Yo peoples, my second challenge here, again for Blazeclan.
Forbidden Love
Birds chirped quietly. Rosepaw padded into the forest. Pride swelled in her lungs; this was her hunting assessment! All she needed to do was catch back enough prey. Heading towards the ShadowClan border, her paws rushed with anticipation. The luscious scent of soft mouse wafted into her nose. As she hurtled on, heading closer and closer to the border, she lost all sense of direction. The wind rushed through her black-and-white pelt and she charged through.
Mouse! she thought. I'm going to catch you!
It was just then that she body-slammed with a big soft bulky item. Shock overtook her like a wave.
'Mouse dung!' she spat, staggering backwards. 'I- oh.'
In front of her was a big, cream-coloured ShadowClan tom. In the weak sunlight his pelt shone like gold and his head was held high.
'Great StarClan!' Rosepaw gasped. 'I- I'm so sorry, I wasn't looking where I was going...'
'That's okay,' the tom inturrupted, smiling at her. 'I won't tell anyone.'
Rosepaw's head swam. She felt dizzy. 'I- I better go,' she mumbled.
'So soon?' the tom's tail drooped. 'Not that I want to- I mean- oh, never mind,' he sighed, turned his back away from her and padded away.
Rosepaw watched him leave, every muscle anticipating agony.
'Wait!' she called. 'What's your name? I'm Rosepaw.'
The tom looked back, his eyes brimming with sadness, but he didn't answer. Instead he said, 'There is no hope; our love is forbidden.' Then he left.
Rosepaw's heart plummeted. But he was right.
This love is forbidden...
Aaww, a little heartbreak there! So, tell me what you think. I know it's really short compared to what I usually do, but this was only an 150 word challenge.
