The Blood Of Forbidden Love II: Leafpool's Betrayal
Chapter 3
The Gathering was tonight and Crowfeather felt adrenaline pump through him. Barkface had promised him that they'd sit near Leafpool, that way he could talk to her at the end of the Gathering. After all, medicine cats sit together at Gatherings.
"Crowfeather, go hunt with a couple warriors. I need to speak with Barkface alone," Onestar nudged him out of the den and Crowfeather found two warriors and hunted. He caught a rabbit and took it to the elders. Yet, the elders were already eating a rabbit and the apprentice who had the thorns in him was picking ticks out of their fur.
"Okay…I'll take this to Barkface," Crowfeather meowed quietly.
Crowfeather walked into the den to see Barkface sitting on her moss bed.
"Um, I brought you a rabbit."
"Crowfeather…thank you. Onestar will be watching you at the Gathering. It will be very hard for you to see Leafpool. Almost impossible."
"What? I won't see Leafpool?"
"I said almost impossible. I told Onestar I would take you hunting after the Gathering. We'll catch up with Leafpool afterwards."
The Gathering had arrived. Firestar leaped up to the Great Rock first.
"ThunderClan is thriving. Ferncloud will have a new little of kits by the next Gathering. We also smelled fox near the border, Onestar. It was stale but it could still be a threat."
Blackstar spoke next, telling how Tallpoppy's kits would soon be apprentices. Onestar spoke and didn't say anything of how he found Crowfeather with Leafpool. RiverClan told of large amounts of prey. Finally, the Gathering was over. Crowfeather looked around for Leafpool and saw her leaving. He and Barkface ran after her, stopping her behind a large tree.
"Crowfeather!" Leafpool ran up to him and licked his forehead excitedly. "I have so much to tell you!"
"I'll just go…and catch some prey…" Barkface ran off hurriedly.
"What do you need to tell me, Leafpool?" Crowfeather mewed happily. Leafpool suddenly stopped purring. She looked scared.
"Uh, we have a huge problem."
"What?"
"I'm pregnant."
