Squirrelpaw's thoughts

Brambleclaws thoughts

Firestar's thoughts


What If?

Last time:

Brambleclaw stared at her, astonished and dismayed. He padded after to her and whispered "Squirrelpaw think about what your doing, please don't leave. I want you to stay…." Brambleclaw paused for a moment, "I want you to stay with me" he stated twining his tail with hers..

Squirrelpaw stared deeply into Brambleclaw's amber eyes and said "Oh, Brambleclaw….. I….-"

And now to the present:

"…. Oh Brambleclaw, I can't … I just can't stay here anymore , not with him staring down at me, at us, all the time, being wary and suspicious. What's the point of being a part of a clan whose leader doesn't even trust you? I'd never be happy" She shook her head and started padding away towards the bushes.

"Please Squirrelpaw!! No! I love you too! Just don't leave!" Brambleclaw yowled.

She looked back, her green eyes showing all of her love for him, but also so much sadness in their depths. "I'm sorry, I just can't. I love you Brambleclaw….goodbye!" It was too much for her so she ran off into the forest. I hope this is for the best, I really do. I'm so sorry Brambleclaw, I wish there was another way, I'll miss you.

Brambleclaw just stared after her, eyes showing his sorrow and sadness, until it melted away into anger. He let out a yowl and snapped his head towards Firestar. "Why!? How!? How could you do such a thing? And to your own daughter no less? I don't know how you can call yourself a good leader, or even a decent father." Brambleclaw accused, his disgust clearly evident in his tone.

Firestar just looked past him to the spot where Squirrelpaw ran out, his shock shone in his eyes. I can't believe that just happened. She really walked out of the clan… and it's all my fault. I shouldn't have been that hard on her, on both of them. He put his head down in shame. "I'm sorry Brambleclaw, I'm truly sorry." With his head still hanging in shame he turned around and started towards the camp, his tail trailing in the dirt behind him.

"I'll bring her back" Brambleclaw's determined voice stopped him for the moment. He looked back at Brambleclaw.

"What?" Firestar blurted out.

"I said I'll bring her back, one way or another, but it might be awhile before we come back." Brambleclaw said, thinking about the journey he would have to make.

"Are you really willing to bring her back?" Firestar asked curiously

Brambleclaw gave him a look. "Of course I am." I love her, I would do anything for her. "But.. would you be willing to welcome her back?" He asked

"Yes I would, I wouldn't ever think of not letting her back into the clan." Firestar said, Especially since it was my fault she left in the first place.

Brambleclaw gave him a long look, as if he was trying to figure out if he was really telling the truth. He then nodded and turned around and padded towards the bushes Squirrelpaw went through. "Well, I don't know when I'll be back," he stopped for a moment, "but when I am, I'll have Squirrelpaw with me." He started walking again but just before he was out of earshot of Firestar he spoke again. "I just hope when we do get back, you'll be back to your normal self." With that he disappeared through the bushes, leaving Firestar to himself to think, with only one thing on each other's mind.

I wonder how he's gonna bring her back.

I wonder how I'm gonna bring her back.


and it continues... well that wasn't a too bad of a way to end this chapter i guess. i really do wonder what Brambleclaw is going to do, and i'm the authouress lol. welll i'll think of something somehow... in the meantime i'm gonna need a few more reviews... it isn't like im asking for much like for ten or twenty or something... just enough to know people are at least reading and they like my writing or that they think it needs improvement. i really wasnt planning on even writing this and updating so soon but hey its like 2 in the morning and im bored so i had nothing better to do and it was a good way to pass like twenty minutes or something. so yah im gonna need some more reviews or im gonna stop cause there aint no point in writing this if i dont know if anyones reading this and if they like it or not. ill just start another story for another category, like Inuyasha. im probably better at that anyways... so just take a few minutes and post a review saying "good job keep it" cause at least THEN i know this is being read and liked. well ill try to think of something and post soon but till then bye and REVIEW!!
