AN: Thanks for the reviews guys :D CheetahxBreeze isn't over yet, don't worry xD I had to rewrite this chapter because my internet broke down... x_x;; Sorry if it's kinda rushed. D:

Shmancy-Fancy-Kitteh - you're close ;D I was thinking of Cheetahstorm/fang but it seemed to guy-ish xD Perhaps I'll do another one of yours :3

Kind of inapropriate (like Teen - Mature rated I'd say) at the beginning. Just warning you~

It was midnight. The sky was a dark blue, and the stars of Silverpelt glittered through the treetops. Moonlight filtered through the leaves, and shards of light scattered the forest floor. A soft breeze whispered through the branches, and a soft stream tumbled through the forest. An annoyed yowl broke the songs of the forest.

"What is it this time?" hissed Nightfrost, facing Toadstep, who was clutching his paw and mewling in pain.

"Stubbed my paw on a rock!" he gasped, his eyes wide. He was rocking back and forth on his back on the forest floor. Nightfrost rolled her eyes. Toadstep was a baby, and he didn't even seem to care that his father and half-brother died. He seemed perfectly fine, while Rosepetal was still grieving in the medicine cat's den.

"Oh, grow up." Nightfrost mewed. "It doesn't hurt that bad, you're just trying to get my attention."

Toadstep hauled himself up, a gleam in his eyes. "I don't need your attention." he scoffed. "I already have the attention of every single she-cat in this Clan."

Nightfrost snorted. "Really, like who?"

Toadstep smirked, and thrust his face into Nightfrost's. "You, for one... Hazeltail - "

"She's your sister, that's not normal." Nightfrost mewed. "I wouldn't mate with my brother!"

"Snowpaw's a medicine cat, it's against the rules." Toadstep mewed, sighing and rolling his eyes. "Just because Hazeltail moons over me doesn't mean I'll moon over her. Cherrypelt moons over me all day... and Ivypool always volunteers to go hunting with me."

"That doesn't mean a she-cat 'loves' you." stated Nightfrost. "Ivypool goes hunting with anyone... and who said I pay any attention to you?"

"Oh, I've heard Cinderheart and Lionstar aren't together anymore." Toadstep mewed.

"That's moons old." Nightfrost growled. "They were before I was born, but then Lionstar and Icecloud had this one-night affair, Lionstar and Cinderheart were together again, and then they faded apart, and now Lionstar's starting to be with Icecloud again."

"I know that, I was just keeping her in mind." scoffed Toadstep. "And I know you're obsessed with me. I can prove it."

"How?" muttered Nightfrost, slipping into a hunter's crouch. She waggled her haunches, and pounced on a floating leaf.

"By that." Toadstep whispered, his eyes gleaming. He padded towards Nightfrost. The look in his eyes unnerved her. "You just showed me all of the stuff I didn't need to see. You pretty much showed me the bottom part of your body. That's like, the cat mating signal."

"Go mate with someone else, because obviously I was stalking a leaf and you were looking there." growled Nightfrost.

Toadstep shrugged. "Whatever." he mewed. "You're with Thornclaw anyway." They had reached the ShadowClan border, the destination they had to reach. Lionstar wanted to send two inexperienced warriors on a border patrol to see how they shaped up. Nightfrost wasn't sure if any cat was watching their progress, and she hoped no cat had overheard their conversation.

"I'll mark the border." Toadstep mewed, a glint in his eye. "You just watch how I do it, okay?" He padded over to a tree, facing Dovewing, and raised a leg, showing his exposed member.

"If you're trying to make me "moon" over you, it's not working." called out Nightfrost. "Save it for your half-sister, or maybe Cherrypelt."

Toadstep shrugged and marked the border. Nightfrost's thoughts wandered to a few hours before, when Dovewing confessed her secret.

A shocked silence greeted the she-cat's words. Lionstar had closed his eyes, and was shaking his head softly. His claws scraped against the moss, leaving soft scuffmarks. Dovewing looked ashamed, while Ravenpaw bowed his head and shuffled his paws. Nightfrost guessed he didn't want to take part in the conversation.

"W-why?" asked Lionstar, finally looking up. His eyes were hollow with disbelief. "I've always thought you were a loyal cat, Dovewing. Ever since your extraordinary hearing saved us from the Dark Forest, I've considered you as one of my most loyal cats. But mating with a ShadowClan tom... a Dark Forest cat, especially... I just never would've thought you'd do it."

"I'm sorry." Dovewing whispered. "I know my actions can never be reversed... but I had come up with you to talk to you about it. Bumblestripe has always known... and Ivypool found out many moons ago. I was pregnant with the kits moons before the battle, and by then I stopped seeing Tigerheart and I was becoming closer to Bumblestripe. When he found out I was pregnant, he was overjoyed. But I know they weren't his, so I told him. I meant to tell Hawkpaw, but after the Dark Forest fight I didn't want him to feel even more of an outcast. I didn't know Bumblestripe had made him leave... I got really mad after. I didn't want him to grow up in lies like you and Jayfeather did."

Lionstar narrowed his eyes, and stood up. He paced the den, and then stopped, looking at his former apprentice with wide eyes. "Dovewing, I can't punish you, and you know that. You've done so much for us, and you can do so much more. I know you, and you would have come to me in private if it mattered so much... and you would've told me this after Hawkpaw disappeared. You would only confess to me in front of other cats because the guilt was eating you up... or you had something else to confess. Are you hiding something else, Dovewing?"

Dovewing shook her head, her eyes closed. She sighed and opened them. "Yes, I am." she mewed. "But you must promise me that you won't... interfere... after I tell you this. Do you promise?"

Lionstar stared at Dovewing for a few moments, then nodded. "Go on." he meowed.

Dovewing started with another sigh. "As you know, I had two kits, not one. The other one supposedly wandered away before she reached six moons, but this isn't true. Spottedkit and Hawkpaw didn't have their full pelt-colors by then, and they both looked like Tigerheart. Since they were three moons, they had blue eyes. I didn't know which one looked more like Tigerheart. I guessed Spottedkit resembled him a bit, so after the kits were born I snuck away and told him about them. He seemed shocked, and I knew he could never live knowing that two of his kits and former mate were in another Clan. Tensions were high then, so I brought him Spottedkit. I wanted him to have a piece of me in his Clan, because we weren't together then. I still loved him, but I didn't want to betray my Clan and StarClan by being mates with a Dark Forest cat. He told me later that as he was walking back, the she-cat who loved him, Applefur, saw him with me. She confronted him, and Tigerheart said he'd be mates with her if she kept quiet and pretended to be Spottedkit's mother. ShadowClan didn't suspect a thing, and still go on this day thinking that Spottedkit, or Spottedpaw, now, is Applefur and Tigerheart's kit. But Applefur's dead, so... the secret was safe. But after Hawkpaw ran away, I wanted to tell you the truth."

Nightfrost had been the one to break the silence. "Did Spottedpaw... die?" she rasped.

The pale-gray she-cat shook her head. "No. Spottedkit's name changed. To Cheetahkit."

"Hey, Nightfrost! You there? Too busy staring at me, huh?" Toadstep's obnoxious voice rang out in front of Nightfrost. Shaking her head, Nightfrost stood up and shook her pelt. Toadstep was in front of her, staring at her cockily.

"So you were!" he crowed. "Thornclaw's got a run for his prey! He's got competition, also known as me!" Toadstep struck a pose.

"In your dreams." snorted Nightfrost. "You're one of the worst looking tom's I've ever seen."

"She-cats love the cockiness." explained Toadstep. "It makes them go crazy. That's what Dustpelt told me."

"What does Dustpelt know?" muttered Nightfrost. "He's been with Ferncloud his whole life."

"Wrong!" yowled Toadstep. "He mates with other she-cats all the time, and Ferncloud mates with different toms. Once at a Gathering, she mated with Blackstar, the ShadowClan leader. Crazy, huh?"

"Stop listening to what Berrynose used to say." Nightfrost growled. "Because most of the time, it's not true. It seems like your following in his pawsteps, though. The newest ThunderClan show-off."

Toadstep shrugged. "So? It's still interesting. Hey, can I tell you something?" he asked. "And I'm serious, I'm not joking, you can't tell any cat this. It's not a joke." Nightfrost could see from the seriousness in his eyes that it wasn't.

"I won't tell any cat." promised Nightfrost.

"Okay. Well you know how Hazeltail's kits are supposedly Foxleap's?"

"Is this something Berrynose told you?"

"No! They're my kits, Nightfrost! Not Foxleap's, mine!"

Nightfrost fixed him with an icy stare. "That's not funny." she mewed.

"I'm serious. I was an apprentice when I kind of had a thing for her. I don't care that we're half-siblings, the whole Clan's related. One night, we went into the woods and well... mated. She didn't care that I was an apprentice, she said it was the best experience in her life." Toadstep sighed. "Foxleap and her aren't even mates! She doesn't want to admit the kits are mine because she thinks Daisy will be distraught. She's related to Foxleap because Daisy was mates with Spiderleg, well... not blood related, but... so why can't she admit that the kits are mine?"

"I don't know." Nightfrost mewed. "But the fact that you mated with your sister is kind of revolting."

Toadstep rolled his eyes. "I don't care, just don't tell anyone. They resemble me, not Foxleap. Cats are going to notice!"

"It's your fault." Nightfrost mewed dryly. "Mating with your siblings is a little weird, Toadstep. It's not normal."

"So? I'm related to Cherrypelt, but I mate with her all the time. I'm surprised you can't hear us, since Cherrypelt prefers behind the warrior's den."

"I don't need to know about your mating life, thanks." mewed Nightfrost. "But really, Toadstep. If you want her to admit it, stop mating with every she-cat in the Clan, and being so cocky about it."

Toadstep looked at her. "Thanks, I guess." he murmured. "I feel as if I don't know any of your secrets, Nightfrost. What do you have to hide?"

"Nothing. My life's boring." Nightfrost mewed. And for the first time, she realized it was. She closed her eyes, trying to escape this awkward moment. She didn't want to be spending time with Toadstep, she wanted to be with Thornclaw. She still hadn't asked him about the mate thing... She opened her eyes to find a shocked Toadstep looking at her.

"Nightfrost, where'd you go?" he called out. "You kind of, disappeared!"

Nightfrost looked down at herself, but all she saw was shadows. She didn't see her paws, and turning her head around, she didn't see her body. Where had she gone?

She closed her eyes. I want to be back, I want to be back... I want to be with Toadstep on patrol! I don't want to disappear!

She opened her eyes to see Toadstep's eyes wide in shock. "Nightfrost!" he gasped. "You were here, and then you weren't! And now you are! It's like you have some kind of superpower... where you can fade into the shadows!"

A superpower? What is going on?

I had to end it, lol. So here it is xD
