A familiar scent

[Blackwind]

Lostheart was sleeping in the warrior's den one day, when he woke up, and he smelled a sweet scent, it was strong, and he recognized it, as if from his childhood. He followed the scent to the river. The wind was blowing hard, and the sound of the water rushing by was loud.

There was a cat standing at the bank, her fur was soft-looking and white. It was not dirty, like it should get when one was hunting, sleeping on piles of moss, fighting, and all of the other things that a warrior cat does. He was sure she was where the scent was coming from, but he realized she had a windclan scent. "Who are you?!?" he yowled.

The cat turned around, and looked into his eyes. I've seen those eyes before, a piercing blue... Shivers went down her spine. "Who are you?!!?" she also yowled.

"I asked you first." Lostheart mewed. he came closer to the bank, also where the other cat was standing. Surely if she was a threat, she would've attacked him.

"My name is Shatteredheart." She mewed.

"... That name sounds familiar. Do I know you?"

"...Are you... Are you that kit?" Memories came rushing back to Shatteredheart. She remembered a kit flailing through the river, and how she saved him. "You are!"

"Shatteredkit?"

" Yes, it's me from windclan. I'm glad you remember me. ... You haven't fallen in any rivers recently, have you?" she mewed, laughingly.

Hawkstar came here. "Shatteredheart! You belong in Riverclan". Her eyes were clouded with sadness

[Blackwind]

"Do I know you?"Shatteredheart yowled coldly.

Lostheart stared at Shatteredheart for a second. "That's Hawkstar, the leader of your clan."

Shatteredheart hesitated. "...........Right....OH! Hello, Hawkstar." she bowed her head.

"Are you alright?"Lostheart kept looking at Shatteredheart. Her fur was so beautiful.

Shatteredheart stuck her paw in the river, and Lostheart kept his distance from both Hawkstar and Shatteredheart. He sat down, still inside the Windclan border, and let the sun shine in his fine, black fur. Shatteredheart said nothing, but she drank from the river calmly, waiting for Hawkstar to say something, even though Lostheart had the feeling she would ignore it. Such a defiant attitude... He could tell from even looking at her.

Finally Shatteredheart spoke. "Hawkstar, Are you alright? Why do you look sad?"

[hawkstar]

"well I thought you coming here meant you were leaving Riverclan". mewed Hawkstar

[Blackwind]

Shatteredheart hesitated. "...Why would I leave riverclan?"

Lostheart looked to Shatteredheart, and back at Hawkstar. "Thank you, Shatteredheart." He was happy that he got to see her, at least one more time, if only to thank her. He began to walk back towards the windclan camp. He knew that it was against the warrior code to fall in love with cats from different clans, and he thought he was falling in love with Shatteredheart. He had to get out of there."See you some other time!" He borke into a run, and disappeared into some trees.

Shatteredheart sighed. "Hawkstar, wanna go hunting?"

[Blackwind]

Blackstar followed the scent of Lostheart away from the camp. "...I wonder what he's doing all the way out here by the riverclan border?"

She followed his trail, and then something slammed into her, sending her flying backwards a few tail lengths. "Lostheart?"

Lostheart rubbed his head with his paw. "Oh, Um...Hello, Blackstar."

"I was just going to check out the border, do you want to come with me?"

Lostheart knew he couldn't just say no to his leader. "Alright."

They walked to the border, and still saw Shatteredheart and Hawkstar. Lostheart tried not to look at either riverclan cat while him and Blackstar sniffed the border.

"Lostheart! Come over here!!"

"What are you two doing?" Shatteredheart asked.

Lostheart said nothing, but Bluestar glared icily at Shatteredheart. "What's wrong with this border?"

Lostheart sniffed the border, and then he noticed. The riverclan border has expanded into the Windclan border some. "Um, Blackstar, maybe we should ignore it for now?"

"I would love to, but then I wouldn't be a good leader, now would I?" She turned towards Shatteredheart. "Is there a reason for this?"

"How should I know? Shatteredheart mewed.

Blackheart sighed. "I suppose we'll be discussing this later on. Maybe at the next gathering. " She turned and headed towards the Windclan camp.

[hawkstar]

Hawkstar mewed "i am very sorry Blackstar". "COME with me to camp, Shatteredheart, NOW"!

[Blackwind]

Blackstar bowed her head towards Hawkstar, signaling that everything was alright. Lostheart looked over to Shatteredheart, who came closer to the river and began dipping her paws in. "Did I do something wrong, Hawkstar?" She mewed in a cute-pouty sort of tone.

[hawkstar]

"no Blackstar you didn't". Hawksatr mewed.

[Blackwind]

((That was Shatteredheart saying that, btw.)) Shatteredheart turned from the river, shook both of her paws, and nodded towards Hawkstar. "Let's go then, Hawkstar." she mewed.

Lostheart couldn't stop staring at Shatteredheart, who noticed his eyes boring into her skin. She turned and looked at him and there was a twinkle in her eyes as she turned and walked towards Hawkstar.

Blackstar prodded Lostheart with her paw. "LOSTHEART!" she yowled. Lostheart lurched, and then turned to look at Blackstar. "Let's go." Blackstar mewed haughtily. She seemed to be angry about something.
