Ant looked confused but did her best, crouching down onto her belly.

"Keep your legs tucked under you and stay as low to the ground as you can without losing balance."

"Um, ok." She shifted her position and waited once more. "This better?"

"Yes,very."He replied."Now,when you're stalking step lightly and keep downwind of the wind."

"Okay, seems simple enough. Then I pounce but make sure I don't go to far. Okay! Now you stay put here and get your bearings again." She then turned and padded off into the woods, knowing the sound of him hitting the tree would have scared off the prey. She scented the air, already knowing the scent of prey, and soon found the smell of a squirrel. Keeping low like Bronzefur had said she crouched down and moved toward the scent, finding the rodent burying some nuts in the snow. She got close and then pounced, her paws landing squarely on their target and she quickly killed it. Picking it up she walked proudly back to Bronzefur to show off her catch, which was still quite plump since leaf bare had only just began.

"Aaah,so you do hunt."Bronzefur chuckled softly as she approached."That's a great catch."

Ant set down the squirrel and gave her chest fur a few licks, trying to hide her embarrassment as her ears heating up from the praise. "Thanks, go ahead and eat then." She pawed it toward him.

Ant set down the squirrel and gave her chest fur a few licks, trying to hide her embarrassment as her ears heating up from the praise. "Thanks, go ahead and eat then." She pawed it toward him. "Thanks."He huffed before taking a few bites before looking up."Want some?"He offered while chewing.

"I know you're hungry and such so it's alright." Despite her words the she-cat's eyes flitted to the prey, the scent was heavenly, way better than the dry smell of her kittypet food.

Bronzefur's gaze rested on Ant.He swallowed and stood up."I've lived through too much to be fooled by a bad lie."He growled.

"I know... I just don't feel that I should give in to me wanting some when you need it." She smiled softly, kindness in her gaze.

"That's the stupidest idea I've ever heard!"The brown tom exclaimed."That's like walking into the medicine cat's den for poppy seeds then walking out with a death berry because someone else needed the seeds!"He sighed abd settled back down next to the squirrel."Whatever,suit yourself."

Ant flinched at his words, the term stupid was something she was frequently called. "I'll just... leave you to eat." Her happiness seemed to seep away and she padded off, her head and tail down. What did I do wrong? I was just trying to be nice. He hasn't eaten since I don't know when and there isn't going to be much prey because of the snow. Guess I was wrong to try and be myself. The she-cat found herself by a large oak and settled down in a nook in the roots of it, letting out a heavy sigh as she stared off into the sky through the branches above her.

Bronzefur stood up,grabbed the rest of the squirrel and followed her.Once he spotted her he threw the remains next to her."Alright,I don't know what's wrong but eat it!"

Ant merely turned away from him and curled up more, hiding her face from his view. Her chest was stuttering with her breaths and some of the snow where her head had been was an odd color, like water drops had fallen onto to.

Bronzefur looked down at her and shrugged."If you're insistent on being like this then that's your loss,not mine."He mewed simply before padding off.

Ant turned to look after him as he left, disappearing into the bushes. She then stood and moved a few pawsteps away so she could look up at the sky. "Oh mom... dad. What do I do? I always try to just be nice, just like you taught me. Just like my sister was. Am I doing something wrong? For some odd reason I feel differently around Bronzefur than most cats and... it scares me a bit. What's happening to me? I just... I wish you were here to help me figure this out."

(So we got one cat talking to her family and another getting smacked by his dead family....Seems normal enough)
Bronzefur padded for a few more minutes before finding rather small tree,between sapling and adult tree.So kind of like an apprentice.He trotted up to it and reached up,hooking his claws in and out of the surface.
