Five Truths About Plumwillow


i.

Waspwhisker's only littermate was a she-cat named Plum. They were close their entire kithood, until twolegs separated them.

The second-born kit, a she-kit, looks exactly like Plum. There is no deliberation over her name. And there will be no power that can separate little Plumkit from her kin.


ii.

If Rabbitpaw is their mother's joy, then Plumpaw is the apple of their father's eye. But she insists that their parents don't play favorites.

And she doesn't tell her brothers when Waspwhisker takes her hunting, just the two of them.


iii.

She is the sap that holds her littermates together. She keeps Rabbitleap grounded, and she keeps Creekfeather out of trouble, and she keeps Nettlesplash around.

But being the only she-cat in a litter of four is a lot of work. She becomes fast friends with her mentor, Tinycloud; and with fellow apprentice, Honeypaw.


iv.

She develops a crush on Creekfeather's best friend, Swiftleap. Once she becomes a warrior she sets out to make him feel the same way.

(Little does she know that Swiftleap does feel the same way… about Honeyflower.)


v.

Her world comes crashing down around her in a matter of days.

Swiftleap and Honeyflower are mates. Tinycloud chooses sides. Creekfeather refuses to choose a side.

For the first time ever, her confidence is truly shaken.


(Bonus i.)

She throws herself into her warrior duties. If she has to patrol the entire territory by herself to avoid Swiftleap and Honeyflower, then so be it.

All the time spent by herself in nature is healing. And her new work ethic catches the eye of Leafstar.

When Cherrytail's kits are six moons old, she receives her first apprentice.


(Bonus ii.)

When Plumwillow is a senior warrior, she dwells on her younger moons and is grateful for where she is now.

The sap that holds her littermates together. Friends with Honeyflower and Tinycloud. The mentor of three warriors. A devoted mate.

And the mother to three toms, and a she-kit.


I want to do all four of the SkyClan littermates before I move on! We started with Rabbitleap, so here's Plumwillow!

As I said before, I haven't read past OoTS so I don't take the newer arcs into consideration when writing these things. That's why Plumwillow's path takes a drastic turn from her canon path.
