Whitewater Gorge Boys workin' on empty

Even is for success.  2.

Mazi padded next to Faolán and Njal for a little while longer as the trio got closer to their destination, for a few more minutes... and then they were there.  It was actually a pretty decent fishing spot she had to admit, this nice body of fresh water.  She then watched as Njal got into position to fish and then dove forwards with his snout, starting to snap at the water.  For a moment Mazi's heart lifted in hopes that Njal had been success ful and had caught something, but was soon disapointed as she realized that he had caught nothing.

With a sigh Mazi walked to a different part on the bank, next to a deeper section of the water, her eyes zeroing in on any dark shapes that could very well end up being a fish, a small smile slide over her and she got ready to make her move.  At this moment in her life, Mazi was so very glad that her parents had taught her how to fish, even though of course there was still a high chance that she would not catch anything, due to the effects of the famine, but at least this way she had a high chance.

Before stricking, Mazi made sure that she was ready.  The agouti repositioned herself by lightly rocking her body to the left and double checking that her shadow didn't fall onto the water - it didn't - so that she could be sure that her presence was hopefully going unknown to the fish.  With that Mazi struck.  She jabbed her muzzle into the water, aiming at the dark body that swam in the water... and then she caught it.  Surprise and relief flashed through Mazi's eyes as blood gushed into her mouth.  Pride swarmed her for the catch and she turned to face Faolán and Njal, eyes smilling.  Then she padded a few feet away from the bank and laid the fish down at her feet, slamming a paw into it's head and instantly killing it in the process.

"That's one."
