Hello, StarClan (Chapter 10)
How was Cinderpaw supposed to keep her new secret? That she, a MED CAT'S APPRENTICE From ThunderClan, fell in love with a multigendred cat from ShadowClan?! HOW?Cinderpaw sat in The medicine den, alone. No one was in there at that hour, not even Yellowclaw. It was a good place to think.
And think she would.
Maybe... Even pray?
"Oh, StarClan! C-can you hear me? Testing? Testing, testing, 1, 2, 3. Umm... Hello? It's me. I was wondering if after all I've done you would still talk to me, to go over everything. They say time's supposed to heal you, but I haven't done much healing...
"Hello? Can you hear me? I'm in the med den dreaming of what I'll never be, even when I'm older and free. I've forgotten how it felt when Silver still loved me.
"There's such a difference between us and a million seasons.
"SO HELLO FROM THE OTHER SIDE (I regret nothing) I MUST'VE CALLED A THOUSAND TIMES! To tell you I'm sorry for everything that I've done, but when I call you you never seem to be home.
"SO HELLO FROM THE OUTSIDE! AT LEAST I CAN SAY THAT I TRIED to tell you I'm sorry for breaking the code, but when I call you you always give me the cold
"Shoulder...
"Hello... Can you help me? It's so typical for cats to talk about themselves. I'm failing. I beg for your help. I hope you can help out anybody and everybody. It's no secret that all of us are running out of time.
"SO–
"Cinderpaw, just WHAT are you doing?" A very tired Yellowclaw asked. "Oh, uh, talking to StarClan? We're having a very one-sided conversation."
"Oh, well can you keep it down? And stop singing." Her ears perked. I was singing? "Was I good?" Yellowclaw smiled. "Amazing. But try to use your talents for healing cats." "Oh, o-ok." She smiled again.
"It's ok. Now come here. You must be exhausted."
~Le time skip brought to you by Adele, no duh.~
Yellowclaw was humming to herself, collecting herbs, when a black and white cat popped down.
"I see two purple eyes. Does a certain little she-cat want to talk to me?" Cinderpaw asked.
"Yup."
"Well talk away."
"No, no, no. You look busy, I'll leave you be." She started to slip away, but Cinderpaw caught her tail.
"Nyam it... Hahah, ha... You know what I said? About wanting to talk to you? Yeah, I take it back...." "Oh no! No you don't. What is it?" "Well..."
"Ok,IknowIsaidIloveyou,And I do,buthowis thissupposedtowork,Imean,Ihavetwogendersandthat'sreallyweird,howisitallsupposedtoworkout,AndI'minShadowClan,You'reinThunderClan, and–"
Cinderpaw took her and hugged her tightly.
"I don't care if you're a guy, a girl, a ShadowClan warrior, a Rogue, a kittypet, I love you. I don't care if I'm a medicine cat, A ThunderClan warrior, a rogue, dead, I will always love you." She rubbed noses with her.
"I don't care about any superficial nonsense. I will ALWAYS. Love you.
"...."
"No matter what..."
And they sat there, staring into each other's eyes, sitting together until the sun set. And even then they sat there, tails entwined, staring at the beautiful red and orange view. In other words,
Love is timeless.
