Today, since Icefur is now better, I am able to do the hunting test! The hunting test is simple, I have to catch all of the following prey: rabbit, thrush, squirrel, and mouse. (Yuck! Mouse!) I ran out as fast as I could, telling Icefur what she missed while she was in the boring medicine den. "AndthenmeandSpottedeyewentoutforawalkandthenIpracticedhuntingwithFernlightdidImentionshewasniceandthen-" Icefur flicked her tail to my mouth and said, "Do you want to do the hunting test, learn to shut your mouth in a while, be patient, or check the elders for ticks?" I widened my eyes and exclaimed, "DEFINITELY not the last three!" "Then be quiet and start doing the hunting test!" Icefur meowed. I ran towards the scent of rabbit that I scented earlier. I stepped lightly and slithered like a snake and caught it! I buried it for later. Then I picked up a scent of thrush, and then I saw it; nibbling on a seed. I put my paws lightly on the ground, and leapt, but then it fluttered and took off! I jumped really high and I snatched with my claws. I padded a bit forward, and then my nose hit a stench, not squirrel, but a cat! I recognized the scent; salty with a tang of fish; RiverClan. Then I saw it; a sleek ginger tom fishing, on our side of the border! I ran towards it, and yelled, "Hey coward! That's our side of the border, RABBIT-BRAIN!" He turned around, and I realized who he was; Fishnose, a recently made warrior. He turned toward's me and hissed, "Who are you calling Rabbit-brain! Toad-dung!" I gaped my mouth and then did my battle cry, "GRRAWRR!" I launched at him, and scratched his nose, making it bleed. "You're gobba pay for dat, toad-fung!"he growled, his nose bleeding badly. He launched at me, but I dodged him and I used my hing legs to kick him into the water. He bobbled up and down, his face barley showing. He swam to the other side, and hissed, "I'm gobba tell Crookedtar!" He ran toward camp. To make long story short, I passed my hunting test and beated up a RiverClan warrior! Tallstar and Icefur were amused, and made me have first pick of the prey pile.
