Iceheart

**Iceheart** is a pretty, long-furred silver and white tabby she-cat with blue eyes and a long scar from her shoulder to her stomach.

## History

Icekit is born to Waspberry and Lightningtalon alongside her sister, Frostkit. They bond immensely with Wildheart's kits, thinking they are superior because they are a tad older.
Icepaw is apprenticed alongside her sister to Cinderfall. They do well in their apprenticeships, thriving together. Icepaw is among the WindClan cats who are forced to seek shelter in RiverClan when a fire destroys their camp. Uncomfortable alongside all the big RiverClan warriors, she sticks with Frostpaw.
When the fire is over and the cats are allowed to go back to their camp, Icepaw and Hawkpaw are ordered to get moss. The nearest moss patch is near the ThunderClan border, so when the two travel there, they see Rootstar across the border, doing something odd. Icepaw and Hawkpaw decide to investigate, but they end up crossing the border, and are confronted by Sunfire and Honeyfeather.
Sunfire and Honeyfeather take them back to their camp and shelter them in the apprentices' den during the night. Icepaw and Hawkpaw are frightened of what will happen when Scorchstar eventually finds out that they were taken by ThunderClan. The next day, Scorchstar and Russetstripe travel to the ThunderClan camp to retrieve Icepaw and Hawkpaw. Both of them are furious, and they reprimand the two apprentices harshly.
She and Frostpaw chase off a dog and send it drowning. This leads them to gain their warrior names, Iceheart and Frostpetal. They sit vigil together as they realize they are now warriors.
When rogues attack RiverClan's camp, Iceheart is among the warriors who send a rescue patrol. She fights bravely even though the rogues are cruel and merciless in their attack. She sees Redpaw who is gravely injured, and brings him back to camp so he can be treated.
When Scorchstar and several of his senior warriors rescue Skyheart, they bring Nick and Hotaru into camp. Iceheart befriends Hotaru quickly.
Scorchstar sends Harewhisker to find Runningflame to put Russetstripe's relationship with him to an end, and Harewhisker sets off into the moorland at night with a patrol. However, Harewhisker and his patrol are ambushed by a dark foe, who shoves a substance in Harewhisker's mouth that makes him unconscious. Heathercloud brings Harewhisker back, but the dark foe attacks WindClan's camp, reigning terror on every warrior. The cat attacking them is stronger than any other warrior and does not care about who he's attacking. Hotaru realizes that it is his brother who is attacking the camp, and notices how he is injuring the warriors. He begs for his brother to stop, but his brother only looks at him callously and runs in for the kill. Iceheart deflects the blow, but he is too strong and powerful for Iceheart to keep fighting without being killed. To save Hotaru, Iceheart drags him away from camp and the two run away into the moorland as rain pours onto the camp, making Hotaru's brother retreat.
They hide out for days, unsure if they want to return to the Clans. Scorchstar tasks Russetstripe and Cinderfall to find them. Runningflame joins them on the search patrol, and together they track down Iceheart and Hotaru. However, they are trapped by rogues before they can find them. Runningflame attacks the leader of the rogues, Blade, but is pinned to the ground. Hotaru uses his soul of language to kill Blade by ordering him to die. Russetstripe and Runningflame are able to convince Iceheart to come back to the Clans.
Hotaru tells Iceheart that he won't be going back, and uses his soul of language to order Iceheart to forget about him. But the soul of language is not working on Iceheart, which surprises Hotaru. Runningflame tells him it is because that is not what Hotaru really wants. Iceheart convinces him to come back with him, and the two follow the patrol back to WindClan.
When they come back, Scorchstar asks to speak to them. He scolds the both of them for running away and reprimands Hotaru for taking Iceheart. Iceheart tries to tell Scorchstar that it was her fault, as she was the one who took Hotaru with her. Scorchstar turns on her and asks her if she realizes how much pain she put her Clan through, her sister and mother. Iceheart continues to defend Hotaru, saying that it wasn't Hotaru's fault. Scorchstar dismisses them after hearing their case.
Depressed, Iceheart and Hotaru do not have much to do, as they are treated as outcasts. Waspberry takes the two of them out and tells them that they have to straighten up, to serve their Clan, or else they will never be able to prove themselves as true warriors. Iceheart understands, and promises that she will do better.
The relationship between Iceheart and Lightningtalon gets even more strained, as Lightningtalon is often very stern with her. When Gorseflight makes a surprise appearance in Clan territory, Iceheart hears the story and suggests they should think of this from both perspectives, saying that it was very possible Gorseflight was hurting.
A fight between ThunderClan and WindClan ensues due to the death of Ravenfeather. Scorchstar trusts Iceheart and Wildheart to stay behind to defend camp. Wildheart is kidnapped by Gorseflight, and shortly after, Iceheart follows the scent trail. She spots Wildheart entrapped in Gorseflight's camp, and when she tries to rescue her, Gorseflight takes her prisoner. Imprisoned by Gorseflight, Iceheart tries to talk to him, to explain to him that killing Scorchstar is not the way to achieve his revenge. Gorseflight seems to be listening to her for a bit, until he hears that Scorchstar has arrived. Gorseflight is about to attack before Iceheart pleads for him to stand down, that she does not want to see him get hurt. Gorseflight snarls at her that he is still a demon and rushes to attack Scorchstar. Hotaru and Redmoon free her and Wildheart. Scorchstar attacks Gorseflight and wins, but allows him to live as punishment. At the end of the battle, Iceheart walks over to Gorseflight and tells him that his friends will be spared. Gorseflight murmurs that he thought he felt nothing until he heard that his friends were spared, which gave him relief. Iceheart says that she is sure they would not have wanted him to die. Gorseflight looks up at her and thanks her, saying that she had brought him both joy and pain. He tells her that she is far radiant, and that she is not to see him again. Gorseflight departs, and Iceheart can only watch him, hoping that there is some cat out there who can heal his pain, as she knows he is not truly evil.
She is given Turtlepaw as an apprentice.

## Quotes

"*No one in the entire world is perfect, nor have they ever been. You and Hotaru are still untried in many ways. All the more reason for you two to hang on to one another and help each other grow, I think.*"
—Sedgefall to Iceheart and Hotaru

"*But... in the Clans... cats fight to protect the things that mean the most to them.*"
—Iceheart

**Scorchstar**: "*You fought without claws or anger. You used... kindness.*"

**Iceheart**: "*...I guess that was the only way to get through to [Gorseflight]. I don't think fighting someone who wasn't afraid to die was the best way to go about it.*"

—Scorchstar and Iceheart

**Iceheart**: "*Hotaru... did you want to go back to WindClan?*"

**Hotaru**: "*...I can't. I told you. Brother will come after me until I'm dead. I... have to run away. You can go back, though.*"

**Iceheart**: "*I can't do that and you know that.*"

**Hotaru**: "*What...?*"
**Iceheart**: "*Look. I understand why you're thinking that I'm mouse-brained for this. But... they'll be okay. Waspberry has Frostpetal and Frostpetal has her. And... it's not like my father notices. They have each other. But you...? You'd be traveling alone. And I can't have that. You... need someone with you. And I want to be that cat.*"

"*We must fight in order to bring change to this cruel world.*"
