Hey people. :P I have a short chapter here for you. It's not a lot, and I'm sorry, but my dog has to be put down in a few days and I'm really depressed about it. :( My heart just isn't into writing right now. I hope you can forgive me.

Read on...

...

Chickadees whistled above our heads in the trees and I turned my head, ears searching for any movement within my radar on the ground. There was nothing, and it was frustrating-I couldn't hunt if my life depended on it.

"Stupid prey," I grumble to myself. Foxpaw was quiet beside me. "I wish it could just let me eat it so I wouldn't have to waste my time looking for it."

"C'mon, Tiny," Foxpaw chuckled the words. He had adopted it as my new nickname. "Be patient."

I didn't say anything, but sighed, glancing around as we walked. Not a thing.

Then, suddenly, Foxpaw bolted, and I frantically looked around, trying to see what be was chasing. He had ran far up ahead of me, behind a large pine tree. It was an odd sight, as in there were few other trees that weren't willows, but I found familiarity in it, thinking of my own Clan.

"Tiny, look what I caught!" An awfully proud voice called. You could hear the happiness in it. It seemed Foxpaw joked and smiled more often as we learned more about each other. He was polite and kind, and was older than me, but he had a childish way about him that I loved.

"What is it?"I called back hesitantly. Another thing was my own feelings towards him. I found it easier to talk, and I stuttered less when I was around Foxpaw. It was as if my fear was depleting and my real personality was coming out. I liked it.

"Rabbit! It's a rabbit!"

The exclamation made me frown. Rabbit was a Windclan food. I detested feathers because of their oil, and though mouse was good from time to time, the insides were squishy and the middle always tasted plant-like because of the mouse's diet.

"Rabbit?" I questioned when Foxpaw came back. "I've never had rabbit. Does it taste like mouse?"

Foxpaw set down the bundle of fur in his mouth. Unlike the grey and brown hares I'd viewed from time to time, this rabbit was white, and its feet were longer than most. The ears were also very long.

"Well, you're going to try it now!" Foxpaw mewed with a smile. "And mouse is far too mushy to even compete with rabbit. Mouse is almost as gross as those frog things you Shadowclan cats eat. Rabbit is a lot better. And this rabbit with be even better, because it was faster than anything I'd ever hunted."

I sent a questioning look, and Foxpaw shrugged. "In Windclan, catching a fast piece of prey means good luck.,

I nodded, then, with some convincing from Foxpaw, I took taste of meat from the rabbit's thigh.

My eyes widened. My tail fluffed. My taste buds danced on flavour overload. It was amazing! Instead of being fuzzy and fatty as I expected, the meat was taught and thick with muscle. It was delicious.

"Mmmmmm," I moaned. "Nomnomnom..."

Foxpaw laughed and we ate happily, enjoying a simple meal with each each others, with, for once, no interruptions.

Then a hign pitched voice shrilled through the woods. "Tinypaw! My little mouse, where are you?"

My head snapped up in shock.

"Cloudeyes?!"

Sorry about the cliffhanger! :P You guys haven't had a lot yet and I need some suspense.

On a completely different topic, if there's any X-Men Movie Series fans out there you should check out "Spaded Tails and Feathered Wings" by Aaron Ledgers. It's a romance story that's fantastically written and I'd appreciate if you guys read it and reviewed. Check it out later. I'll be watching to see if any of this story's reviewers go check it out.

Another thing is that I would like to thank you all for getting me to 100 reviews-give or take a few-because I'm so glad to have made it this far this quickly. I know I've been having hiatus's for a while, but you've all been patient and that's all I could ever ask for. Also, my hundredth reviewer was Featherpool16-for some reason that doesn't surprise me, as she's on of my most loyal and continious reviewer-and I would like to congratulate her on that. So, Featherpool16, I can't really make another OC as I don't have any character slots left, but I could write you a one-shot of you'd like. On anything you want, really. It can be related to this story, or it can be about a cat marrying a horse. LOL I don't really care. If you don't want a one-shot, that's fine, but lemme know if you do.

Anyways, happy reading. I'll have another chapter up when I can. ;)
