## History

Hawkkit is born to Wildheart and Scorchstar alongside her siblings, Redkit and Mallowkit. Hawkkit is quite mischievious, often pulling pranks with her brother, Redkit, or another kit in the nursery by the name of Frostkit. This eventually gets her in trouble, when she ends up following her father with Scorchstar to the RiverClan border with Frostkit. The two kits witness a slight skirmish, which ends up in Scorchstar being clawed by a RiverClan cat, and Dapplestar seeing his daughter's behavior. Dapplestar mocks Scorchstar as he takes Hawkkit and Frostkit away. Hawkkit and Frostkit are threatened with a delayed apprentice ceremony.
Sunleaf, Hawkkit's grandmother who she was quite close to, passes away. Hawkkit is overwhelmed with grief and snaps upon anyone who comes across her in a way to leash her anger and mourning. Brambledusk, a WindClan warrior, helps Hawkkit alleviate her grief by having her "speak" to Sunleaf. He tells Hawkkit that Sunleaf will always be there for her, even if she cannot see her. Hawkkit begins to calm down and forms a bond with Brambledusk.
As a kit, Hawkkit is already thinking about being the next Clan leader, which worries Scorchstar. She becomes an apprentice with the name of Hawkpaw, and is given to Blackdove to train. Her brother, Redpaw, is given to Heathercloud, and the two siblings have a terse relationship as apprentices. Redpaw often shows the victor in bouts of strength and fighting, frustrating Hawkpaw to no end. She bites him one day, drawing blood, and Scorchstar is furious. He chastises Hawkpaw and orders her to apologize to Redpaw. Hawkpaw does, and Redpaw accepts, acknowledging his faults as well. Shortly after, Hawkpaw crosses the border to ThunderClan with Icepaw and is taken by Brookfeather to their camp. She bonds with Foxpaw, a ThunderClan apprentice, and the ThunderClan warrior Sunfire is slightly amused by her antics. Brambledusk comes to retrieve them and tells Hawkpaw to let her father know how his behavior affects her. She does, and father and daughter make up.
A fire sweeps through WindClan territory and Hawkpaw is forced to shelter in RiverClan with the rest of her Clan. She is mocked by the older warriors and joins the apprentices to hunt with Rippleheart and Blackdove, but comes back bringing nothing, much to Scorchstar's anger. When they return to camp, Hawkpaw continues her training with Blackdove.
While out hunting, Hawkpaw is nearly constricted by a massive snake. Redpaw jumps in time to save her, but the python turns on Redpaw shortly after. Together, the two siblings work together to kill the snake. Because of this, they receive their warrior names, Hawkfire and Redmoon. Hawkfire is happy when her sister, Mallowkit, finally becomes an apprentice by the name of Mallowpaw.
While on patrol, Hawkfire hears an eerie voice luring her towards ThunderClan land. The voice tells her that ThunderClan was planning to invade WindClan, to overtake their territory, and tells her that he does not want to see another innocent group of cats massacred. Hawkfire immediately reports this to her father, who takes it seriously. Hawkfire participates in the battle against ThunderClan, where she is forced to fight an old friend of hers, Foxdapple. She sees her father lose a life and stays with him until he comes to. She helps him get back to camp when they receive the news that Wildheart is kidnapped. She joins Redmoon and Scorchstar as they confront Gorseflight, Wildheart's kidnapper. Scorchstar attacks Gorseflight while Hawkfire and Redmoon rescue Wildheart.
Hawkfire and Redmoon are severely chastised by their father when they decide to travel to ShadowClan territory to confront Nightfire. Hawkfire joins her father in the fight against Peartuft, and is present at the island when Peartuft poisons the foliage. Mintpaw is killed, and Hawkfire watches her father lose a life.
Iceheart confesses to Hawkfire that she is expecting kits, and Hotaru is missing. Hawkfire decides to travel to find Hotaru, and is able to recruit Redmoon and Frostpetal. Redmoon knocks out Harewhisker and the group of cats travel across the moor and towards the Twolegplace. They meet a group led by Aeolus and shelter with them for the night, and Hawkfire bonds with Aeolus. On their way through the Twolegplace, Hawkfire is kidnapped by a Twoleg and is taken to the Cutter. Redmoon, Iceheart, and Frostpetal rescue Hawkfire and continue their journey into the mountains, where they meet up with Brambledusk and Lightningtalon. They travel to the Iga village and confront Momochi. Hawkfire holds off Saizo, Hotaru's brother, and mourns for Lightningtalon when he is killed.
Hawkfire and the others return to WindClan with Iceheart's kits, and they are shocked to see the state WindClan is in. Hawkfire fights RiverClan fiercely, and when Dapplestar sets their territory ablaze, Hawkfire tries to keep Mallowleaf safe as her sister desperately attempts to save plants she was cultivating. The fire takes Mallowleaf, and the silver she-cat perishes in the flames. Hawkfire watches, frozen with terror until Scorchstar comes to her rescue and brings her to shelter. Hawkfire is traumatized by her sister's death and clashes with her father, thinking that he blames her for it.
Hawkfire joins the fight against Shellfall and his supporters. She drives away the RiverClan apprentice, Icepaw, when she takes a life from her father, and stays with Scorchstar until he comes to. Scorchstar and Shimmerwing win the battle, and they travel back to camp. Hawkfire bids farewell to Russetstripe when she leaves WindClan. She helps Scorchstar defeats Peartuft and develops a friendship with the ThunderClan deputy, Icefrost.
Scorchstar gives Iceheart's son, Rainpaw, to Hawkfire as an apprentice. She trains him diligently and teaches him that peace within the Clans is a neccessity. After Harewhisker passes away, Hawkfire desires to become deputy, and is disappointed when Scorchstar picks Redmoon instead. Redmoon declines the offer and requests that Hawkfire be appointed instead. Startled, Scorchstar agrees and appoints Hawkfire as deputy. Immediately, father and son clash, with Hawkfire having differing opinions than her father.
A fox attacks WindClan and Scorchstar gathers help from the other three Clans to drive it away. Russetstripe is one of these cats, and she helps Scorchstar and Hawkfire see their differences to work together as deputy and leader. During the fight against the fox, Scorchstar is wounded severely and lies in the medicine den, Wildheart with him, having grown ill before. Her parents pass away at the same time, with Redmoon and Hawkfire watching. Scorchstar tells Hawkfire he loves her, and bids her farewell one last time before he dies.
Devastated over her father's passing, Hawkfire is at a loss. Nightstar and Icestar try to comfort her, and Shimmerstar decides to teach Hawkfire how to be a good leader. Hawkfire goes and gets her lives at the Moonpool, being renamed Hawkstar, and meets Shimmerstar twice a moon to learn under the tawny she-cat on how to lead. She appoints her brother, Redmoon, as her deputy.
Hawkstar receives a dream for her father, who tells her that she needs to find new cats to join WindClan, since WindClan is so small and leaf-bare is coming. Hawkstar agrees and takes Iceheart and Rainpaw with her on her journey, leaving Redmoon in charge of camp.
