Chapter 1:: When rouge meets clan-cat

 "Fallingpaw? Are you all right?" Redpaw, A ginger tabby she-cat with one green eye and one blue eye, followed Fallingpaw from camp. "Huh? Oh, sorry Redpaw, It's nothing. I'll just go on walking ahead." Redpaw gave her a doubtful look but nodded and headed back to camp. Fallingpaw looked at a large spread out tree, branches every where, perfect to climb. About 4 branches up was a lone tom, looking down at her, his tail swaying back and forth. Curiosity filled his eyes as she stared at him back. "Your the first to notice me." Him talking startled Fallingpaw, but she soon re-gained he composure. "How could I not notice when you keep on staring at me?" She replied with a hint of anger in her voice. "Hmph! See, this is why I don't like clan cats at times, always so serious about random things." He had a mocking tone to his voice, which only resulted to her getting madder. "Why only stare at me then?" She tried to stay calm the best she could. "Only you...?" He looked like he was thinking about it himself. "Because  you notice me, the first to notice me in a long time." Fallingpaw just gazed at him confused. "Wanna climb up here to?" His question shook her out of her thoughts. "ShadeClan cats don't climb, or more like don't know how." Her body was aching to try and climb though, she had always wanted to try. "Want me to teach you then?" He was chuckling under his reply. "How can I be so sure that your not going to let me fall? I don't even know your name." "My name is Splashingamber, but anyone who knows me calls me by Splash. Now, your name, It's not fair that I don't know yours." She hesitated but answered. " My names Fallingpaw. Your names strange Splash, Splashingember sounds like a clan name." "Bah! Every one says that. It's not normal to have that kind of name, but thats my parents fault not mine," He paused for a moment before continuing, "Speaking of which, where are your parents? I haven't seen any tom or older she-cat with you that look like you." Fallingpaw's tail drooped down sadly. "I don't know. No one will tell me if they even know which clan I was born in. All I know about my parents is that I look like my father. I over heard some elders talking about me and my parents. Only heard that though." Splash's ears perked up at that. "You've only known that your entire life?" Fallingpaw nodded. Without realizing it, she had already climbed up the tree and was laying on the same branch as him. "Interesting, my parents had to leave me while protecting their home. I know my mother died then, and my father died soon after from blood loss." "That's-" Fallingpaw was cut off from hearing her name. "Fallingpaw! Where are you?" "Gah! That's Soaringpaw, I've gotta go." Fallingpaw quickly jumped off the tre, going from branch to branch. "Hey, Fallingpaw, you'll meet me here again won't you?" Fallingpaw turned her head around, "Sure, but make sure to come at sun-down!" She ran off after that. "Where were you Fallingpaw! You know better than to run away into the forest for more then a sun-drops!(hours)" Soaringpaw exclaimed before realizing her scent. "Yes I kn-" "Fallingpaw! Where were you! You smell like rouge!" What are y-" "Don't tell me you were meeting a rouge out there!" "Soaringpaw! Calm down! Yes, I did meet a rouge, but-" "I knew it! What happened?" "Would you listen!" Soaringpaw's interruptions were getting on her nerves. "I met a rouge, yes, but, He was watching me constantly, ever since I became an apprentice. He showed up in that tree over there, I asked him why he was watching me, he said he was just curious. His name was Splash." Soaringpaw was looking at her with curiosity about if anything happened. "And before you ask, I promised I'd talk to him again at sun-down." Fallingpaw sighed, she watched him look at her with laughter in his eyes. "Please keep this a secret Soaringpaw!" Fallingpaw was begging at this rate. "Calm down, Calm down! Of course I'd keep this a secret! You may end up going against the warrior code, but what can I do? Break your promise to him? Yeah right! Best friends are meant to keep secrets for each other!" Soaringpaw said this brightly, looking at her happily. Fallingpaw sighed in relief. "Thank you."
