It was an overcast day, the normally blue summer sky now gray with cloud cover. They were too thin to promise much rain today, but the threat was eventual. A weak wind picked up for a moment, and tousled a small cat's fur about much like it did with the overgrown grass and reeds at the bank of the river. Robintail approached a small pool with relative interest, golden eyes watching small fish dart and scurry just below the surface.
Such easy prey, She thought as she readied her stance and pounced on one of the larger fish. She hooked it in her claws and delivered the killing bite, and tossed it to the shore. She began her advance towards the rest of the population, but a large splash from the river caught her attention. Robintail tilted her head, and hopped out of the tidal pool. That had been an awfully large splash...
The small deputy of Trickleclan, hardly bigger than one of its apprentices, approached the waterline of the river, looking into the water. What had that been?
