&&Sunheart**
Sunheart had been hunting since the sun rose into the sky, and so far the ginger Rex she-cat had captured onvoles and a squirrel She was one of the best hunters in Eclipseclan, being as silent as the wind on a calm day she stalked unsuspecting prey and killed them with a swift and deadly bite. But she never took what she didn’t need, it was in the code and if the other clan members were having this much luck, they could feast tonight and still have some left over. She padded through the forest, maybe it was time to do some patrolling while she was at it, after all you can’t be to careful! She trotted to the border, and looked around. So far there was nothing out of the ordinary, everything was quiet and there were no sign of MoonClan warriors.
Sunheart was a kind she-cat and she was quite content with everything quiet; she had always liked the silence of the world until someone had to come a ruin it. She turned and meowed for the cats following her.

She stalked through the long grass, eyes locked on a rabbit nibbling some foliage. She sprang through the air, silent and streamlined. She bit down on warm flesh and blood oozed into her mouth. She trotted back towards the hunting patrol, the rabbit hanging lifeless in her jaws. She set it down and buried it, swiping her tongue around her jaws. 'Nice day.' she remarked, as the sunlight filtered through the trees and cast warmth on the white and tortoiseshell coat that was Fernpelt, deputy of EclipseClan. |

The one called Spicetalon treaded through the undergrowth. So far, he had only caught a squirrel. He was troubled. Selenekit was missing and his sister was in emotional dispair. What was he to do? He caught up with the she-cats and dropped his squirrel, shaking his head.

Sunheart smiled and nodded to the deputy. "Good morning to you, Fernpelt," she said, also burying her kill. "How's Amethyststar been doing? I haven't seen Cobaltkit around. The last tom I saw was Beaconsong on my nightlong vigil." The Rex warrior padded around cheerily, bathing in the sunlight before looking around. "Isn't Spicetalon coming?" She spotted him and meowed. "Morning, Spicetalon!"

Fernpelt looked troubled. 'I think Amethyststar is going through an emotional time right now. We just need to have faith in her.' she said, licking one paw and drawing it over her ear. |

What? Oh, hello. Spicetalon meowed, totally distracted.

Sunheart rubbed against both Spicetalon and Fernpelt. "Don't worry. You two are both close to her and I'm sure StarClan will give you the strength and power to cheer her up," she said warmly. Even though she thought she wasn't very pretty, Sunheart made up for it in her happiness. She licked Spicetalon's ear. "Did you eat before you left? You look out of it...," she said worriedly.

Fernpelt looked at Spicetalon too. 'It won't help Amethyststar in any way if you've been neglecting yourself. Are you feeling okay?' she asked, a motherly tone creeping into her voice. |

Spicetalon looked at Sunheart. It's Amethyststar. She's lost some kits, and it's bugging me.... He meowed, returning Sunheart's lick.

Fernpelt looked sympathetic. She brushed her pelt against Spicetalon's and smiled at him. 'It'll be alright. Everything happens for a reason, so there's got to be some good that comes out of this, right?' she asked, flicking her tail. |

I can only hope, He blinked his thanks at the two she-cats for comforting him. Shall we hunt some more then? He tried to be cheerful.

'Sure.' Fernpelt mewed, as it started spattering with light rain. 'Great.' she mumbled, then opened her mouth to scent prey. |

Should we just head back with our prey? The rain will either send all the prey away, or the scents will be masked by the scent of rain. Spicetalon cocked his head to one side, and waited for an answer.

Sunheart nodded in agreement with Fernpelt's words. "Spicetalon's right. Fernpelt and I caught some good prey, and I patrolled earlier. I'm okay to go back," she replied, digging up her voles and squirrel. Both were small, but they were food. She smiled at both of them.

Fernpelt waited, testing the air again. 'I think we should just go on a little further, because it may let up under the trees.' she said. 'You two could go back if you want, I'll carry on by myself.' she mewed. She didn't mind hunting in the rain; if anything there were more birds to hunt because the worms came up. |

Sunheart nodded. "I'm going to bring back some fresh-kill for Amethyststar and the queens, Fernpelt. I'll see you back at camp," the Rex warrior said. "I'll go see if my brother and the others are all right from the fight." She nodded to both of them before disappearing into the gorse. The ginger pelted she-cat vanished but not before leaving EclipseClan scent where she was.

'Okay. See you there!' she mewed after Sunheart. She then turned to Spicetalon to see what he would do. |

"I'm going to go back. I need to check on Gillwing, and I promised Littlefox I'd bring her some food. I'll come back out though," He meowed, trotting away. He ran up and caught up with Sunheart. "Sunheart......." He trailed off. How was he to tell her he loved her? The words couldn't be formed out of his mouth. Rain dribbled of his coat and splashed into a puddle. The only sounds that could be heard were the rain dribbling, and the warning call of a bird that must have just missed the claws of a cat.

Sunheart mewed at Spicetalon's call. "Yes? What's up, Spicetalon?" she said. The small warrior purred at the sight of the tom. A waterdrop dropped on her forehead and she mewed indignantly, pawing her head. Her pushed-in nose scrunched in to wipe off the offending water. She sat under a fern leaf to avoid the the rain, meowing for Spicetalon to join her for a moment.

Spicetalon followed her under the rock. "Uhhh.... How do I say this.... Hmm..." He murmured, almost inaudible.

"Ummm...? Yes?" Sunheart said curiously, completely clueless as to what Spicetalon was going to say. The warrior yawned and cleaned her hindleg, waiting for the older tom's words.

"I really like you..." He meowed, almost inaudible. There. He had said it. He scuffled his paws in the dirt, the wet mud not spraying anything.

Sunheart blinked and then smiled warmly. "Why, thank you, Spicetalon, I really like you too. I'm glad to finally found a good warrior friend," she said, completely missing what he was trying to get at. She wasn't pretty or special, besides being a good hunter; there was no way he could be talking about love or anything. He was probably saying it because he has a secret to tell me. Maybe he has a crush on Fernpelt! Sunheart giggled inwardly at the thought, but she was a good secret-keeper.
The she-cat licked his muzzle. "You're a good, strong tom, y'know. I'm sure you'll be able to tell that special she-cat how you feel!" she praised cheerily, misunderstanding. She paused and nodded. "I can keep a secret. Is it Fernpelt you really like?" She ran her tongue down her forepaw.

ooc:// Wow... COMPLETELY oblivious... xD
bic:// Spicetalon looked at her. "No, it's not Fernpelt.... It's nothing... nevermind." HE picked up his squirrel and trotted away, back to camp.

((Lol, she's about to catch on right now...  ))
Sunheart froze for a moment, looking at Spicetalon's retreating frame. It's not Fernpelt? Well then, why would--? Her eyes exploded open. Oh StarClan, I'm such a mousebrain! The ginger Rex she-cat launched herself after the tom. "Spicetalon, wait!" she yowled, breathing heavily when she crouched in front of him. "Is it...me? Why...? I'm...not pretty enough to love. That's why I thought you liked someone else..." The warrior looked at him with a mixture of surprise and desperation. "I mean...I've had a crush on you for what seems like the longest time, but--," she broke off. "Sorry...I'm just a mousebrain after all." Sunheart stared at the ground gloomily, fresh-kill lolling at her paws. |

Spicetalon halted, pricking up his ears. "You mean..... You-I-Us? You like me and I like you...." Spicetalon turned around, dropping his squirrel. "Oh Sunheart...." He whispered.

Sunheart nodded and put her paw on Spicetalon's muzzle. "Look, if you really...don't mind what I look like and all, I'm sure you'll still love me. I mean, 'cause I like you and you're a good friend," she said, licking his ear with a smile. The small she-cat grinned, picking up her kill. "C'mon, Spicetalon, let's put away our kill before it tastes like crowfood," she said, blushing before bounding away with a giggle.

Spicetalon nodded. "I don't care. You are the most beautiful she-cat I have ever seen." He meowed. Spicetalon picked up his squirrel and chased her back to camp.

Sunheart blushed and dropped off her kill at the pile. Licking Spicetalon's muzzle, she smiled. "So...do you...want to take a walk or something? Do you think MoonClan is still sore at us?" the she-cat asked, purring as she rubbed against Spicetalon's chest.
