As soon as Sunheart left to stash the squirrel, Eagleclaw put his nose to the wind for some serious hunting. He didn't want to be outdone, catching something was now a matter of pride. A twittering caught the tom's ear and he looked around to find a robin on a low hanging branch. That would work.
Dodging through the dappled woodland shadows, the dark warrior padded up until he was just below the bird, within passable reach. He tensed, readying for the spring. A fly buzzed by, landing on his nosetip, it tickled uncontrollably. Eagleclaw sneezed, jumping up for the robin at the same time. But the sneeze had blown his surprise and he fell back to earth emoty clawed.
Eagleclaw snorted. "Fox dung!" he muttered.

Sunheart walked over to Eagleclaw, "You alright?"she asked. She helped Eagleclaw up to his paws. She shook her head and sat down awaiting a reply. While waiting she started to lick her paws.

Eagleclaw was finding it harder to be good humored. "Of course I'm alright, but that bird had better watch out." He sniffed indignantly. "Are you ready to go now? I think I've had enough of hunting for the day, maybe soon my luck will change." He really hoped it was just bad luck. The alternative, that he just couldn't hunt, was hard to fathom.

"That is true."she mewed, stopping to reply."But you don't have to get mad at the bird or yourself."she mewed, walking up to him. "Come on, lets hunt some more."

((Just cause my cat is being a stuborn hardhead has nothing to do with actual people. I like to imagine what a tom must go through after, shall we say, being shown up))
Frustration was building again, Eagleclaw could feel it. Why did he have to always bottle things up until they exploded? He made a noncommital sound and kneaded the earth beneath his claws. All he really wanted to do was run again, to regain that sense of weightlessnes and freedom.
"Whatever, lead the way."

(Sure)
Sunheart looked down and Eagleclaw's claws and looked back up at him. Sunheart sighed,"Eagleclaw, you go hunting without me. I think that I am just going to go back to camp."she meowed firmly, and walked to her squirrle, dug it up, and walked back to camp with the animal hanging in her jaws. This is so frustrated. I should have just allowed Eagleclaw get mad,she thought.

As much as Eagleclaw was glad that he could blow off some steam, he really didn't want to do it by hunting some more, that would be pointless, he'd get nowhere the way he was going. So instead the dark tom decided to have a good run along the river, try to enjoy the view. True he was sorry to again be on shaky footing as far as Sunheart's feelings were concerned but he didn't want to worsen the situation either.
He came to the moonclan border. This was what caused all the tensions in the clan. Eagleclaw sat and rubbed a paw over his ears, wondering just what to do.

Sunheart put her prey down and looked at her paws.I shoudn't have left like that,she though,Maybe I should go back,before she even got to her paws her mother came.
Goldheart saw her daughter and walked up,"Hi Sunheart."she mewed. She looked at her daughter and knew this was the wrong time, "Sunheart........"she couldn't say anymore, for she didn't like her daughter looking like this.
Sunheart looked at her mother then away, she didn't even answer Goldheart, she just walked back into the forest.

Eagleclaw stared at the moonclan border. He just kept thinking about Leafkit and those dishonorable cats, whoever they were. Someone should make those cats pay for all the worry and strife they had caused the cats of Sunclan. Tentatively, he picked up a paw, uncertain about whether he would cross the border or turn towards camp. The moment seemed to stretch into eternity, as a silent battle took place behind amber eyes.

Sunheart smelled the air for Eagleclaw's scent, and when she cought the scent she didn't like where it was leading to. She started to follow the scent to the border, she stopped at the edge of the forest not wanting to go any further. Eagleclaw......she mind was empty and she didn't know what to say or how to stop him. Once he stepped over that border he was dead.

Some one should make them pay... but Eagleclaw couldn't do it alone. Slowly, drained of energy, he placed his paws firmly on Sunclan territory. Emotions finally spent, the dark warrior turned back towards camp, staring at the ground as though it held the answers to all life's problems, he began to make his way back towards the forest and home.

Sunheart sighed and remebered that she should either get back to camp or hunt. She chose to get back to camp. She stared to walk back to camp looking at the forest around her. Sunheart tried to hurry up before she was spotted by Eagleclaw, she started to run towards camp. She got into camp and went to the warriors den and took a nap.

Sunheart stopped when she heard the voice of another cat. She turned around to see Whiteflame. "Hi Whiteflame."she mewed. Trying to hide her embarassment from running like she was.

Eagleclaw jerked his gaze from the ground to find himself in the presence of two other clan cats. "Oh, hi Whiteflame, Sunheart." His mind went blank. The dark tom shook his head, trying to sort out the buzzing that had occupied it just moments before. Eagleclaw decided to forget his thoughts for the time and try to be cheerful for his clan.
"How's the prey running?"
