Hollowspring

Hollowspring is a black tom.
Hollowspring is a ShadowClan warrior under Tigerstar's leadership in the lake territories. He was born in ShadowClan as Hollowkit to Berryheart and Sparrowtail alongside his littermates, Spirekit and Sunkit, while journeying back to ShadowClan. During their travels, Hollowkit was snatched by an owl, and though he was saved by Tigerheart, it resulted in the tabby tom's death. He joined ShadowClan with his family after Tigerheart's resurrection, and he was later apprenticed as Hollowpaw to Grassheart. Afterwards, he became a warrior as Hollowspring. When Berryheart was exiled from ShadowClan, he decided to be exiled with her alongside his mother. They were joined by Hollowspring's father, Sparrowtail. He later settled in RiverClan with his mother when she was appointed as Splashtail's new deputy. After Splashtail's defeat and Berryheart's death, Hollowspring and Sparrowtail returned to ShadowClan.

===In the A Vision of Shadows arc===
====River of Fire====
:Hollowkit is with his parents and littermates when Violetshine greets Berryheart, she notices Berryheart's kits, and their mother introduces them to Violetshine, adding that one of them may be her apprentice, which causes the littermates to fight over who receives her as a mentor.
:Berryheart explains that while going back to ShadowClan, an owl came and attempted to take Hollowkit, and Tigerheart managed to free Hollowkit but resulted in the owl dropping Tigerheart, which caused the dark tabby to suffer massive internal injuries. Violetshine then notices that Hollowkit has multiple clumps of fur missing and a healing scratch on his shoulder. Berryheart continues, saying that despite their attempts to get him to Puddleshine, Tigerheart succumbed to his injuries. Hollowkit and his littermates are present when Tigerheart is resurrected as Tigerstar and follows his family to the now revived ShadowClan.
====The Raging Storm====
:While Alderheart is in ShadowClan's camp treating Puddleshine, he hears Berryheart hurrying toward him. She says that Hollowkit has a cough and is worried for his life. Alderheart examines him and tells the queen it is not serious. He gives Berryheart some tansy for the kit and advises her to keep him away from his siblings. The queen tells him Sunkit and Spirekit are sleeping with Yarrowleaf's kits, and Alderheart tells Berryheart that is fine.

====Lost Stars====
:Hollowpaw has earned his warrior name of Hollowspring.
====Darkness Within====
:Shadowsight watches Hollowspring, Lightleap, and Gullswoop rip up old bedding from the warriors' den, and when he pads back into camp, Hollowspring appears irritated that Shadowsight is going hunting with them. He scents rabbit, and he and Blazefire work together to catch the rabbit, where Hollowspring halts as Blazefire makes the killing bite, the patrol is satisfied with their catch. He spots a flock of four sparrows, and when Shadowsight yelps, scaring away the sparrows, Hollowspring angrily glares at the medicine cat, calling him a mouse-brain. Though some are amused over the incident, Hollowspring still glares at Shadowsight, saying it is hard to criticize one of Tigerstar's kin. He turns away, ending the conversation with wanting to catch more for the Clan, so they do not go hungry. Due to this, Shadowsight thinks that every cat in ShadowClan resents him for killing Bramblestar.
===In the A Starless Clan arc===
====River====
:Hollowspring goes on a dawn patrol with Hopwhisker and his sister, Sunbeam. While on patrol, he and Hopwhisker discuss the current peace between the Clans. Hollowspring advocates that there will always be a need to patrol borders and practice battle training, and snarks at his sister when her somber response ruins the mood. At the RiverClan border at the greenleaf Twolegplace, they discover Twoleg garbage everywhere, and Hollowspring recoils from the stench. Hopwhisker attempts to search the mess for prey, but ends up injuring her paw. Sunbeam suggests they should take Hopwhisker to Mothwing in RiverClan since they happen to be closer, and calls over Lizardtail and Nightsky for help. Hollowspring and Sunbeam help Hopwhisker over to RiverClan's territory, though he and Sunbeam are confused when Nightsky leaves them outside of their camp to fetch Mothwing. Mothwing and her apprentice Frostpaw arrive to help Hopwhisker, and Hollowspring and Sunbeam help escort Hopwhisker back home. Later, he and Flaxfoot catch some pigeons in the pine branches until Flaxfoot loses his pigeon in a bramble thicket. Hollowspring gently teases his Clanmate for being clumsy.
====Sky====
:When Sunbeam recalls her visit to RiverClan, she notes that she was with Hollowspring.
====Thunder====
:Hollowspring attends the Gathering when Berryheart announces she has the support of ShadowClan to oust Tigerstar from leadership. When Sunbeam sees him, she feels remorse that it has been so long since she has spoken with her brother. After Berryheart is exiled by Tigerstar, she asks if Spireclaw and Hollowspring will join her and Sparrowtail as rogues. While Spireclaw stays with Fringewhisker, Hollowspring dips his head and follows his mother and father, much to Sunbeam's shock.

====Tigerheart's Shadow====
:Hollowkit is born to Berryheart and Sparrowtail, along with his siblings, Sunkit and Spirekit. The young tom, Spirekit, and Sunkit are now one moon old. The kits have tasted their first prey and are now exploring around. Despite their growth, Hollowkit and his siblings still suckle from their mother. Sometime after, Hollowkit and his brother, Spirekit, stalk Lightkit and Pouncekit, with Tigerheart wondering if the kits are old enough to travel yet. The kits tussle, and Hollowkit pounces at Pouncekit. The tom-kit rears and hooks his tiny claws into the gray kit's shoulder, so she flops down dramatically with a wail. Hollowkit stands triumphantly on Pouncekit's flank. Tigerheart drops a mouse, and the kits rush over.
:Lightkit sniffs at the prey, and Hollowkit and Spirekit hurry over. Spirekit complains, and his brother wrinkles his nose. At dusk, the tom-kit is seen exploring beyond the camp wall with Sunkit, and Dovewing sees the kits as they sniff at some roots. An owl swoops overhead the distracted kits, and Tigerheart orders them to hide. Before he can move, the owl dives for Hollowkit, its talons reaching out to grab him. Dovewing and Tigerheart manage to fight the owl off, but Tigerheart is seriously wounded. As his mate screeches with Berryheart, the kits mewl in terror. When Tigerheart dies and joins StarClan, he sees Hollowkit with his brother and sister, along with his own kits, being shielded by Berryheart, Cloverfoot, and Cinnamon from his corpse, as it is being carried by Sparrowtail and Rippletail. While his companion, Cinnamon, checks his legs, Hollowkit, and his siblings hide behind their mother. Berryheart thanks Tigerheart for saving Hollowkit, and he remembers how light-weighted the tom was as he saved him. He and the other cats return to ShadowClan and are accepted with joy.
====Squirrelflight's Hope====
:He and his littermates are now apprentices, and his mentor is Grassheart.
===In the Novellas===
====Tawnypelt's Clan====
:He is mentioned by his mother Berryheart to Dovewing, asking if she thinks Hollowkit is coming down with a cold. Dovewing dismisses it and says he is fine. This irritates Tawnypelt, who wonders if Dovewing even cares if a kit is sick. He is later seen by Tawnypelt, playing with the other kits while Berryheart and Cloverfoot watch over them, having recovered from whatever illness Berryheart thought he may have.
