Ayeee :D This is my challenge book, which is pretty self explanatory, but I will be doing challenges for my forums! I am proud to say that my first challenge will be for Lakeclan, Home to the Lynx.
Feathertail x Crowfeather
Feathertail sighed. Her heart ached for Crowfeather- How sweet it was for him to have his named dedicated to her.
She gazed down at him everyday, watching over him, even when he visited Leafpool.
Feathertail closed her eyes and put her paws over her eyes, hearing Crowpaw's desperate howl when she died- right in front of his eyes. She saw Crowfeather saving Leafpool, admitting his love for her.
She shut her eyes tighter. She knew she had told them that they were a wonderful couple, but there was no barrier that could stop her jealousy raging inside of her.
Oh, how her heart ached whenever she watched down at her beloved Crowfeather and Leafpool together, twining tails and showing signs of affection. What she would do to take Leafpool's place! If only it was her, instead of Leafpool twining tails and murmuring into his pelt.
She couldn't think about these things anymore. She was dead, for Starclan's sake! She would never be there with him. Her mind flashed with the memories of her and Crowpaw, from the journey to the sun-drown place. How sweet, when Crowpaw had asked her to go hunting with him, alone.
Feathertail let out a sigh, and sat up, her eyes bleary from drowsiness. Suddenly, she saw a broad-shouldered cat, it's sleek pelt so dark it shone black in the moonlight, with eyes a deep blue color.
"Feathertail!" He breathed, staring wide eyed at the silver she-cat. As he stared at her, Feathertail's slender frame seemed to glow in the moonlight, lighting the area with a eerie silver glow. He blinked, staring at her, taking in her beauty.
"Crow-Crowfeather… I- It's you.." Feathertail stammered, eyes watering.
"Why are you here? This- This is where Starclan dwells, not where you belong.. You-You belong with Leafpool.." Feathertail's heart caught in her throat.
"I'm here because I came to see you, Feathertail, not Leafpool. I love you! You're special to me, that's why I asked to name myself Crowfeather, in honor of you, my love." Crowfeather meowed, leaning forward to touch noses.
Feathertail stiffened at the touch, and looked down at her paws. "Leafpool's in your heart, Crowfeather," she mewed softly, licking his cheek. "I'm dead!" She cried out in despair, streams of tears falling down her face.
"No, Feathertail- You are wrong, you will never be dead to me. You'll have a special place in my heart. I would- I would never love anyone as more than you, Feathertail! You've been in my heart since the journey, and you will be for the rest of my life- Until I join you in Starclan, where I'll be your mate for eternity- We will walk with the stars then, together. I promise that." Crowfeather licked her head lovingly, twining his tail with hers.
Feathertail looked up, her gaze warm and radiant with sunshine. "For now, you must walk with your clanmates- It is not your time to join your ancestors. I'll be waiting for you, I'll be waiting for the times we can walk beyond the stars. I love you. Don't ever forget that."
As Crowfeather watched her slowly fade, he stared at the path to Starclan, and awaited the day that Feathertail would guide him there.
When Feathertail slowly walked the path back, shedding tears, she knew- she knew, that Crowfeather would keep his promise, and he would always love her.
