AN: Blackstar won the leader's poll on my profile, so he gets a special oneshot about him! Yay! So at popular demand, I give you this.
When I was banished with Brokenstar, every cat in the forest thought me to be cold, cruel. They were right. I had murdered in cold blood, I had stood by and watched my leader slaughter my Clanmates and the other innocent cats of the forest. I deserved to die a painful death, and spend eternity dwelling in the Place of No Stars. A fitting end for a traitor like me.
Only one cat in my entire Clan thought me to be good. Tallpoppy. We had been the best of friends since kithood, running, fighting, playing. We were even made warriors together.
She became my mate shortly after. I love her like nothing else. When I returned to ShadowClan victorious as the new deputy of the mighty Tigerstar, we sat together at her favorite spot in the territory, a small clearing that let in sun in, making shimmering claw marks through the air.
Tallpoppy always told me that I was the noblest, bravest warrior in all the Clans, even in the nursery. I worked hard to live up to what she had said, but as an apprentice and young warrior, I thought it was ambition. I know better know. It was love.
Toadfoot, Applefur, Marshclaw, listen to me. My beloved kits, I am cold and heartless, and yet as I lay here, on my last life, I feel alive. I feel free. For the first time, I feel good, and it warms my heart to know that I will spend my last moments with you.
Tallpoppy? It is my time. Shall we?
Goodbye my kits. Your mother is calling.
AN: I am going through my angsty romance phase. Please excuse me.
