Chapter 5-
Flameflower padded out of sight of Mistfur's den. She was nice, maybe Flameflower would visit again. Flameflower scented the air. Fat shrew, thrush, vole and rabbit. She headed in the direction of the rabbit. She spotted it. It looked plump. Flameflower swiped her tongue around her jaws. She snaked up to it and pounced in an enormous leap. The rabbit collapsed beneath her paws. Flameflower nipped its throat. Flameflower gulped it down. Green-leaf brought lots of prey, and warm weather. Flameflower decided to hunt more, so she wouldn't be hungry. She scented squirrel. Flameflower leaped in the direction of the squirrel. This time, she ran up to it and killed it in a swift bite. Flameflower carried it to a bush. The bush had ferns and moss underneath. Flameflower gulped the squirrel down. It was almost dusk. She spotted 2 blackbirds together on a tree. Double! Flameflower climbed the tree eagerly, slowly approaching. Quickly, she slammed both her front paws on them. Yes! Flameflower carried them down gleefully. She would save some for tomorrow.
Flameflower looked up wearily from under her bush. She wasn't that hungry, since she ate a squirrel and a rabbit last night. Flameflower would need more fat for next leaf-bare. She tore apart a blackbird and swallowed it. Taking the other blackbird, she had headed toward Mistfur's den.
