Warriors: Willow's Fate

Chapter Three

Willowleaf awoke to yowls of pain. She sat up, eyes widened. "Whats going on?" she called to Sandcloud, who was cleaning herself.

Sandcloud looked up. "Mosscloud started kitting, and Heatherpool started not long after."

Willowleaf gasped. She rushed out of the warriors den and skidded in front of the nursery.

Tiny cries came from the den. "Is she done?" Willowleaf called. Goldenbell poked her head out.

"Yes, you may come and see them." she said. Willowleaf rushed in, seeing Skyflower suckling her kits.

Four tiny kits squirmed at Mossclouds belly. One was a grey shecat, one was another golden shecat, and there was a white shecat with gray spots, and a sandy orange tom.

Willowleafs eyes softened. "Have you tought of names?" she asked. Mosscloud nodded.

"The gray one is Dovekit, The gold shecat is Amberkit, the white one is Snowkit, and the tom is Thrushkit." she said

"Their beautiful names." she purred. Mosscloud nodded, her eyes drooping. "Go to sleep." she murmered, slipping over to Heatherpool.

Three kits suckled her belly. "Hi" she mewed. Heatherpool looked up at her. "Have you thought of names?" Heatherpool nodded.

Willowleaf yawned. "You can tell me tomorrow, im really tired." Heatherpool nodded.

Willowleaf padded to her nest, then slumped down in it. She curled her tail around her nose.

"Have you forgotten your promise, Willowpaw?" Foxheart snarled. "Im not Willowpaw anymore, Im Willowleaf!" she stated proudly.

Foxheart chuckled. "So your a warrior huh? You still havent learned everything yet." he hissed.

Willowleafs ears perked up. "Teach me more moves!" she pleaded. Foxheart shrugged.

"You dont come anymore...why should I?" Willowleafs face fell. "I'll come more. I promise!" she pleaded. Foxheart snarled.

"Fine."

"No no no! You have to roll then kick!" Foxheart yowled. Willowleaf hissed in frustration. She rolled as Foxheart charged towards her then kicked out with her back legs.

He went flying into the river. He shook out his pelt and trotted towards her. "Good." he grumbled.

"Now, leap at me. I will show you a new trick." he said. Willowleaf nodded and leaped high into the air as Foxheart crouched. When she was in mid-air, he leaped up and crashed into her, knocking her onto her back.

The wind was knocked from her, and Foxheart put his paw down on her neck. "Okay, now try that on me."

He leaped at Willowleaf, and she crashed into him. He was knocked backwards and she put a paw on his belly and neck. "Perfect. I like how you put a paw on my belly too." he purred.

His eyes suddenly darkened. "Wake up! Breezeclan is about to attack!" he hissed. Willowleaf was yanked out of her sleep.

She shot out of her nest and into the clearing. Runningstar stepped out, eyes glaring. "Attack!" she screeched.

Cats streamed out of their dens, eyes wide. Willowleaf leaped onto Runningstar. He flicked her away. She crouched down, and Runningstar yowled and leaped at her.

She flew up and crashed into him. He was knocked onto his back. She planted a paw onto his belly and neck. His eyes glittered with hatred.

"Go ahead, kill me. After all, Blossomclan is just a bunch of Warrior Code Breakers." he hissed. Foxheart appeared next to her. "Dont kill him! Leave him bad wounds" he whispered.
