Shrubstar's Ascent

## Plot overview

The next morning, Shrubkit ponders on who his mentor will be, The kits' father Voletooth, who doesn't interact with the two often, pulls them aside to remind them of his status in the Clan, and that anything they do will reflect on him. He says that he expects nothing but the highest level of output from the two. Shrubkit internally vows he will get Voletooth's attention and make him proud of his growth as an apprentice, one way or another.

When the time comes for the apprenticeship ceremony, Flintspark is made Buzzardpaw's mentor, and Shrubpaw's is Tamarackneedle. Shrubpaw is slightly disappointed at first and thinks that he would have preferred a stronger cat, but notes that Tamarackneedle is quick and clever, so his apprenticeship might not turn out too bad after all.

They were born as **Rowankit** to Adderstrike and Cloverpatch into a crowded SkyClan nursery. She's youngest of her age group by half a moon, but was apprenticed early with Ivysnout's litter. For the first two moons of her life, she lived happily and care-free with her loving parents and older half-brother Falconsoar taking care of her. She loved playfighting with the other kits, especially her best friend Sprigkit. The two loved following one of the older kits, Balsamkit around the camp and making up games together. When Balsampaw became a healer apprentice her and Sprigkit loved hanging out in the healer den and watching/bugging her while she worked. Rowankit gained a bit of a reputation for being kind of loud, passionate, and a bit of a daredevil, never turning down one of Sprigkit's dares, much to her parents' dismay.

However, one morning after Cloverpatch was on night-guard of SkyClan's camp, Shrubstar's mate Hazeltwig was found dead close to the RiverClan border. Unbeknownst to SkyClan, the healer Daisybloom had actually caused her death, but Shrubstar still pinned blame on Cloverpatch for negligence. He was exiled, and Shrubstar secretly sent Rushclaw after him to murder the former kittypet. Rowankit snuck out of camp that night to follow Cloverpatch's scent trail and followed it to the gruesome sight of their father's mangled body. They were traumatized by the event and sensed foul play, as no fox or badger would brutalize a cat that much, unless it was personal. As a result, Rowankit held a hatred for her suspect, Shrubstar, and his posse of favored warriors ever since.

When Ivysnout's litter reached six moons of age, it was decided that Rowankit would be apprenticed a half-moon early with them. Their mentor was their older half-sister Flashfire, who'd been begging Shrubstar for an apprentice for some time. However, she was dismayed that she was given Rowanpaw, who she saw as the symbol of her mother leaving "the family" after splitting up with her father Acornfall. The two of them did not get along well, with them often taking out their aggression in battle training with each other. Rowanpaw often got into trouble and was outspoken, and Flashfire feared that it would reflect badly on herself as a mentor.

He found making close relationships with other cats meaningless anyway. He doesn’t hate other cats exactly; he just thinks they could be more productive if they just stuck to hunting and patrolling instead of chatting and sharing tongues.

When a rogue cat named Canyon and her young kit Turtle joined WindClan, however, he changed his mind and they grew close to each other because they both had to deal with social isolation.

From a young age, she showed an interest in healing and SkyClan's healer Daisybloomtook her on as an apprentice, as she was the only healer for the Clan when Gustsweep retired. However, WindClan's healer Fawnbright was killed horribly in battle. Her apprentice Snowpaw had just begun his training days earlier and was not capable of dealing with his Clan's yellowcough endemic on his own, so Daisybloom volunteered to train the young apprentice. No other Clan would as SkyClan and WindClan were at war with all of the other Clans. While Daisybloom is gone, the brunt of the Clan’s health falls on Balsampaw. Not only is she overwhelmed by her duties, but she and her friend Rowanpaw know something is shady about Shrubstar and his supposed mystical connection to StarClan. He continues to lead SkyClan into many battles and Balsampaw cannot keep up with the amount of injured cats coming into the the Healer's Hollow. Fortunately, or not so fortunately, Daisybloom came back from WindClan and has been acting incredibly strange and guarded. And then, Balsampaw witnessed her trying to poisoning a cat. Not just any cat, but the outspoken and critical Cloveflame. At that moment Balsampaw connected the dots about why certain cats tended to disappear or die suddenly, and that her mentor was wrapped up in everything going on. She was able to stop her without making it seem like she knew what was going on, but Balsampaw was terrified for her, her family, and especially Rowanpaw. If Rowanpaw knew she might act recklessly, attack or piss off the wrong Clanmate, and disappear like many before, so she kept the information secret from her friend.

Blueberrypaw, another apprentice, realized she had a hard time managing her stress so they go to the Hollow often to help her calm down. Balsampaw got a crush on them as the two of them spent more time together and Blueberrypaw felt the same way. Unbeknownst to her, her friend Rowanpaw also had feelings for her and was devastated when she found out about her and Blueberrypaw's relationship.
Smokescorch

**Smokescorch** was a smoky-black tabby tom with green eyes and a burn scar on his flank.

**Smokescorch** was a ThunderClan healer and was born as a kittypet named **Gus** in Twolegplace. **Gus** lived peacefully with his owners until their house caught fire while they were away. All of the exits were locked so he ran upstairs and jumped out of a second-story window. In the process, he got a horrible burn on his flank and inhaled a lot of smoke. He fled in terror from the house and into the forest, where he cooled his burn in a stream. While **Gus** was recovering, he saw a group of cats patrolling and hunting in the forest. Curious, he ventured closer and a ThunderClan patrol scented him. He told them his story and they offered to heal him and let him live with them for a while.

While **Gus** was being treated in the healer den, he took an interest in medicine and asked to stay and become an apprentice. He was renamed **Smokepaw** and became a healer apprentice.
Ramboulder

**Ramboulder** is a huge, broad-faced silver tom with green eyes.

**Ramboulder** is a WindClan warrior that has served under Rabbitstar's, Fieldstar's and Grousestar's leaderships. He was born as a loner and lived on his own in the mountains for several moons as a kit. While Fieldbillow and her mate Marmotstone were exploring the mountains, they discovered him and the kit decided to join WindClan as their adopted child.
Flashfire

**Flashfire** is a spiky-furred bright ginger-and-white tabby she-cat with sharp yellow eyes.

Flashfire was born as Firekit in the SkyClan nursery with her brother Falconkit to her parents Adderstrike and Acornfall. She was a loud, competitive, and energy-filled kit who quickly formed a rivalry with an older kit named Tulipkit. They squabbled and competed against each other for attention from their parents. In particular, Firekit wanted her mother to focus more on her and less on her brother, who she seemed to be enamored with. She started to take on more and more dares from Tulipkit and riskier stunts, but never felt that her mother gave her as much attention as she craved. At the time, Adderstrike was depressed with the state of her relationship and her lessened mobility because she lost her leg in a bear trap. Firekit always assumed it was because she wasn't doing enough to make Adderstrike proud of her, when that wasn't true.

Zephyr Alliance

## The Zephyr Alliance

**The Zephyr Alliance** was a battle alliance between SkyClan and WindClan. SkyClan's leader Shrubstar offered to establish a partnership with WindClan's Fieldstar and her warriors to increase his fighting force. The latter accepted in part because, unbeknownst to the Clans, she was a half-Clan cat with a SkyClan father. Her Clan was also still recovering from a devastating flood that occurred the spring prior, and she figured that it was better to have allies than enemies in a time of weakness.
