Thank you for all of your reviews! I'm sorry for not updating for a long time. Oh yeah, I'm sorry about the jumping to different scenes thing. I separated them when I typed the chapters but it came out all wrong. Well, here's the next chapter! Enjoy and don't forget to review!
Heathertail flopped down with a large sigh. She put her head next to her paws and started thinking about the good days. The days when she had played with Lionblaze as apprentices.
"DarkClan is victorious!" Heathertail laughed inwardly as she remembered the phrase that she always said after a "battle". She missed those days.
Lionblaze was the very best friend any cat could have. Heathertail couldn't understand why he had cut their friendship. They were happy, loved playing, and had gotten along perfectly fine! He was happy, she was happy.
So what happened? Heathertail remembered that night so clearly. Lionblaze, Lionpaw then, had looked so upset, so hurt. His expression almost matched her feelings.
"Why?" she wailed out loud. She choked back a sob. Was she feeling like this because she had liked playing with Lionblaze? Or was it what she didn't want to admit, that she liked the ThunderClan warrior a little more than just a friend?
Suddenly, she heard pawsteps coming towards her. They were coming from the opposite direction of where she came. Heathertail sprang up to her paws and unsheathed her claws, getting ready to fight if she had to.
"Who's there?" she meowed, sounding a lot braver than she felt. "Heathertail?" whispered a voice. "Who are you? Show yourself!" growled Heathertail.
Moonlight touched the pelt of a handsome golden tom. Heathertail's jaws dropped open. "Lionblaze?" she mewed in disbelief.
(New POV)
Lionblaze couldn't believe it. Could it really be Heathertail? "Who's there? Show yourself!" she meowed. Lionblaze hesitated for a heartbeat and then stepped into the moonlight.
The tabby she-cat's jaws dropped open. "Lionblaze?" she mewed in disbelief. Lionblaze wasn't listening. All he could see and smell was her. Her soft looking fur, sweet scent, and still her beautiful heather colored eyes were all real. She was really there.
"What are you doing here?" she growled, jolting Lionblaze back into reality. "I was just on a walk when… when I remembered this place," he mewed truthfully.
"Oh so now you remember? You finally remember the fun that we used to have?" hissed Heathertail. Lionblaze didn't understand why she was talking about that so suddenly.
"Look Heathertail, I'm sorry about that night. It was because of the Dark Forest! They forced me to!" explained Lionblaze carefully as he could.
"A likely story," spat Heathertail. "Really! You would never underst-," Heathertail cut Lionblaze off. "What would I not understand? I understand everything! I thought you liked playing here in the tunnels! I thought you liked DarkClan! I thought you liked me!" she screeched.
Lionblaze stared at Heathertail. She had liked him? The she-cat of his dreams had actually liked him back? She was glaring at him right now, but to him she looked like all the prey in the world.
"Heathertail, I..," Lionblaze couldn't find the words to explain. "I don't want to know!" hissed Heathertail and fled through the tunnels.
"No! Heathertail wait!" Lionblaze yowled and ran after Heathertail. The she-cat was almost out of sight but Lionblaze ran faster to catch up to her.
"Please wait! Let me explain!" Lioneblaze yowled. For a heartbeat, he thought that Heathertail had slowed down a little bit. He zipped through the tunnels in pursuit of her. Lionblaze had almost reached her when she shot forward with unbeatable WindClan speed.
The two cats were now out in the forest with the moon glaring down on them. Realizing that he couldn't catch her, Lionblaze climbed up the nearest tree. He jumped from tree to tree until he reached a long branch that would get him right in front of Heathertail.
Then without thinking, he jumped.
Ooh. This was an interesting chapter. What do you think will happen to Lionblaze? To tell y'all the truth, I don't really know but I'm sure I'll think of something. Don't forget to review!
