A/N Okay peeps, chapter one is up now! Sorry for not updating, I was very busy.
Chapter One
Squirrelflight blinked open her eyes blearily. It was dawn, and it had been a year since she and Brambleclaw had broken up. She was getting used to it, but it still hurt to see him ignore her everyday. Fortunately, she had Leafpool beside her, and her adopted kits had finally forgiven her. However, every time she looked at Brambleclaw, a thorn sharp grief pierced her heart, and it was like she was bleeding on the stones. I'm sorry, Ashfur. I know how you feel now. She thought silently. "Squirrelflight, want to go on the dawn patrol?" Firestar asked her. "No, I'm going hunting." She said, her voice cracking slightly. How could she act like that? She was always strong and brave! But her courage and dignity had gone away now. "Are you sure? Perhaps you need some rest." Firestar asked her, concern clear in his mew. "The Clan needs to be fed first." She said stubbornly, and whirled around to stalk towards the thorn barrier. She soon spotted a rabbit, and crouched down to stalk it. Someone behind her stepped on a twig, and startled, the rabbit darted to safety. "Watch where you're going, you mousebrain!" She snapped, twirling around to look at who it was, interrupting her hunt like that. Amber eyes stared back at her coldly. "Is this the way you speak to the Clan deputy?" Brambleclaw asked icily. "Then watch where you're going!" she hissed angrily. He deserves to get shouted at. "And do not ever cross my path when I'm hunting, otherwise I will use your fur to line my pelt!" She spat the last words with contempt, but instantly regretted it, as a flash of pain and remorse shone through his amber orbs. However, it was gone immediately, and the sadness turned to anger. "You are in no position to threaten the deputy. Now get on with hunting!" he bellowed. Squirrelflight turned around and stalked away, every hair on her pelt prickling with annoyance.
A/N How was it? Good? Okay? Bad? Review, please, and again, sorry for not updating. I luv u reviewers! And BTW I made them quarrel because Brambleclaw is mad at Squirrelflight for lying, and Squirrelflight is mad at Brambleclaw for ditching her so easily. And if you're wondering why Squirrelflight has mixed emotions, it's because she wants to be tough, but sometimes shows her real emotions. Poor Squirrelflight
