Chapter 1 ;
''Was the camp always so noisy?'' thought Cinderfire. "I think I need some time alone." she continued.
She made her way to the tunnel, then saw Lionblaze. He didn't know, but she really liked him. ''Probably more than I should, considering Icecloud seemed to be padding after him all the time.''
Too late. Lionblaze saw her. ''Hey Cinderfire, want to go hunting?'' "Um... Sure!"Cinderfire replied. ''Just you and me?'' She asked. "Hey, why not! We never seem to hang out anymore.'' He said. "Only because Icecloud takes up most of your time." She thought.
They padded out of the tunnel, Lionblaze leading the way. "Which way, Lionblaze?" ''Hmm... I kinda wanted you out here to talk to you..." He replied hesitently. "Sure, whats up?" "Do you like me? Enough to be my mate?" Lionblaze finally drawled out.
"Did he really just ask that?" "Cinderfire?" "OhmyStarClan, Lionblaze, what about Icecloud?" "Why did I just ask that! I wanted this forever!"
"Itold her I didn't like her like that, and we should be good friends. Besides, haven't you seen her and Mousewhisker?"
It was true. She did seem to like him, much more than friends. And Lionblaze, at that. She then remembered what he asked her.
"OhmyStarClan, Lionblaze, I wanted you to ask me forever! Yes, I will be your mate!" Lionblaze exhaled in relief. ''I was afraid you would say no for a minute, because you seemed to like Thornclaw."
"Heavens no, Lionblaze, he's wayy too old." Cinderfire said.
They spent the night in the woods, coming back as if they both had the best night ever.
Moons later ;
"Lionblaze, come here." Cinderfire ordered. "Follow me." She led him up to the place where they had spent the first night together. "Lionblaze, I'm pregnant." Lionblaze gasped. "OhmyStarClan, Cinderfire, how? When? With me?" "No Lionblaze, I got pregnant by all the warriors of StarClan." She replied, heavy on the sarcasm.
"Cinderfire, this is... StarClan, this is amazing!" Lionblaze gasped out. "Lionblaze, these kits... they are going to be the best thing in the world for us. "Cinderfire, I know. Lionblaze said. "Lionblaze, I love you." "I love you too Cinderfire, more than you could ever know.
They spent the rest of the night together, and had three powerful, beautiful kits, Lightningkit, Swirlkit, and Thunderkit.
