Before we begin the chapter, I just want to say how appreciative I am of the reviews. Thanks so much!
Chapter 3: Feathertail, what in the name of StarClan are you doing here?
Feathertail was getting frustrated. Here she was, watching over her beloved Crowfeather, when now he's hurting the heart of one of her best friends? How could he?
She let out a frustrated hiss.
"Crowfeather, even though Leafpool is a medicine cat doesn't mean she doesn't have feelings!"
Pacing back and forth, she made a decision that would probably get her in trouble with Crookedstar, Spottedleaf, and Tallstar, but she has GOT to do something.
"Here goes," she muttered under her breath.
---o-o-o---
Crowfeather was ready to catch the fattest mouse in the history of the Clan, when, all of a sudden, a rustle sounded behind him. The mouse darted away, squeaking, as if to say, "Haha! You couldn't catch me!"
He spun around, and spat in whoever made the rustle's face, "Mouse brained fool! I could have caught the biggest mouse in FOREVER, but NOOO, you just HAD to come and RUIN IT, didn't you?"
The other cat sighed.
"Still haven't changed your attitude, Crowfeather?" it mewed.
Crowfeather stopped ranting.
"Feathertail?" he gasped, the tip of his tail twitching. He bounded forward, ready to rub his muzzle against her cheek, but Feathertail hissed for him to stay back. Instead, she slowly walked toward him. Stopping a tail-length away from him, Feathertail explained to him why she was here. Well, she explained it rather angrily, but it's still explaining.
"Crowfeather! You're the mouse brained fool! How DARE you hurt my best friend, the one who IN YOUR HEART you know loves you the most? The one YOU saved from falling off the cliff? The one WHO SAVED YOUR SON?" Her icy blue eyes shot daggers at him to where he sat, stunned.
"Feathertail, what in the name of StarClan are you doing here?" Crowfeather stuttered. "I don't think StarClan gave you permission to come yell at me in my dreams!"
Feathertail glared at him.
"No, they didn't," she meowed calmly, "But my main point is, if you KNOW you don't love Nightcloud, then WHY IN THE NAME OF STARCLAN are you pretending to love her?"
Crowfeather sank down to the ground, and whimpered, "I don't know. For Breezepaw?"
Not bearing to see him so weak, she licked the top of his head, and breathed, "Do what you think is best."
In the background, they could hear someone calling, "Feathertail! Feathertail?"
Sadly, Feathertail looked straight into Crowfeather's eyes.
"I must go. But if I see Leafpool hurt one more time because of you, then you'll know I'll be back. And please, don't hurt her just for me to come back. Goodbye!"
She padded away.
"No!" Crowfeather yowled. "Feathertail, please, come back! Help me!"
Feathertail had stopped, and Crowfeather's heart lifted at the thought of her coming back, but she merely glanced sadly back at him and disappeared.
Crowfeather could feel a severe headache coming on.
"Oh, Nightcloud, look what you've gotten me into!" he whispered to himself.
Suddenly he awoke, aware of the painful throbbing in his head. Sadly he walked noiselessly to the medicine den, ready to get something for his headache.
