The Heart of a Thorn Chapter 6

A/N: part of this chapter is a request from: xxEu-chan. Thanks for the R&R so now you get a Crowfeather and Leafpool plushie! Please R&R

Four Moons had passed since Ashfur had told Leafpool's secret to all the clans. Squirrelflight and Brambleclaw never made up; meaning he ignored her apologies. Jayfeather bustled around the medicine cat den, making sure he had enough supplies to last through leaf-bare. Leafpool now padded into camp with one scrawny looking mouse. She wasn't cut out for being a warrior, Firestar should know that! Ashfur pressed his side into Squirrelflight. Despite him telling the whole clan and the other clans her secret, she still loved him. She knew Brambleclaw would never forgive her. Squirrelflight's eyes glowed as she licked Ashfur's cheek. Leafpool shot a hostile glance at Squirrelflight.

Crowfeather growled as Onestar glared down at him once again today. "And Crowfeather," Onestar continued with ice in his voice. "Can join Heathertail's hunting patrol." Crowfeather brightened a bit; slightly happy he was going with his former apprentice, until Heathertail looked away from him. Crowfeather flattened his ears and padded away with the rest of the patrol. I don't need this! Crowfeather darted away from the patrol, ignoring their yowls of threats. Crowfeather collapsed exhausted and lay there panting. The he got back up and padded into the direction of thunderclan camp.

. . .

(Leafpool's POV….decided to do something different.)

"Leafpool!" The soft hissing came from the dirtplace tunnel. Leafpool padded through it and wrinkled her nose against its odors. Then she gave a mew of delight to see her old mate again.

"Crowfeather? What are you doing here you old furball?" She mewed. Crowfeather hesitated.

"Come with me again. You're a warrior now, not a medicine cat. They don't need you anymore, and Windclan don't want me now either." Leafpool smiled. "Yes, we can leave now." Both cats snuck out of the dirtplace tunnel the same way Crowfeather came in and then raced across the territory until they came to a stop at a place that had twisted trees and scorched bracken.

"Remember this place?" Crowfeather's low mew was tainted by sadness as he remembered how they turned back to save their clans' by the Badgers that had come back for revenge.

"We won't need to come back." Crowfeather murmured. Leafpool nodded, swallowing sadness. I'm sorry starclan. Those were last thoughts before her and Crowfeather disappeared from the clan territories.

(A/N: sorry if it's short, please R&R some ideas to me soon! )
