The Miserable Tale of Skysong

by Mosspath from WindClan

Skysong has been abused by her parents, left alone and now her love interest is with another. Will she ever be happy? Rated T for some violence, mild romance, and general angst.

3. Chapter 3

Amberflower shook her head as Blizzarddust sat in the shade of the warriors' den, his gaze ghostly as he stared at Leopardmist nuzzling Swiftclaw.

"Poor Blizzarddust." Skysong sighed.

"I heard him say 'Love is a lie' to one of the kits the other day." Amberflower said. Skysong tilted her head.

"At least he's not going to the Gathering with Leopardmist."

"Speaking of Gatherings," Amberflower stood up. "I'm going and I'd better get ready now." Skysong nodded as her sister hurried off to catch up with their Clanmates. Mousestar led the way to the Gathering. Skysong turned her attention to Blizzarddust who was leaving on a night patrol, his tail down still.

I just wish I could tell him I like him. Skysong thought. Rabbit dung, why am I so shy about everything? I wish I could be flamboyant like Amberflower and Stormcloud and...well pretty much every other Clan cat! The soft gray she-cat slid into the warriors' den to sleep on it.
