Unexpected Meeting

[spottedleaf]

A golden haired cat entered the beach, dipping sliently into the water. Churning paws carefully he swam around the water, bank to bank, in the simi-cold water. His short fur seemed almost water resisant and a very strong insalator (sp?). His fur was that of his father's, now dead and his eyes his mother's, or so he was told. His life was confusing, no friends, his mother swooning over that rouge-lover, Bloodclaw and Silverpaw never being around, getting little training and being alone. Thet all were killing him inside and this place was were he could unleash it alone. His paws slapped the water as he lost balance and quickly regained the soft pattern of paw movements.

A over whelmed apprentice aged cat, Moth settled herself onto the rocky shore of the beautiful RiverClan beach. She knew she was not welcomed, and cared too. Her pretty dark gold coat, and white under belly seemed to be reconizable for any cat because it was so bright. She didn't feel welcomed, Moth knew she was different. Her mother has abondoned her, and to rogue warriors, known as Thistle and Thorn had found her and her siblings. She was now as ol as an apprentice.

Fastning her claws to the shore looked at the irrestiable (sp?) water that seemed to shimmer. Her bright green eyes searched the sight of anything amoung the water. Why did you put me here? Do I have a purpose or am I just here to follow. Rain is the leader, Wolf is the softy and cute, who am I besides the follower? Do you know that someone today that was talking to me said, 'Rain's follower...'?! Her eyes shifted with anger, My name seems to be, 'Rain's Follower'. Looking down at the water, Moth thought aloud softly, "Who am I?" Her pelt rippled ech time she took a breah, her bright green eyes were so bright, if anyone stared at them, she swore that they wold be blinded. Moth's dark gold tail was swishing back and forth, you could see the white tip on the top. She looked weak, but Moth knew, deep down inside, she was a strong cat, but what was her purpose?

((*claps* very pretty and longggggggggggggggggggggggg!!!!! YAY!))

A movement caught the appretance's eyes. His paws stopped as he stepped into the beach and padded over. "How are you?" he asked with a hint of hatred tinged in his voice. She smelled like a rouge and she was about his age. He started to shelth and unshelth his claws, as soon as he relized it, he instantly stopped himself. His father hated when he did that. He sat down and looked at the she-cat, she reminded him of his father. She was golden-haired like him and her eyes where green as well, but he couldn't remember the white on his father at all. He shruggedm that away and sighed hopelessly.

(Thanx!)

Moh jumped. She didn't realize that a apprentice was next to her. She almost panicked when she saw out of the corner of her eye, him unsheath his claws, but he withdrew them almost instantly.She decided that this cat was no harm to her. The dark gold she-cat was almost glad Rain wasn't there, she would of hade her attack the apprentice. But she took away the thought. She wasn't like Rain, jsut tried to impress her a lot. Instead of doing anything, Moth nodded in acnoledgment (sp) and said, "Good, how abouut you?" Her voice sounded as if she was in the same clan s the tom, it sounded like they have met before. She managed to keep calm.

Moth the turned around to look at him, to see who she was talking to. The gold tom looked wet and hopless. His eyes were soft, he had the personality of Thorn, a rogue warrior, it seemed. Herbright green orbs looked at him in the eye. That was one thing she could do, look others straight in the eyes without flinching, she could do it emotionless as well.

Doldenpaw coocked his head at her, locking eyes unblinkingly for a moment. He smiled at her and shook his head slightly. " I'm Goldenpaw. You're a rouge. What's your name and is it fun being a rouge?" he never believed any of those horrible stories of evil rouges........ not that much.THe cat seemed nicer though, he couldn't make himself picture her as a killer or a rouge. She seemed troubled so he quickly added, " Is anything wrong you'd like to take about?" Politeness was a trait his father betrayed and Goldenpaw adopted. Thing about his father again was sad, so he pushed it aside quickly and watched the golden she-cat.

[~B*l*a*z*e~]

Moth nodded, "You can say I live as and with the rogues, but I hate them none less." she muttered to herself, quietly. "Moth... that's my name, Moth. And yes it is fun being a rogue," He seems nice enough. The gold and white she-cat thought postivly, she began to feel welcomed. Her pelt layed down smoothly. She felt calm, her voice went soft, "What about your history... if you wish to tell me." Moth understood if other cats didn't want to talk about their history, "And where do you come from Goldenpaw?"

[spottedleaf]

Goldenpaw nodded, ready to tell the she-cat, Moth, that he couldn't tell her his history, but when his mouth opened it all spilled out. " I'm from Riverclan. My mom is Angelfur and my dad was Tigerheart. I have one sister, Silverpaw. Dad was my role model, I looked up to him, wanted to be just like him." he paused to clear his throat. "One day I followed him to the Thunderpath on Thunderclan territory and he had a fight with Mom I guess, couse he left her for that idoit, Vixenchaser." He spat the name of the dreaded she-cat with hatred abd continued, " Then he was all sad and jumped in front of a monster." he closed his eyes aginst the memory of the crash, the sound, the images. He lifted his head to the sky. "He went to Starclan, never even said bye to me. I had an older brother too, a rouge named Blackthorn killed him, or so Mom says. He was Dad favorite. Anyways, Mom found out about Bloodclaw, who was mates with Blackthorn and she made him dump Blackthorn for her. So she is really no better than that fles-ridden Vixenchaser." he finished angerily. " Do you know Blackthorn?" he asked a few seconds after. His fur was ruffled and puffed up, he suddenly relised and forced it down, which proved no easy task. He carefully easied himself into a deep calmness, to get away from everything. Everything except Moth.

[~B*l*a*z*e~]

"Yes, I've talked to her, of course, Savannahheart, the Protector, said that Blackthorn used to be nicer when she had Bloodclaw for a mate, but Angelfur, that must of made her feel worse then just losing her mate, because Angelfur is one of her worst enemies!" The she-cat seemed to forget that Goldenpaw was there, then she remember she was sitting by him. Her bright green eyes looked at the gold tom. He had gentle eyes, and that made her feel coomfortable.

[spottedleaf]

Goldenpaw nodded, " Silverpaw's mentor, Silvershadow is Blackthorn's..... um uncle I think and he doesn't like mom anymore, not that much. But his mate, Swiftfoot is Mom's best friend. So he's stuck." he shrugged, standing up. "What about you?" his pelt shook to send many drops of water everywhere. THen he laid down on the beach, watching the she-cat carelessly. She was too nice to attack him and he liked her. Maybe they could be friends.

[~B*l*a*z*e~]

"My mother." Moth began, "I'm not sre what her name is, abandoned my siblings and me in rogue terriotory, or atleast close. So Rain, let us come with Thustle and Thorn and we ge=ot something to eat, and taken care of. My mother killed Father. It was horrid, she did it infront of her kits." It was hard thinking back to the fall of the black and white cat. "He was soft and genorous, Father was I mean. Rain got my mother's personality, and Wolf and I got Father's." Taking a short breath she contuined, " Rain is basically our leader, and so right at the moment, we live at the rogues." Moth got comforatble. She sat down, and wrapped her gold tail around her legs witch were tucked in.

[spottedleaf]

Goldenpaw nodded occasionally during the story, his stumach shinking as the words dragged on. "I'm sorry. It must have been hard, but I know how you feel, well sorta. A monster killed my dad, not my mom." he cocked his head, wonder if he should comfort the she-cat or if she wasn't bothered at all. He certainly was with his past, but everyone was different.

[~B*l*a*z*e~]

Shivering she shook her head, as if she was about to cry, but didn't show it, "I'm fine... I know why you hate your mother,, because I hate mine, but others don't like that, I always get the same response, 'She's your mother, you shouldn't say things about her like that.' It's so annoying, if they had the life that I had, they would be cursing about their mother." She lookede at him, "So whats your story, has anyone ever gave you a response like that?" The earth blew another short breez, hitting her pretty pelt.

[spottedleaf]

Goldenpaw nodded and is fur was too caught in the wind. He couldn't help but notice she was prettier every minute they had together. He shook his head to clear it and sighed, " I never told anybody, but I'm sure they would." she stood and picked out a stick which he glared down at like a warrior scolding a kit, he scolded the stick, " It's your mother, Starclan forbid! A mother could never be evil so much that their kits should hate them! You ungrateful flea-bitten kitty-pet!" The golden appretance laughed as he returned to his spot in the sand on the beach.

[~B*l*a*z*e~]

Moth gave a hint of humor, and giggled softly along with Goldenpaw, He's pretty nice. Moth thought kindly and scratched her paw against the light colored sand moving it around with the dark gold paw. she just made a few markings, and then pushed them away. She looked up, she moved her weight to her haunches and then put her paws down on the sand an layed down. "Whaat do you wish to talk about?"

[spottedleaf]

Goldenpaw shrugged and looked at the cat's eyes. " I don't know really." he paused, " I'd like to se you again, if I can. Is that ok?" His outword appearance was calm but his eyes ehone with joy and excitement. He really hoped the she-cat would be his friend. She was pretty, nice and smart. She even had a bit of humor. Suddenly he got the picture of her leaving and bvlurted out, "Not that you have to leave now, but when you do." his fur was hotter and the water seemed to be gone. He was glad that his fur was thick enough to hide his flushing.

[~B*l*a*z*e~]

Moth shook her head, "I do have to go, Goldenpaw, but I hope to see you again." she then felt a pang o fsorrow, her first friend, and she had to leave ecause of the stupid rogues, "Rain and Wolf will be wondering where I am, Good-bye!" The pretty she-cat was off before the RiverClan apprentice could say another thing, it was sad to picture the friendly cat leaving. He would probaly wake up soon, and forget that she even excisted, and that usually happed, it happened with warriors, other apprentices, and even kits. She felt like she was in a bottomless pit, and this ccat will soo forget Moth and him even met.

[spottedleaf]

"Bye!" Goldenpaw called loud enough for the retreating she-cat to hear. He wanted to see her again. His mind concocted a plan, to be hatched was unknown to him so far, but he could do it. Go to the rouge camp and visit her, one day he was sure he would. His light golden fur was wet again as he slipped into the water, paws churning swiftly in the river. She probally hated him and left as soon as the oppertunity arose. His paws slapped the water and he fixed it easily and quickly. "bye." he whispered again before dissappearing into te direction of the Riverclan camp.
