True Love is Stronger When its Real Chapter 3: Won't forgive her, a warriors fanfic

Chapter 2

Squirrelflight's P.O.V.

Squirrelflight turned around and saw her father standing there with sympathy in his emerald green eyes. She narrowed her eyes.

"I'll forgive her when I want to forgive her. It's not my fault she got pregnant. I was pushed to take care of her kits. And not because of her, Brambleclaw won't even trust me anymore. It's her fault I'm even in this situation! All she cared about was her position as Medicine Cat. Now that she's had kits, she's not even qualified to be a Medicine Cat anymore. She disobeyed StarClan, and betrayed me!" Squirrelflight hissed.

"I'm just saying, Squirrelflight, you need to forgive her soon. StarClan's will or not, she's you sister. You took care of her kits to protect her." Firestar's voice was calm, but this only infuriated Squirrelflight even more.

"Well, I never wanted to take care of her kits'. When she came to me I was pregnant, but they died when I gave birth. All because of Leafpool. I never want to see her face again! I will never trust her again! She can go to the Dark Forest for all I care!" Squirrelflight yowled.

There were gasps of shocks from her Clanmates and most of all her sister, mother and father.

Firestar's green gaze hardened in anger. "Squirrelflight, don't talk like that! She your sister!"

"I don't care! Because of her, my kits died before they even had a chance to live! She killed my kits. And Brambleclaw never heard of it, because I didn't even know I was pregnant, until Leafpool already made me take care of them. I was in agony. You don't know what's it's like to lose kits that you were carrying, 'cause you're not a girl you!"

Firestar had nothing to say to this. Then…

"You're right I don't know what it's like to lose kits that I was carrying. But why did you say that?"

"Because everyone looks at me and all they see is you, but a girl version! I'm not you and everybody needs to get over that I'm not following in your footsteps to be a leader because I don't want to be! They all expect me to be as great as you! I may look like you, but I have to be you!" Squirrelflight raised her voice at the end so everyone could hear her. "In fact, never before had I wished I didn't look like you, so everyone would stop expecting me to be you!" Squirrelflight took in a deep breath and continued. "I will never forgive Leafpool for what she forced me to do! So get over it!"

More gasps of shock came from her Clanmates, but she heard a couple gasps of surprise. Brambleclaw shouldered his way to the front.

"What do you mean, Leafpool forced you to take care of her kits? And what do you mean you were pregnant before she told you to do this?" Brambleclaw asked.

Squirrelflight whipped around and her eyes widened when she saw Brambleclaw standing in front of her, talking to her.

"Squirrelflight, go onto the Highledge, so everybody can hear you properly. You have a story to tell."

She rolled her eyes. Oh, great. Thanks a lot Leafpool, and Brambleclaw. Now I have to stand in front of the whole Clan and tell my side of the story.

Brambleclaw's P.O.V.

Brambleclaw heard Firestar call for a Clan meeting. He stopped ordering the patrols and sat down in the position of the deputy. He saw Squirrelflight sit down next to her mother and Graystripe. He also noticed how she deliberately sat as far away from Leafpool as possible.

That's strange. Why wouldn't Squirrelflight want to sit by her sister? She took care of her kits.

Then their eyes met and Squirrelflight growled at him.

What was with Squirrelflight? She's the one who lied to him about Hollyleaf, Lionblaze and Jayfeather being their kits.

Brambleclaw tried to focus on the meeting, but he kept being distracted by Squirrelflight's behavior. He kept staring at her, as if looking at it would give him all the answers.

All of a sudden, Firestar leaped down from the Highledge and Brambleclaw snapped out of his reverie. He saw Squirrelflight disappear, heading towards the lake.

Heading toward Graystripe, he meowed, "Could you finish the patrols? I've got to see where Squirrelflight thinks she's going. She's due to go on the Sunhigh patrol and they can't go out with out her."

"Yeah, sure. No problem. Be back soon, though."

Brambleclaw nodded and ran after Squirrelflight. What's she doing? And what is her problem? It's not like her to snap at me.

He skidded to a halt in the shadows when he saw her looking at her reflection, narrowing her eyes, and heard her hiss.

Brambleclaw stiffled a shocked yowl. Okay. Something's definitely wrong. Squirrelflight doesn't hiss at her reflection! She loved it!

As she turned around, Brambleclaw ducked down and backed away. Good thing I'm downwind. She'll never know I was here, unless she comes over here. I better go.

Without a another thought, Brambleclaw streaked back to the camp and tried to catch his breath before Squirrelflight arrived. His breathing steady, he padded to see that Leafpool was near the fresh-kill pile, waiting for Squirrelflight to return.

He headed over to the pile and picked a plump vole for himself, headed to a shaded area and crouched down to eat it. When he finished, Squirrelflight came in with two squirrels, a mouse and a rabbit and she put them in the pile.

Then he saw Leafpool stand up and approach her, but Squirrelflight growled at her. Now that's something he thought he'd never see in his entire life. Squirrelflight and Leafpool are closer than any sister's! Why did she growl at me and Leafpool?

Brambleclaw saw Firestar go up to his daughter and he crept up to see what was going on.

"You can't stay mad at her forever," Firestar told her.

It's like he's talking to both of us, Yeah, his word are for Squirrelflight, but they're for me, too.

Brambleclaw turned his attention back to what was going on.

Squirrelflight whipped around and hissed, "I'll forgive her when I want to forgive her. It's not my fault she got pregnant. I was pushed to take care of her kits. And not because of her, Brambleclaw won't even trust me anymore. It's her fault I'm even in this situation! All she cared about was her position as Medicine Cat. Now that she's had kits, she's not even qualified to be a Medicine Cat anymore. She disobeyed StarClan, and betrayed me!"

There were gasps of shock from their Clanmates, including Leafpool, Firestar and Sandstorm. She was pregnant? Why didn't she tell me?

Firestar's green gaze hardened in anger. "Squirrelflight, don't talk like that! She your sister!"

Firestar said nothing, then…

"You're right I don't know what it's like to lose kits that I was carrying. But why did you say that?"

More gasps of shock and surprise. Brambleclaw was among them. I didn't know she felt that way about how her fur looked like. No wonder she hissed at her reflection. All she could see was her father!

Brambleclaw rose and shouldered his way to the front. "What do you mean Leafpool forced you to take care of her kits? And what do you mean you were pregnant before she told you to do this?" Brambleclaw asked.

Squirrelflight whipped her head around, froze and her beautiful green eyes widened with shock and surprise. Probably because I'm actually talking to her.

Brambleclaw heard Firestar whisper to Squirrelflight, Squirrelflight, go onto the Highledge, so everybody can hear you properly. You have a story to tell."

He saw Squirrelflight roll her eyes and he stiffled a purr of amusement.

"Yeah, tell your side of the story. We all want to hear it," Brambleclaw growled.
