*lets out long breath* Helloooo, everyone! Luckily, stuff has been figured out, me and HoneySnow did some troubleshooting, so we're all good again. Now:
SomeStormLeaf- Me too! And yep, they need better communication, tbh. And hmm... I suppose we'll have to see. Thank you!
Succulentsofa- I think he may be too, poor bean. And thank you!
ReadingEevee- I know, she does. And thank you! Filler chapters are hard *grimaces* You too!
DarkCrystal666- She does. and YES, and idk
On with the chapter!
"Featherstride munched on the mouse she had with great hunger, killing her foe!" Curlspirit mocked.
"Shut up, I'm hungry." She replied.
"Okay, but it's not MY fault you refuse to hunt with us anymore at the gathering." Curlspirit teased.
"I've got better things to do." She replied.
"Like hanging out with that ReefClan she-cat?" Curlspirit teased. Featherstride didn't answer. "What was her name again? Gingerfall?" Curlspirit asked.
"It's FIREfall." Featherstride hissed.
Curlspirit sat up, surprised. "Woah, why you gotta be so defensive? I just got her name wrong." Curlspirit mewed.
Featherstride finished her mouse and padded away from Curlspirit.
"I'm going for a walk." She announced.
"Oh, are you gonna do that with Firefall too?" Curlspirit teased. Everyone around Featherstride let out a mrrrowww of amusement, but she slid out of the main cave entrance and headed for the moor.
Oh Firefall, where are you when I need you?
She bolted across the moor and started chasing a hare. Well, I might as well be useful.
She caught it, and started dragging it back to camp.
"Well, Well, Well. Look who it is." Featherstride looked up to see Poolcreek staring down at her.
"Poolcreek, what do you want?" She growled. Poolcreek teased everyone and spread the worst rumors about everybody, and would do ANYTHING for gossip. "I heard a little rumor going on about you." Poolcreek explained. "And I wanted to get to the bottom of it." She mewed.
Oh Starclan. Save me now.
She sighed. "What do you want to know? Let's get this over with." She replied.
"Good." Poolcreek purred. "There's a RUMOR, that you don't hang out with your siblings at the GATHERING anymore." Poolcreek mewed.
"That's true. I don't." She replied.
"Why is that?" Poolcreek sneered.
"None of your business." She hissed. "Oh MY, look at this, soft and quiet FEATHERSTRIDE being HOSTILE?"
Featherstride padded away and headed back towards camp.
"You like her, don't you?" Poolcreek questioned.
Featherstride flexed her claws. "No, I don't." She hissed.
"Oh please, I can spot a lesbian when I see one." Featherstride shifted her paws. "It's fine, I won't share your secret. But just some advice, don't make it look like you like her." Poolcreek suggested.
"T-Thanks." She stammered.
Huh, sounds like she was speaking from experience. I know a lesbian when I see one too.
What IS this, HoneySnow? A Gladeclan background character? I thought you forgot all of them! (Jk) Anyways, stay safe, and leave a review letting me know what you think!
Have a good day (or night) and keep writing!
