Moonlights path

20

Moonlight wasnt the only one to have dreams that night. Sparkheart tossed and turned as dreams brought memories.

Many moons ago, before the unification

Sparkheart sat at the border line, the wind softly blowing aginst his whiskers, waiting for the patrol to finish the scent markers. His feelings for Moonpaw grew stronger with each passing day, but the silver cat never took notice of his flirting. He sighed, would she ever love him the same way? A branch crack made his fur stand on end as he shot up "Whos there?" Slowly Goldenleaf came into view "Easy Sparkheart. Its just me." Behind the tom, a small patrol followed. His fur lay flat, but the unease stayed in his eyes "What do you want, Goldenleaf?" The tom sat as close to the borderline as he could and slowly he looked into Sparkheart's eyes "I want Moonlight to join shadow clan. Your the only cat that could convince her." Sparkheart layed his ears back "What?! Why would you want me to convince her into shadow clan?! Unless" he hissed angrly "Your in love with her!" Though it didnt show clearly, Goldenleaf let embarrassment show in his eyes "Maybe i am. Why? Its not like she has a mate yet! I still have a chance!" Sparkheart laughed, making Goldenleaf jump in surprise, his laugh was filled with hate "You dont get it do you?! Moonlight will never love you. Her loyalty to Thunder clan is to strong for her to fall for a shadow clan apprentice like yourself." The orange tom turned away slowly. "I'm a warrior Sparkheart. Like you. You should respect me as such!" Goldenleaf growled. "Ill respect you when you become a true warrior. And not a cat who wants to break the warrior code." And with that the tom lept back into the forest, leaving Goldenleaf frozen by the border, filled with anger.
