**Mint** is the main character of FireClan's Journey. She is a kind, spunky she-cat, but that doesn't mean love and conflicts don't hold her back.

## **Life**

### Kithood

Mint was born with her siblings, Hazelnut and Thistle. Mint was a gray she-cat, easily resembling her father, Nightshadespirt. Mint's father loved her, and always told her how she, "had her mother's beautiful green eyes." But one night, everything changed. *He* changed. He told Mint's mother how he must live out the destiny his mother (Lunarspirit) had instilled into him and that he had to go back to MapleClan, become leader, and mate with his "true love" Bluebellwish. Mint's mother was a mess. He went to the forest, and he ruled MapleClan, taking down the other clans. One day, Mint's mother went into the forest to find him, and she began to kill him. Bluebellwish came out of the darkness, she had a vision in her sleep of what she had to do. They easily killed him, and, for good measure, Bluebellwish clawed his face and left a large scar across it. When Mint became 6 moons old, she got a silver collar with her name on it. Mint began to miss her father more every day. Her memory of him was slowly fading. She would ask her mother questions, yet she wouldn't answer. Hazelnut went and found a mate, Huckleberry. Thistle went and joined MarshClan, and became Thistlethicket. He went with MarshClan when the Clans left. Mint began to wander and meet new cats. She met a golden she-cat named Pineapple, a pale brown she-cat named Frappuccino, a handsome gray tom named Curio, a yellow heterochromatic she-cat named Wild Spark, and a black and white she-cat named Lightningtail, who was formerly Bluebell's best friend. Lighiningtail also introduced her to Hollypelt and Ibisdusk. She was happy, becoming a rouge, leaving her kittypet life behind.

### Rouge

Mint was a early Scourge like-character. She formed a small rouge group with Ibisdusk, Hollypelt, Lightningtail, Grayfeather, Wild Spark, and Jay Watcher called Lunar. Moon, her non-related aunt, joined too, bringing her two children, Purple and Blue. Pineapple came to join as well, bringing pals from all over, Pear, Berry, Cookie, Frost, Cream, and Penny. A young she-cat that was exiled from her own group, as her parents died. She had to leave her best friends Kat and Caramel. A odd rouge joined the group soon, his name was Milk Dud, and almost instantly he mated with Frappi. The whole thing was going great, all of the cats were starting their warrior-esc training, Pear earing his new name, Pearspring, really soon after. Milky was the only one that died, falling off of a tall building. But soon, Frappi went missing. Mint tried to go after her scent, but Ibisdusk made her come back, thinking Frappi was overcome with grief for Milk Dud. A few nights later, two-legs came and captured all the cats, expect Ibisdusk, who ran towards the two-leg homes, and Hollypelt, who ran towards the forest. Little did Mint know at the time, she was going to change. More than anything in her life.

### Lab Cat

Mint was changed at the lab, her pelt being changed to a mint color. She was kept In a cage for a while, watching all her friends being changed. Mint hatched a plan with some of her friends to escape. Pineapple Queen got her friends out, and told them to find territory far away from the city for them. The others took Curio back to his Circus home. But, when the people saw the other cats with Curio and how strange they were, the circus people caught the cats.

### Circus Cat

Mint's role in the circus was to run, jump, warrior things. She was also supposed to be Curio's 'gal. Mint hated that though, but eventually she fell in love with him. Mint escaped, as she knew she must join FireClan,

### Warrior

Mint became a warrior, and became friends with Snowpebble, Shadowsoul, and Bramblethorn. She was involved in a prophecy to destroy the ghost cats and save the old clans. But, instead her friends, plus Curio who was now a warrior, Curiospark, were told by the ghost cats a different prophecy, destroy the warrior code, and allow the ghost cats to take over the other clans. Mint knows when she decides she is a true warrior, she has a name on the line for her, Mintivy. Which will Mint and her friends chose?

#### Flowing Ice from Flames

After training with Moon for moons, she was ready to join FireClan. Once she got there, she was easily accepted by Dawnstar. But not by Hawktalon. He challenged her to a battle, and she won with some effort. Mint wasn't accepted by most cats in her clan, but Applepaw, Leafkit, Snowpaw, and Bramblepaw thought differently. They soon became good friends. Mint was taken to the Moonpool with Dawnstar, Iceheart, Feathersong, and Shadowpaw. Snowpaw and Bramblepaw were chosen by StarClan to go, but Dawnstar said they couldn't. Feathersong took them anyway. Mint got a prophecy from two kits, Specklekit and Shrewkit. But a blue-gray she-cat stepped forward, completing the prophecy for the two kits. When Mint got back to camp, she had a prophetic dream. A she-cat showed her a vision of her friends being killed by a bear. After waking up and having an encounter with Bramblepaw, she went into the woods, longing for some peace. Mint found a cat named Nightshadespirit meeting with two unknown cats, who he called Quietflame and Sweetsnow. They were plotting something. Mint was soon asked in a dream from Nightshadespirit to join him. To kill Snowpaw, and let the bear destroy the Clan. He told her that she was his daughter, and that Dawnstar had been taken over by an evil she-cat named Venom. They came up with a plan for Nightshadespirit to take over Mint's body-posses her- to lure to bear to FireClan camp. Mint began her plan. She then realized that Nightshadespirit said that he could give her anything she wanted, so she didn't need Bramblepaw, she could have Curio. She spilt with Nightshadespirit, and Mint saved Snowpaw. Snowpaw, Bramblepaw, and Mint held back the bear. But somebody needed to give it the final blow. Shadowpaw ran up and killed it. The three of them became warriors. Nightshadespirit came back to the clan, and took everyone under his control to torment Mint, even bringing her circus friends. Mint attacked Nightshadespirit and discovered his weak point, around his heart. He retreated after Lightningtail brought his ex mate, Carrie, to the battlefield. Mint ran away from the clan. She needed to see Curio again. The two came to the clan together, Curio getting a warrior name, Curiospark. Mint, Snowpebble, Bramblethorn, Shadowsoul, and Curiospark became Nightshadespirit's Warriors, and had a mentor paired with each of them. Quietflame and Sweetsnow became part of their little group, too. To end off Mint's part of the story, Snowpebble held a small mating ceremony for Mint and Curiospark, much to Shadowsoul's dismay.

She will hate cats until she gets to know them. She thinks kits are cute, and she loves Curio, but she never wants to have any of her own.

When she is mad though, her voice will go down low and she will yell, scaring anybody in the area around her. She speaks often, loving to share, usually useless, information to her friends, or telling stories.

## **Relationships**

### Curio

Mint met Curio on the streets after she got her collar, and really hated him. he was very annyoing, speaking with hard to understand words. When they were in the lab together, Mint started to grow used to his lexicon, but she thought his brother was nicer. Once poor Blurryface got tested on, his whole personality chaged and Mint began to sorta crush on Curio. She fell in love with the circus cat after she escaped the lab with Kat, Frappi, and Wild Spark and took shelter in the circus, but then quickly becoming a star of the circus with her friends. Curio returned her feelings. When Mint and her friends made the plan to escape the circus and live normal lives, Curio refused to leave behind the circus. Mint and him argued. Eventually, Mint left, leaving Curio in a spiral of anxiety at the circus. Many moons later, Curio was tricked by Nightshadespirit, being told that he could see Mint agian, and become mates with her, but he fell under Nightshadespirit's control. Mint rescued him, and the two were reunited. Mint now despised him, thinking he was selfish for not following her too a new destiny. But slowly, the two reconnected and fell in love again, becoming mates.

### Bramblethorn, Snowpebble, Shadowsoul

#### Bramblethorn

Mint fell in love with Bramblethorn when she first went to FireClan, as if replacing Curio. Bramblethorn, then Bramblepaw, didn't notice, only thinking of Mint as a close friend. Mint accidentally connected noses, a sign of love, one night. Bramblepaw still didn't know that Mint had a crush on him. Later, when Bramblepaw and Snowpebble, then Snowpaw, fell in love, Mint became jealous and hateful, allowing Nightshadespirit to take control of her. She set up a plan to kill Snowpaw, but just in time Mint realized what she was doing and pushed Nightshadespirit away, saving the lives of her clanmates from the bear she had lured to camp. This encounter made Bramblepaw and Snowpaw deeper in love, which didn't bother Mint, as she accepted that Bramblethorn was only going to be her friend. Snowpebble and Bramblethorn later had two litters of kits, and Mint helped out happily, as called by the kits "Auntie Mint".

#### Snowpebble

At first, Mint and Snowpebble became very close friends. Mint appreciated Snowpebble's positivity. But, after learning that Snowpaw and Bramblepaw were in love, she became jealous and hateful. With Nightshadespirit's help, she lured a bear to camp to kill Snowpaw. But Mint became aware of what was happening, and pushed Nightshadespirit out. Mint and Snowpebble became close friends again after this, with Mint even helping her two litters of kits.

#### Shadowsoul

When she first came to FireClan, Mint didn't really interact with the young medicine cat apprentice. But after the bear first struck the camp while Mint was with her friends, Shadowpaw asked if he could help the "cooler apprentices" clean the camp. Mint, Bramblepaw, and Snowpaw allowed him to. Afterward, Mint still didn't really talk to him. Later, Shadowpaw came to comfort Mint with her worries, and confined in her the secret that no cat else knew; he could tell the feelings and emotions of others, making him an excellent medicine cat. Mint then told him a slight bit of her past. The two bonded over this, and Mint began to interact with the shy tom more, accepting him as one of her closest friends. Until, he ran away after Mint told him about her mate, Curio, and how he was going to join the clan for awhile. He couldn't bear the thought of his secret crush with someone else. He eventually came back, knowing that he couldn't have a mate either way. This crush still may effect things in the future, and how it messes with Shadowsoul's head.

### Nightshadespirit

When Mint first met Nightshadespirit, she didn't know what to think, besides the fact that his markings looked eerily similar to her own. She refused his offer for him to help him, and tried to fight the tom, quickly realizing he was half ghost. He then revealed to be her father, which shocked Mint greatly. He then offered the deal to Mint once more, but she refused. He told her that she should think about it. Two days later, Mint accepted, and Nightshadespirit took over her body. He seemed to care much for Mint, offering her some "father-daughter time". When Mint realized her actions, she pushed Nightshadespirit out. He was angered, as she was the only cat he thought he could trust. He vanished, leaving Mint without a father once more, yet thinking about the choices she has made.

### Kat, Frappi, Caramel, Wild Spark, Lightningtail, and Pineapple Queen

#### Kat

Kat and Mint are best friends, meeting in the lab. They had a lot in common, and had a great chemistry.

#### Frappuccino

Mint and Frappi aren't too close. They talk every once in a while, and are only friends because they share the friends of Caramel and Kat.

#### Wild Spark

Mint and Wild Spark are friends, but they always snap at each other.

#### Lightningtail

Lightningtail and Mint met when Mint first got her collar. They got a long very well, always together. Mint was devastated when she found out Lightningtail died kitting. But, Lightningtail's ghost went to the circus with her, still together. Then, after Mint left for FireClan, she found out Lightningtail now resided in the ghost world. Mint realized it was because these cats want the warrior code to change, especially Lightningtail and, her mate, Grayfeather as they ran away from their clans to live free and have their half-clan kits.

#### Pineapple Queen

Mint and Pineapple Queen met when they were both 4 moons old. They were good friends, playing together all the time. Eventually, Pineapple Queen went off to do her own thing, and Mint thinks about her often.
