Chapter 4

This might be my second to last chapter in the If Spottedleaf Survived! Yeah, my chapters are short. But I hope you like It! Enjoy!

Sandstorm nuzzled against Firestar's pelt. She finally had everything she ever wanted. A mate, expecting kits, and no one standing In her way. She quickly winced at the thought, feeling guilty for leaving Spottedleaf to die.

No, I shouldn't feel guilty, she thought, Spottedleaf was a medicine cat! Plus, I loved Firestar first!

Sandstorm quietly snuck out to Sunning Rocks, and climbed up to the top of the rocks. She gazed out Into the stars, wondering when she was going to die, and If she would have a place in StarClan.

No, of course I'll have a place In StarClan! She thought, ri..right?

She felt a hole in her heart as she thought of Firestar. He loved Spottedleaf, not her. She was just the replacement of his dead mate.

I'm so sorry Spottedleaf! So sorry…

"I'm dead...because of you! You don't get to say sorry!" Sandstorm turned around.

"Spottedleaf!?"

Firestar padded out to the medicine den. There was a thorn in his paw, piercing his skin.

"Hey, Spottedleaf can you.." Firestar stopped himself dead.

"Firestar…" Cinderpelt gave him a symthetic look.

"Ah, sorry! I just...sorry, I have to go…" Firestar choked.

He bumped into Dustpelt on the way out, only letting out a faint 'sorry'

"Has anyone seen Sandstorm today?" Yellowfang asks the clan.

"Now that you mention it…"

"No…"

"Maybe she's on a patrol?"

"Nope, I checked earlier."

Ah! Why didn't I realize my mate was gone! Firestar thought, I must find her!

Firestar ran out of camp and searched for Sandstorm.

Not at RiverClan border...or ShadowClan...and WindClan..Where is she!?

"Spottedleaf...I left you to die! How can you be here?" Sandstorm hissed.

"Let's just say...I'm here to do one last thing…" Spottedleaf smiled.

"But...how….what...why?" she sputtered.

"You took everything from me! And now you're going to pay!" Spottedleaf hissed. She glanced at the bushes and Sandstorm saw a glint in her eyes.

"Look Spottedleaf! I'm sorry I left you to die! But I had too! I love Firestar! You two were never meant to be!" Sandstorm wailed.

"What!" She turned around.

"F...Firestar!" Sandstorm choked.

"How could you? You killed her! You killed the one I love!" Firestar screamed, "go. You are exiled from ThunderClan! Go, and never come back!"

"Hehe…" Spottedleaf snarled, "My work here is done."
