Ok, so I caved on the 5 review thingy, but my loyal first reviewer, Leafpool's Loyalty asked me to do a songfic about Leafpool.
Disclaimer: I do not own Warriors, any of the characters (for now, bwahaha) or the song How to Save a Life written by The Fray

Step one you say we need to talk
He walks you say sit down it's just a talk
He smiles politely back at you
You stare politely right on through
Some sort of window to your right
As he goes left and you stay right
Between the lines of fear and blame
And you begin to wonder why you came
Leafpool had just lost her mentor and her best friend.
"I should've done something!!"
"L-Leafpool?"
"What Squirrelflight?!"
"You need to have a look at Ashfur; he's really hurt, also,
somebody wants to see you."
As Squirrelflight moved aside, she saw a smoky gray pelt that she
never wanted to see again, Crowfeather.
"Leafpool, I just wanted to let you know that, I think you're right,
about us not seeing each other again. But I will always love you."
When Leafpool looked up to meet his gaze,
she saw sorrow clouding their amber depths.
"You're right, Crowfeather. You should probably go back
to WindClan now.
Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness
And I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life
Crowfeather turned out of the nursery, his tail dragging in the dust.
Squirrelflight was sorry to see her friend leave so upset, but it was for the better.
Leafpool had not yet come out of the nursery so, Squirrelflight guessed that she had better leave her sister alone in her time of mourning.
Let him know that you know best
Cause after all you do know best
Try to slip past his defense
Without granting innocence
Lay down a list of what is wrong
The things you've told him all along
And pray to God he hears you
Cinderpelt paced up in StarClan, furious at her apprentice for mourning so.
"Leafpool, I will always be right beside you. Don't you know that?" She whispered.
Cinderpelt looked up from the pool to see her former mentor, Yellowfang.
"Are you ready, Cinderpelt?"
"Of course, Yellowfang, I was born to do this."
Before Cinderpelt was to go down back into the forest once more,
Yellowfang whispered something to her.
"You have more courage than I ever imagined my apprentice."
Cinderpelt looked around the clearing once more, looking at Yellowfang, her mentor, Frostfur, her mother and countless others who were gazing at her with the deepest respect.
She took a breath and stepped into the light, and into the small body of Cinderkit.
Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness
And I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life
Leafpool heard Rainwhisker's leg click back into place and she gave a satisfied hiss. Then she heard Sorreltail speaking to her sister.
"That's Molekit, that's Honeykit, that's Poppykit and that's…Cinderkit."
Squirrelflight gave a gasp. Brambleclaw stiffened. Even Rainwhisker's whiskers twitched. For a moment all she could hear was the mewling of the kits as they kneaded their mother's stomach.
"Cinderpelt, did you hear that?! Sorreltail named one of her kits after you!"
Little did she know, Cinderpelt did, in fact hear every word.
As he begins to raise his voice
You lower yours and grant him one last choice
Drive until you lose the road
Or break with the ones you've followed
He will do one of two things
He will admit to everything
Or he'll say he's just not the same
And you'll begin to wonder why you came
Squirrelflight lay in the nursery, her three kits, Jaykit, Lionkit and Hollykit, suckling at her belly as Squirrelflight dozed, tired from giving birth. Their father, Brambleclaw, also dozed, his head on top of his mate's flank. But Leafpool wasn't paying attention to the sleeping couple, or their kits, she was looking at Cinderpaw, Rainwhisker's apprentice.
"Cinderpelt, I know you're in there, give me some sort of sign!"
Then, Cinderpaw looked at Leafpool with those familiar blue eyes,
and that was the only sign Leafpool needed, Cinderpelt was back.
Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness
And I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life
