Yeah! It's Win A Date With Leafpool time! (Again...)
Disclaimer: I don't own Warriors, and Win a Date With Nightcloud was not my idea. It was Empress Tansy's idea.
Leafpool sighed. She was in Daisy's Muffinz, the local muffin shop, and her blueberry muffin was cold. Her friend's muffin was still warm. I guess the muffin life just wasn't fair.
"Leafy, what's wrong?" a pretty white she-cat asked and bit into her chocolate chip muffin.
"I'm tired of being single!" Leafpool shouted, spitting bits of muffin all over her friend.
"Well... I'm sorry. But you can't just walk around asking random toms out on a date!" the white cat pointed out, brushing chewed up muffin from her fur.
"You're wrong, Rosebark. I can do that!" Leafpool exclaimed and jumped out of her chair.
"What? And, sit down. You're drawing attention to yourself." Rosebark sighed.
"Win a Date With Nightcloud ended, right?" Leafpool said excitedly.
"Yeah, so what?" Rosebark said, clearly missing the point.
"We should do Win a Date With Leafpool!" Leafpool screamed. Everyone in the muffin shop shot Leafpool a weird look.
"Sorry!" she whiper-shouted. So everyone went back to eating their muffins.
"You're crazy." Rosebark sighed with a shake of her head.
"Well who cares what you think? Take my cold muffin." Leafpool said and threw her muffin at Rosebark.
"Hey, I'm allergic to blueberries!' Rosebark whined. "And where are you going?!"
"I'm going to Spiderleg's Studio to film the first episode!" Leafpool shouted and ran out the door.
"Wait up! You're going to need a camera cat!" Rosebark shouted. She threw some money down on the table and raced after the brown-and-white she-cat.
"Come back soon!" Daisy called after the friends. Leafpool was halfway down the street, running faster than any Windclan cat.
"Leafpool! Slow down!" Rosebark panted. Leafpool either didn't hear or didn't care, because she kept on running. Finally, she stopped in front of Spiderleg's Studio.
"It's Win a Date With Leafpool time," Leafpool said with a smirk.
A crowd of cats gathered in an auditorium, sitting on the bleachers that framed the wide stage in front of them. The back of the stage was painted a plain brown with a large green leaf in the center. Inside the leaf said "Win a Date With Leafpool!" in white lettering. On the stage floor, towards the back wall, sat three brown podiums and one green podium. Leafpool stood behind the green podium, smiling wide at her audience. On the left side of the stage sat Breezepelt, wearing a blue hat with a rather large white pom-pom on top. Also to the left stood a grumpy Ivypool, with a black marker in hand, ready to total points on the whiteboard behind her. Rosebark sat in front of the stage, balancing a new camera on a new tripod. Once the camera was stable, Rosebark clapped her hands and smiled at Leafpool.
"Filming in three... two... one..."
"Hello and welcome to Win a Date With Leafpool!" the brown-and-white she-cat said happily. "I'm Leafpool, Thunderclan's medicine cat! As you can probably tell, I'm running a game show. Before we start said game show, I'd like you to know that Crowfeather and I are finally done. He's with Nightcloud now, so that means that I'm single and ready to mingle! This show is basically a way for me to meet toms so I can date them, and hopefully find true love here as well!"
The crowd 'Oooooh'ed. Leafpool smiled.
"For those of you have seen Win a Date With Nightcloud, the rules are the same on that one that are here. But for those of you have not seen said show, here's how it goes; in each episode, three toms will answer a series of questions- three, to be exact. The questions are written by me, my announcer, my security guard, my camera cat, and also you watchers in the live audience as well as you watchers from home!"
The crowd cheered and clapped for that.
"Just make sure the questions are appropriate!" Rosebark called from behind the camera. Leafpool frowned but continued.
"I will judge the toms based on their answers, rewarding and deducting points as needed. The lucky tom with the most points at the end of the game will get the grand prize- a date with mwah!"
Rosebark walked on stage to add more details.
"Any tom could appear on the show; Thunderclan, Riverclan, Shadowclan, Windclan. They could even be from Skyclan! They don't even have to be alive. So any tom has a chance to be on the show. So beware, all you toms out there... you may be forced to compete, even if you have a mate. The only toms that cannot compete are Crowfeather, Lionblaze, Jayfeather, or Firestar. Any other tom can be on the show." Rosebark said with a cheeky grin. Leafpool nodded.
"The toms will be selected by my announcer, my security guard, and Rosebark."
"But," Rosebark said. "Keep everything age appropriate."
"Cursing had better be allowed." a grumpy tabby she-cat grunted. Rosebark sighed.
"Yes, Ivypool, cursing is allowed. So to all you younger watchers out there, sorry if you don't like the cursing. If you don't like cursing, then either find another show to watch or replace all curse words with a 'BEEP'."
"Murdering is also allowed, then." Breezepelt said. Rosebark sighed again.
"No."
"Why not? If cursing is allowed, then why not murdering?" Breezepelt asked.
"Because I said so. As our security guard, you're allowed to hit people with giant bananas and stuff, but no murdering the toms. So basically cartoon violence only."
"But cartoon violence is stupid!" he whined.
"Sorry you feel that way." Rosebark said. "Anyways, if you have any questions, please feel free to ask me or any of the staff." Leafpool smiled.
"This show is supposed to be fun. So sorry for the boring intro. Rosebark said we had to do one. Now that all of that has finished, see you next time on Win a Date With Leafpool! On Channel 9!"
