Author's note: Sorry about the late update. I went to a fair and was busy with my cousin. Anyway, this is the next chapter! Enjoy!!!!
Fireheart's confused. Everything is just happening too fast. One second he despised Sandstorm and never wanted to see her again, the next second he wanted her to come back to his life. What should I do? He thought. He got up. I need some advice. He was about to walk out when he saw Streampool. "Fireheart", she began.
Sandstorm is walking back to camp. In her mouth was a squirrel. She added it to the fresh-kill pile. She's in a good mood today and she doesn't know why. Maybe it's because you're finally back with Fireheart again, a voice said in her head.
Like, who are you? She thought. I'm your conscious. I make you realize what you want. The voice said. For once, you're actually helping. Sandstorm remembered once when she realized she loved Fireheart, her conscience had flooded her mind and brain with dirty thoughts. It was very, very hard to deal with. At least I pulled through, she added to herself.
"Hey! Sandstorm! May I speak to you in private?" a voice said behind her. It was a voice she knew too well. "Streampool", she murmured under her breath, teeth clenched. "What do you want?" she asked with hostility clear in her voice. "Just want to speak to you in private", Streampool replied calmly, ignoring her hostility. "Sure", Sandstorm mewed. She couldn't see the harm done in that.
I hope it goes as easily as it did for Fireheart, Streampool thought evilly.
Flashback:
"Hey! Streampool, what is it?" Fireheart asked, sort of surprised. "Nothing major, just wanted to talk", Streampool mewed. She faked a hurt expression. "What, am I not welcomed?" she teased.
"No, it's not that", Fireheart mewed. "I'm just troubled and confused, that's all." "Hmm… I might be of assistance. What troubles you, Fireheart?" "Well, I'm not sure about my feelings about Sandstorm. I kind of hated her when I saw her with Dustpelt. Then I wanted to be on good terms with her again. I'm really confused", he mewed.
"Are you really sure you want to go back to Sandstorm?" Steampool asked. "What makes you think that she's not just playing with your heart and feelings again? What if she just wants to take your heart and break it into more pieces again?"
Fireheart looked uncertain. He wasn't sure what he wanted. Is it true that Sandstorm just wants to hurt me even more? He thought uncertainly.
Seeing Fireheart's expression, Streampool knew she already completed her mission. Mission accomplished, she thought happily. "Think about what I said, Fireheart", she mewed as she padded away, leaving Fireheart in his thoughts.
End Flashback.
"You know that sometimes you do something and it can't be changed?" Steampool asked Sandstorm. The ginger she-cat nodded, not knowing where this conversation is leading.
"Well, when you toyed with Fireheart and broke his heart? That cannot be undone!" Streampool mewed. Sandstorm couldn't believe what she was hearing. She was furious.
"Yes it can be undone. I didn't break Fireheart's heart on purpose; it was all Dustpelt's fault! And I believe true love can find a way. Fireheart did say that he would think about it and I believe he really means it!" Sandstorm mewed loudly.
"What if he doesn't love you anymore?" Streampool questioned. "He wouldn't that in his life!" Sandstorm exclaimed. "Well, see for yourself then." Streampool motioned her to follow.
Steampool walked towards Fireheart's nest and said to Sandstorm: "Why don't you ask him for yourself?" Sandstorm took a deep breath and walked in. "Fireheart?"
