Crowfeather x Feathertail/Leafpool

Chp. 2: Angry Love

Leafpool's View

'I CAN'T BELIEVE IT!!!!! OH NOOOOOOO! CROWIE!' Leafpool sang as she faced the Moonpool. 'Crow, crow, crow... Now I am all alone ...'

'Leafpool?' the she-cat jumped. It was Firestar. 

Firestar half-grinned, 'Well, I still remember a time when medicine cats aren't allow to have mate, until Moth Flight got banished.'

Leafpool nodded briefly, 'Cinderpelt told me. Who, by the way, is totally in love with you.  She made me think that I am her daughter!' 

With that, she broke into giggles, feeling lighter than ever in the night. 

Cinderpelt ran out. Clearly she heard, 'LEAFPOOL!!! YOU DIDN'T- Ooh, heyy, Firrestarr.' 

Firestar's ginger-pelt skin couldn't save him from the blushing.

'Hand on right there,' Leafpool added cheekily, 'I am calling Sandstorm! SANDSTORM!!!'

Sandstorm sprinted out seconds later, just catching a stumbling Firestar 'chatting' with Cinderpelt, blushing and looking all loving.

'YOU DIDN'T!' Sandstorm roared. Leafpool slipped out, and managed to fall asleep.

But when Leafpool was awake, she started feeling bad. It wasn't Firestar's fault that Featherstorm returned and united with Crowie. 

She glanced out, nervous, but jumped when she saw blood where she had stood. Before she even took a step, Squirrelflight crashed into her. 

'What did you do?' she cried. 

Leafpool ran straight to the medicine den. She found Barkface there. Cinderpelt and Sandstorm were both unconscious, with a Firestar watching over both of them. 

Mothwing was staring at her in surprise. Littlecloud clearly looked puzzled too. Leafpool glanced at her paws.

However, all Mothwing asked was, 'I heard you were present.'

'SHE WAS!' Suddenly, Firestar's saw her. His anger shook her, and he attacked her with unsheathed claws. 

Leafpool gasped, as more blows hit. Screaming, she felt the world went black, and if she woke up, it was ages later.

Crowfeather's POV

Feathertail screamed, 'Look out! Don't risk your life for her!'

Crowfeather sighed, ignoring the other she-cat. He knocked into Firestar, who was immediately held down by the other medicine cats.

'Seriously, we have enough to take care of,' Barkface groaned. Littlecloud, still frozen in shock, had not moved. Mothwing went to check on Leafpool immediately. 

Crowfeather blinked. He had rushed in without thinking, and now Feathertail was bond to know that he cared.

'I cared for her. She is a close friend. And I know she is to you too,' he defended also as soon as the thought came to his mind. 

To his relief, Feathertail nodded. After spending the night together, and briefly with Leafpool, surely she had no suspicion of whether Crowfeather was in love with Leafpool. 

Crowfeather was also bleeding, and Littlecloud directed him to a next nearby. A soft groan came from Cinderpelt, and he went to check on her. 

Firestar froze, staring at Leafpool. What had he done that for? She is his daughter, after all. 

Barkface had left him, kneeling next to a terrified Mothwing. Firestar slowly got to his feet, and he ran. He ran out. 

Feathertail shuffled after Firestar, but kept her distance. 

'Is Leafpool alive?' Crowfeather asked in a soft whisper, and was responded by a soft voice, 'Leafpool? Firestar didn't-'

A gasp followed. Cinderpelt was awake now. She glanced at the body of Sandstorm then back. 'I hope she made it,' she mumbled.
