Caught Red Handed

@Crescendo @Burke

After she woke up in the middle of the woods with Crescendo, she had decided that she need to do something. Something that didn't involve him. Little did she know that he was probably looking for her that very moment.

Her nose twitched as she tried to pick up the scent of prey near by. Coming up empty, she switched to her ears, them swiveling on top of her head like radar disks. She wasn't really that hungry, she just needed something to do, ASAP. After listening for a bit, she picked up the sound of light fluttering near by. Creeping slowly through the bushes, she spotted her target. A pair of pheasants were nestled in the undergrowth, squabbling among themselves rather loudly. Stupid birds.

She took a count to three then leapt, her paws pushing her off the ground and right into the pheasant's nests. While she had been aiming for both of them, one of the plump birds wriggled out of her grasp, squawking and flying away, leaving her with only one. But one was better than none. She picked up the dead bird and padded to a more comfortable spot before settling and stripping it of its feathers.
