Hollyleaf padded up to the fourtrees. She sat down watching the sun set.

Mountainfur had not been expecting a day like today. Nor a night quite like it, either. First of all, there was Streakwater. The longer he was away from Hollyleaf, the more he fell for the beautiful, lithe and sweet she-cat that he knew so well. And today she had actually started talking to him in that lovy-dovy kind of way. And then, the night several moons ago... He shook his head, getting rid of the image there. And pretty soon, she was admitting that she liked him. And then he said the most shocking thing to part his lips. Yes, in fact, more shocking then
"I'm going to WindClan, Ebonypaw." And those words were five.
"I love you too, Streakwater." At that moment, he realized that he had slipped up. And now he was torn between two roads, one of his ThunderClan love and one of his new love. The crossroad led to one side, a smooth and level hillside. The other showed a dangerous, rocky cliff-face with many twists, turns and leaps that if he miss-stepped or jumped too little he would fall down to his death. But he did like the challenge of the road, so he was again torn by choice.
It was then at dusk Mountainfur decided to take a walk. A long walk. This walk led him down to Fourtrees, where he saw a familiar silver shape in the distance.
"Streakwater? Streakwater!" He called out, suddenly realizing his folly. He stopped dead in his tracks, tumbling head over tail down to the trees below.
"Hollyleaf, sorry. I thought you were... someone else." He then realized that maybe the smooth road would be the clearest path to StarClan. He would take it. But first, it meant separating from Hollyleaf.
"Look, Hollyleaf, we need to talk."

"Mountainfur?! you startled me." Hollyleaf purred padded up to him and licked his head. "I'm glad I finally get to see you, I was getting lonely and homesick. Plus, I also need to tell you something, but you tell me what you need to first!" She smiled at him sitting down.

[Nawz! He's gotta learn... ish important to my plotz!]
He smiled, suddenly feeling nervous.
"No, please, you go first. I can wait." He smiled and nodded.

"OK then...well I-I thinking I'm pregnant with our kits." Hollyleaf a little nervous looking up at him with love and care. "I'm was kinda nervous about it but I have you here now to help me." She purred.

Mountainfur would've choked on his prey had he been eating. All this time, he was going to become Streakwater's mate, and now this. It was turning into a downright disaster!
"Hollyleaf, I-I don't... don't know what to say." He was terrified and loving and nervous and confused. But the one thing he was not was excited. This was going to be VERY bad. No, not very bad. Extremely bad. Extra-extra-extremely bad. With a gasp and a strange noise that sounded kind of like choking, he turned and raced away into the night.
And through the eyes of a most watchful Taintedfall, the tom felt his heart give out. He was watching a mirror image of what had happened so long ago. It was night of No Moon, as he had always called it. The dark shadows looming over him, hungry to devour his presence in a heartbeat. He saw his love at their usual meetings place, Fourtrees. When she had spoken this, he felt almost frozen stiff with fear. He had turned and had walked away slowly, pondering this. Soon he was killed by a feral dog, and poor Appletail thought he had run off in fear. He couldn't et this happen to Mountainfur. So as the tom ran, his father hurried down to stop Mountainfur however possible. Neither of them saw the dog until it leaped.
With a screech, Mountainfur raced from it's presence, heading for Fourtrees without much thought. As he did so, Taintedfall made a very important choice. The old cat hurried to meet Hollyleaf.
"Mountainfur will be okay. You must get to safety. No time to run. Hurry up into a tree!" The old cat scrambled up into the highest branches of the tallest tree, and then waited for Hollyleaf. As soon as he was sure she was safe, he left back to StarClan to watch and wait.
Canyonpaw had never thought he'd hear or see another Clan cat again. After all, he was lost. But as soon as the screech of a fighting warrior rang through his mind, he leaped to the rescue. After a few twists and turns he had come out of WindClan rather dazed, and stumbled upon the cats fighting the feral dog. The dog was not as big as anyone had expected, but it was big enough. It was about the length of two cats, and had sharp teeth and uncut claws. They snagged on Mountainfur's grey pelt and tore his fur to shreds. Canyonpaw leaped onto the dog, blinding him with a flash of claw. The feral dog turned and swiftly ran away. Both toms were stunned by it's speedy exit.
"That was... odd." Mountainfur stated, confused.

Hollyleaf laid down on the tree branch with her head on her paws thinking about what had happen; Not just with the dogs but with her and Mountainfur. She guessed he fell in love with another she-cat and that's why he was freaked that she was pregnant. She then sighed.

Mountainfur quickly glanced up at Hollyleaf.
"I need to tell you something." He told her, waiting until she had come down to speak. Canyonpaw headed off almost instantly after the dog was gone.
"Look, you see, there's this cat named Streakwater. And I really like her. And I don't know who I should love more, because you see, she's nice and fun and she's in WindClan. But I really do love you, probably more than I love her. Yeah, definitely more than I love her. She's a friend, but I think she might become more than that soon. It's hard to love you when you're never around. Would I convince you to maybe..." He trailed away, knowing it was way too much to ask her. So he shrugged and gave up.
"I know you would never do it, and it is wrong for me to ask you. But I miss you and seeing your would help me." He hoped she would understand that he was implying she join WindClan with him. He really was hoping.
"Well, I guess this is... goodbye?"

"I will join Windclan with you but only if you promise me now to stay faithful and true to me and be a honorable father our kits." Hollyleaf meowed to Mountainfur in a gentle, sweet voice. She loved Mountainfur with all her heart but she didn't want to share a mate with another. It's not the will or ways of StarClan.

"Thank you!" He nuzzled her. "I promise." He felt so excited he thought he could've run all the way around the world and be back in time for sunrise. Or he could float away to StarClan. Of course his paws stayed firmly planted on the Fourtrees earth, and he did not move an inch. Suddenly, all his exhaustion weighed on him like someone had dropped several cats onto his back in the expectation of his carrying them. He turned to go, then reconsidered something.
"You coming now?" He asked.

Hollyleaf sighed. "No, I can't because Mountainfur...your sister is missing. Ebonytail is somewhere in TrueClan...Come with us and find her. We could use your help."

"I cannot leave my..." He reconsidered. Could he fall in love with Streakwater in a moon? So he had to go along.
"Fine, but it better be quick. I can't leave WindClan long." He sighed. Oh, idiot Ebonytail. She has nothing in her brain but mouse bile and beeswax.
"Which way?" He said slightly annoyed.

Hollyleaf pointed her tail to the way she came. "That way." She meowed padding out of the fourtrees with her mate.
