Trespassing

[~†Lionstar†~]

Roseheart was stealthily slinking towards a mouse on her side of the river when it ran "Foxdung!" she yowled as it got away. Just then she had an idea "I'll slink into their territory and steal some prey." she thought. Roseheart jumped into the water and began kicking furiously. When she got to the other side she scrambled onto shore and shook herself dry. Roseheart scented the air and immediately scented a vole. She slunk up to the bush and in no time she saw its little body come out of the shadows. Roseheart easily killed it with a bite to the neck.

[*Crimson*]

Sandfur was strolling through the forest, marking boarders on the trees. He was about to break from of trees and go to the river when he smelled a cat. Sandfur barred his teeth when he recongnised Thunderclan! He slunk though the bushes and glanced out at the intruder, he noticed she was a very cute cat. For a moment he frose and just looked at her, but when he watched her kill a Riverclan vole he walked out into the open wishing he had insisted that either Nightstar or Creampaw come with him,

"I hope your going to hand that over, it's so nice of you to hunt for a rival clan," He snarled.

[~†Lionstar†~]

Roseheart frose as she heard a cat talking to her. She turned around and noticed an equally handsome tom. She smiled and dropped the vole pushing it towards him. "Thanks I just thought I might help." she snarled through her smile. The tip of Rosehearts tail twitched as she looked at the tom her muscles tensing. She was ready to spring into a fight if she had to. Roseheart wasn't afraid of him so she sat down and gave her chest fur a few licks before standing up again.

[*Crimson*]

Sandfur stayed standing, he didn't want to fight but he also didn't want her to think that Riverclan didn't protected their territory. Glaring at her he walked over, he watched her lick her chest and barred his teeth furiose that she would do that. His mind forgot his no fighting reseme that it liked. He grabed the vole and lashed his tail,

"Great, thanks now go home you don't belong here." she snarled quietly not returning her smile and flexing his muscles letting them ripple under his marbled coat.

[~†Lionstar†~]

This made Roseheart furious and her neck fur began to bristle and her tail puffed to twice its size. She barred her teeth and let out a hiss of pure anger. Roseheart walked up to him unti lshe was an inch away from her nose "What did you say?" she hissed while unsheathing her claws. Her tail twitching as she stared at this so called warrior trying to boss her around. But she remembered that she didn't want to attack unless she had to. Rosehearts fur lay flat as she mewed "I'm sorry for snapping at you." her tail dtooping as the words came out of her mouth.

[*Crimson*]

Sandfur smiled ruefully she reminded him of his last apprentice. At the apprentice's memory a small pain laced though him. He didn't flinch when she was an inch away and watched her check herself,

"You know you don't belong in Riverclan, there is just too much water," he said a bit softer, "did you fall in?" he laughed having just had a conversation about Thunderclan cats falling in the water and having to be pulled out.

[~†Lionstar†~]

Roseheart looked at him and let out a giggle. " No silly I love to swim in the water. Its my favorite thing to do." she said a smile plastered on her face. Roseheart sat down infront of him to talk. Her fur twitching as she remembered he wasn't her clan mate, but just looking at him made her feel all warm in fuzzy inside and she didn't know why. She knew it wasn't right but she must be falling in love with this charming tom.

[*Crimson*]

Sandfur at first was cautious and contiunued to stand but his tail stopped lashing and just waved back and forth cautiously. He almost laughed with her before he remembered that this was a Thunderclan cat. His thoughts slowed and gumbled and he had to shake his head to clear it,

"Love water?" he replied, "how can a Thunderclan cat love water?" He asked slowly sitting down.

[~†Lionstar†~]

"I don't really know why I love water,but I can say it makes me feel like I'm flying. she mewed. She watched Sandfur slowly sat down. Her love for him was soaring in her chest and she was tempted to yowl it to the world. But Roseheart knew it wasn't allowed so she never said a word. "So how has your day been so far?" she said looking into his eyes with contenment.

[*Crimson*]

Sandfur felt his heart jump into his throat, he felt the same way about swimming. He felt a ripple of nerves run down his back. He was inexplicably happy near her, she was just so beautiful,

"Its been OK, I've been hunting most of it." he said glancing around, for some reason he didn't want anyone to find her here, and he tried to think of her name. He remembered seeing her at Gatherings her name was Roseheart, it fit her.

[~†Lionstar†~]

Roseheart smiled at him as she heard his words. "Cool. I've been spending my day taking care of our clan kits.' she said calmly as she looked into his eyes. She felt so happy around Sandfur that it didn't seem real. Roseheart secretly hoped that someone wouldn't come and find them together because she knew what he consequences were. Just then she heard a twig snap on here side of the river,she turned her head fear filling them but she saw a squirrel come out of the shadows and relaxed. She turned her head back toward him and said "That was close."

[*Crimson*]

Sandfur smiled at the mention of kits, he loved kits and was sad that Riverclan had no kits right now. When he heard the snap he jumped up and then shook his head to clear away the panic. It suprised him when he had felt a huge surge to protect her from being discovered,

"Well maybe we should move from here, there is a island not far from here." He looked at her, finnaly realizing that all the feelings that he was haveing showed that he loved her he wanted to see her again.

[~†Lionstar†~]

RoseHeart smiled at him as he mentoned the island. She immediately got up and said "sure that sounds like a good idea." Roseheart smiled at him. Roseheart wanted to see him more then just gatherings. "I love you!" she screamed in her mind as she looked at him waiting for him to start heading for the island.

[*Crimson*]

Sandfur stood up and started to walk over to the water's edge, his last thought before leaving was 'what are you doing? She is a Thunderclan cat!' but he dismissed it and traveled down the river, before leaving he grabed the vole and buried it under the sand. He passed though a bush and waited for her on the other side, you could see the island from here it was covered with small trees, bushes, and dence brambles. He used to go to this island when he was an apprentice all the time. He looked back for Roseheart.

[~†Lionstar†~]

Roseheart followed him and watched as he buried the vole. She then saw him go through a bush so she followed. When Roseheart got to the other side she saw a beautiful island and murmered "Wow!" She looked over at Sandfur and thought "What in Starclans name are you doing with a Riverclan tom!" but she ignored it and padded on, but as she looked into the river sadness filled her as she remember her parents died in the flood. But she pushed away the feelings and happiness replaced them.
