Sparkfur then led Swiftstar through a twist of trees that seemed unfamiliar. "Hm, I haven't this part of the forest before." Swiftstar meowed. Sparkfur looked back at her, with a knowing look in his eye.
"We keep ourselves well hidden in the trees, and rarely leave our scent on the ground. You probably thought this was rouges territory." Sparkfur said. After that heartbeat, Cloudfrost said something to Sparkfur, almost inaudible, probably he didn't want Swiftstar to hear. But she could just catch it. "Don't tell her too much.... She is from a different clan....." But She pretended like she didn't hear.
They wear now breaking out into a run, and with Swiftstar's bad shoulder, it was hard for her to catch up. Almost until she couldn't stand it, after one point she stopped entirely, panting hard.
It only took the Hawkclan cats a moment to realize that she'd fallen behind, and rushed over.
Sparkfur was the first to come back. He looked at Swiftstar with pure concern, but She took that as pity. A sudden flush of and coursed through her. "Are you okay?" he meowed.
"I'm.....Okay!" she hissed through her teeth, glaring at him with almost pure hatred. Sparkfur almost jumped, and when he looked back his eyes were filled with hurt. "Okay...." he mumbled.
But as they kept going, her shoulder acted up again. This time she almost collasped. "Sparkfur this time helped her with-out asking. But she was to tired to complain.
And as they made the rest of the journey, Sparkfur's eyes never left her.
