This is an AU I've been thinking about revising for ages. Mostly because I have all these really shitty, really old fan characters that I want to put a use to somehow or another. And I know that the universe has it's own established timeline concerning leaders up to Firestar's point, but I know for a fact that my friend used to write her own AU stories with her characters that were a part of Riverclan, so I figured "why the hell not?"
I've now come to the general conclusion that the cats who used to belong to "HawkClan" are now WindClan cats, and the cats who used to belong to "BrookClan" are now RiverClan cats. You gotta wonder what I was thinking when I made those up... xD
(I also want to see if I can throw my first Warriors role-play OC, Dustypaw/Dustywind, in somehow
)
A cat named Nightshade is the central character of the two stories I've written. In the beginning of the first story, she is a brand new warrior. However, as time passes, a camp of badgers is moving closer to WindClan territory, and they attack suddenly one night. Nightshade is ordered to go help and try to fight them off...only for the badger to grab hold of Nightshade at the wrong angle and amputate one of her forepaws. She is brought back to camp and eventually heals, with her name changed to Threefoot as well. She learns to walk and hunt with only three paws, and eventually ends up mating with another cat named Snowstorm (though I may change this because it's hitting me now how illogical it would be for a black cat and a white cat to not have gray children). They have three kits together at the end of the first story: twins Sparrowkit (later Sparrowheart) and Pantherkit (later Panthertail), and their little sister Moonkit (who dies in the second story).
In the second story, Threefoot and her brother Thundersplash go to the monthly Gathering with their leader, Icestar. Threefoot is concerned because their cousin living in RiverClan (whose name I'm not even going to mention here because it's so stupid) wants Threefoot's firstborn kits. Threefoot fails to let him know by any means, and he finds out at the Gathering. He and Snowstorm fight briefly, which angers StarClan and causes the Gathering to be broken up sooner than later. Threefoot explains her cousin's pride game and recounts when the two first met. The next day, her cousin and a few other Warriors from RiverClan invade WindClan territory. Her cousin informs them of his nefarious deeds; how their current leader (Cometstar) is dying, how the deputy Lioneyes will take over, and how he plans to murder Lioneyes and grab control of power. Eventually, her cousin tries to make off with the kits and ends up drowning, and in a compromise, Threefoot's son is taken into RiverClan's care.
I had planned to shift the focus from Threefoot to her daughter (Pantherpaw at this point), and show how her own experiences as an apprentice were progressing from there on out. Ideas included friendships with other apprentices from other clans, and attempts to sneak over to RiverClan on patrol time to visit Sparrowpaw. I also kind of want her to have a relationship with Lionstar, the young leader of RiverClan, but I'm not entirely sure >w>
