    Flamepelt entered Shadowclan's camp, her jaws laden with prey. She crossed the clearing and laid her fresh–kill at the pile, her tail flicking. Her bright ginger pelt was slightly muddy because of their swampy territory, but, she was planning on grooming herself.


    Glancing around the clearing for a quiet, secluded spot so she could clean her fur, Flamepelt narrowed her amber eyes and curled her tail. The sight of a few cats and their mates caught her attention, but, she decided to ignore them and their loud purring.


    It kinda annoyed her, and she vowed that she'd never act like that.

    " hey!" Russetshadow smiled looking at her and sat down back on his haunches " good hunting?" he flicked his tail lookinat her with his fiery amber eyes

    Sparrowtail padded past the fresh-kill pile, tossing his freshly caught squirrel to the top of the mound. Biting his tongue to fight the urge to gulp down every piece of prey, the tabby-and-white tom forced himself to hold his breath and trot away rapidly. Once he reached a point in the clearing where he could not smell the delicious, mouth-watering fresh-kill, he took in a whiff of breath. It was horrible. It was torture. It was horribly torturous. The scent of food drifted into his mouth and nose, and Sparrowtail held back a grumble of hunger. His belly growled for him, since he didn't allow the groan to pass through his throat.


    Sighing, Sparrowtail gave his paws a couple swift licks and walked forward, "accidentally" bumping into Flamepelt. He watched as she moved, her bright orange fur shining in the sun's rays. The stunning emerald green {{ I think? Amber perhaps? IDR }} eyes of the she-cat always sparkled, day and night, no matter what time it was or what mood she was in. Sparrowtail always found her fascinating. He had had the biggest crush ever on the she-cat since he was apprenticed alongside her, but had never had the chance to let her know. Perhaps this was the chance.


    What?


    What was he thinking? He could not just randomly go up to some cat -- even if it was his friend -- and ask her to be his mate. Stalkerish much?


    Instead of doing the crazy things he had had in mind, Sparrowtail casually made his way to Flamepelt and sat down once he reached her. The fluffy fur on his tail ruffled as it curled automatically around himself. Strangely, he didn't feel as nervous as he used to. Usually, his whole body would be shaking, and he would not know what to say, but today he felt like talking his mouth off.


    Here goes nothing.


    "Hey," Sparrowtail meowed, facing Flamepelt. His voice only got tangled with another tom's -- Russetshadow.

    Russetshadow looked at the slightly smaller Tom his amber eyes burned like fire his jet black paws sat in front of him his pelt shining

    OOC: Lol, they're amber. XP


    IC: Flamepelt raised an eyebrow, looking from Russetshadow to Sparrowtail. "Uh, hi," she mewed before replying to Russetshadow's question, "Yes, it was alright." Sitting down, she began to groom herself, starting by giving her paws a few licks and them rubbing her ears and face with them. Next, she twisted her head around with ease, and cleaned the fur on her back.


    Her slender tail was laid over her paws in a somewhat lazy-casual manner, but she didn't really care. The young she–cat just kept her focus on her grooming, her ears twitching and the tip of her tail flickering to and fro every once in a while.


    ((HAHA!! I almost put Russetstar instead of Russetshadow! I'm such a failure!...))


    Sparrowtail nodded at Flamepelt's fresh-kill.


    "Nice catch," he meowed, cocking his head to a friendly angle as he watched as the she-cat groomed her shining fur. "So I heard you're a really great hunter."
    {{ Sorry for the short post! }}

    Flamepelt pricked her ears and glanced up from her licking, her pink tongue sticking out of her mouth. Lifting her head after pulling her tongue in, the ginger tabby looked at Sparrowtail and couldn't help but tilt her chin up.


    "I suppose you can say I am," she meowed, not exactly sounding snobby or arrogant, but with a great hint of flattery. No one really paid attention to her hunting, so his praise made her feel good and useful.


    ((Man, I need to get back into the hang of having Flamepelt with a short temper and a mean personality.. Also, it's okay! Whenever you make humongous posts, it makes me feel as though I'm not typing enough. So, don't worry. ;)))

    Russetshadow nodded " well, it will feed all of the elders and kits" he licked his forwpaw drawing it over his ear " but still have a ways to go" he meowed between licks

    Flamepelt looked at Russetshadow and nodded, licking her shoulders and chest fur. She was just about to reach down and clean her tail, when an embarrassingly loud rumble came from her stomach. Flattening her ears, she ducked her head and tried to ignore her growing hunger as she swiftly licked her tail and lower back.


    Once she was finished, she got up and shook her silky fur out, another growl sounding from her middle. Glancing at Sparrowtail and Russetshadow, she dipped her chin to them and hurried towards the fresh–kill pile, her tail waving behind her.

    Shadow smiled " wanna share " he called to her his eyes glowed as he lifted his head to look at her his ears flicked slightly

    The warrior stopped about a fox-length from the fresh–kill pile. She looked over her shoulder at Russetshadow and pricked her ears. "Uh.." she began with a twitch of her whiskers. "Sure." Flamepelt took a few more paces forward and grabbed a fat vole.


    Looking at Russetshadow, she beckoned for him to follow her with a wave of her tail as she turned towards a sunny spot at the edge of the camp's clearing. She kinda like sharing food with someone, especially with one of her greatest friends.

    Russetshadow smiled padding after sitting in a sunning spot he waited for her to take the first bite "so how's your day going so far" he meowed

    Flamepelt shrugged and crouched down beside Russetshadow, laying the vole in between the two of them. "It's been alright, I suppose," she mewed before taking a fairly large bite out of the rodent. "Kinda the same as every other day."


    She chewed and swallowed, quickly eating her share of the vole. She then pushed it towards Russetshadow and flicked her tail, watching him.

    Russetshadow smiled dipping his head eating his share in two swift bites " ah, I see your having one of those days " he flicked his tail " how about we go for a walk.. You know to get your mind off of things" he stood up looking at her

    Flamepelt looked at Russetshadow, blinking. "Sure," she mewed slowly after a moment. She got to her paws and lowered her front so that her chest fur brushed against the ground, her tail curling over her back as she stretched.


    She stood up and shook her pelt off, turning towards the camp's entrance as she began to walk out. Once she was just outside the barrier, she looked behind her to see of Russetshadow had truly followed.

    He padded up to her pressing close to her as they began to walk into the forest he chuckled slightly " I remember when we were apprentices and we would always race eachother to the oak tree" he looked at her with a warm smile

    Seeing Flamepelt and Russetshadow pad off toward a small path near the trees, Sparrowtail rushed to his paws and darted forward to catch up with them. He and Russetshadow had been the best of friends ever since they had been apprenticed together, and it felt strange to feel a certain hatred towards his best buddy. Perhaps it was because they both liked the same she-cat. Either way, Flamepelt would be Sparrowtail's in the end, and he would do anything to stop Russetshadow from having her. With so many she-cats in ShadowClan mooning over him, who would even think that he wanted a certain cat for his mate?


    "M-mind if I join you two?" Sparrowtail piped up, gingerly trotting up next to Flamepelt. He beamed at her before straining his neck to reach Russetshadow's face. Sparrowtail flashed him a warm grin as well. He didn't want any cat getting any bad ideas.

    Russetshadow raised his brow looking sideways at him then looking behind her at the Tom his teeth bared and his eyes glowed of rage he let a low growl from his throat flashing him a warning then looked back to the front calmly as if nothing ever happened

    Flamepelt looked at Sparrowtail and pricked her ears. She flicked her tail. "Yeah, sure," she mewed before flashing Russetshadow a warning glare of her own. Her eyes were slits, for she had heard the barely audible growl come from him.


    She leaned over and, quietly enough so that Sparrowtail couldn't hear, hissed, "What's wrong with him tagging along? Relax or I'll rip your ears off." The tabby then straightened up and trotted a few fox–lengths ahead of them, her tail curling in a fairly happy manner.

    Russetshadow looked at her " why don't you go with him" he turned away and walked off into the camp laying under the pine tree " that worthless exude for a car he is doing this deliberately" he slashed his claws into its bark
