It was a new day for Lionblaze. He staggered through the hallways, his backpack slowly sliding off his broad shoulders. He stayed up till moonhigh last night trying to finish his homework. Hollyleaf came through the hallways behind him, her long black hair flowing behind her. Lionblaze let his blonde hair flow down to his shoulders. Bluestar, the school principal, walked through the hallways.
"School is starting in five minutes," she called out. Lionblaze rushed to his locker and put his books in it quickly. He raced to Science Class and quickly sat down. Cinderheart was glancing at him continuously until Mistystar, the teacher, came in. Stop looking at me! Lionblaze thought as Mistystar started her lecture. He quickly wrote notes as she spoke, and before he knew it, the class was over.
Lunch came and Lionblaze was quick on his feet. He wanted as much time as possible for lunchtime with his friends and he gathered his friends before racing off the property and into a small fast-food restaurant. Sitting down around a table, he started talking with his friends, who pulled out their money and bought lunch. Berrynose, blonde-haired male always prideful of himself, Bumblestripe, gray-haired with darker streaks, has always been unpopular, Toadstep, black-haired with white streaks, and Icecloud, a white-haired female with light skin, the girlfriend of Toadstep, tagged along with him and the others when they went off to lunch every day. She had become a good friend with the others.
"How did you do on the History test?" Toadstep asked. Icecloud bounced in her seat while Berrynose and Lionblaze looked away.
"D," Lionblaze murmured under his breath. Berrynose agreed, but Bumblestripe's eyes were enlightened.
"A+!" He laughed. Bumblestripe was the biggest nerd in the class, but he managed slowly to become a good friend. He had a thing for a young girl, Dovewing, who had recently become a freshman, skipping 8th grade. She and her older sister, Ivypool, kept their distance from each other. Ivypool was dating a senior in highschool named Tigerheart.
Lunch passed and the end of the day came. It was the weekend. Lionblaze left his friends for a date in the park with Heathertail. Her light-brown hair dropped to her waist and she strode through the park holding hands with her boyfriend. They came up to the playground and started swinging on the swings. Stonefur, Emberfoot, Sunstrike, and Breezepelt came down a cement slope and towards the swings. Sunstrike and Emberfoot date, and Stonefur and Breezepelt are close friends.
"Heathertail?" Breezepelt came up to her. He turned to Lionblaze. "Get away from her!" Breezepelt swung a fist at Lionblaze's face and slightly missed. Lionblaze jumped back and ducked. Breezepelt tackled him to the ground and beat at his face. Leave…me…alone! Lionblaze though silently and gripped a hand around Breezepelt's neck. They fought endlessly until Breezepelt dropped to the ground panting. Heathertail had gone, missing, while Breezepelt and Lionblaze lay on the ground beaten up.
"What was that all about?" Stonefur pulled Breezepelt onto his feet and the two headed on. Emberfoot and Sunstrike held hands and stared wildly at the beaten Lionblaze.
"Are you okay?" Emberfoot asked. Lionblaze ignored and got onto his feet.
"Is Heathertail…dating Breezepelt?" Lionblaze coughed, covering up a bloody nose. Emberfoot stared wide-eyed.
"You mean, you're dating her?" Sunstrike was astounded. Lionblaze nodded.
"You better talk to her then," Emberfoot shook his head. Lionblaze sighed and sat on the swing-set. Emberfoot and Sunstrike sat on the neighboring swings, swinging at a slower pace. I can't believe it, Lionblaze thought. Dating since 8th grade, two and a half years, and it's over.
