Well, I made up a little song to go with Chapter 26, and it sounded good, so I decided to take my favourite song and put it with this chapter. 333 It's called Don't You Want Me by The Human League.

DISCLAIMER: I DO NOT OWN WARRIORS OR DON'T YOU WANT ME OR THE HUMAN LEAGUE!!! GET THAT IN YOUR LITTLE HEAD ALREADY!!! :(

Okay, I ONLY decided to do the disclaimer 'cause, y'know; I don't want people to get the wrong idea.

OMG VACUUM CLEANER!!!! :P My Mom is running the VACUUM CLEANER. :P

(I don't know exactly WHY I'm so fascinated by that. But I am. XD)

ALSO; Gingerstar14, if you were expecting to win, you are probably sadly mistaken!!!! :( If you can only write 4 chapters in, like, 2 hours, then you'll probably be staying up ALL NIGHT if you want to beat us!!!! :) (brackenfurlover and I BOTH have 27 chapters up now. 333 Yes, that's right, peoples; I have ALL the way up to Chapter 27 done!!!! :D)

Well, enjoy! ;3

Rejected

You were working as a waitress in a cocktail bar

When I met you

I picked you out

I shook you up

And turned you around

Turned you into someone new

Today was the day that Brackenfur was going to admit his love for Whitestream. She was just so perfect…. he had loved her for a long time.

Maybe we can even be mates, he thought happily. Brackenfur got out of his nest and started walking towards the den entrance. It was just dawn; Brackenfur was hoping that he could go on the dawn patrol!

"Hey," he called to the cats waiting by the camp entrance as he walked out of the warriors' den. "Can I come on the dawn patrol with you?"

Roseheart looked pleased. "Sure! We could always use an extra cat or two."

Now five years later on you've got the world at your feet

Success has been so easy for you

But don't forget it's me who put you where you are now

And I can put you back out, too

Pretty soon, the deputy, Snakepelt, came bouncing out of the leader's den. He had a brown mottled pelt; that's why he was named Snakepelt.

"Let's go!" he meowed happily, running out of the camp entrance. Roseheart, Brackenfur, and Swallowpaw followed him.

Don't, Don't you want me?

You know I can't believe it when I hear that you won't see me

Don't, Don't you want me?

You know I don't believe you when you say that you don't need me

Later, when they returned, they were pleased to report that all was peaceful on both borders. Not even ShadowClan had made a play for their territory; their border was marked, but there was no sign of any kind of dispute. With the WindClan border, it was the same. Everything was fine there, too.

It's much too late to find

And you think you've changed your mind

You'd better change it back

Or we will both be sorry!

At sunhigh, Brackenfur nervously got ready to tell Whitestream about his love for her. He was very nervous.

What if she rejects me? What then? he thought desperately. If that happens…. well, then; I'll be heart-broken.

Don't you want me, baby?

Don't you want me? Ohhhhh!
Don't you want me, baby?

Don't you want me? Ohhhhh!

He went to the fresh-kill pile and took a mouse. He gulped it down hungrily. Whitestream soon daintily finished her food, and he went over to her.

"Uh…. Whitestream?" he said quietly. "Could you come out into the forest with me for a moment, please?"

She looked up at him worriedly. "Why; is something wrong?"

"No, n-nothing's wrong," Brackenfur stammered. "I-I just want to t-talk to you."

Whitestream nodded, but said nothing. Brackenfur led the way into the forest.

I was working as a waitress in a cocktail bar

That much is true

But even then I knew I'd find a much better place

Either with or without you

Once they were a little ways into the forest, Brackenfur sat down in a sheltered, sunny glade. Whitestream sat down opposite him.

With earnest eyes, Brackenfur said, "Whitestream, I have to tell you something. I-I'm in love with you."

The five years we have had have been such good times

I still love you!

But now I think it's time I lived my life on my own

I guess it's just what I must do

Whitestream gasped. "Ah—what?!" she exclaimed.

"Y-Yes," Brackenfur said nervously, avoiding her gaze.

"Oh, Brackenfur, that's lovely—" Brackenfur's spirits lifted for a moment "—but I'm in love with someone else already. I'm sorry."

Don't, Don't you want me?

You know I can't believe it when I hear that you won't see me

Don't, Don't you want me?

You know I don't believe you when you say that you don't need me

"I-I understand." Brackenfur looked at his paws, his heart breaking and shattering into a million little pieces, never to be whole again. "Who is he?"

"Oh—it's—it's your brother, Cloudpelt," Whitestream mewed. She blinked. "I'm sorry, Brackenfur."

It's much too late to find

You think you've changed your mind

You'd better change it back

Or we will both be sorry!

"Don't you want me, even a little bit?" Brackenfur asked desperately. "I love you with all of my being!"

"No, Brackenfur." Whitestream's voice was firm now. "I'm going back to camp now, if you don't mind."

"N-No, that's okay," Brackenfur muttered, looking down at his paws again.

He had been rejected.

Don't you want me, baby?

Don't you want me? Ohhhhh!

Don't you want me, baby?

Don't you want me? Ohhhhh!
