Traveling Paws RPG

Jessiepaw bounded along the ShadowClan border, sniffing for food. Finally, the young tom scented a rabbit. Moments later, he saw the brown fluff of fur and dashed after it, his muscular legs pumping beneath him. After time, Jessiepaw was standing over the dead rodent, a smile across his face. But as he lifted his head to scent the air, it wasn't ShadowClan, it was...WindClan?! The tom picked up the rabbit quickly and began to shuffle back into his territory, hoping no one would see or smell him.

Jessiepaw gulped. "Er, um, Jessiepaw." he admitted quietly, flicking his tail nervously.

Jessiepaw glanced at the ground, his claws sliding in and out. "It was an accident." he grumbled, annoyed that this apprentice was bossing him around. Hadn't she ever made a mistake? The tom shook out his long fur, something that looked nothing like his sisters short creamy fur. Jessiepaw glanced at the rabbit he had set at his paws, biting his lip.

Jessiepaw glared at Rosepaw and lashed his tail. "Oh, why does it matter? Just take it." he grumbled, kicking the rabbit over to Rosepaw. "I don't even like rabbit, anyways." Well, that was a lie. But it wasn't his. Thinking he was done, the tom turned his back and began padding back into the marshy forests of ShadowClan, ignoring the hunger gnawing at him.

Jessiepaw turned his head. "Yes?" he meowed, dragging the word out. What did she want? To take him to her leader?

Jessiepaw's eyes widened. "T-thank you." he meowed, picking up the rabbit and slowly walking off, glancing at Rosepaw every few moments.

At that, Jessiepaw bounded off back into ShadowClan territory. Once he was safely home, the tom felt himself blushing under his pelt. Why was he blushing? It was a WindClan she-cat. He couldn't have a crush on her! Did he?

Who cares, he was going back tomorrow!

Jessiepaw dropped off his prey just as Cherrypaw limped out of the medicine cat den. "How's your leg?" he questioned. His sister shrugged. "Getting better. Want to share that rabbit with me?" Jessiepaw shrugged, dropping to his stomach. "Sure." he meowed, taking a bit. Cherrypaw bit in, then spit it out. "Ew, Jessiepaw! Did you catch this on WindClan territory? It's tasteless!" Jessiepaw, not paying attention to his sister, didn't answer. He was lost in thought.

"Jessiepaw!" Cherrypaw meowed, nudging him. Jessiepaw shot his head up. "What?" he mumbled, rising to his paws clumsily. Cherrypaw snorted. "I asked you a question." The tom just shrugged and walked away, leaving the rabbit and his confused sister.

That night, Jessiepaw lay curled up in his mossy nest but not sleeping. That was one thing the tom couldn't do. But finally, he felt himself drifting off. The next morning, Jessiepaw woke up extra early so he could get out of camp unnoticed. The tom slipped past Spiderwick, who was on patrol, and then sprinted to the border. Why was he doing this? He was going to get caught! I have to see Rosepaw.

Jessiepaw walked along the border, paying attention to his surroundings. Finally, he scented Rosepaw. "Rosepaw?" he meowed, genuinely surprised. He hadn't expected her to show up. "Hi." he said quickly, blushing. "Why are you here?"
