draw evil doomed mothpool please please please please please
I actually got so excited when I saw this request cause it got me thinking, what would evil MothPool look like? What would motivate them to turn against the clans, and how would would they work together to achieve what they want?
Well, Mothwing is already skeptical of Starclan. She acknowledges to an extent that yes, Starclan does exist, but she also doesn’t think that they should be dictating how the living go about things. She doesn’t believe them to be any wiser than her living peers, and thus, she’s never spoken to a Starclan cat, and had no plans to.
That was, until, she heard of Leafpool’s passing. Leafpool, the cat who’d accepted her unconditionally, who had been her comfort for so many moons, who made her feel normal when other cats cast her out for her beliefs. In spite of herself, she tries to contact Leafpool’s spirit, just to say goodbye, just to thank her for her kindness. And to her surprise, she succeeds - but something’s wrong.
Mothwing had never seen a Starclan cat up close, but she was sure that this wasn’t right. Leafpool looked dull, her eyes were dark. She’d heard her clanmmates describe Starclan cats as glittering, sometimes glowing with the stars in their pelts. This couldn’t be her Leafpool…
Leafpool was quick to notice Mothwing’s confusion, and explained to her that Starclan had not allowed her to join because she’d broken the code. She told her about the trial she and Squirrelflight went through, and how despite Starclan’s guidance, they were found guilty. Squirrelflight had returned to the living, but Leafpool decided that she would accept her fate, and make something of it.
Mothwing felt as though her head was spinning. Starclan was already confusing enough, and now this? Leafpool had been nothing but loyal to them! How could they banish her? Frustration bubbled in her chest. Leafpool wrapped herself around Mothwing. She was cold.
After soothing her for a moment, Leafpool asked if Mothwing would help her. Mothwing hesitated. Did Leafpool want revenge? Leafpool, sensing her unease, assured her that all she wanted to do was “make things right”. She wanted to make sure no other cat would suffer an unjust fate. Mothwing agreed. She trusted Leafpool over Starclan, now more than ever.
Leafpool devised a plan. She would cut off Starclan from the living cats, so that they could never interfere with them again. No more manipulation for their own benefit. She had Mothwing gather deathberries. They were going to kill the MoonPool.
As much as Mothwing wanted justice for Leafpool, a part of her felt that it was wrong. But Leafpool reminded her of Starclan’s cruelties; how Leafpool lost her kits, her place as a medicine cat, her place in Starclan. How Mothwing had been mistreated her whole life for simply having different beliefs. How if it weren’t for Starclan, they could’ve had a life together.
So Mothwing did it. She poisoned the MoonPool. It was no longer blue and glittery with starlight, but muddy and red. It could easily be mistaken for blood. But this was just the beginning…
