DISCLAIMER: I DON'T OWN WARRIORS!

Hey everyone, it's Ivy! (My real name is Jayden, but I go by Ivy on here, feel free to call me Jay, LOL) okay so, I know that with my last story, I promised that I would update a week later and then it took me more than a year. I'm so sorry everyone. But with this story, I promise you it will be different! I will update whenever I get the chance (Possibly every day!) So, here's the story!

Ivypool woke up to the sunlight shining right in her face. She stretched out in the warm sun and purred. Life was good. Now that the Dark Forest was gone and Ivypool could actually sleep at night, she was feeling a lot better. And it wasn't just her life that was good, it was the clan's. Her sister, Dovewing, was expecting Bumblestripe's kits and her former mentor, Cinderheart, was expecting her friend, Lionblaze's kits. Fresh-kill was rich, kits were being born, and the clan's were thriving. Ivypool stood up and padded out of the warriors den. After the battle, the clan expanded the warriors den, making room for Ivypool, Cherrypelt, and Moleclaw, the two newest warriors in ThunderClan. Ivypool noticed that most the cats were crowded around Squirrelflight, the clan deputy.

"Ivypool, there you are!" The deputy called out to her. "I want you, Seedpaw, Lilypaw, and Lionblaze to go on a border patrol to the ShadowClan border." She commanded. "Okay," Ivypool mewed and then she and the three other cats padded out of camp. While Seedpaw and Lilypaw ran up ahead, meowing excitedly, Ivypool and Lionblaze stuck behind. "You must be really happy for Dovewing!" He exclaimed. "I am! And for you and Cinderheart! I mean everyone's having kits nowadays!" Ivypool purred. "Except for you though, when are you going to get a mate?" Lionblaze questioned. "I don't know, probably when Seedpaw and Lilypaw become warriors." Ivypool responded. But that wasn't the full truth.

Ivypool didn't have a mate yet because no cat in ThunderClan was practically available. Ivypool knew a lot of cats in ThunderClan still feared her because she was spying on the Dark Forest. It had taken a lot of courage and Ivypool didn't even know how she had managed to do it. "Well, Seedpaw and Lilypaw will be warriors soon!" Lionblaze pressed the conversation. Ivypool knew he was doing this on purpose; Lionblaze just loved to make her mad. By now, the cats had finally made it to the border. As they marked the territory, a ShadowClan patrol arrived. "Greetings," Crowfrost, a ShadowClan warrior, dipped his head to the cats. "Hello Crowfrost," Lionblaze greeted the tom and his patrol. The patrol was made up of Crowfrost, Starlingwing, Dawnpelt, and Tallpoppy. "How is everything in ThunderClan?" Tallpoppy asked. "Everything is well, and how about ShadowClan?" Ivypool mewed. "Same," Starlingwing growled, as if not wanting to reveal to much stuff.

Then, Ivypool realized that he was only looking at her. Odd, Ivypool thought and she just focused on other ShadowClan cats. Finally, the cats had marked their territories and began to leave. Ivypool then noticed Starlingwing look back at her with a look in his eyes. Whatever, Ivypool decided to ignore whatever he was doing and focus on her life. When they had gotten back to camp, all the cats were gathered outside the nursery. "Cinderheart's having her kits!" Bumblestripe exclaimed to Ivypool. Lionblaze let out a yelp and ran inside the nursery. Ivypool followed him in. Dovewing was sitting next to Cinderheart, soothing her along with Daisy. Jayfeather was making herb poultices and forcing Cinderheart to eat them. But when he scented Ivypool and Lionblaze entering the den, he immediately got up and pushed the two out of the den. "Stay out until I'm done!" The blind medicine cat hissed before stalking back inside.

Jayfeather was Lionblaze's younger littermate. They had a sister, Hollyleaf, but she died during the Great Battle. Saving me, Ivypool thought, grief flooding through her. Hawkfrost, Ivypool's Dark Forest mentor, had been a heartbeat away from killing Ivypool. But then, Hollyleaf had beaten him off and made him run off, but there was a price to pay. Ivypool somewhat felt that Lionblaze and Jayfeather still secretly blamed her for the death of their littermate. After several moments of waiting, Jayfeather padded out of the den. "Congratulations! Two she-cats and two toms!" Jayfeather exclaimed. Lionblaze let out a yowl of happiness and sprinted into the den. Ivypool followed after him, but more slowly. She padded in the den to see four beautiful kits sleeping beside Cinderheart.

The first tom was gray like his mother with blue eyes. "We'll name him, Ashkit." Lionblaze murmured. The next tom was ginger just like Firestar with green eyes. "Firekit," Cinderheart named him wearily. The first she-cat was black and had green eyes. She looked identical to Hollyleaf. "Hollykit," Lionblaze mewed, sorrow in his eyes. The last kit was a golden she-cat with amber eyes. "Goldenkit," Cinderheart finally decided before curling up and falling asleep. After congratulating Cinderheart and Lionblaze, Ivypool padded to the warriors den and got settled down in her own nest. As she closed her eyes, she could help feeling jealous. Lionblaze was right. Ivypool needed a mate. She was feeling far too lonely. Ivypool sighed and closed her eyes and fell asleep.
