and roughly pushed the younger, smaller tom forward.

Plateau didn’t know what to do with himself. Dancing Firefly hadn’t exactly told him how to deal with the snake, so he guessed he’d just try whatever came to his head and hope for the best. Maybe a pounce, like for a small animal... then act as though you’re fighting a cat? I don’t know! He thought hopelessly. He pounced, landing sloppily on the adder’s tail. He knew that it would know he was there; the was no way it wouldn’t. Sure enough, it reared its head and fixed him with an icy glare. He froze in fear. It was turning towards him but he made no move to stop it or escape. From the corner of his eye he could see Dancing Firefly watching disapprovingly. Is she really not going to help me? Will she really let this, this thing kill me like this? His face hardened. I’ll show her! I’m better than she thinks I am. Despite his determined thoughts, he still found himself unable to move. As it lunged towards him, his only thought was that those teeth looked awfully sharp.

A terrible pain in his left paw shocked him back to his senses. Plateau knew that he wouldn’t die like this. That he couldn’t die like this. A fearsome yowl escaped his throat and he began attacking the snake furiously, lashing out with incomparable rage whenever its head came near him. The deep throbbing in his paw intensified and seemed to spread. It only made him angrier. Striking it with reckless abandon, darting left and right to avoid its bites, ducking and weaving to find a better angle of attack. Eventually he managed to find an opening, a flaw in the snake’s plan. He bit into its neck and didn’t let go until he felt the last tremor of movement leave its body. He was barely conscious as he dragged the beast back to him mentor, who stared at him emotionlessly. “There,” he spat, thinking it had a lot more force behind it than it did. “I caught it. Bet you didn’t think I could.. do that, huh? But, but I did... you were wrong.”

The last thing he saw before passing out was Dancing Firefly’s angry glare. “It bit you,” she hissed, turning and stalking away, her apprentice lying weakly on the floor.

Prompt:

Striker smirked as he looked out over the docks “today’s the day! I shall brave the seas and catch a fish and finally impress Tara!” he looked over at the longhaired calico sitting on the docks some distance away and winked, she just rolled her eyes. He saw a light tan tabby by some crates nearby and smiled “Hello! I’m going hunting, like I do quite often and I’m going to catch so many fish that I’ll need someone to share them with..” The other cat sighed “um, no. aren’t you that loser who spends literally all day flirting- and sucking at it. Can you even swim?” he said which caused Striker to flinch “N-no i’m someone else, i’m a king from a distant land! And of course i can swim!” with no further comment he ran into the ocean, leaving the confused, but amused cat to watch him. Striker lived on the docks, so he was pretty good at swimming. He saw a nice, large fish in the distance, and started swimming towards it, when a fish hook caught his ear. He inhaled in surprise and started coughing, he swam upwards as fast as he could and once he broke the surface he gasped for air . There was a bit of a crowd and it was growing, cats were gathering to watch him fail. He huffed, he could do this, he’d prove them all wrong!

Striker dived back underwater, the fish he had wanted was swimming towards him, it was so stupid, he unsheathed his claws ready for an easy catch. He’d never killed prey before but it couldn’t be too hard right? The fish kept getting bigger, and bigger, and bigger- ooooh that’s a shark! He thought about all of those cats up there, they knew he would fail… but what if he returned with a shark! Maybe he could get a girlfriend then! He swam towards the shark, his ear leaving blood in the water. The shark was still getting bigger, wow, a lot bigger. That’s a really big fish, maybe this wasn’t such a good idea? He turned around and saw more sharks, the blood was drawing them in. One of the smaller ones chomped towards him but his used his boneless cat abilities to avoid it, and the shark bit one of the other sharks! It turned into a sharkfight, the sharks were now a tangled mess and he could escape, but if one shark killed another he could bring the dead one back- it would all be worth it. Suddenly one of the sharks broke away and started coming at him. He panicked, swimming for the rocks, but as he was pulling himself up he felt the shark bite down on his leg…..
