Wednesday,
As I heard the words come out of Flamestrike's mouth, "Icefur, Will you be my-", I cried "ICEFUR! What are you doing?!?!" Icefur and Flamestrike popped up and looked at me surprised. Tears were rolling down my cheeks. "Hawkfire? What are you doing here?" Icefur asked. "Uh, I'll see you two later." said Flamestrike, disappearing from the gorge. I sniffed, fighting back more tears. "I was right. You are not the cousin I know and love." "So what? Why can't I find love?!?" retorted Icefur. "You are just changing! Flamestrike is a perfect match for you, but it's not like we are litter mates anymore." I told her. "What?!?" Icefur was obviously confused. I realized this was all my fault. She was right that I had no use in stopping them. "Hawkfire?" Icefur said as I looked away. "Nothing, Just go away. Away with Flamestrike. Go and live happily away from me and have a little family." I said to her. She could tell I wasn't ready for her to "grow up". But Icefur just hissed at me. "I can't believe you!" she spat. Then, She tackled me and pinned me to the ground. Her paws were wet and her claws were sharp. "I was right." I repeated. "You are not the cousin I know." Icefur was furious, I could see it in her eyes. Is this what love makes you into? Suddenly, Flamestrike came through the bushes and saw Icefur about to swipe my eyes out. "Icefur?!?"
