IMO

For this IMO, many users PMed me an answer to this question: What is your favorite TFCG item to send in? Do you dig making funny comics to crack up readers? Or do you prefer sending letters for Cinderpelt to answer with sincerity? Maybe you favor telling the forum your opinions with the IMO! Here are their answers!

Karma: Hmm... My favorite thing to send in EH?? Hmmm. I would have to say.... comics?? They r fun. Quite fun. Mhm. Yess.

Dragonstar: I wuv comics! And now I'm going to be sending in riddles as well!

Wolf: I don't really have a favorite thing to send in, though when I have time to do so, I (obviously) send in IMOs and, more recently, advertisements for my RPG (which anyone who has or has not seen should check out. =P)

The next IMO: Do you like the new column, 10 Things I Didnt Know About You? Or are you just not feeling it? What are some questions you think would be fun to answer in that column? Send your thoughts to Moonstar, and your answer most likely will appear in the next issue! Please do not post your answer, PM it to me. ^_-

User Interview!

Caution: Contains spoilers for Harry Potter: The Half Blood Prince book AND movie.

TFCG: Hey, Dawnsers! I don't know what it's like where you live, but I've had terrible weather here. Thanks for taking some time to answer a few questions for me! Now the 'Sunny day' of my summer was the new "Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince" movie. How'd you like it?

Dawnsers: The new Harry Potter was a great movie. It had some really fantastic special effects, like when Harry put his head into the faucet with the memories. I think that this was on of the greater Harry Potters. Especially, the part where Ginny and Harry kiss. But, some of the story plot wasn't the same.

TFCG: It was definitely my favorite book, and the best movie yet, IMO. I loved how they changed the kissing scene to the Room of Requirement. So they definitely made changes in the movie from the book. Did you like them? Were there any big parts missing, or something little you wished was in it? Did you like the added parts?

Dawnsers: I actually thought the changes were better. I also thought the added part where Belltrix Lestrange appears at the Burrow. The only bad thing was when Hermione got made at Ron and sent the birds at him, they didn't hurt him.

TFCG: Oh yes, I remember he had scratches for days afterward! The only part I noticed they left out that made me upset, was the battle after Dumbledore died. The DA and Order were supposed to be up, protecting the school after, and during when he died. Did you notice? What were your thoughts on that?

Dawnsers: Yeah, I felt mad when they didn't have the battle. The battle was pretty intense. But, the sad part was watching Harry cry over Dumbledore. Oh, they also left out the part where Harry dumps Ginny.

TFCG: And Bill getting mauled, and engaged! I hope they do put those three things in the Seventh Movie, part one. To wrap it up, what are your thoughts for the seventh movie, part one? Are you glad they're putting it in parts? Do you think they should add anything? Take away anything? Where should they separate it?

Dawnsers: I think splitting it up is better because then instead of seeing just one more Potter film, we can see two. I really don't think they should add anything because the seventh book is great. Um, I think they should separate when they Ron gets all made at Harry and Hermione and storms off.

TFCG: Thanks so much for not getting annoyed at my pestering! Hope the weather gets nicer, and I hope you like the Seventh movie! :3

Dawnsers: Your welcome, Lily!

Fan Mail!

Dear TFCG,
I love The Four Clans Gazette!!!!!! I hope it lives *forever!* continue sending in things!!! I COMMAND YOU.
Adios,

Ask Cinderpelt!

Dear Cinderpelt,
Greetings!!
First of all, I would like to say that I love your advice and Its all very helpful! Second of all... my question. So I have some friends that are really talented... but not in all areas. They keep asking me if I really think their good in some of their less qualified areas of expertise. Of course I tell them I love it, and I offer some advice. Is that bad?? I just hate lying...
From,
What Am I Doing Wrong?

Dear What Am I Doing Wrong?,
Just to start I have to say thank you so much for that! It made me smile a great deal ^^
Now on to your question, it can be tough to decide when its okay to tell the complete and tactful truth to people you care about. Its even harder on them to know that you werent telling the complete truth if they ever find out. If their less talented areas need improving, instead of just saying you love it, give some helpful encouraging advice to help them improve. For example, if you friend isnt all that good with drawing and they show you their picture, you can compliment their progress so far but encourage them and give a few tips on how to get even better. Such as using a certain technique for coloring or how to darken the lines on the sketch. Little things like that will help your friends know that they can improve even more and it wont hurt because you are helping them to better at whatever it is they do. I hope any of this has helped.

Always concerned,
Cinderpelt

Dear Cinderpelt,

I ice skate, and I really don't have time to practice. I live pretty far away from the ice rink, and I really don't feel like skating sometimes. My mom gets all mad because she thinks I'm wasting money. Anyways..
There's this girl at the ice rink. She started WAYY after me, and she's really really good now. And my mom ALWAYS compares her to me. She's like, "She so good now; she's better than you," or, "Look at her! She's so good now!" Everything she says has the same meaning, 'The girl practices and she's now better than you even though she started after you'. I don't think my mom is trying to make me feel bad, but I get so annoyed! I practice when I'm at the rink, and I really try! I love skating and everything.. but my mom thinks I don't like it and Im wasting money. Everytime I mention ice skating, she goes on and on about how I waste money, and how she thinks I should quit. What should I do?

Best regards,
Ice Skating Troubles

Dear Ice Skating Troubles,
I know what its like to do something you like but arent always privileged to be able to do it. I have hobbies and sports I like to do as well and yet I dont always get to do them. I know it can be hard but hang in there. Now as for your mother comparing you to another girl, I dont think thats fair. She has more time and liberty to practice and so when your mother compares you to her, just ignore it. I know that sounds odd from me but you cant always take things from people. That's why we have 'backbones'. As for wasting money, money is a precious thing right now and I know it can be tough. Heck I live in a poor family myself. As for your mother saying that you should quit, unless you think you have no talent then dont. You like it and it makes you happy to do ice skating. Sticking with it will prove how dedicated you are to this. Dont get down hearted. Stand tall and proud and stick with your convictions. If you truly like ice skating stick with it. If not, then quit but from what I can tell you really do like it. I hope this has helped in any way.

Always concerned,
Cinderpelt

My world revolved around her
Now my world revolves around you
(My world)

How do you make someone understand something you yourself dont?

Why is the world so complicated?
Cant we just pick a side?

Was that too confusing? Lets try it another way. Why do I love you Leafpool? Its wrong, its terrible, its completely against the warrior code. After Feathertail, I thought it was over. I didnt believe I could love again. Sort of how I didnt believe I could live again once Feathertail died. Its funny how things work out, isnt it?

If you can tell
How I feel
Can you say something?
Cause I dont know what to say

Even now, with Nightclouds calm, loyal pelt pressing to my side, I still love you. Why? It doesnt make sense. I tried to make my world revolve around by becoming a better warrior. I tried to forget Feathertail. And then I tried to forget you Leafpool. I tried to give you up. What was I thinking?

If you can tell
How I feel
Can you say something?
Cause I dont know how
To talk to you

And yet, though you say youve moved on, I can see it in your eyes. You still love me too. I guess I shouldnt be surprised. StarClan never promised me an easy life. But I still wish that I could have back what we lost. What I loved so much. Maybe Feathertail and I werent destined for each other. Maybe we were wrong to fall in love in the first place. Only StarClan knows. But if I know once thing, Leafpool, its that we, you and I, were destined for each other. We werent wrong.

I tried to move on without her
Now Ill try to move on without you
(Ill try)

Sometimes, I hunt by the ThunderClan border, half hoping that Ill see you, so we can talk, and half hoping that youll stay in camp, where you belong, where youre safe, where you wont be breaking the warrior code. I know that everyone we know tries to keep us apart, but how can I help loving you? Youre beautiful, strong, smart Id better stop before I get carried away.

Why is the world so complicated?
Cant we just pick a side?

Sometimes, when Im at a Gathering, or talking to Squirrelflight, I feel your eyes on me, practically begging me to come over and talk to you. To stand with you and remind you to meet me at twilight, by the border. But it will never happen again. My Clanmates would recognize the distraction, the idiocy, the stupid, mouse-brained mistakes I made. Missing a rabbit, forgetting about patrols. Onestar would find out, and I would be confined to the camp for the rest of my life.

If you can tell
How I feel
Can you say something?
'Cause I don't know what to say

If Firestar knew how much you loved me, would he object to our relationship? I know with Onestar, it doesnt matter. But Firestar is your father, your leader. Would he object? Would he strip you of your medicine cat duties send Jaypaw to Moonpool to receive his full medicine cat powers? Or would he let it go on? He let Graystripe meet with Silverstream. Maybe he would let you meet with me.

If you can tell
How I feel
Can you say something?
Cause I dont know how
To talk to you
(Talk to you, talk to you, talk to you)

And maybe Im insane for even thinking about this anymore. Maybe Im getting the wrong picture. Maybe you dont love me anymore, and that look in your eyes is disgust, not love. Maybe Im just going insane, not feeling your pelt pressed against mine as we stare at the reflections of the stars bouncing off the blue water of the lake. Do you miss me at all Leafpool?

Can. You. Hear. Me.
Cry in the night?
Cause I cant even hear what youre saying
Can. You. Hear. Me.
Cry in the night?
Cause I cant even hear what youre saying
saying

Do you even care that I still love you? Do you even care that I wait by the border, staring into the forest, willing you to appear with my mind. Begging you to want me back with my thoughts. Do you care at all? Do you care that it was me who fished out your apprentice when he fell in the lake? Or that your sisters son is in love with my apprentice? (Oh come on, Im not the only one who noticed.)

Why is the world so complicated?
Cant we just pick a side?

Ill beg for you to take me back if it makes you happy. Ill leave my Clan, join ThunderClan, join RiverClan, if it means we can be together. Ill give up everything! Nightcloud, Breezepaw, Heatherpaw, Onestar, Ashfoot, and leave, if it means I can be with you and feel your pelt brush against mine as you whisper my name in my ear, and I lick your shoulder and watch over our kits with silent, but happy, eyes.

If you can tell
How I feel
Can you say something?
Cause I dont know what to say
If you can tell
How I feel
Can you say something?
Cause I dont know how

Please Leafpool! Ill give you anything you want, just take me back. Lick me, push me into the lake, knock me off the tree-bridge, talk to me at the Gathering, anything that will bring you back to me!

If you can tell
How I feel
Can you say something?
Cause I dont know what to say
If you can tell
How I fell
Can you say something
Cause I dont know how
To talk to you.

Or maybe youll at least understand something that I dont.

Why do I love you Leafpool?

"Wait... what?" I murmured, looking up to the new kid. He was very... quiet. But I thought he said something to me.
"Who are you?" he asked again. I looked at him skeptically. My whole class had introduced themselves to him this morning.
"Felicia Markings." Pursing my lips and rolling my eyes, I sighed and continued to work on my Algebra homework. It was the end of the day and it was the hour we got to study or work on homework.
"I don't think so," he whispered, tapping his finger on something he wrote on a piece of paper.
"Maria Geoffie," I whispered, and everything came back.

My feet slapped against the dirt road as I ran away from someone, or thing. My throat burning as I coughed harshly.
"Maria, get back here!" shouted a shrill voice. I turned my head to the old woman who was calling me.
"Yes, ma'am," I whispered. My throat was dry and my head hurt terribly as I heard the shrill call again.
"Maria, I cannot believe you tried to run away again," she shouted, grabbing me by the shoulder and roughly dragging me to a horse-drawn carriage. Pulling me into it, she shouted to the horseman and shook me roughly and said, "Maria, I cannot believe this; how long will it take for you to understand?"
"B-but I...," I started, but everything started to fade to black.

My hands gripped the sides of the desk. In that vision I was there for... a couple hours. It was mostly running, but... I was physically only sitting there a few seconds.
The boy stared at me, smiling evilly for a few seconds. "Joseph Geoffie. I'm glad you're back," he whispered, running his fingers through my hair.

My friends crowded around me, staring enviously at my ring.
"Oh, Maria, I knew it would happen soon!" cried my friend, hugging me tight and laughing with me.
"I didn't. That's for sure!" I laughed, hugging Katherine back and staring at the diamond ring wondrously. How a man could've gotten his hand onto a diamond was beyond me. But I was with him when he received the money to buy it... And when he bought it. Like yesterday. Though it was many months ago when he told me I was, 'the one.'
"It's Joseph, right? Oh, he's such a handsome man! I envy you!" my friend Josephine laughed, looking at my ring.
I smiled quietly and said, "I know... I can't believe it was me..."

"Who are you?" I gasped, staring at him.
"The person that is supposed to be with you," he laughed. "Think of it as a gift."
"A gift?" I asked, laughing harshly.
"I guess more so... a curse," Joseph (or Jake) said to me. "But don't worry, Maria. Everything is going to go back to normal now."
"No. I'm Felicia Markings. I'm dating Max, and I live with my parents and three brothers. I. Don't. Know. You," I gasped.
"Hm... He said this would happen," muttered Jake.
"Who? Who said what? Listen, whoever you are, I'm Felicia. I don't have to listen to your gibberish... Crazy," I hissed through clenched teeth. I slapped his hand down and stood abruptly, picking my bag up with me. Taking my Algebra homework, I walked over to Max and sighed. Sending Jake a glare, I let Max hug me as I tried to forget everything.

If only it was as easy as saying that.

VS: Leafpool and Feathertail

Who was the best former mate for Crowfeather: Leafpool or Feathertail? Though Leafpool was the most current mate despite Nightcloud, Feathertail mayve always been the one destined to be with Crowfeather. If you either agree or dont agree about the winner of his heart, you can send me a note about VS in the fan mail!

1. Position.

Leafpool: Medicine Cat

Feathertail: Warrior

Medicine cat beats warrior any day. Point for Leafpool!

2. Appearance.

Leafpool: Light brown tabby she-cat with amber eyes and white paws.

Feathertail: Light gray she-cat with blue eyes.

As beautiful as both cats are, I must admit, the combination of silver fur and blue eyes on Feathertail is stunning. First point for Feathertail!

3. Mate.

Leafpool: Crowfeather

Feathertail: Crowfeather

Cmon, can we really give anybody points for this one?

4. Accomplishments.

Leafpool: Discovered Moonpool, saved many cats lives.

Feathertail: Saved the Tribe of Rushing Water, chosen cat for The Great Journey.

This is the toughest one to judge because both have major accomplishments that are about equal. Both saved many lives (despite Feathertail dying in the process), so Im going to say that Leafpool saving lives and Feathertail saving lives are the same. That still leaves Feathertail being a chosen cat and Leafpool discovering Moonpool. So I say that discovering Moonpool is more important. Thats where the cats can speak to StarClan and receive extremely important information. Sorry Feathertail! Leafpool snatched another point!

Final Scores:

Leafpool = 2

Feathertail = 1

Leafpool has won the true title! Congratulations!

Thanks for reading this issues VS! PLEASE send fan mail on the outcome on whether you agree or disagree!

You always try to control me. Most are successful, but some have failed. I feed upon what you require and devour anything you give me. My color depends on my strength and what I am fed. I am used to make many things, but I can also destroy many things. I bring the end but leave the beginning in my wake. What am I?
