Palmwind POV
Palmwind ran out in front of Crystal. "I can't let you kill her!" He screamed. "I love her!"
"Get out of the way, Palmwind!" Dawnstar screeched. "This is against the warrior code, and you know it!" She tried very hard to get Palmwind to move, but he wouldn't budge. "Fine!" She spat. "I'll just have to kill both of you!"
Crystal POV
Crystal then jumped forward. "NO!" She said. "You are evil! Palmwind and I are in-love, I'll bet you have been once!" Crystal had amazing ways with words. "Haven't you ever felt the glory of it? I'll bet you have. And it's a wonderful feeling, isn't it?" Crystal was on a roll. "But you had to give that up to become leader, and you're just going to let everyone else suffer as you did?"
Dawnstar stared into space. "I've always loved Darkcloud. But he loved someone else. I felt heart-broken. So I didn't hesitate to become deputy."
"And you're going to make Palmwind feel heart-broken too? You want to let other people suffer as well?"
"No… I am happy for Palmwind…" Dawnstar was lightening up, but suddenly her words became fast and mysterious. "You can't love a kittypet!" She hissed. "You're breaking the warrior code, and I wont let you do that either! It's either the warrior code, or this… KITTYPET, Palmwind."
Palmwind was shocked. "I… I…" He stammered. "I… love you Crystal… but…"
Crystal felt like crying. "But the clan is more important to you." A wet tear fell from her eye. "I understand." She started to walk away, but Palmwind stopped her.
"You're more important to me than anything…" He said, and licked Crystal affectionately on the ear.
Dawnstar interrupted their happy moment. "I'll just have to KILL you then!" She leapt up, ready to get Crystal in the neck, but Palmwind jumped in front of her.
"I won't let you kill her!" He gasped, as razor sharp teeth met his throat. "Run!" He rasped. "Run, and remember… I love… you." Palmwind went limp, but Crystal didn't have time to grieve. Dawnstar was ready to kill her too, and she started to run. She ran as fast as she could, but she couldn't shake Dawnstar away. She was only 3 mouse-lengths away from her, when Crystal ran into kittypet place, with Dawnstar snarling. She ran through her kittypet door, with Dawnstar waiting outside.
"You ever set one paw on my territory again, and I'll kill you! You will die, kittypet!" She hissed from outside, but went away.
Two days later, Crystal gave birth to 3 toms and 1 she-cat, and when the she-cat was 3 moons old, she snuck her oldest kit outside the camp entrance. It squeaked and trembled in the snow, but Crystal left it, and hid in the bush as she watched it get taken into the SkyClan camp, and taken in as part of the clan.
