Super Editions

**Super Editions** in the *Warriors of Elements* series are standalone novels that are longer than books in the main arcs, and focus on one character. They follow a variety of characters and connect to the main timeline.

## **CONCEPT DEVELOPMENT**

Super Editions are much longer than the main books and can be up to 40 chapters long. Each book tells a story from one specific character's point of view. They serve as backstory for many events in the *Warriors of Elements* series, but they are usually not required to be read to understand the main arcs. They can take place anytime from the beginning of the Clans to the modern times.

## **BOOKS**

### ***Froststar's Retaliation***

Frostkit is an AirClan kit born to Violetpetal. After Violetpetal goes down into the tunnels beneath the moor with Frostpaw, the tunnel collapses, and Violetpetal is buried alive while Frostpaw escapes. Frostpaw is driven to seek revenge, and after he becomes a Warrior, he leaves the Clan to find some way to avenge his father's death. However, on his journey, Frostpelt meets Hades, a Kittypet, who he quickly becomes good friends with. Hades, possessed by the Fortune Meadow, persuades Frostpelt not to seek revenge and to return to AirClan, and they part ways, promising never to forget each other. Frostpelt returns to AirClan and is made Deputy, then Leader. He recognizes Souleyes as Hades's son, and has a long leadership. On his deathbed, Froststar appoints Hollyheart as his deputy instead of Shellskip, and is then reunited with Hades in the Fortune Meadow.

### ***Redsight's Secret***

Cinderkit is a FireClan kit born to Briarclaw and Beetlefang. As a kit, she gets severely hurt by a fox who scratches her eyes and permanently loses her sight, getting renamed Redkit because of her reddish blind eyes. Pinewhisker, the Medicine Cat, insists that she should become her Apprentice because of her injuries, but Redkit is stubbornly determined to be a Warrior Apprentice. However, when she does become one, the hardships of fighting as a blind cat paired with her compassion for other cats is too much to bear and she becomes a Medicine Cat. Redpaw falls in love with Sharpthistle, who reciprocates her feelings. After she becomes a full Medicine Cat, Redsight has a vision from StarClan where Orchidflight, an ancient FireClan Medicine Cat, tells her that she should not have kits, because her kits will grow up to cause a lot of suffering for the Clans. Despite Orchidflight's message, Redsight still gets pregnant with Sharpthistle's kits. Sharpstar becomes leader of FireClan, and Redsight gives birth by herself to his kits, which turn out to be a single kit, who she names Deadkit because he should be dead due to how frail he looked and because of his floppy left ear. Sharpstar is very proud of his son. He makes Deadear deputy, and Deadear, hungry for power, rips away all of his father's nine lives at once to become leader. Deadstar then banishes Redsight, falsely accusing her of the deaths of her younger siblings, Robinkit and Sandkit. She wanders onto ForestClan territory, and becomes their Medicine Cat after Goldenspots's death.

### ***Hawkstar's Promise***

Hawkkit is a WaterClan kit born to Mistletail and Stoatbelly. One day, he tries to cross the stepping stones and ends up slipping and permanently dislocating his front right paw. His mother requests that his name be changed to Twistkit, but both his father and Firconestar, the Clan Leader, refuse. While he waits for his injury to heal, Hawkkit is visited by a dead tom named Marshtail. After he becomes an Apprentice, Marshtail convinces Hawkpaw to promise him to put his Clan above all else if he wants to become the most powerful cat in WaterClan, and Hawkpaw agrees and makes the promise. After this, many of his family members die, including Mistletail, one of his kits, Specklekit, and his brother Gooseflutter. Hawkshade overcomes all his loss and becomes Deputy, then Leader of WaterClan. Hawkstar is visited by Marshtail, and he tells Hawkstar that he has taken everything from him. Hawkstar says that he is wrong, and that all his loved ones are waiting for him in StarClan. Hawkstar dies and is reunited with all of the cats he loves, awaiting Fallenstar and his living kits to join him.

### ***Fallenstar's Prophecy***

Fallenkit is a ForestClan kit born to Jupiter and Mousestep. As an Apprentice, her father is killed by Windripple during a battle with AirClan. Fallenpaw is devastated. She and her sister, Acornpaw, become Warriors, and Acornleaf falls in love with Rubblepelt. Fallenrain disapproves of her choice, as Rubblepelt has a violent and aggressive nature. Acornleaf gives birth to Rubblepelt's son, Sleekkit, and is killed on the Thunderpath shortly afterward. Fallenrain raises Sleekkit for her sister. Fallenrain begins to meet with the WaterClan Deputy, Hawkshade, and becomes pregnant with his kits. ForestClan's Deputy, Duckflight, becomes ill and is close to dying. The prime candidates for the next Deputy are Fallenrain and Rubblepelt, and Fallenrain knows that if Rubblepelt becomes Leader, he will lead ForestClan into countless bloody battles. Fallenrain gives up her kits and has Hawkshade bring them to WaterClan so that she can become Deputy. Fallenrain becomes leader of ForestClan, and accepts a young Kittypet tom named Specter into the Clan.

### ***Fogbreeze's Trial***

Fogbreeze is a Warrior of AirClan. AirClan begins having problems with minks that come from somewhere outside the Clan territories close to the Sharpgorge. Fogbreeze, Darkbriar and Birdbelly are part of a patrol to investigate the tunnels, and are attacked by minks. Birdbelly goes missing. After being banished temporarily from AirClan for going behind Hollystar's back and asking EarthClan for help with the minks, Fogbreeze leads Darkbriar and Eaglesight into the Twolegplace to try and find Birdbelly. Fogbreeze and Darkbriar begin to reconcile while on the lookout for Birdbelly and they eventually finally find her trapped in a Twoleg den and rescue her, bringing her back to AirClan. Hollystar finally agrees to let EarthClan help, and AirClan and EarthClan band together to drive out the minks. While fighting a mink, Darkbriar slips on the edge of the Sharpgorge and falls in. When Fogbreeze finally gets to the bottom of the Sharpgorge, he finds Darkbriar dead. He apologizes to his son for not having tried to reconcile with him before. Many moons later, Hollystar dies and leadership is passed on to Kestrelstar. Kestrelstar makes Fogbreeze Deputy.

### ***Yewstar's Storm***

Yewstar is the leader of ForestClan after Soulstar's death. He is trying to decide what kind of leader he will be, and is having trouble with living up to Soulstar's legacy. Suddenly, a great storm sweeps through the Clan territories, flooding the stone hollow and forcing ForestClan out of their camp. The ForestClan cats find out that Harestar died in the flood, and that Chivewhisker will become the new leader of FireClan. As the flood recedes, Yewstar realizes that he is not Soulstar, and that he can make his own decisions. He and Brightflame mend their relationship.

### ***Molestar's Shadow***

Moleclaw is the Deputy of FireClan. When his mate, Finchcry, leaves the Clans while pregnant with his kits, he must choose whether to remain with his Clan or follow her. He chooses the latter, and follows Finchcry to a distant Twolegplace, where she is living with a group of cats. They stay there for a while to raise Finchcry's newly born kit, Forestkit. Moleclaw helps the group of cats deal with attacking Rogues by teaching them Clan tactics. He and Finchcry then decide to return to FireClan. Moleclaw has almost reached FireClan when he is attacked by an owl and barely hangs on to life. However, StarClan heals him and gives him nine lives so that he can lead FireClan. Finchcry decides to join FireClan with Molestar and their kits.
