Ahh that was a lot of reviews which makes me happy! Reviews= happy author. Anyway… I see that some of the people/cats out there have some questions/comments! Allow me to answer/comment them!
Leafpoollover123:Actually, Leafpool IS in fact Lionblaze, Jayfeather, and Hollyleaf's mother. It is revealed in Sunrise, the last book of the Power of Three series.
A Harry Potter Lovin' Girl: I know! LeafXCrow is my favorite other than LionXHeather.
Swiftpath: You are my most critical reviewer and I appreciate that because it gives me something to think about. Now let's answer your questions. The Mistystar thing is that Mistystar is a pretty new leader. Usually, if you read in the books, the oldest or wisest leader starts the Gathering. I'm sorry if that confused you. About the Crowfeather thing… Well I just wanted to make a bonding between father and son, you know? It's really cute that way.
MyrtleFalls: Haha you DO have an interesting idea. However that would be too obvious and I don't feel like using my mind to figure out how Lionblaze fakes his death. I DO like the Emberfoot idea. I think I might use it. Oh wait I didn't say that did I?
Firestar99887: Thank you for your compliment!
Also reviewers don't forget that at the end of the story, the person/cat that reviewed the most gets a special prize! Also I DO NOT OWN WARRIORS!
Lionblaze ran up to Bramblestar. "I'm going hunting for Squirrelflight," he mewed to his leader, knowing that his leader would agree to anything involving his mate.
Sure enough, his leader nodded and Lionblaze slowed down so that the rest of the ThunderClan cats went past him. Only Jayfeather remained.
"You should really warn me about things like that. I had to make up a last minute excuse to Flowerpetal. Seriously! It's really embarrassing!" hissed his brother.
"Sorry," muttered Lionblaze. The two brothers walked towards the tunnels. "What about Dovesong?" Jayfeather asked.
The thought of Dovesong rushed into Lionblaze's mind. "Oh great, I forgot about Dovesong!" he moaned.
Jayfeather rolled his eyes. "Typical."
Lionblaze gave a growl of warning and Jayfeather laughed.
"You know, I think it would be better to tell Heathertail about Dovesong and Tigerheart before they just come to their meeting," meowed Lionblaze.
Jayfeather nodded. "Yeah, I was thinking about that too."
The two walked in silence again. They entered the tunnels. There was no need to scent the air or think about the way. Lionblaze knew it by heart.
When the two arrived at the clearing, Lionblaze immediately saw that Heathertail had not arrived yet. With an inner sigh, he flopped down and waited for her.
Line-line-line-lion-line-line-line-heather-line-line-line ;)
"He's finally gone!" sighed Heathertail with relief. Whiskermask chuckled. He knew that his friend was referring to Emberfoot who had started following Heathertail.
It had taken a lot of persuading from Heathertail. Whiskermask smiled as he remembered the conversation right after the Gathering.
"I'm going to go hunting," Heathertail announced. Emberfoot's eyes brightened.
"I'll go with you!" he purred. Heathertail quickly shook her head.
"No thanks."
"It's dangerous to go out alone."
"I can defend myself."
"What if a fox comes along?"
"I'll take Whiskermask with me then."
"Why him and not me?"
"Because he's my friend."
"Oh and I'm not?
"I just want to go hunting okay?"
"But I want to go with you."
"Please Emberfoot I need some time to think about you and how wonderful you are."
"Really?"
"Yes Emberfoot."
"Okay then take all the time you need!"
"I'm still taking Whiskermask with me."
"Oh fine if you must."
It was after that argument that Heathertail and Whiskermask were able to get away.
"I wonder if Lionblaze understood your message," Whiskermask meowed.
Heathertail's eyes flashed. "He's not stupid!" she mewed, defending her mate.
"Of course," Whiskermask purred. Heathertail rolled her eyes.
"Come on, we're wasting moonlight."
The two WindClan cats ran towards the DarkClan "camp". They entered the tunnels.
Whiskermask saw a flash of golden fur in the moonlight. Heathertail noticed too.
"Lionblaze is here!" she squealed and ran forward. Whiskermask couldn't help but purr again. Heathertail acted like a kit whenever she was happy.
Sure enough, the two ThunderClan cats were waiting for the WindClan cats.
"What took you so long?" grumbled Jayfeather.
"Sorry it took a while to get away from a certain tom cat," apologized Whiskermask, ignoring the medicine cat's attitude.
Lionblaze hissed angrily. "It's that Emberfoot isn't it?" he snarled.
"Yeah, pretty much. But I'm here aren't I?" meowed Heathertail, pressing up against Lionblaze.
Whiskermask watched as the golden warrior relaxed and look down at Heathertail.
"Yeah and I'm glad you are. I have to tell you something," Lionblaze mewed.
Whiskermask perked up. What was Lionblaze going to talk about?
"Do you know Dovesong?" Lionblaze started.
Whiskermask shook his head as a no but Heathertail nodded.
"Yes, she was your apprentice wasn't she?" asked Heathertail.
Lionblaze nodded. "Yeah well she has a litter of kits now."
"Oh that's great news!" purred Heathertail. Lionblaze nodded again. "Yeah but there's a problem."
"What is it?" asked Heathertail, her eyes full of worry and love, but mostly love for her mate.
Whiskermask's eyes widened as he listened to Lionblaze and occasionally Jayfeather, tell about Dovesong and how her mate was actually Tigerheart of ShadowClan.
"She wants to join DarkClan along with Tigerheart and her kits," Lionblaze finished.
DarkClan was silent for a moment. Then Heathertail stood up.
"Of course they can but I'm not so sure about the kits. It's not like we can keep them here. They might get lost or worse, get hurt!" she meowed.
"Yes, she thought about that so she proposed an idea," Lionblaze explained.
Heathertail was silent and she had a thoughtful expression on her face. "Go on."
"Dovesong suggested that DarkClan should run away and actually become a new Clan," Lionblaze meowed quietly.
Whiskermask's jaw dropped open. "What?" he exclaimed. "That's impossible! How could we do that?"
Lionblaze turned towards him. "Just decide on a day and then run away, I guess."
Anger rose up in Whiskermask against the golden warrior. It would take more than that!
"Where will we go?" he asked. Lionblaze just shrugged.
"How do you know we'll actually find a piece of territory suitable for us?" Shrug. "We don't have enough cats to make a Clan. How do you know we'll survive?" Shrug. "What if there is no prey?" Shrug. "What if StarClan doesn't follow us?" Shrug.
"What if-," "Enough with the what ifs and shrugging!" shrieked Heathertail suddenly.
Whiskermask felt ashamed. He had asked questions that could not be answered like a kit.
"I'm sorry Lionblaze. It's just that I think it's going to take a little more than just leaving for us to survive," sighed Whiskermask.
"It's okay. I understand," Lionblaze mewed. Whiskermask nodded to the warrior gratefully.
"This is a good idea though," Heathertail meowed.
Whiskermask looked at his friend with wide eyes. "Does that mean that we're actually leaving?" he asked with disbelief.
Heathertail nodded. "I think it's worth a try," she mewed.
"Should I tell Dovesong?" asked Lionblaze. Heathertail shook her head.
"No. This should be looked over carefully. Tell her to come to the next DarkClan meeting along with Tigerheart. We'll discuss this matter then," ordered Heathertail.
Whiskermask was proud of his friend. She really knew how to take charge.
"I think that's a good idea," he agreed. Heathertail sat back down.
"Then this meeting of DarkClan is over," she mewed. "We should have the next meeting in two sunrises at midnight." (A/N: Two sunrises= 2 days)
Whiskermask stood up and stretched his legs. He really hated having to sit down for long amounts of time.
"Until next time," murmured Heathertail as she embraced Lionblaze.
Whiskermask's heart ached as he saw the two. He wished that he could have the same way with his mate.
His mate! What would she do if he ran away?
Whiskermask fluffed up with the thought. "I forgot about her!" he exclaimed out loud.
The three cats stared at him. "Uh Whiskermask are you okay?" asked Jayfeather.
Whiskermask hung his head with embarrassment. "Yeah. Sorry."
"Well it seems as if Whiskermask needs his sleep," purred Lionblaze.
Whiskermask nervously laughed along with the other cats. "Good bye Lionblaze and Jayfeather," he mewed.
"Bye Whiskermask!" The two groups parted.
Whiskermask thought about his mate all the way to the WindClan camp.
Not the best ending or chapter I ever wrote…. But I'll live. Review!
