Honeyflame pressed herself down into the ground, ignoring the snow that seeped into her belly. She could just go for a swim later to wash it all off. The two-toned tabby slid through the marshlands quietly, her pawsteps barely making any noise. She was following a scent trail. A squirrel had wandered away from the forest they usually lived in, and it would be a fatal mistake for this particular rodent.
The she-cat paused when the scent became overpowering and twitched her ears, listening. There was a scuffling sound barely a fox-length away from her. Honeyflame half-rose from her stalk and spotted the furry little beast scrounging around near a tree. 'Perfect...' she thought with a smile.
She stalked forward another tail-length and bunched her haunches together, rocking herself side to side to prepare for the launch. Just as she was about to jump, a twig snapped somewhere near her. The squirrel bolted up a tree and the warrior stood fully, eyes already narrowing into furious slits. "Alright, who's there? You just lost me a squirrel!"
