Hi there readers-

I posted the last chapter rather late last night, and with my Alaska time zone a bunch of you guys must've been asleep.

...

I really don't know why I said that.

...

So anyway... since only one person answered the quiz question, the quiz question will remain the same.

Episode 4: Smudge, Bramblestar, Barley

Leafpool kicked open the auditorium doors. She carried a brown paper bag in one hand and a large plastic jug in the other. Rosebark and Ivypool were sitting on the bleachers, chatting about miscellanious events that happened around Santa Monica.

"Morning, ladies!" the brown-and-white she-cat greeted. Rosebark jumped from the bleachers and over to Leafpool.

"Whatcha got there?" Rosebark asked as Ivypool hopped down beside her. Leafpool held up the paper bag.

"Daisy's Muffinz for the staff to eat later."

"No, whatcha got in the large plastic jug?" the white cat explained.

"Bleach. Why?" Leafpool asked. Ivypool snorted.

"What, are you doing our laundry too?"

"No, I'm bleaching my eyes!" Leafpool said cheerfully. Rosebark and Ivypool's jaws dropped to the floor. Leafpool continued on walking to the staff room. The announcer and the camera cat ran after the insane hostess.

"You can't bleach your eyes, you'll go blind!" Rosebark warned the brown-and-white she-cat.

"Nah." Leafpool said and kept on walking.

"Did you take your meds this morning?" Ivypool asked her, jogging to keep up with the she-cat's fast pace. Leafpool stopped.

"Excuse me? I do not need to take medicine! Now, whether I took my vitamins this morning is a secret." Leafpool started walking again, leaving behind her concerned friends. She pushed open the doors to the staff room. Breezepelt was sitting on the couch, reading a newspaper and sipping at his coffee. He looked up at the hostess plainly.

"Oh great, you're here early too." he scoffed. "The staff room is off limits."

"Why? So you can knit yourself another hat in secret?" Leafpool retorted. Breezepelt flinched.

"You know very damn well my mother knitted this hat!" Breezepelt hissed, tearing his hat off his head and shoving it in Leafpool's face.

"Sure she did. Anyways," Leafpool said, putting the muffins in the fridge and the bleach on the table. "Can you help me with something?"

"Why the hell do you want me to help you with something?" Breezepelt asked.

"Because you're the only one who will do it." Leafpool pointed out. Breezepelt sighed.

"What do you want?"

"I want you to knit me a hat." Leafpool giggled. Breezepelt growled.

"I'm kidding! I'm kidding. I need you to pour this bleach into my eyes." Breezepelt folded his newspaper.

"You want me to pour bleach into your eyes."

"Yes, that's correct." Breezepelt sighed.

"Okay." He entered the door that read 'SECURITY' and soon came back with a large table. He placed the table on the ground and patted the surface.

"Hop up here."

"Why can't I just sit on the table right there?" Leafpool sighed and pointed to the table right there.

"Do you want me to do this or not?" Breezepelt sighed.

"Yes! Yes. Sorry." Leafpool said and hopped on the the metal table. She laid down and awaited further instructions.

"Make a 'T' with your body." Breezepelt commanded. Leafpool moved her arms so they were straight out to either side of her. Breezepelt strapped her arms down.

"Um... is this really necessary?" Leafpool said nervously. Breezepelt nodded and strapped down her legs.

"And while we wait, let's read the warnings on the back of this bleach!" Breezepelt said with a smile. "WARNING: Exposure to bleach can irritate the nose, eyes, skin, and lungs. Serious side effects of using bleach can include respiratory problems, skin burns, damage to the nervous system, asthma flares, extreme headaches, migraines, and vomiting. Keep away from eyes, nose, and mouth. Oh, what an interesting warning!" Leafpool wiggled nervously. Breezepelt took off the cap of the bleach. He poured the liquid into the cap way past the fill line.

"Ready, Leafy Dear? We pour the bleach in three... two..."


"Hello and welcome to Win a Date With Leafpool! I'm Ivypool, your announcer. Now please welcome to the stage Lea-" A bloodcurdling scream errupted from behind stage somewhere.

"Uh..."

"Hello and welcome to Win a Date With Ivypool!" Rosebark said as she jumped in front of the camera. "Today is a very special episode! We have Ivypool playing for Leafpool today!"

"Hey wait a minute!" Ivypool interrupted. "We definately did not talk this over!"

"Yes, well we talked it over in my mind. So go stand behind the green podium!" Rosebark told the pissed off she-cat.

"Well I say we do Win a Date With Rosebark!" Ivypool argued. Rosebark laughed and shook her head.

"I have a boyfriend, stupid." Rosebark had won this one. Ivypool glared at her best friend.

"Fine. But after the show, you won't ever hear the end of it." The tabby reluncantly stood behind the green podium.

"I'm Rosebark, your announcer for today. Let's bring out the toms! Smudge, Bramblestar, and Barley, come on out!" the white cat announced with a smile. So out came Smudge, Barley, and... Breezepelt? Rosebark slapped her forehead.

"Breezepelt, you're our security guard, not a contestant. Now where's Bramblestar?"

"He just called. He can't make it today." Breezepelt answered.

"Well okay. Just get over there." Rosebark huffed and pointed to the last brown podium. Once the black tom stood behind the podium, Rosebark continued.

"You toms are playing for a chance to take Leaf- er, Ivypool to Brackenfur's Fur Coat Store, where you get to pay for everything Ivypool decides to buy!"

"I could get used to this..." Ivypool said dreamily, hands on her chin.

"Okay, first question! Is Blackstar too white and nerdy?" Rosebark announced, reading her neon green notecard.

"Hey!" Blackstar shouted from the audience. "I am not too white and nerdy!"

"Yes, you really are." Ivypool told Blackstar with a nod of her head.

"Now shut up." Breezepelt said. He reached under the podium and pulled out a baseball. With deadly aim, he threw the baseball and hit Blackstar directly in the face.

"Just give all the toms a point." Ivypool told Rosebark.

"But no one answered!" she protested.

"Does it look like I care?" Ivypool snapped. Rosebark relunctantly drew tallies.

"All the toms have one point. Here's the next question. Who is the best looking she-cat on Earth?" The crowd 'Oooooooh'ed.

"Princess. You know, Firestar's sister?" Smudge admitted.

"..." Barley said.

"Not you too!" Ivypool sighed.

"No, I'm kidding. I don't really know. Rosebark is pretty hot though." Barley answered. Rosebark blushed. A very loud growl sounded from the audience.

"What was that?" Barley asked with a gulp.

"Rosebark's overly protective super-hot boyfriend." someone answered from the crowd. Barley gulped again.

"Heh." Ivypool chuckled. "Breezepelt, what's your answer?" Breezepelt was blushing madly.

"Oh, um..." he mumbled. He motioned for Rosebark to come over. The white she-cat bent down for the black tom to whisper something into her ear.

"Mmmmhmm. Okay!" Rosebark chirped. She headed back over to the board and drew three tally marks under Breezepelt's name.

"Ivy, how many points do you want to give Barley and Smudge?" The silver tabby blinked.

"Uh, give Barley two and Smudge one." Rosebark drew tallies. Ivypool was very confused.

"Here's the last question," Rosebark announced. "What is your favorite kind of cookie?"

"Chocolate Chip!" Smudge said, licking his lips.

"Peanut Butter!" Barley answered.

"Snickerdoodle." Breezepelt said plainly.

"Give Breezepelt a point. I love Snickerdoodles." Ivypool told Rosebark. Rosebark added a tally.

"Okay, Breezepelt is the winner with... five points, I think. I hope you have some money, Breezepelt! Brackenfur's Fur Coats are expensive..." she mumbled. Ivypool and Breezepelt glanced at eachother uncomfortably. Rosebark hopped in front of the camera.

"See you next time on Win a Date With Leafpool! Now to see what's up with Leaf-"
