(written by @Ashnosethemute on scratch): Hornetflame is a tall, slim she-cat with long flowy cream fur dappled with golden and black markings. She has sharp yet wide very dark blue eyes. Faint scars mark her chest and one of her hind legs. Atop her head sits a crown of large flowers consisting mostly of purples and blues. Matching that there is a vine wrapped around her front left leg that starts out a deep violet and eventually fades into a icy blue.

## Life

### **Kithood**

Hornetkit was born in the RiverClan nursery, in leafbare. It was very cold, and she had to be warmed up. Her parents are Quilldawn and Leopardthorn. She has 3 littermates, Spiderkit, Beetlekit and Antkit. Hornetkit loves to play with everyone she meets, and is overall pretty friendly. She formerly had a crush on Wasppaw, her former denmate, and her friend. Hornetkit looks up to her brother-like figure, Newtchaser, and Ospreyfeather.

She met Charfrost one day when she was asking her if she liked Newtchaser.

Hornetkit got into an arugement with Wasppaw one day, and spoke to Charfrost about it. Charfrost supported her and Hornetkit sees her as a mother and a friend because of this

She can't wait to be an apprentice. I don't know why, but I'm putting her zodiac sign. Since she was born in early October, she's a Libra.

### **Apprenticeship**

Hornetpaw is more sad as an apprentice. She is jealous of her sister, Antpaw for being loved, pretty and liked more. Hornetpaw often has thoughts about running away, often cried a lot. She didn't feel comforted.

At Hornetpaw's apprentice ceremony, none of her siblings or parents showed up, but her mother showed up to all of her siblings. Hornetpaw is sad a lot because of this, and thinks of herself at nothing.

Hornetpaw's mentor is Newtchaser, and she admires him.

Hornetpaw and Antpaw bond.

Hornetpaw is sleeping in the apprentices den, when Wasppaw's bites her because of an arguement they got into. Hornetpaw doesn't care, and gets into another arguement with Wasppaw. Hornetpaw calls her an overgrown kit, and Wasppaw bites her again and throws her against a wall. Hornetpaw slashes Wasppaw. Blah blah blah they fight and Wasppaw insults her and yaaa. Wasppaw tried to kill Hornetpaw by slashing her throat, but no no honey I ain't letting go of Hornet quite yet so Hornetpaw bites Wasppaw. Blah blah blah Hornetpaw ripped part of Wasppaw's ear off, Wasppaw tore a chunk of fur off her blahblahblah yeaahhhh fightttttttt. Russetpaw, Chestnutheart and Ripplewatcher come in and stop the fight. Luckily, not too much damage was done.

-Waspsnow gets chased off RiverClan territory, and Hornetpaw and Waspsnow have a sweet but sad moment

-Talks to Hickorypaw and Waspsnow in Hickorypaw’s and Hornetflame’s hideout. A badger (the SAME one that killed Quilldawn and almost killed Hornet and Wasp) comes in and Hickorypaw noticed it, making a loud screech. Hornetflame wakes up and sends Hickorypaw back to camp for more help, and she comes back with Antwhisker and they defeat the badger. Hornetflame kills the badger when Antwhisker is pinned and Hickorypaw gets hurt. Hornetflame carries Hickory back to camp, and thinks it’s all her fault. (Her as in Hornetflame.

They get into a fight because Hornetflame isn’t ready to forgive Waspsnow after she tried to murder her, Newtchaser, Hornetflame’s mother, Hickorypaw, gagged and kidnapped Nettlepaw, and more. So Antwhisker yells at Hornetflame, and the two get into a very intense arguement/fight

-Talks to Nettlepaw

-Talks to Frondglow

-Antwhisker comes back to camp, and apologizes to Hornetflame. Hornetflame says that she’s hurt and isn’t ready to forgive her, and they get into another sort of arguement. Hornetflame runs into the warriors den, and Antwhisker doesn’t comfort her again. This makes the fire in Hornetflame bigger. She gets so angry and hurt that she tries to commit oof by jumping in the river and drowning. Antwhisker chases after her and saves her, but when Antwhisker is getting out of the river, her tail/paw (I can’t remember lol) gets stuck, and Hornetflame jumps in the river again, saving Antwhisker. After all, they might fight some times but they are sisters. Treated by Beechstorm

-Talks to Puddlecloud

-Talks to Waspsnow

-Meets Burningkit! The two name Burningkit’s feather. They name the feather ‘Ash’ and try to get some friends for Ash.

-Talks to Hickorypaw, and they try to imitate ducks. Hickorypaw and Hornetflame just play around with each other and Hornetflame shoves Hickorypaw into the pond (playfully >:0) and Hickorypaw tackles Hornetflame and she jokes around and Hickorypaw takes it seriously- Hornetflame feels guilty. Then the two go fix their hideout which was destroyed by the badger. (Con-)

-Talks to Mistykit about who her mentor will be, and tells her about StarClan

-Sees Waspsnow on RiverClan territory, though she’s supposed to be exile and Hornetflame unsheathes her claws. It was the last straw. Waspsnow apologizes to Hornetflame about whatever is making her so bitter and the two talk.

Okay so some of the next stuff might be in the wrong order, since I didn't update this for a while so I probably forgot some of it. Please bear with me.

I never actually got to all the events, so I’ll give you a gist of it:

Mistykit becomes Mistypaw! <33 Her mentor is Silksong :) Hornetflame trusts this decision, and at her ceremony, things are a bit.. weird with Silksong. Hornetflame suspects she’s doing something forbidden.

then she goes to a gathering, and meets two ShadowClan cats, Poolfur and Flameheart. She and Poolfur get along really well, and they go off to go swimming together. They seem to be great friends. Flameheart also gets along well with Hornetflame, they just aren’t best friends like Pool and her. She continues to sneak off to meet Poolfur, and feels wrong doing so. She speaks to Newtchaser about her friendship with Poolfur, and asks if it’s wrong. He replies with a ‘no’, there is no saying in the warrior code that you cannot be friends with a cat in another clan. It’s only forbidden to be mates with them. She takes his advice, thanking him greatly. He reveals he is best friends with the WindClan medicine cat, Mallardripple.

One day, Newtchaser doesn’t come home and Hornetflame is out looking for him. She accidentally crosses the WindClan and RiverClan border, and notices a tom crying in WindClan territory. She asks him who he is, and he says he’s Mallardripple. He says he is crying because Newtchaser is badly hurt. They have a cute moment, where Hornetflame reassures him Newtchaser is the strongest cat she knows and he’ll be okay.

Hornetflame, still sneaking off to meet Poolfur, grows a fondness for ShadowClan, and she meets another ShadowClan cat, Berryspeck. They become friends. Hornetflame even considers leaving RiverClan to go to ShadowClan to be with him. She doesn’t tell anyone but Poolfur. Hornetflame makes Hickorypaw meet Poolfur, and it doesn’t go well. At all.

One day, Poolfur comes to visit Hornetflame. She sees him differently. He takes her to ShadowClan, and he teaches her how to climb trees. She doesn’t like it, because she broke her paw in a tree when she was younger. They have a cute moment in the treetops. Poolfur has a crush on her.

Hornetflame goes back to RiverClan, and makes up with Antwhisker. She reveals she’s leaving RiverC;am. She also tells this to Hickorypaw.

She leaves, and Poolfur comforts her when she’s crying. She never actually joins ShadowClan

Hornetflame goes back to RiverClan to say goodbye because she’s dying

-Hornetflame dies from injuries, with Hickorypaw, Newtchaser, Nettlepaw, Frecklepool, Waspsnow and Mistypaw there to witness it.

the end :)

## Quotes

"I get it. Loving someone, then them not loving you back. It hurts." - Hornetkit to Ripplewatcher about Charfrost.

"YEAHHH!! VICTORY IS MINE! How does it feel to be beaten?" - Hornetkit to Newtchaser about winning the race to the pond.

"Why am I hiding? You lied!" - Angry Hornetkit to Ripplewatcher

"People know you... but they don’t know the real you. That feeling is so familiar. Take your time.. and if you decide that you don’t or do feel anything towards him, then let him know.” - Hornetkit to Charfrost about liking Newtchaser

"I miss him. But no matter how much I wish for him back, I know he's really gone." - Hornetkit to Clovershine about Ratwhisker's death

"Antpaw is so pretty, loved and better than me. Beetlepaw is smart, sweet and also better than me. Spiderpaw is friendly, playful... and also better than me. What am I? I am nothing. Everyone likes my siblings better... even Quilldawn. Antpaw especially." Hornetpaw, to herself, in her thoughts.

“Do you want the sarcastic award?” -Hornetpaw to Storm

“Yell at me, wish death upon me if you want. Throw your sticks, and throw your stones. You won’t break my soul and spirit. You need to realize that other cats have feelings too. You have to let them heal, by helping them. When my wings were growing, nobody helped me fly. All I did was plummet, while everyone helped you soar through the skies. All I am is just hurt. It takes time for some cats to forgive. And that’s what I’m feeling, after everything. Give me time, and I’ll- I guess I’ll heal.” -Hornetflame to Antwhisker

"I'm loyal to Hickorypaw, and her /only/." -Hornetflame to Waspsnow

“Maybe I’ll stay.” She murmured. “Be the cat I was born as.” Hornetflame felt tears trickle down her cheeks. “But that’s not who I am. I am Hornetflame.” She said boldly. “Warrior of the unknown. I will choose who I am, not who others expect me to be. I am brave, smart and resilient. When my mother died, I stood up and faced it. I am not perfect, nor flawless. I am just me. I fight, get angry or sad sometimes. But we all do that. I make up, forgive and apologize. Don’t we all? I believe that I can do something that’s impossible. Because unless proven, it’s not truly impossible. I will fight for not you, not what you expect me to be but for myself. For myself.” Hornetflame cut off, turning abruptly towards the warriors den. “I will figure out who I am. Not who I’m meant to be.” Then she added the last part softly. “And you; do the same.” -Hornetflame out loud to herself cuz I felt like giving a speech

”Hi, mom.” -Hornetflame to Charfrost

“In the end.. promises are just words. Words that you think mean something, but they are worthless. I will miss you, Newtchaser. I love you, brother.” -Hornetflame to Newtchaser in her last breaths
