A starry cat sat beside a pool of water where she was viewing a short grey tom with darker grey flecks.
“What has happened to my precious kit?” The starry cat asked, a single tear sliding down her face. She sounded so distressed. The heart of anyone that heard would ache with sympathy.
It was completely earth shattering for her to believe her son, that had felt so lucky to have, especially when two of his littermates had died. Was the same cat who held so much hate inside him.
“What will happen if the opportunity arises? Would he really try to kill those three?” She whispered, her voice choked with grief.
Suddenly she froze, a look of horror crossing her face. The ThunderClan camp had been set ablaze.
No! Oh please no! My son! Don't do it!”
She knew it was pointless to will otherwise. Her son. . .Was going to try to kill Hollyleaf, Jayfeather and Lionblaze. And for what? Why must he hold onto his resentment of Squirrelflight?

Rain dripped onto the ground.
Vixen watched. They watched this before. It was odd to see it again.
If it's happening again, then it's not really happening again. They thought. Vixen had been around since the clans were formed. They had watched it all. They weren't quite sure what they were. They could interact with the living. But they usually did not.
So why were they seeing this again? A few days ago they had come across something strange. Interacting with it had caused them to be transported to the past. But it wasn't the past. This wasn't their timeline.
What will be different? Vixen asked silently. Watching as Hollyleaf began to start creeping up on Ashfur.
Then after she attacked Ashfur, Vixen saw what was different.
Hollyleaf lashed her claws along Ashfur's throat. But, she hadn't gone deep enough. Either she had done it by accident or she had just figured he'd drown as she let him fall into the water below.
Vixen turned. Not quite sure it mattered Ashfur would surely still die.
No. It couldn't be that simple. This was an alternate timeline. And they had been transported here because this is when the timeline changed. It would only change here if Ashfur would live.
Vixen swished their white, grey speckled tail. But how? That was the only question in their mind.
Then a firmilliar shape came into view.
Oh. . .My. . .StarClan. . .I see where this is going. I must say, I'm shocked. Vixen took a seat and watched. Feeling too lazy to go closer.

AN:

Yes I made Ashfur short. I just head cannon him  as being only an ear length taller than Squirrelflight. So that's how he is in the AU. :)
