on Fanfiction. This one's question six
Graystripe sat still as the cool night air played on his fur. His eyes shifted to the pine needles before him. He twitched his whiskers when a rabbit appeared from under cover of a bush, but did not attack. Being on Shadowclan's territory, the prey may as well have been on the other side of the lake.
A dark blur shot out from no where and tackled the rabbit. The cat looked up at Graystripe, rabbit dangling from her jaws. She had a look of suspicion and hostility in her eyes after noticing the Thunderclan cat.
Graystripe dipped his head. "Hello Russetfur."
"What are you doing here?" she spat, dropping her prey.
"Well hello Graystripe. Good day to you too," Graystripe muttered.
"Enough games, Graystripe. Now tell me why are you here."
"You know, you're the third cat to ask me that. Yesterday it was Ivytail. And just a while ago it was Ivytail.
"With good reason. Why are you sitting so close to our territory?"
"What does it matter to you since I'm in my own territory?" Graystripe shot back.
Russetfur growled, unsheathing her claws. Graystripe's fur bristled.
Better watch what you say," she hissed. "Wouldn't want me to claw that pretty little face off, would you?"
"Oh, you think I'm pretty, how sweet," Graystripe taunted. "Can't say the same to you with your bright green eyes!"
Russetfur crouched. Graystripe tensed.
"Graystripe!" The long-haired tom jumped. Brambleclaw, Sorreltail and Mousewhisker crashed through the undergrowth behind him. Looked as if the sunset patrol had arrived.
"What?" Graystripe grumbled.
Brambleclaw's eyes frowned. "What are you doing here? Millie's been looking everywhere for you."
Graystripe shrugged. "Just having a chat with Russetfur about clan borders." He felt satisfied as Russetfur hissed in anger.
"Graystripe, you being a senior warrior should know about not to mess with Shadowclan cats over borders," Brambleclaw scolded.
"Yes mom," Graystripe sighed, stepping aside for the patrol. As the Thunderclan patrol began to re-scent the borders, the gray tom winked at Russetfur. "Until then," he mouthed.
Russetfur smirked, but said nothing as she too left.
A complicated relationship I could see happening that not even Graystripe and Russetfur would agree they were a couple. XD
