The male came over. She was tempted to ward him off, but he was smart enough to move so slowly that the fish just thought him a part of the environment. They might still shift away from him, but he was starling at all. Well, except for his words. The cat brought her head up at once, affronted. "I don't need your help!" Silverback snapped immediately, her eyes growing wide with alarm and embarressment... and well, more than a little rage. But it was quick to cool. Because the truth was - she hadn't caught anything. And he had said it quite nicely...

She glared at him as he took his fish off to the side, but even her eyes softened a little as she turned back to the fish. Her tail flicked slightly as she thought. Farther forward, hmm? She didn't like water. But she did like the way those fish looked. Okay she would one... last... time. She raised her paw ever so slowly in an arch above the water. Eventually a silver-pink form came wriggling down in an arrow like line towards the waiting claws. This time, she speared her paw downwards at want seemed like a second too early.

-But it was perfect!-

She hauled her surprisingly heavy trophy out of the water, and, startled by it's paniced flapping, accidently threw it a couple yards away. The fish sailed straight over the black wolf's head and landed, still flopping, on the ground well away from the water. Silverback didn't even think about it - she followed the fish, leaping easily over the wolf and landing with her fore paws on either side of the catch.

But then what? How did you kill something like this? She pawed at it experimentally. It was rather entertaining! Her eyes glittered like stars. Her whiskers bowed forward in pleasure. She was a kitten - scooting her hind end around as she danced in a circle around the fish - now and then batting at it like a hockey puck.
