Author's Note: Oh wow. This will be my first ever Warriors fanfiction. I've only read the first prophecy and half of the second… So um, hopefully the characters will be IC and all… And yeah, enjoy?
Sitting on the Side
Disclaimer: I do not own Warriors or its cat…kitties… Yeah… I'll shut up now…
Sandstorm, the beautiful pale ginger she-cat, curled around her warm furry body. Lying on the soft grass, she thought of how the beautiful the weather was.
And how handsome Firestar had grown up to be…
She didn't know why… At first, when the kittypet had arrived in their – the great Thunder Clan – forest life, she thought of nothing more than to discriminate the newly arrival. She and Darkstripe both, held their fur against the current Thunder Clan warrior at the time.
She smiled softly as a cat could, the thought of it amused her now… However… Darkstipe…was her friend and now a traitor to the clan as is Tigerstar…
No… He didn't even deserve to be called a leader that – traitorous cat!!
She snarled under her breath but quickly calmed herself down so that she could relax. After all, Cinderpelt had told her that she needed as much rest as she could. Having two kits and having a clan leader as a…
…very close friend.
She felt that her furry cheeks were feeling a bit warm all of a sudden and got up quickly, moving under some shade so she wouldn't be feeling quite as warm.
Spottedleaf…
The deceased former medicine cat before Yellowfang whom Firestar had grown to love…
Why did she think of the medicine cat all of a sudden?
She blinked furiously as she felt a knot in her stomach tighten. Jealousy was it? That Spottedleaf had been the first she-cat to catch Firestar's attention?
No, she shook her head, she shouldn't even be thinking like that… It just wasn't…fair of her to…
Sighing, she got up once again and raced back to the campsite just as Firestar's voice came.
"Graystripe, Cloudtail, Ashfur, take a group of patrols and look around the Thunderpath. Sandstorm! I need to talk to you…"
Ears perking up, she walked over to her beloved and wondered what he wanted to talk about.
"Now Ferncloud has just had some kits and… they'll be old enough in a couple of moons… Would you…"
She held her breath.
"…mind babysitting?"
And let it go. Feeling a bit deflated, she nodded and opened her jaws to speak only to be interrupted by a touch on the nose.
"Don't worry, one of them… Someday… You'll mentor them…" A slow curve on his jaw.
"Ah…" she replied, snuggling closer and feeling content with having his fur so close to hers. "Thank you…"

Author's Note: Did I mention that this is the first ficcie that I've ever done with animals? (that aren't human?) Jeez… sorry if anyone is OOC or if it was just plain short… Think of it as a…drabble! Yeah, that's it! A drabble! Alright, I'll stop blabbing but before that…
Mind giving me some advice or telling me your thoughts in a review? Un-betaed.
