Dovewing is one of my favorite characters in Warriors, but she needs to choose between Bumblestripe and Tigerheart! So in this story she will finally make a decision. Personally I'm a DovexBumble fan. (Sorry DovexTiger shippers!)
Chapter 1: Dovewing's Decision
3 moons had passed since the battle against the Dark Forest. Dovewing lost her power, so she couldn't see or hear far away any more. She could, however, imagine what Tigerheart was doing. Even though Dovewing was in ThunderClan and Tigerheart was in ShadowClan, they saw each other almost every night.
Which reminds me, Dovewing thought. I have to see him tonight. But I really shouldn't. We're in different Clans. It'll never work out between us. And besides, I love Bumblestripe too. I have to choose...poor Tigerheart. Bumblestripe is in the same Clan as me, and everyone says we'd be cute together! I just hope Tigerheart understands.
Ivypool, Dovewing's sister, jerked Dovewing out of her thoughts by saying, "Do you want to come hunting with me and Blossomfall?"
"Sure," Dovewing said. Hunting would distract her. Or so she thought. While Dovewing was hunting, all she could think about was what she would say to Tigerheart. She didn't want to break his heart, but she knew she couldn't keep sneaking out every night to see him. Why does this have to be so difficult! Just tell him you can't see him anymore! But I don't want to hurt his feelings... He's from ShadowClan! I can't keep breaking the warrior code. There are plenty of she-cats in ShadowClan. Can't he be in love with one of them?
Dovewing ended up not catching any prey. She felt bad because she knew that the Clan would be hungry. Then she noticed that Ivypool had caught two squirrels and Blossomfall had caught a plump rabbit. At least some cats would eat...probably the kits and elders.
Later Dovewing did battle training with Lionblaze, but instead of training, all he wanted to do was talk about Cinderheart, his mate. "Lucky you," Dovewing muttered under her breath. "You don't have to choose between two cats...one of them is in a different Clan, for crying out loud!"
Finally night came. Dovewing sneaked out of her den to go to ShadowClan territory. She didn't notice that Bumblestripe was following her until she was at the border. Oh no, it's Bumblestripe. He loves me too...and I love him back! But if he sees me with Tigerheart...
"Dovewing, where are you going? You can't be here, it's ShadowClan territory. Come back to camp with me," Bumblestripe said.
"Bumblestripe, there's something I need to do. Don't worry, I'll be back in a few minutes," Dovewing responded.
"What do you have to do?" Bumblestripe asked, confused.
"I can't tell you," Dovewing said. "I'm sorry. I'll explain later." Then she ran into the ShadowClan camp.
The last thing she saw before she got there was Bumblestripe's sad yellow eyes.
