Violetpaw headed for the fresh-kill pile and took her time picking out a plump shrew. She spotted Puddleshine on the far side of the camp, making Scorchfur stretch out his leg to show how his injured shoulder was healing. Carrying the prey in her jaws, she headed back to the medicine-cat den.

But when she emerged from the bramble tunnel, she halted in shock, letting the shrew drop from her gaping jaws. Rain was lying on top of Darktail, his paws over the rogue leader’s nose and mouth. Darktail was struggling feebly and making a terrible choking noise.

Violetpaw stifled a gasp of horror, realizing that Rain was trying to cut off Darktail’s air and kill him. Rain hasn’t forgiven Darktail at all!

Will ah, Ivypool still contribute to the first search party to find SkyClan being shot down like in canon because Dovewing and Tigerheart both volunteered together in BB!AVOS? Because it always bugged me how Twigbranch forgave her for it because of canon's insistence that crossclan relationships are the worst thing ever (meaning it's perfectly fine Ivypool was willing to delay her own apprentice's chance at finding out what became of her potential family). Especially since Ivypool acted coldly when Twigbranch joined SkyClan too- which really makes me wonder why she doesn't resent Ivy too. I guess I should be asking what becomes of their relationship in Better Bones in general if you haven't changed Twigbranch's mentor, haha. Also, what are your thoughts/changes with Jayfeather and Twigbranch's dynamic? It makes me pretty sad how he treated her being attached to Alderpaw/heart given the ah, everything that happened to her and I wish there were consequences like her resenting him and him having to apologize. (Especially since she almost drowned trying to prove herself because of his harshness!)

OH there is no search party anymore, and also we don't even get a ThunderClan POV. BB!AVoS is in the eyes of Breezepelt, Heathertail, and Violetshine/Needletail. Harestar may be getting a chapter or two once Heather ends up with the Kin.

The ThunderClan POV was pointless and frustrating. Everyone had to become an asshole for any drama to happen as the plot was happening offscreen. Alderheart and Twigbranch's story will be told in an SE that also includes Sparkpelt as a pov, focused more on generational trauma from Bramblestar.

Jay isn't a StarClan holesniffer anymore, though, so he's not sitting there screaming at a child for not being religious enough or whatever.

However, even if that specific instance is cut, Ivypool is still very nasty about the idea of Dovewing's halfclan relationship still. That isn't changing. She has a lot of problems to grapple with and grudge-holding and the idea of "loyalty" are two of them.

These are exploited by the Impostor later.

"But SkyClan is different. You took me in and welcomed me. You taught me how cats can overcome even the worst times. You lost your home, you lost one another, but you found one another again and kept on going. I'm proud to be a SkyClan cat. I would never want to belong anywhere else." — Violetshine

How do things with the kin end up? Especially with Violet and Twig being taken in by them, and Alder joining?

The Kin make their first appearance during the Po3/OotS arc. Like in the books they had previously terrorized SkyClan, however in this AU we blend what happened in SkyClan and the Stranger with Hawkwing's Journey in a way - in that the attack happened in that interaction with who we know as Sol. In this rewrite, he was always Sol, not Harry. He seems friendly at first, bringing his then small group at the time and assisting in rescuing Leafstar and her then kits from the Twoleg Nest. As thanks Leafstar welcomes Sol and his group into SkyClan, just as she had done with plenty of cats before. They felt no reason to be scared. However, this was a ploy to make the cats vulnerable, and after gaining their trust, Sol and his group would launch an attack on SkyClan, taking one of Leafstar's lives and killing Patchfoot, Shrewtooth, and Nutpetal (Nutmeg from SkyClan's Destiny). SkyClan works together and does manage to drive the group out thanks to their numbers and allies in many places, something Sol hadn't expected. The clan grieves the loss of their clanmates, but move on anew, believing things would move on as usual.

When Jaypaw, Dawnpaw, Kestrelpaw, and Pebblepaw leave to find SkyClan, they unknowingly pass The Kin, even asking them about the fabled clan. Darktail thinks they should take them prisoner, but Sol waves them off and thinks they dare not slow their journey further. They feign niceties with the apprentices before going on their way, heading to the Lake where the plan really takes motion. The Kin settle in on the edge of RiverClan territory and make use of parts of Twolegplace as well. With their group having grown through Sol's silver tongue, the mysterious tom begins to insert himself into clan affairs and starting violence through manipulation. Darktail does the dirty work, while Sol plays people and have the clans turning against each other.

When Jaypaw, Dawnpaw, Kestrelpaw, and Pebblepaw return with SkyClan, they're the force of knowledge and power they need to not only unite the clans to fight off The Kin, but drive them out as well. Sol and Darktail, alongside their group, flee for now, but that's not the last they're seen. Darktail is the brawn while Sol is the brains. The group truly does respect Sol due to his way with words charming them, while Darktail is far more fearmongering. Darktail wants to attack again, but Sol takes a more backseat approach and insists the clans will come around once they see "the truth of what the world has in store for them". The group largely takes a backseat after this point in the Po3/OoTS arc, with Darktail and his closer followers making an appearance later when they come to collect the injured Frosty from WindClan, as well as when Darktail infiltrates the final battle to take his revenge on his father Onestar and his half-siblings. Darktail kills Onestar during the Great Battle and greatly injures Harespring to the point he barely survives, traumatizing Harespring.

A VISION OF SHADOWS TIME

Now we reach AVoS finally. Peace only lasts for 3 moons before Darktail returns to make his claim on the clans. After the Great Battle, with StarClan now locked away, many of the clans feel hopeless and uncertain of their future - the ones who weren't so close with the 12 aren't going to exactly understand the ins-and-outs of all they went through. Darktail now sees what Sol meant when he said "the truth of what the world has in store for them", and takes advantage of the hopelessness amongst the clans. The Kin had hurt them, yes, but many were wondering if Sol's words had been true, and if perhaps they were nothing more than rogues now if they didn't have the guidance of StarClan. This is the sway Darktail uses to recruit cats to his side and divide the clans, particularly those young and know little of the world of stars. Alderpaw ends up joining Darktail because he sees the injured amongst Darktail's group, and wishes to help them, perhaps even hopeful he can reason with Darktail and persuade them against attacking when the clans are at their lowest point. Like if Darktail had attacked right then and there, the clans would be on the brink of destruction with their instability. Surprisingly Darktail takes Alderpaw up on this and brings him back to camp alongside the one other cat who steps up wanting to come along - Needlepaw, much to her parent's dismay.

Other recruits join later for one reason or the other. These include:

ThunderClan: Lilypaw, Seedpaw, Sorreltail, Rosepetal, and Bumblestripe

ShadowClan: Berryheart, Starlingwing, Juniperpaw, Sleekpaw, Puddlepaw, Yarrowleaf, Pinenose

WindClan: Oatclaw, Furzepelt, Slightfoot, Hootwhisker, Frostysnow, and Owlwhisker

Riverclan: Icewing, Grasspelt, Shimmerpelt, Sneezecloud, Heronwing, and Copperpaw

SkyClan: Sunnypelt, Bouncefire, Plumwillow, Sandynose, and Bellaleaf (Twigkit and Violetkit have been here since The Great Battle)

Things actually start... good? Alderpaw is surprised by how close many of The Kin are, taking care of each other and working together just as a clan would. Alderpaw is the sole knowledge of herbs and is busy taking care of many cats, quickly earning their favor with his kindness. This actually becomes a liability for Darktail over time because soon Alderheart will have more sway over him in who people look to for clan decisions.

As the first to join The Kin, Alderpaw and Needlepaw are the first clan cats to learn what really happened to Hawkwing's kits - who have been nursed by a she-cat named Silt up until that point alongside her daughter Dragonfly. Silt is rather quick to clarify they're not her kits, saying Darktail brought them to her, and things fall into place from there. Alderpaw makes sure the kits are growing well, while Needlepaw declares herself Needletail despite clearly still being apprentice age. Needletail thinks this is all great and she loves the freedom she has as cats don't talk to her and treat her as an equal. However, Darktail's cruelty soon begins to show itself as he lashes out as his own cats when they do wrong in his eyes. It seems the name Sol greatly upsets him, the name of the group's former leader who left them...

Alderpaw and Needletail become very close with the kits, looking out for and protecting them under Darktail's continuously cruel reign that they realize they have no way to escape. When recruits begin wanting to go home, Darktail doesn't allow it, and makes an example of what will happen to those who try and flee. He drowns and kills Furzepelt and Heronwing after their attempt, placing the clan cats in a state of submission. Slowly Twig and Violet grow, the two asking to have clan names like the rest of the cats they've been growing with, and Alderpaw and Needletail name them Twigpaw and Violetpaw. In return, Twigpaw names Alderpaw Alderheart because of his kind heart that always looked out for them. The clan cats, who regret their choice to join Darktail's group and feel stupid, become incredibly close and tight knit, leaning on each other in these times. We learn more about what drove cats here, Juniperclaw and Alderheart bonding over their mothers being often too busy to spend time with them when they were little due to their deputy duties, and how their fathers died before they had the chance to see them receive their full names. Eventually a coup is planned to overthrow Darktail, but there's a spy in their midst - Sleekwhisker warns Darktail and he takes the masterminds behind it all to be executed via drowning: Alderheart, Needletail, and Juniperclaw. Needletail is executed first, much to the horror of Alderheart and Juniperclaw. Twigpaw and Violetpaw desperately try to intervene, but are held back by Darktail's goons. Just when Juniperclaw is next though, WindClan cats Sunstrike, Breezepelt, Thistleheart and Smokepaw ambush the camp, led by the still unnamed leader, Harespring. This is a big moment for Harespring as since the beginning of the arc he had been terrified of Darktail and feeling hopeless due to his inability to lead his clan. Learning he can be WindClan's leader with or without StarClan's blessing, he attacks Darktail and gives the clan cats the opening to fight back. Sorreltail, Owlwhisker, and Thistleheart are killed though.

Alderheart hasn't seen his family in so long and is excited to reunite with ThunderClan fully, but Twigpaw refuses to leave his side, and Violetpaw is especially shaken after watching Needletail die. Knowing the two sisters are SkyClan cats, the still grief-stricken Alderheart brings them to SkyClan and reunites them with their father, Hawkwing. Even when he tries to leave though, Twigpaw panics. She wants to go back to the way things were before - where they played with Plumwillow's kits, wrestled with Juniperclaw, and cuddled under Alderheart's soft fur. Those days were scary under Darktail, but they were all Twigpaw knew, and she didn't want to be left here with these strangers. Hawkwing gives Alderheart permission to bring Twigpaw with him to ThunderClan for the time being, unable to see her in such a state. Violetpaw stays with SkyClan, looking for stability after all this time of longing for it. The two sisters say their goodbyes before separating.

Alderheart returns to ThunderClan, who welcome him back joyfully. Squirrelflight, Hollystar, Lionblaze, and Jayfeather are the first to embrace him, before he's reunited with his sister Sparkfire. They get to catch up, Alderheart learning she had a budding relationship with Ambermoon and Toadstep's son Larksong. He gets to spend time with Lionblaze's kits, Bramblepaw and Leafpaw. He's finally home, surrounded by the people he loved, and yet... it didn't feel like home. He was thinking about how Juniperclaw was doing back in ShadowClan, if Violetpaw was settling in ok in SkyClan, if Frostysnow and her kits had managed to stay together on their way back to WindClan, and if Copperpelt had been able to make up with her brother like she said she would when she got to RiverClan. He had Rosepetal, who felt the same, as well as Lilyheart and Seedflare who did their best to show Twigpaw around and how she could make friends her own age with Bramblepaw and Leafpaw. But Twigpaw too felt it. Many of them felt it. Not all... but many.

They missed each other.

Darktail still wasn't gone though. Alderheart had a newfound conviction to see his friends again, in a place where Darktail didn't rule them. He saw what a world of cats was like even without StarClan, without the same laws, and the way they loved and cared. They were a clan, but they were also different, and Alderheart wanted to preserve that. Twigpaw is named Twigshade by Alderheart, as the she-cat denies Hollystar's name of Twigbranch and insists Alderheart should be one to name her. Alderheart manages to get his family to back him up in forming an alliance with the other four clans, all except for Sparkfire, who wants to put things to rest and move on with life. She finally had her brother back. She lost him once and didn't want to lose him again to Darktail. She refuses to fight in the battle and stays in camp, the she-cat's belly beginning to show signs of her pregnancy. Hollystar easily manages to get the newly named Harestar and WindClan on their side, as well as Leafstar and SkyClan, with Mistystar slower to accept but coming around at Pebblefoot's request. Rowanstar is the toughest, the tom having the hardest time with his clan after things with Darktail, and his deputy Dawnpelt having to step up and keep things in order. We learn Juniperclaw is not having a good time as Dawnpelt treats him with scorn due to his betrayal, telling him its his fault Crowfrost was dead. Puddlepaw is still being refused his full medicine cat name by Littlecloud, Yarrowleaf is being shamed for falling pregnant with Nettle's kits, Berryheart and Starlingwing are mourning their only daughter's death - it's a mess all around. It takes some arguing, but Dawnpelt comes around, her and Rowanstar agreeing to assist.

The clans unite and go to war with The Kin once more. Harestar goes face to face with Darktail, who still believes the WindClan leader lacks his nine lives. In the battle Sandstorm, Larksong, Rowanstar, Pinenose, Lioneye, Frostysnow, Morningflower, Gorsetail, Petalfur, Copperpelt, Rushtail, Firefern, Sandynose, Reedclaw all lose their lives. Harestar kills Darktail without losing a life, symbolism for him not necessarily needing the lives to defeat Darktail, and also finally putting an end to his terror. The Kin flee without their leader, and Alderheart rallies his once clanmates.

The Kin was disbanded, but Alderheart surprises his family when he wishes to leave ThunderClan and join SkyClan to be with Twigshade and Violetshine.

This obviously skips over a lot like Violetshine's SkyClan stuff, Smokehaze's POV in WindClan, Sparkfire things, Tree, The Sisters & Sol stuff, the last third of AVoS with Shadowpaw and Sparkfire, Harespring's nine lives, Willowshine's StarClan connection, etc - just things about the The Kin.

I hope you enjoyed reading that though, and thank you for supporting Power of Twelve!!

[warrior-cats-rewritten]

So I kind of want to wash away and reform AVOS. I'm split on the choice here.

Windclan!Needletail (or just a different cat, maybe Heathertail's rebellious child...?) Being the swap out here. Violetkit growing up in Windclan and their religious zealousness feeling like an outsider constantly.

Windclan suffers from Yellowcough plague and is denied help from Riverclan, putting some focus on them, with Shadowclan shutting borders down (because they get loads of focus in TBC and ASC and honestly Mistystar's sudden dickhead behavior could at least have a beginning here and make Mothwing extremely disillusioned with Riverclan life by the time ASC rolls around)

It's painfully obvious a bad choice gets made with Violet and Twig here too because is a skinny little thing, and Violet ends up chubby and bulkier. She can't run on the moor like everyone else instead of Shadowclan just... being assholes? It would make Windclan more agitated with Onestar too.

Also the Darktail situation is much more personal. That's not-Needletail's half uncle! Destroying Windclan and taking it over by promising he'll outperform his father, they don't have to be at the lazy and arrogant Onestar's command. Come Be Family, Be The Kin :)

Not-Needletail would try and show him fire to have cooked food like the Clans, and he uses it as a weapon to set Shadowclan's territory on fire, killing many cats (this would kill actual Needletail, and driving loads of Shadowclan, also dissatisfied with Rowanstar's passive leadership into Darktail's Kin would still push Berryheart into her Hate Spiral).

Riverclan reopens at Reedwhisker's command while Mistystar is at the Moonpool because "well you left me in charge, I was temporary leader and that meant my word was law and you love me so much mom"

It would be a huge actual battle all while these poor sisters are trying to find their family, Sparkpelt is grappling with her trauma and pressure to be Firestar 2.0, and Heathertail is watching her father deal with the monster he created.

Would the ripple effects be massive? Absolutely. I have no clue what this will entail for A Starless Clan, which already is rippling quite hard. Am I going to have to bleed Rowanstar's lives heavily? Yes, I might even still keep the Shadowclan plague and still have Onestar be a self-righteous fuckhead leading to both clans getting fucked over. Needletail could still be Heathertail's kid, whereas Sleekwhisker and Strikestone are Berryheart's kids and she watches her daughter get wrapped up in everything and becoming a horrible person. Windclan joins Skyclan and Shadowclan joins Riverclan setting up the tension suddenly present in ASC- "You didn't wanna be here before why the fuck are in our business now?"

It would take a LOT of work but it could work.

[blimbo-buddy]

In my rough draft of an avos rewrite, TwigBranch and VioletShine are both in the kin and FinLeap also joins the kin later on. TwigBranch and FinLeap form a strong friendship that only stays as a strong friendship. I'd imagine maybe some of those typical FinLeap traits (minus the "I wants kids I don't care about your opinion" thing obviously) really comes out during a falling out between TwigBranch and FinLeap. After this I'd probably have FinLeap be caught helping some kin members escaping or something like that and he's taken prisoner to be executed, TwigBranch would probably be suspected of being a traitor somehow so to have her prove her innocence, DarkTail has the execution of FinLeap be handled by TwigBranch.

So the time comes for the execution and the two tearfully reconcile right as the execution is to commence in the lake. FinLeap tells TwigBranch that it's too late for him and he would rather die than TwigBranch be tortured or killed, immediately shutting down any spontaneous idea that TwigBranch tries to come up with. The two realize that they both look suspicious during the execution, and almost on the fly, FinLeap tells TwigBranch that he's going to run and she's going to charge after him as fast as she can to make the execution look more believable in a way. The pain eats away at TwigBranch, but she tearfully nods, promising her friend that she'd make it quick and painless. And so, FinLeap ran, TwigBranch pursued and leapt for his throat. Quick and painless. Like she had promised.
