## History

### In the *Super Editions*

#### *Bramblestar's Storm*

At the Gathering, Blackstar mentions that Applefur was one of the ShadowClan cats slain in the battle against the Dark Forest. When the cats who had died in the Great Battle appear as StarClan cats in front of Bramblestar at another Gathering, Applefur is one of the cats noted to be among them.
### In *The New Prophecy* arc

#### *Dawn*

Applekit is one of Tallpoppy's three young kits, the other two being Marshkit and Toadkit. She flees from the ShadowClan camp, which is being destroyed by Twolegs, with her mother and siblings. Later, during the Great Journey, Applekit and her brothers make friends with Birchkit, a ThunderClan kit. Her mother, Tallpoppy, also seems to be getting along well with Ferncloud, Birchkit's mother.
#### *Starlight*

When the Clans find new territory, Tallpoppy helps to guide her kits down the steep slope to come up beside the lake. Cloudtail and Brightheart dart forward and each grab a kit in their jaws. Later, Applekit and her brothers are seen play-fighting with
Birchkit. As the day wears on, Ferncloud tells her son to sleep, for
they are going to visit the hollow tomorrow. Birchkit asks his mother if
 Applekit and her brothers can come along, but Tallpoppy explains that
they belong to a different Clan. Birchkit whines that it's unfair, and
all four kits cluster together, claiming that they will never split up.
Ferncloud tells Birchkit not to be silly, and that he will see them at
Gatherings when he is an apprentice.
 When the kits are forced to split up, Applekit darts forward and
touches noses with the young ThunderClan kit while their mothers look
sadly at one another.

### In the *Power of Three arc*

#### *Outcast*

When reminded of the mountains, Birchfall proclaims that he wants to go back, since The Great Journey had been so much fun. He
reminds his Clanmates that he had three good friends: Applefur,
Marshkit, and Toadfoot. But Berrynose reminds him that he can no longer be friends with the ShadowClan cats, and Birchfall remains silent. Later, when the journeying cats are in the
 mountains, Brambleclaw skirts a huge clump of bracken and comments
that Applefur had fallen there when she was a kit and had been picked up by Ferncloud.

### In the *Omen of the Stars arc*

#### *Night Whispers*

Applefur is in the ShadowClan camp when some of the warriors are discussing ways to improve their battle tactics against ThunderClan.
She suggests that they look up so they can move out of the way before
the ThunderClan warriors can jump down on them. Later, she is seen on a border patrol with Smokefoot when they find Tigerheart, Ivypaw, and Dovepaw at the border. Applefur and Smokefoot challenge Ivypaw as to why she was out "hunting" at that strange time. The three ShadowClan warriors
then take Ivypaw back to their camp.

#### *Sign of the Moon*

She is seen training in the Place of No Stars with her Clanmates, Tigerheart and her father, Ratscar.
#### *The Forgotten Warrior*

Applefur is seen as a kit on the Great Journey when Jayfeather leads Cinderheart into Cinderpelt's memories. Applekit bounces up to Cinderpelt and complains that she has
burrs in her fur. Cinderpelt tells her that she'll help her untangle
them when they stop, and until then, to watch where she's putting her
paws. Applekit thanks her and charges off toward her littermates.

#### *The Last Hope*

Applefur is first seen in the Dark Forest when she tells Hawkfrost that Blossomfall and Birchfall want to fight Dark Forest warriors. She says that warriors don't kill when Mapleshade says that they need to work on their killing blow. She says she thought the Dark Forest had sought her out. When Ivypool says there might be
more traitors like Sol,
 she says the next time a rogue tries to drive the Clans apart, she'll
stand beside ThunderClan, not against them. Ivypool notices her melting
away with Hollowflight and Redwillow. Applefur is later seen training in the Dark Forest with Ivypool when Beetlewhisker tries to escape. She tells him not to leave because he has friends there. Brokenstar says he will kill her first if they try to go against the Place of No Stars. She stays with the fear of being killed, but when they're told to
 attack WindClan, Ivypool reminds her that a warrior will die to protect
 his or her Clan. Applefur is ashamed and says her life would be a small
 price to pay considering what she's done, but Ivypool says that there
is no time for that and they must fight at the moment. Applefur then
dashes off to fight. She is then seen flinging herself at a ragged tom,
and says she fights for the Clans.

### In the *Field Guides*

#### *Secrets of the Clans*

Birchpaw speaks about his excitement in seeing Applekit,
Marshkit, and Toadkit at his first Gathering. He wants to tell them that
 the thrush he had nearly caught had actually been an eagle. He is sure that they will be impressed.
