windkit dies

"—Windkit!" Mosspelt called. He whined, the cold dragging his energy away from him.

"What's wrong with him?" his sister said. "He's so quiet. Like Patchkit."

Patchkit died last night. Mosspelt had slept around them, with the WindClan kits and queen against them, but Patchkit's body had been still and cold in the morning. Mosspelt had called out, wailed for the lack of a river, but after barely moments, Windkit had found himself scooped up in her jaws.

"He's fine," Mosspelt said, running her tongue along his back. She purred, and Windkit purred back, his eyes feeling heavy.

Willowkit pressed her nose to his shoulder. "Don't die," she whispered. "I don't want to be alone."

But Windkit felt like his eyes were being held shut, and his mother's purr quieted. If this was dying, it wasn't the worst thing.

I may have missed it, but why did Pinepaw move to Windclan?

pinespark starts a civil war and dies in the process. poplarcloud is seriously injured and can't safely treat patients, so riverclan force evolves pinepaw to pineshore and sends him to windclan.

shadowclan — year four — leafbare

sorry i just stopped to think about how Much we've gone through. all of us. this is a collaborative effort. good job, reading all of this. or even just this post. i'm proud of you.

anyway.

tangleburr has another litter, with a singular kit, snowkit. applepaw is apprenticed to brownthorn.

and then.

okayy so shadowclan has a tree fall in their camp. it kills ashpelt and heartkit, and injures sequoiaice, causing head trauma and brain injury. sequoiaice struggles with gross motor control, so he retires.

afterwards, talonsun is made a warrior.

ah, windclan does a civil war.

why? how? welll basically pinespark instigates it. yeah the fucking seer. he dies in the process though so shrug.

ashfoot, freckledkit, and doespring die in the battle. deadstar is distraught.

poplarcloud also has a head injury and signficant memory loss, so pinepaw (of riverclan) comes to windclan as pineshore, and serves as their primary seer. it's...tense.

and last but certainly not least, indigobird has two kits: patchkit (cream she-cat with dark flecks and a white undercoat) and orangekit (red, white, and cream she-cat with a white undercoat and faint stripes)

*rubs hands together*

mousefur's kits die before the journey. when greystripe is captured, firestar appoints her as acting deputy. she will eventually be made deputy.

squirrelflight!! becomes a warrior. so proud of her <3

birchpaw is apprenticed to ashfur and hollypaw to firestar. why? idk maybe he sees something in her.

sugarice is pregnant on the journey and has six kits with rainwhisker (six!!) before they've even found a new camp. they are echokit (smokey tom), pinyonkit (large, smokey brown and white she-cat), virgakit (black, white, and grey tom), dewkit (black and grey she-cat), pinekit (black, white, and grey tom), and arnicakit (short, white tom with pale golden patches)

riverclan — year four — leafbare

windkit and patchkit both die on the journey. they freeze from the snow before the tribe finds them. willowkit is the only kit to live.

when they've arrived at the lake, dawnflower has her litter, pebblekit, minnowkit, and tumblekit.

and for reasons related to windclan, pinepaw receives his full name ridiculously early (pineshore), and moves to windclan.
