[ti]Private[/ti]I'm Trying My Best

Aspencrest crouched by the small stream, intrigued by the little ripples of water and the fast swimming of the fish. She had attempted to fish one out multiple times, but failed to catch them. She was getting a bit agitated, and her paws were getting soaked. She focused intently on the shallow water, and some of the slower fish. She needed some quick reflexes to swipe out a fish from here. She had to direct all her focus. A few fish swam by, although fast. She tried to swipe before the fish reached her paw, but she judged the timing badly. She missed and splashed some chilly drops of water on her face. 
With a furious hiss, she drew back from the water, still holding her gaze on its surface. She flicked the droplets off her whiskers and waited for the next fewfish to come along.

Foxflight - - >
    
    The slender she-cat walked quietly along the stream, enjoying the calming sounds of the water trickling down from her waterfall home. That was, until she heard some splashing about up ahead. She grumbled quietly to herself, assuming a kit or mouse-brained apprentice was splashing around in the water. That was, however, not the case, as Foxflight noticed one of her fellow warriors, attempting and failing it looked like, to catch a fish. She recognized Aspencrest flailing her paws out and about in the stream, making more of a ruckus than anything. She watched in bitter amusement as the fluffy mostly-white she-cat proceeded to splash herself in the face.

    After a few heartbeats she finally padded forward, shaking her head slowly. "No, no." She hissed, moving a tail length away from the Aspencrest on the bank of the stream. "You're aiming too close to the surface, you need to scoop your paw just below the fish so it doesn't escape. Also, keep your head away from the water, they can probably see your shadow." Getting into proper fishing form, she crouched just out of sight of the fish, paw outstretched. A silver flash sparked against the surface of the water as the she-cat shot her paw forward, moving with it. The fiery red cat watched as she'd flipped the small fish onto the bank, where it flopped around helplessly before Foxflight pinned it down with a paw, nipping it's spine as it now lay lifeless. "See? Are you sure you're a MistClan cat?" She teased, flicking her tail and stepping away from the water. "Now you try."

Aspencrest winced at Foxflight's stern explanation. She couldn't help but admire the red she cat's impressive catch. Staring down at the ground, she commented, "Nice catch."
Aspencrest got carried away for a moment before noticing how her pelt was burning. She wanted to cool herself off by plunging into the water. But that wasn't possible without looking like a mouse brain. She looked back at Foxflight and her catch, then stepped toward the stream. She let out a small gasp of surprise as she brushed past Foxflight's red pelt, and flinched away awkwardly. She awkwardly copied Foxflight's pose and began to look for some fish.
After a few heartbeats, she gave up and sat next to Foxflight. She was at a loss for words, her thoughts a jumbled mess as she tried to compose a sentence.
