Nightfeather's Forbidden Love(open, and may need few more warriors)

[-Forest-]

Sootpelt sat high up in the Cross Oak, waiting for Nightfeather to come. Finally, he saw her coming. He purred and lightly jumped down from the tree infront of her. "Hi."

[Nightfeather97]

Nightfeather stopped abruptly. His pelt flashed in the moonlight. "Hi,"she answered.

[-Forest-]

Sootpelt smiled but then looked guilty. "Sorry I hunted in your territory yesterday," he meowed, looking at the floor. "And for being rude. It's just that, being deputy was making me stressed that day."

[Nightfeather97]

Nightfeather grunted.  She looked around not sure what else to say

[-Forest-]

Sootpelt smirked and tilted his head. "Why are you being nervous around me?" he asked, a little bit of laughter in his voice.

[Nightfeather97]

"I'm not nervous, " she turned her attention back to Sootpelt. "I have nothing to say, " Nightfeather said,  lifting her chin.

[-Forest-]

"Really now?" Sootpelt meowed, tilting his head towards her. "So hows the leader then after I left?"

[Nightfeather97]

"He didn't..seem so happy. He just, went angrily into his den and stayed there a long time." Am I breaking the Warrior Code? she thought.

[-Forest-]

Sootpelt tilted his head sideways and looked at her. "You seen reluctunt," he meowed, moving towards her slowly. "We don't have to be here if you don't want too."

[Nightfeather97]

"What are you talking about? Your the one who wanted me to come here. So tell me, why do you want me here?" Nightfeather asked defiantly, waiting for him to answer.

[-Forest-]

"Nightfeather," Sootpelt meowed, looking deeply into her eyes. "Ever since I saw you with your back to the moon, I knew you were the one. You were the one for me. I love you."

[Nightfeather97]

Nightfeather was taken aback. "I-I...." Nightfeather stammered, not sure how to react. She looked down at her paws. What now? she thought.

[-Forest-]

Sootpelt looked away as he felt his pelt get hotter. "It's ok if you don't like me back," he meowed, slightly disappointed. "I understand."

[Nightfeather97]

"No-I...I think your..very sweet," Nightfeather looked back up at him. Her eyes grew dark. A chilling shadow washed over her.

Resist! Remember about us! Don't give in! A sharp, deep voice sounded in her head.

NO! she shrieked in her head. Nightfeather tried shaking the voices away.

RESIST!

Nightfeather couldn't take it. She pelted off into the dark forest that loomed behind her.

[-Forest-]

Sootpelt sighed before climbing the Middle Oak and laying on one of the branches where he slept a very sad sleep.
