Chapter 7: Half Moons Return.

Jayfeather was dashing through the bramble, searching for Half Moon's lush scent, but he found nothing. He checked everywhere. Where is she, Jayfeather thought. She couldn't be in another Clans territory, could she? Jayfeather was about to give up when, his sight returned. His heart jumped for joy. He took a step in each direction and then headed north. He found her sent and followed it.

The scent bobbed and weaved everywhere. After a few minutes of searching the trail lead to the old fox den. The den had become a twisting trap of tunnels, but Jayfeather knew his way around. He hoped into the hole and started down the long tunnel.

"Half Moon…." Jayfeather called, hoping she heard him. Nothing came back. He padded further into the tunnels. These tunnels were shallow and let a far amount of light in. Enough to see with but not to fight or hunt. Jayfeather closed his eyes and followed his mate's sweet scent further into the tunnels. After a while, the scents lead up to a small hollow. Half Moon's scent was extremely strong.

Half Moon!" Jayfeather thought blissfully. He dashed up to the hollow. When he saw it he gasped.

It was beautiful. The hollow had lush moss and grass all around the floor. Water pooled into a small hole in a large stone. And there was a gap in the wall that looked out onto a large, lush, beautiful meadow. The place was beautiful, but Half Moon was not there. He padded into the den. His sight let him know she was here. He looked around, confused. Where is she, he thought. She should be here.

Then all of a sudden something attacked him. He tumbled over from the sudden leap of his attacker. The cat pinned him to the ground. He closed his eyes and waited for the next strike. He felt breathing on his neck, he was going to die.

"Got yaw love." Jayfeather's eye shot open to see Half Moon lumbering over him. "My my, your in a pretty vulnerable position right now. I could do what ever I wanted to you and you couldn't stop me. (Author comment, Giggity) You're lucky I wouldn't do that to you. Now Whispering Breeze, not so much."

"Half Moon, get off of me," Jayfeather meowed. She did and not then a second after Jayfeather leaped at her. Surprised, Jayfeather easily pinned her covering her face in affectionate licks. "Oh Half Moon you're here you're really here. I've missed you so much. I'm so happy you came." Half Moon made no attempt to escape, perfectly happy with the amount of love her mate was giving her. Slightly hoping he would go lower on her body. (Author comment Giggity) Jayfeather stopped and let her up. She nuzzled his muzzled.

"I've missed you tom," She pusher herself closer to him. "Now can we finish what we started in your dreams?" Jayfeather then noticed the sweet, kind of musky smell in the air.

"Still in the heat I see," he meowed. "Sorry, I can't yet." Half Moon sighed.

"Oh well, it was worth a try," They started to talk about all that had occurred, from Leafpool to Lionblaze and Cinderheart. All the while the cuddled one another, drinking in each others scent. After about an hour later they both got tired. Half Moon and Jayfeather decided to go to sleep. Jayfeather snuggled up to Half Moon. He quickly fell asleep to her sweet scent and steady breathing. That night he dreamed of seeing his kits paling around as he and Half Moon watched them happily play around. He turned and looked at her with love in his and her eyes. He touched his muzzle to hers. Then it faded, and he woke to the two things he felt he had been neglected, his sight and Half Moon. Then he realized what time it was. It was pre-dawn, if he didn't get back to camp soon, his clanmates would come looking for him.

"Half Moon… Half Moon… come on love, wake up," Jayfeather whispered. Half Moon stirred. She lazily opened her eyes. She smiled at him and licked his face once.

"Good morning, Jay's Wing. What's the hurry?" Half Moon purred. Jayfeather touched his muzzle to hers.

"I have to go," Jayfeather meowed. "My clanmates will come looking for me if I don't return soon, but I'll come back tonight." Half Moon looked at Jayfeather with an understanding face.

"Ok," Half Moon meowed. "Go back to your camp, be careful." Jayfeather smirked.

"Well with you being a secret you're the one who needs to be careful," Half Moon smirked too.

"I suppose I do," Half Moon paused. "Hurry up with your tasks or I might just have to get the kits without your consent." (author comment Giggity) Jayfeather shivered. Then he headed for the tunnel entrance. When he emerged he quickly padded into his blind zone and hurried toward camp. When he arrived, he had just barely dodged the dawn patrol. As he entered the medicine cat's den and his sight returned, he relaxed knowing he had a real good spirit lifter in his life, one that will bring more lifters and tone that he would see every night and hopefully live with one day.

Ok that was a good one right, so please review, no flames as always. Posting as soon ASAP or when I remember.
