Disclaimer: I don't own Warriors, Erin does. I do own Streampool, however.
I won't let that Streampool take Fireheart away from me! Sandstorm thought. "Fireheart!" she called out. "Let me help you out showing Streampool around!" "No thanks", Fireheart said coldly. "I don't want anything to do with you."
Sandstorm was surprised by the ice in Fireheart's voice. "I'm sorry…" she said. "Just leave me alone!" Fireheart said, and he walked away with Streampool.
Just look at the way the two of them are walking! Sandstorm thought jealously. "Sandstorm", a voice called. She turned around and saw Cinderpelt standing behind her.
"What's up, Cinderpelt?" she said. "It's about you and Fireheart. Fireheart said that you and Dustpelt were really close today", Cinderpelt said. "Why do you play with Fireheart's emotion? I thought you weren't that kind of cat."
"It really isn't my fault!" Sandstorm said. She felt tears fall down her cheek. "In the morning Fireheart and I went to hunt. When I caught my prey, I went back to camp, only to find that he wasn't at camp. Dustpelt came over and started to eat with me. I was too focused on eating and didn't notice what Dustpelt did to me."
"It's alright", Cinderpelt comforted her. "I understand. The trick is to let Fireheart know the truth too. I reckon we may need some help, judging from his voice when he talked to you." "Thanks, Cinderpelt. But who'll help us?" Sandstorm asked.
"I will!" a voice popped up beside her. She turned around and saw Fireheart's best friend Graystripe. "I'll do anything to let my best friend reunite with her true love", he said, with a hint of sadness in his voice. Sandstorm knew he remembered about Silverstream. "Don't worry, Graystripe", she comforted him. "You'll see Silverstream again someday." "I know." Graystripe replied.
"So what shall we do?" Graystripe asked. "Yeah!" said Sandstorm. "Judging from Fireheart's eyes when he saw Streampool, we better think of something quick!" "Ooh! Is that jealousy I hear?" Cinderpelt said mischievously. "No!" Sandstorm said angrily. But truth was she did feel a little jealous. "Just joking", said Cinderpelt. "Now gather around. I have a plan."
"Are you sure this will work?" Sandstorm said. "Yeah, sure it'll work. You just have to use your body to make sure Fireheart comes running back to you", Cinderpelt replied. "Alright", Sandstorm said grumpily.
She walked up to Fireheart and pushed herself close to him, their flanks touching. Her move obviously caught Fireheart's attention as he moved himself away. She rubbed her muzzle against Fireheart's. This time, Fireheart spoke "What are you doing Sandstorm? Shouldn't you be with Dustpelt? He would be very sad to see you touch a kittypet." He mocked.
Sandstorm knew he was mocking her about her earlier actions with Dustpelt. She knew she had to fix it. "Fireheart please, just let me explain!" she pleaded. "I'm really sorry. I didn't notice Dustpelt earlier." "Yeah, sure", replied Fireheart. He walked away and left behind a very shocked Sandstorm.
