As Faolan nipped her, her eyes widened with shock. After saying thank-you? She thought. As she turned to walk outside, she heard the rustling of leaves again, but this time, it wasn't from the trees.
Diamond crouched low, turning her head curiously. She silently crawled over the leave, and to the tree she slept under. Suddenly, a vole ran right past her nose. She sprang to her paws and ran, dead leaves flying behind her.
She jumped up, flying over to the vole, and landed on it, unsheathing her claws. She raked the vole's tiny sides with her claws, scooped it up with her paw, threw it, and finished it off with one bite on the neck.
She picked up the tiny vole as the sun started to stretch out into the sky. She walked over to Faolan And Edme's den, dropping the vole at the entrance. Then, she walked back to her tree, layed down, closed her eyes, and fell into a deep sleep.
