Discaimer:
I don't own Warriors.
Note: Not only has Squirrelflight made a different choice. But Hollyleaf, Jayfeather, and Lionblaze were never born.
I just thought it would add better development, it'll happen in the future when the plots are added because of their non-existence.
This story takes place after Long Shadow.
Squirrelflight opened her eyes, she looked at the sun around her, filling the den with light. She loved the feel, she wandered out into the clearing feeling the warmth of the sun drown her fur until it was warm as it. It seemed like a perfect morning.
"Squirrelflight." a growl came from behind her. Surprised by the hostile voice, she turned around to see the deputy, Brambleclaw, behind her.
"Hello Brambleclaw." Squirrelflight returned the icy cold growl.
"So, what are you doing?"
"I'm enjoying the sun. Have a problem with that? Do you not like sharing the sun? The Clan? My father?" she knew that had hit him where it hurt. He'd been spending a lot of time with her father, Firestar, lately. She had gotten to know him when she was a kit. He was her kin, and she loved her father. Brambleclaw had been trying to get closer with him since he had become deputy.
"Why you little..." he started, he clawed the ground angrily.
"Won't hurt me, will you? Leave me alone Brambleclaw." she growled. She walked away, "I'm going to enjoy the sun some more if you don't mind. Your majesty." she sneered angrily.
She felt the sun some more, but inside, fury raged inside of her. Hotter than the sun. "Squirrelflight," a voice came. Squirrelflight jumped around and yowled,
"What!?" then she realized it was just her sister Leafpool. "Oh, sorry."
"It's all right, I saw the fight you had with Brambleclaw a moment ago."
"Oh." she sighed. "It's not my fault, he makes me so angry. I can't stand it."
"I know it. He came to me the other day asking if there was an herb to cure his world of you."
"I can't believe him."
"Everything will be alright in the end." Leafpool reassured.
"I'm going to hold that to you." Squirrelflight joked. She sat down, "So, do you think you'll get an apprentice soon?"
"I don't know. No cat has showed any interest in being a medicine cat. I'll find one eventually."
"Hopefully."
"Well, what are we going to do now?" Leafpool asked, when Brambleclaw came rushing over.
"Squirrelflight! You're going to go clean the elders bedding. Leafpool! Go do, medicine cat, stuff." he yowled.
"Don't tell a medicine cat what to do!" Leafpool mewed standing up.
"Besides, that is an apprentice duty. I'm a warrior. We already have two apprentices cleaning them right now." she huffed, pointing to Icepaw walking by with a jaw filled with dirty bedding.
"Then go on patrol, just get out of camp! Do something helpful!" she tom yowled.
"Fine I will! Whens the next hunting patrol going."
"Now, Brackenfur is leading it."
"Then I'm going with him." She turned to see the golden-brown warrior looking for somebody to go with him.
"Brackenfur! I'm going on the hunting patrol with you." The golden brown warrior smiled. Suddenly her apprentice, Foxpaw walked by. "Foxpaw, you're coming with me on a hunting patrol. She walked over to the head of the patrol. "Foxpaw's coming too."
"Thanks Squirrelflight, nobody seemed to want to come."
"Your welcome."
"We still need on more warrior." he looked around. Then he saw a cat wander past. "Ashfur! Want to come on a hunting patrol?" he called.
The gray tom looked at Brackenfur, then he saw Squirrelflight, "Alright." he nodded and walked up to the two cats.
"Okay, let's go hunt then." Squirrelflight mewed. "I suggest by the Sky Oak. There should be seeds around there since it's newleaf. Prey will be coming for food."
"Good idea Squirrelflight." Brackenfur mewed.
As the group stepped out of the entrance, Squirrelflight saw Brambleclaw's eyes blaze with anger. She stuck her tongue out, knowing that this only made the deputy angrier.
The cats started walking away, Squirrelflight and Ashfur fell in perfect step with each other. "What's wrong?" he asked. "And don't tell me that you're not upset, I can tell." he smiled.
Squirrelflight looked at him. "The usual problem."
"Brambleclaw still angry?"
"Yeah."
"Why can't he get over it?"
"Brambleclaw's stubborn. He was like that on the great journey too. Always thinking that he knew what was right. Because of him we almost starved." Squirrelflight laughed.
"Well, he can't be angry forever."
"Maybe not at us..." she let her voice trail off.
"What do you mean?" Ashfur asked.
"Oh, nothing, nothing. Forget I said anything." she quickened her pace.
"What were you going to say?"
"I don't know." she meowed, her voice tense with nervousness.
"You know. Tell me Squirrelflight."
"I don't want to."
"Stop sounding like a kit. Please Squirrelflight, just tell me."
"I'm not going to tell you. Not until I want to." she mewed.
"Can you at least tell me when you'll tell me?"
With a sigh Squirrelflight stopped. Ashfur walked up to her face. "Please Squirrelflight." His eyes large and begging.
Another long piercing sigh. Then she mewed something that couldn't be understood, it was to soft.
"What?" Another pause, then Squirrelflight mewed so that only he could hear.
"I'm going to have kits. Your kits Ashfur."
Note:
OH YEAH! I DID THE UNTHINKABLE!
