Thank you for those who have waited. I know it hasn't been to to log since I last updated but I know everyone wants to know what happens to Eagletail but I've been busy so yeah I'm sorry but thank you.
The forest was thickly condensed with trees and a sickly green fog billowed around Eagletail's feet. A smell of death reeked from the ground up and Eagletail nearly threw up.
"Welcome Eagletail." Peachblossom mewed before stepping out from behind a tree.
"Hello Peachblossom." Eagletail said; trying to be formal. "Why have you brought me here?"
"To speak of course. I can feel the emotions you feel towards me. Confusion, desire, and anger. Your confused on why I suddenly showed up. You have the desire to make me yours. And your angry at your brother because if not for him you would have had everything you ever dreamed for." She said circling the warrior.
Her scent smelled nothing like the forest surrounding them. She smelled like honey wrapped in a greenleaf breeze. She was just too perfect. "How can I make you mine?" Eagletail asked.
"It's simple. You have to die but it a certain way." Peachblossom told him.
Eagletail looked at her shocked. "I have to die!"
"If we are to be together. Yes. Don't leave me alone here Eagletail. I need you. I have loved you since I watched your birth. I was suppose to be born along with you. In the same clan even. But I was born somewhere else. And earlier than my own prophecy. But you. You still have the chance to change your destiny. Your still young. You can still have everything."
Eagletail watched her stop in front of him and stare into his eyes. "But what about my brother?"
"Your brother stole everything from you! He stole away the kits that should've been yours! He stole the clan you should've led! He stole the cat you had fallen in love with! That's not what a brother does." Peachblossom said.
Eagletail's fur was bristling. His tail lashed and his teeth were bared in a snarl. He looked back up at Peachblossom and said, "what do I need to do?"
Eagletail led his patrol down towards the Riverclan border. His patrol consisted of Snowowl, Darkfleck, Leapstride, and Poppystep. They padded around Sunningrocks and silently re-scented the borders.
The moment they finished they traveled back to camp and separated. "Hey Eagletail!" Snowowl called.
"Yes Snowowl?" Eagletail said turning to look at the new warrior.
"Are you okay? You seem...distracted." She said as if trying to say the right word.
"I'm fine." He said turning his back on her.
"I know your hiding something!" She called at him.
"What do you know? Your only a new warrior." He hissed.
"I saw her." She said in a low voice. The other warriors weren't paying them any attention so she continued. "I saw her at my warrior ceremony and I saw the way you looked at her."
"That's impossible." Eagletail snarled.
"She's a pale ginger she cat with gray specks and white back legs and muzzle." She meowed. "She's a real pretty cat but she's dead Eagletail. You don't plan on dying to be with her do you?"
"It doesn't matter what you think or what I do! It's not like you would care!" Eagletail hissed furiously.
"Actually I do care what happens to you because I love you Eagletail!" She yowled. The warriors looked over their way but they were still a little too far a way to really hear what Snowowl had just said.
Eagletail looked at her in utter shock. "What?" He said.
"I love you Eagletail. From the moment you had saved me from the battle with Shadowclan over the territory they stole. Remember that? You leaped onto Spiderclaw because I was an apprentice and he was about to actually kill me. You saved me. I loved you from that moment on." She mewed. Her eyes sparked with pain and Eagletail could clearly see the tears forming. She blinked and all the pain was replaced by anger. "But why would you care about me? I'm only a new warrior and all! Plus you'd rather die for her and never have kits of your own and watch them grow up in your clan! You'd rather die for some cat who's already lived their life!"
"Snowowl I-" Eagletail began but was cut off.
"No just forget about it! It's obvious you never felt the same! I was such a fool." She whispered to herself. She pushed her way past Eagletail and ran back into the forest towards home.
"Snowowl wait!" Eagletail called but she was already to far gone. Just then Poppystep padded up.
"What was that about." She asked.
Eagletail looked at her still confused himself and said, "I don't know."
"Did she confess?" Darkflecks deep mew asked.
"Confess what? That she loved me? Yes. She did." Eagletail mewed.
"Don't you feel the same. I mean come on she's always around you and you guys talk a lot. She always told me that she tried to clue you in on her feeling but that you were too stubborn to realize it." Leapstride said padding up.
Eagletail thought back to all the times Snowowl had been in his spot waiting for him, always so excited to see him, ask him how he was, talk to him. Suddenly Eagletail felt a pang in his heart and pushed past the warriors. "Let go back to camp." He said. He ran off not checking to see if his patrol was following. When they arrived at camp Eagletail quickly left again and tore back to Sunningrocks.
When he got back he immediately called out, "Peachblossom! Peachblossom!" Suddenly her scent reached him and he turned around. "Oh Peachblossom how could I be so blind! I never knew how Snowowl felt about me!"
"Calm down love. She's only jealous that you love me more that's all. You know it's me you want." She said walking around Eagletail.
"Yeah but I'm not so sure now. What if this pang in my heart is...love?"
"It's not!" Peachblossom suddenly hissed. "It's only false love! It's me you love! Not her!"
Eagletail stepped away from her but she then softened up. "Don't worry love. This is just a set back. I sense trouble coming from Riverclan. That's your chance to come to me. But you have to do something that'll make you come to me and no other cat."
"Anything Peachblossom! I'll do anything!" Eagletail said desperately.
She put her muzzle against his ear and whispered into his ear, "kill her my love."
Eagletail jumped back from her and lashed his tail. "I won't do that!" He yowled.
"You must Eagletail! I've already told you that the love is false! You have to pick a side between me or-"
"Me." A voice said. Eagletail an Peachblossom looked into the thick brush on their right and Snowowl stepped out. "Pick between one of us Eagletail. It's either me the one who truly loves you. Or her. The one who's lying about who she is." Snowowl said staring at Peachblossom.
"What do you mean?" Eagletail growled. His pelt was bristling from what Peachblossom had just told him.
"She's not a Starclan cat. She's from the Dark Forest." Snowowl said.
"What?" Eagletail said suddenly feeling weak.
"I was there last night when you visited her. I don't know how but I was. I heard what she said. This morning I went and ask Yellowfoot what Starclan looked like and he described the opposite of what I saw. She lying to you Eagletail. She doesn't love you."
"That's a lie! I love Eagletail more than you ever will! We were destined for each other!" Peachblossom snarled.
"If you were destined you wouldn't reek of Riverclan and death!" Snowowl hissed.
"Your from Riverclan! And your from the Dark forest!" Eagletail yowled astonished.
"I disguised my scent around you because I didn't think I would be scented or seen by anyone else." Peachblossom said lightly at Eagletail. "That doesn't change how I feel about you."
"It does for me. I'm a loyal clan cat. I will never kill any cat. And now I know who I want to be my mate." Eagletail growled before walking to Snowowl's side.
"No! Eagletail please! Give me another chance! I'll tell you only the truth! I won't hide me scent! I still love you." Peachblossom whined.
"I don't." Eagletail growled. "Let's go home Snowowl." Eagletail murmured into Snowowl's ear. She nodded and followed Eagletail.
"You don't know what you just did!" Peachblossom called after them. Then inside Eagletail's head. "I'll always be watching. And I'll make your life as awful as I can."
Eagletail threw the threat over his shoulder and brushed his pelt against Snowowl's. "I love you Eagletail." She murmured.
"I think I love you too."
