"A Clan divided by scars must fight to stay whole."
CrackedShell Clan is no stranger to hardship. Their name carries the weight of old battles, broken families, and scars that never truly fade. Yet even as new generations rise, shadows still coil around the heart of the Clan.
SmokeChaser, a warrior forged by guilt, strives to lead with patience and reason, but his Clan teeters on the edge of cruelty and decay. Kits are pressured, apprentices stumble beneath impossible standards, and the strong silence the weak. Beneath it all, cracks spread wider with every passing moon.
Beyond the safety of the border, VoidStrike, a quiet Rouge haunted by his past, watches and listens. He wants no part in Clan rivalries, but destiny has other plans. For when secrets begin to unravel, even an outcast cannot remain untouched.
As loyalty frays and shadows rise, one truth becomes clear: when the shell breaks, what lies beneath may doom them all.

ThicketClan's Destiny 2: A Rippled Clan
Also a working title. Better than "Bramblenight's Kits" though. Oh, and this is NOT a stand-alone! Read ThicketClan's Destiny: Bramblenight's Kits first, please! It's in my reading list "ThicketClan's Destiny"! Disclaimer: Warriors is NOT mine, nor will I claim it. The characters, clans and place are all my idea but the customs and ideas are not mine (except the plot, that's mine as well but still. UGH! BASICALLY WARRIORS WAS NOT MY IDEA. THERE. MUCH LESS HEADACHE-INDUCING). Warriors is by Erin Hunter (who is more than one person if I remember correctly). Ripplekit's only four and a half moons old. He already loves his Clan and his family. He barely remembers everything he did in StarClan but it doesn't really matter. But when StreamClan steals him and his sister, Cloudedkit, from their home, they accidentally force ThicketClan into a battle that chases them from their own territory. But ClearClan can't take in a whole Clan. So, they have to go to EmberClan in hopes that Gleamstar will help them. Ripplekit hopes he can figure out how to help when he's a warrior. An apprentice even! But the problem is, he doesn't know if he can. Words: 32, 896 Started: June 20, 2024 Finished: ...Way later than expected. June 13... of 2025... almost a year later...Complete

However, with rivalries, forbidden friendships, war, and a prophecy looming over them, everything unfolded to be much more complex than intended, bringing information they may have never wanted to learn.
