A fanfic where a new Clan, VineClan, exists alongside the canonical Clans. In this fanfic, instead of Mothwing, a cat named Oakstorm was Mudfur's apprentice, instead of Kestrelflight, a cat named Sageleaf was Barkface's apprentice, instead of Onewhisker, a cat named Palestream becomes leader, also Barley and Ravenpaw joined ThunderClan, becoming Barleywish and Ravenwing. Also! Ravenwing is trans in this au and nursing Barleywish's kits: Spotflower and Blackcoar. Also- SkyClan never left the forest in this au. Extra info for this au: Graystripe & Firestar are mates, with Sandstorm acting as a surrogate for them, and having five kits: Leafspots, Squirrelflight, Snowtail, Flameshine, and the deceased Ashenkit. Additionally, in this AU, Brightpaw died instead of Swiftpaw. Swiftpaw lost his left hind leg, but still became a warrior and fought fiercely and bravely. His warrior name is Swiftgaze. He's also trans (wow, I have a lot of trans cats..) and becomes mates with Cloudtail, having two kits: Patchfeather and Brightwish. As an apprentice, Patchpaw becomes the medicine apprentice rather than Leafpaw, and, as a warrior, Leafpaw takes the warrior name of Leafspots. Also, Swiftgaze is the deputy instead of Brambleclaw. That's all the changes!
Sunpaw is fighting his destiny and risking his own life because of it. Brackenstar is dealing with grief and betrayal. Riverstorm is cast out and desperate to belong. As these three cats, along with a few others, travel together, friendships will be gained, lives will lost, and trust must be earned - not to mention kept. Can they rely on each and make it back to their Clans before they get themselves killed?
