Wolf Master here, here is the next chapter, Happy Easter, and Praise Jesus. Oh and to make sure no one gets this the wrong way, I do NOT want Firestar to die. In my option his death would ruin the clan. In a word, suicide, suicide everywhere. Also I do answer questions. I post the answer in the reviews section. Ill be specific to who the answer is for.

Disclaimer: I do not own Warriors or the Warriors cats but I do own Sagemind, Emeraldkit Rubykit, and Saphirekit..

Chapter 5: Forgiveness

It had been a moon since Cinderheart and Lionblaze had become mates again. Lionblaze had become so happy that she was back with him and, to top it all off, Cinderheart was pregnant with two kits. Briarlight had also given birth to 5 kits, Grasskit, Mosskit, Featherkit, Poolkit, and Rainkit. (I will not describe there appearance, I don't feel like it. You can make them look however, you want them to.)

Every night since Lionblaze and Cinderheart became mates again, Jayfeather had dreams of Half Moon. Usually they were of him and here chasing each other in a large, lush field. Cuddling, grooming, wrestling, they did it all. He loved her so much, he was almost sure she was in his dream, that that she was there, with him. He felt so happy when he was with her. But lately the usual love fests started getting more… intense. Half Moon would pin him, lick him, seduce him, and… other methods. But right before she got what she wanted, (author comment, Giggity) someone would wake Jayfeather up, ripping him away from her. Today was no exception.

Jayfeather was in the field, chasing Half Moon around. Suddenly she stopped, causing Jayfeather to fall on top of her. His mouth accidently grabbed her scurf in the process.

"Oooo, is someone getting anxious?" Half Moon purred seductively.

"Uuumm, I… uh… I'm sorry I, uh , you ,umm." Jayfeather stuttered, trying to form the words.

"It's ok," Half Moon purred. "I like were you are." (author comment, Giggity) Jayfeather stiffened and hoped off of Half Moon, looking highly embarrassed. Half Moon smiled and got up. She walked towards him, swaying her hips. Jayfeather shifted uncomfortably at her walking style. She noticed this and smiled wider.

"So," she purred. "about that family." Jayfeather had a look of surprise on his face. "Come on Jay's Wing, I know you want to. Let's start a family. I want kits."

"I know, Half Moon. I want kits just as much as you do, but I have a duty to my clanmates. You gave me that duty. Aren't you going to come and help?" Jayfeather asked. Half Moon signed.

"Yes, I guess I did do that didn't I," she meowed. "I'll get the others and come and help."

"Thank you," Jayfeather purred. He buried his nose in her fur, drinking in her beautiful scent.

"Go, get started on another, I come and help." Half Moon meowed as he left.

Jayfeather woke to his blindness. He wondered why Half Moon was acting like that, then he remembered it was newleaf, the mating season. He was smiling largely. He stretched out and padded out of the den., still smiling.

"What's got you all happy?" Squirrelflight enquired.

"Oh, nothing, just a good dream." Jayfeather responded then said with concern. "Are things getting any better with you and Bramblestar?"

"No, I don't think they ever will. He hates me now," She responded sadly.

"He does not hate you!" Jayfeather meowed. Squirrelflight looked at him with a very sad look.

"I wish I could believe you, but I can't. He acts as if I don't exist." Oh yeah, then why do you fill his dreams? Jayfeather wished he could tell her what he knew.

"Have you tried explaining why you did it?" Jayfeather asked.

"He won't give me enough time or attention to explain." She paused. "Jayfeather, is it worth it, saying here, I'm sure Ashfur would be delighted to see me again."

"Don't you dare think that way!" Jayfeather growled. "You have no right to think that way, if you go through with that, you'll kill Bramblestar, Leafpool, and Sandstorm. Hang in there, I'm going to fix this, all of this."

"How will you do that?" Squirrelflight asked. "Bramblestar won't listen to me."

"That may be true," Jayfeather meowed. "But he'll listen to his medicine cat. And I know the reasons." Jayfeather's face got serious. "Everything will be alright; you knew what you were doing and it was very hard for you to keep that secret. I'll fix this." Jayfeather paused and glanced towards the leaders den. "Wait here."

Jayfeather padded towards Bramblestar's den. When he entered, he found the leader starring off into the end of the den. Jayfeather used his power to see what he was thinking, and he saw, not to his surprise, images of Squirrelflight everywhere. Him and her wrestling, them on the great journey, coming to the lake.

"Bramblestar," Jayfeather meowed. Bramblestar turned from his daydreaming.

"Yes Jayfeather, is there something I could for you?" Bramblestar meowed.

"Yes, there is something," Jayfeather meowed calmly. "But not for me. I want you to forgive Squirrelflight."

Bramblestar gasped and choked on his breath. After a few coughs he turned sharply, surprised to expertly.

"You want me to WHAT? No I will not, she lied to me! She didn't trust me!." Bramblestar yowled.

"It had nothing to do with trust," Jayfeather, still calm, meowed. "She lied to protect you, to protect us, to protect mom, to protect the clan."

"How is lying protecting?" Bramblestar meowed. Jayfeather sighed and paced.

"What is the one thing, at the time, any cat could trust you to always follow?"

"The warrior code," Bramblestar meowed confused. "But what does that have do with anything?" Jayfeather ignored the last part.

"And technically, what am I." Jayfeather asked.

"A loyal medicine cat," Bramblestar meowed, realizing where Jayfeather was going, but not wanting to admit it.

"No," Jayfeather meowed. "I am a living, breathing violation of that code. The code says that I shouldn't exist. If Squirrelflight told you, she would basically asking you to go against the code. How would she live with herself knowing that she would have cost you deputy, leader, and forcing you to break the code." Jayfeather gave s second for what he said to sink in. "And if we had known, who could we have been raise by the code if we knew we were breaking it by simply living. She wanted to tell you, but she couldn't put you in that position." Bramblestar stood speechless. Then Jayfeather heard Half Moon's voice. He's not convinced; show him Squirrelflight's pain use your power.

"Bramblestar," Jayfeather meowed. Bramblestar looked at him. "I'm sorry about this but, I need to show you the pain she's in." Before Bramblestar could ask what Jayfeather meant. He heard a painful sharp screech.

Bramblestar started to yowled as the screech grew. His ears rang and blood poured from them. He continued to yowl. Then he felt something in his crest. It burned right were his heart was . Bramblestar doubled over from the pain. Then it was gone. He opened his eyes to see he was staring at Jayfeather.

"And that is just one day's pain. Forgive her, end both of your suffering. And that's not a request. That is an order form your medicine cat." Jayfeather said and left the den.
