#Gorsefire AU

[katiek101]

☀️ More about your Gorsepaw AU?

It takes place at the end of the last hope. StarClan is celebrating its victory while also welcoming the new cats who died and joined their ranks. Old Clanmates and long-lost kin are being reunited, it's all very touching.

Gorsepaw wants to join in the celebration but he feels out of place. He knows from past experience that if he walks up to a new warrior and greets them, even if they're from WindClan, they're going to look at him like "should I know you". The ones who recognize him do so only by name and then they're like "oh you're the apprentice from that story my mom told me about!" And what story are they referring to? The only one that Gorsepaw plays a part in, the one where Tigerstar makes all of WindClan watch as he pins him down and makes an example out of him.

Despite the celebration, Gorsepaw feels hollow. He's tried for such a long time to accept his death and just when he thinks he's made peace with it, he realizes that he's still a bitter apprentice. So he leaves in search of an important pool.

In StarClan there are different pools that can show you different things. Anyone can look into them, but there is one pool that everyone has always advised Gorsepaw to ignore; the pool that can show a cat glimpses of the future, either a cat that is still alive or a cat that died young. Gorsepaw has never looked into it and asked what his own future would've held if Tigerstar never killed him. But now it's eating him alive and he just has to know.

But before his future is shown to him, there's a commotion. Gorsepaw startles and falls into the pool. He opens his eyes and suddenly he's not in StarClan anymore, he's in WindClan. He's frozen in shock. He doesn't understand what's happened but he doesn't have time to dwell on it either because just moments later, Mudclaw bursts into camp sounding an alarm, and Gorsepaw instantly realizes what day it is; it's the day that TigerClan attacks WindClan and Tigerstar kills him to send a warning to everyone else.

Without thinking, Gorsepaw runs out of camp, far away from the battle. He's frazzled and confused and scared but he knows that he is Not supposed to be alive rn. He decides to tell Onewhisker, his mentor and future leader, everything and maybe they can come up with a way to get Gorsepaw back to StarClan. He really doesn't want to die again but he also doesn't want to change the future.

When Gorsepaw returns to WindClan he finds out that in his absence, Tigerstar used Onewhisker to make an example out of. WindClan's next leader is dead and it's Gorsepaw's fault because he ran.

Firestar and his patrol arrive but just like last time, they're too late. Firestar and Tallstar speak and agree to form LionClan. Gorsepaw has always admired Firestar and he knows that StarClan has sent him dreams for a long time; if anyone is capable of believing his situation then it will be Firestar.

So Gorsepaw asks to speak to him alone. He explains his situation to Firestar, explains that he is supposed to be dead and Onewhisker would have gone on to lead WindClan, and he asks Firestar what he should do now. Firestar's answer catches him off guard:

"You live."

There's more to it ofc but basically, Firestar says that even though they don't understand exactly how or why, Gorsepaw has been granted a second chance at life and Firestar thinks it would be a waste to not use it.

So then... okay. Gorsepaw won't focus on getting back to StarClan, he'll focus on living a normal life but he wants to cause as few ripples as possible. It's very important to him that the future remains as untouched as possible.

So he doesn't tell Firestar about BloodClan or Scourge or SkyClan, etc, and Firestar doesn't ask, he simply says "see you in three days."

Gorsepaw attends the meeting with TigerClan, but as WindClan and ThunderClan merge, he begins to realize that there are cats present who should be dead; Silverstream, for example, and not only is she alive but she stands with ThunderClan. He hears murmurs that Mistyfoot and Stonefur are dead, killed by Tigerstar. Sandstorm stands beside Firestar as deputy; when Gorsepaw whispers to a ThunderClan apprentice and asks why Whitestorm isn't present, they stare at him blankly.

TigerClan arrives. Gorsepaw is shocked to see Bramblepaw following his father, and only then does he notice that Tawnypaw presses close to Brackenfur, her very first mentor.

The meeting plays out exactly like Gorsepaw remembers, despite the unfamiliar ranks. Firestar reveals the truth about Tigerstar. Tigerstar introduces Scourge and his BloodClan. Gorsepaw braces himself, waiting for the strike that will steal all nine of Tigerstar's lives at once.

He watches in horror as Scourge lands that strike on Firestar. The famous leader crumples to the ground and does not rise again. There is chaos; Tigerstar is furious. He snarls that it was his destiny to kill Firestar and no one else's. Scourge has stolen this from him.

Scourge decides that because Tigerstar is ungrateful for his help, their deal is no more. Five mornings from now the Clans will either leave the forest forever or they will die. It's the same deal that was offered before, but this time the forest does not have Firestar to lead them.

Tigerstar orders his Clan to return to camp but Leopardstar speaks up and says that TigerClan is no more; he lied to her about the crimes he committed and if one ShadowClan warriors steps foot onto RiverClan territory, they will die.

Furious, Tigerstar returns to ShadowClan. The other Clans return to their own camps, and a great sense of foreboding covers the forest.

Tallstar decides that without Firestar, the Clans stand no chance against BloodClan. They will find a new home. Gorsepaw knows that they can't give into Scourge's demands. He feels responsible for Firestar's death so he assumes his role; he convinces some other WindClan cats to travel to ThunderClan with him to speak to Sandstorm.

Sandstorm is too furious to grieve the loss of her mate. She doesn't care who stands beside her, she doesn't care if she is the only warrior who will fight, she is going to meet Scourge in five days and she is going to avenge her mate, and then she's going to kill Tigerstar, too.

ThunderClan rallies around her. Gorsepaw and his Clanmates promise to be there as well. That leaves RiverClan and ShadowClan; ThunderClan is harboring Silverstream after rescuing her and her kits from Bonehill. Silverstream volunteers to visit Leopardstar and strike a new allegiance. That just leaves Tigerstar and ShadowClan.

Sandstorm looks at Gorsepaw and says that she will visit ShadowClan as long as he comes with her. Gorsepaw is caught off guard by her request but he agrees to it.

They, along with a few others, go to ShadowClan. Gorsepaw doesn't know what they can possibly say to Tigerstar to convince him to ally with them, but in the end it doesn't matter; Blackfoot and the rest of ShadowClan chased him out. When Sandstorm asks if ShadowClan will join LionClan, he agrees to it.

The battle takes place. Sandstorm kills Scourge. As BloodClan flees, Gorsepaw suddenly notices Tigerstar weaving through the crowd towards Sandstorm, his claws glistening.

Gorsepaw thinks about how Tigerstar held him down and forced WindClan to watch as he killed him. He thinks about a future that doesn't exist now, where Tigerstar and Firestar battle one more time. He reacts almost without thought; he tackles Tigerstar. For a split second he has the advantage of surprise on his side and he uses it to find Tigerstar's jugular and he bites.

He doesn't know what he'll do when Tigerstar comes back to his body but if he's managed to steal even one of his lives then Gorsepaw has avenged himself.

Tigerstar never rises. The Clans are shocked; Gorsepaw knows his bite didn't have the power to kill Tigerstar nine times. That's when Runningnose appears and admits that StarClan never granted Tigerstar nine lives; that's the reason he went hunting for BloodClan.

Scourge is dead. Tigerstar is dead. The Clans won.

That night, Tallstar gives Gorsepaw his warrior name: Gorsefire.

Gorsefire sits vigil that night and thinks. No matter what he does or doesn't do, it seems like he won't be able to protect the future. Firestar and Onewhisker are both dead. Sandstorm will lead ThunderClan. Who knows about ShadowClan or RiverClan or even WindClan. With that in mind, Gorsefire decides to honor his namesake and live without fear of the future. Maybe he can even help build a better future.

The next morning Gorsefire is relieved of his vigil. He's halfway to the warriors' den when Mudclaw sounds an alarm. Gorsefire panics until Mudclaw brings Sandstorm - Sandstar - into camp. She asks to speak with Gorsefire.

Once they're alone, Sandstar admits that Firestar told her everything about Gorsefire's situation before he died. She doesn't want to know the future of ThunderClan or the fate of the forest; she only wants to know what her own future was supposed to hold.

Gorsefire understands. He tells her almost everything, leaving out the journey to find SkyClan. He tells her that she became one of the most respected warriors in ThunderClan, and she trained many apprentices, and she had two daughters named Leafpool and Squirrelflight, and she grew old with Firestar for as long as any leader and mate are allowed to.

And finally, Sandstar can grieve. She thanks Gorsefire and before she returns to her own Clan, she tells him that he will always have an ally in her.

Time goes on. Gorsefire becomes something of a legend; as an apprentice he killed Tigerstar and saved Sandstar's life. When Mudclaw dies in a pointless border skirmish, Gorsefire has just finished training his first apprentice.

No one has any objections when Tallstar makes Gorsefire his deputy.

And when Tallstar passes away by the lake, no one objects when Gorsefire steps up as WindClan's rightful leader. And for many moons, there is peace.

[moss-path]

Another family tree in my AU. This one changes things up the most I think haha. You can check out more of my AU stuff here. 

See my notes below!

Making Wrenflight a tortie for genetics reasons.

Onestar is now Quickstar. I never really liked the very specific prefixes like One, Tall, Long. So a very WindClan name for him. 

Ashfoot is no longer related to Quickstar and Morningflower for avoiding incest reasons.

Morningflower and Robinwing are mates! Robinwing came to ThunderClan as a kit and never really got why having a relationship with a cat from another clan was such a big deal. Their first litter is Raven and Dust, and their second litter is Gorse, Stork, and Quail. Robin was visiting Morning too close to kitting and had the second litter in WindClan. Storkkit, Quailkit, and Robinwing are all killed in the ShadowClan raid.

Whitetail and Tawnyfur are littermates.

Gorsepaw lives and becomes Gorsefire! He has kits with Tawnyfur.

When flees ThunderClan, he stays with Barley until Fireheart and Graystripe go to bring WindClan back. When they return, Raven stays in WindClan with his mother and little brother. He then becomes Barkface’s apprentice and earns the name Ravencall as a medicine cat.

Ferncloud will be a little older to avoid the awful age gap between her and Dust. She is also a tortie for genetics reasons.

Breezepelt is now Breezeclaw.

The Quick and White litter is Heather, Gale, Kestrel, and Hare. 

Tawny and Gorse first have Emberfoot and Sunstrike, Buzzardkit comes later and dies young.

Not too many changes to the DustFern kids except Foxleap has a relationship with a RiverClan cat, Robinfang (one of the many Robinwings), and has Shadedapple and Foxnose, both die to the Kin.

Larkwing has Brookkit and Stripekit with Slightfoot.

Crouchfoot is now one of the SedgeEmber kids.

Fernstripe is Sunstrike’s kit to an unknown cat.

As she is now much older than (and related to) Larksong, Sparkstorm has her litter with Toadstep. Ferncloud, Toadstep, and Flickerkit die in the Dark Forest battle when a cat gets into the nursery. Whitewing fosters Finch and Flame while she’s grieving.

Whitewing and Birchfall have another litter at the time Brightheart canonically has Amber, Dew, and Snow. The litter is only Snowbush.

Tigerheart is now Goldenheart, after his grandmother. He never becomes leader of ShadowClan. Blackstar dies soon after Sol is chased out and Russetstar (Russetfur) is leader when the Kin take over. Tawnyclaw (Tawnypelt) becomes leader after she dies.

Dovewing and Ivypool are older than in canon. Their first gathering is the one after Hollyshine (Hollyleaf) disappears.

For now I’m keeping Rowankit’s original gray tabby description. I might end up changing Rowan to a tortie with Dovewing also a dilute tortie, inheriting the red gene from Whitewing, which is hidden beneath a dominant white. I do like the gray better tho...

Blossomfall and Ivypool are mates. Both have litters of kittens with loners and raise them together. Bristlefrost looks up to Stemleaf as an older brother figure.

The New Prophecy Rewrite / AU idea dump

I’m working on the allegiances as we speak. 

- Brambleclaw (Brambleheart in this au) is a freshly named warrior. Squirrelpaw is a freshly named apprentice. His intended mate is going to be Ferncloud. Her intended mate is going to be Shrewpaw (Shrewblaze in this au). 

- The prophecy cats are Brambleheart, Rowanclaw, Feathertail, and Gorsefire in this au, but the final line up ends up being Brambleheart, Squirrelpaw, Rowanclaw and Tawnyclaw (Tawnypelt), Feathertail and Hawkpaw, and Gorsefire and Crowpaw. 

- Graystripe never left RiverClan and instead stayed with Stormfur and Feathertail. 

- The Tribe is NOT a thing that happens. At all. There will be a different prophecy and a different group but I haven’t entirely thought up those ideas yet. 

- Hawkfrost and Mothwing have been aged down for this. They are being mentored by Feathertail (Hawkpaw’s mentor) and Vixenleap (Mothpaw’s mentor). 

- Various cats from different clans have been added to the alllegiances, including some cats that have died. Whitestorm is deputy, Deadfoot is alive, ect. Important mentions for Thunderclan are Lynxkit and Swiftpaw (now Lynxclaw and Swiftwing) Snowkit (Snowhawk). Lynxclaw and Swiftwing are both also Tigerclaw’s children and are Tawnyclaw and Brambleheart’s older siblings. Lynxclaw is Ferncloud’s mate in place of Dustpelt. 

- Important change is that Brackenfur is the oracle (Medicine cat) and Cinderpelt is a warrior. 

- The Dark Forest is still gonna be a thing but with some major amendments.

Warriors of StarClan Au

So it's a little creepy to me that kits in StarClan don't age. It's kind of cruel and weird for them to stay babies forever. So I came up with this concept while having insomnia last night.

When a kit goes to StarClan they do stay kits for as long as they choose. This gives them the opportunity to wait for family or simply stay kits for a bit longer. They would be mentored by multiple cats, normally close family or friends.

- During The Great Battle Brokenstar is faced with warriors Badgerfang, Marigold(kit)shade and Mint(kit)cloud.

-Brokenstar also meets his sisters Hope(kit)light and Wish(kit)cloud who tell him he's a disappointment.

- When Tiger(claw)star dies he meets Night(kit)feather and Mist(kit)heart who ask him why he did it and if it was worth it.

-Dandelion(kit)pelt and Juniper(kit)shine mentoring Flickerkit, their nephew.

-Gorsepaw is named Gorsefire

-When Ferncloud dies she learns that her kits where mentored by her deceased siblings, Tulip(kit)flower and Elder(kit)song.

-Shrewpaw is named Shrewleap, Larchkit is Larchflight and Hollykit becomes Hollystripe.

-When Bluestar dies she finally meets Mosskit, now Mossflower. She was mentored by Moonflower, Snowfur and Thrushpelt.

-Swiftpaw is named Swifttail after is half-brother and mentor

-Snowkit becomes a sort of half medicine cat and is mentored under Cloud spots, the first ThunderClan medicine cat. He communicates though tail flicks and paw gestures. Eventually he would be named Snowthorn after Brakenfur and is very close with his sister Mistle(kit)blaze.

-Hollyleaf is a protective older sister to Dandelionkit and Juniperkit

-Feathertail acts like a mother to Breezepelts unnamed siblings

-Badgerfang is a cool older brother to all the kits who join StarClan

-When they are older Patch(kit)stream, Petal(kit)fall and Larch(kit)song visit their mother at the border of The Dark Forest. It's the one and only meeting they have.

-Crookedstar is shocked and overjoyed when he meets his mate and kits in StarClan. Willowkit and Minnowkit choose to age at this point ad Crookedstar gets the chance to watch his daughters grow up. Willowkit becomes Willowstorm and Minnowkit becomes Minnowheart.

[sapphic-murder-cats]

Thinkin about...an au where Tigerclawstar is way more of a threat than in the actual series (and he also doesn’t immediately get murdered by Scourge) and Starclan goes “oh shit what do we do” and the og clan leaders go “fuck it” and reincarnate themselves to help save the clans.

Fireheart is 100% Thunderstar’s reincarnation. You cannot tell me otherwise.

Silverstream is Riverstar’s reincarnation!! She survives past childbirth in this.

Ravenpaw is Shadowstar’s reincarnation!!! Shadowstar knew that Shadownclan would become corrupted so she decided that Thunderclan would be a safer place for her to go. She realized how wrong she was later. Ravenpaw still vibes with Barley but comes back to help everyone defeat Tigerclawstar and Scourge and receives the name Ravenshadow.

Gorsepaw is Windstar’s reincarnation!!!!!! He does not die also in this au because fuck that. He receives the name Gorsefire after Fireheart.

Graywing I think would definitely reincarnate. I’m undecided though on who exactly? I think Graystripe would make sense but I’m not sure.

And Skystar...god idk. He’d probably be hella reluctant to do it because he’s an ass. Maybe he wouldn’t do it at all!!! Or maybe he would? If he did I think he’d reincarnate as Blackfootstar.

Feel free to ask questions about this au!!! And also if anyone wants to suggest ideas for it that’d be great!!!! I just think it’d be really funky if they did that. Also I have...no idea how Warrior cats reincarnation works but we’re just gonna go with the idea that like once the clan leaders finish helping they can just yeet back up to Starclan no questions asked and everyone who was reincarnated is ok and good.

A Bittersweet Reunion

Alright so this is an AU I made with a friend where Swiftpaw lived and joined ShadowClan. Also Badgerfang is alive (along with Gorsepaw) and Swiftpaw and Badgerfang become mates. Swiftpaw becomes Swiftstorm and they’re just happy and gay <3. This isn’t set during any specific time, sometime after The Darkest Hour and Firestar’s Quest. Hope y’all enjoy this as much as I did writing it! 

Note: I didn’t write this on Tumblr, I’ve just copy and pasted it from a google doc so if the formatting is a bit weird that’s why.

A large brown dog snarled in front of him. It had a dangerous gleam in its eye, something unlike Swiftpaw had ever seen. The white and black tom had been attacked heavily already. Blood dripped down his face, back, and legs. Behind him lay Brightpaw. She could barely breathe. The tom had tears in his eyes.

‘If only I had just waited. If only I wasn’t so selfish. This is all my fault…’

Swiftpaw stood tall and bared his teeth. A hiss left his throat.

”I’m sorry Brightpaw. I never should’ve brought you here.”

“What are you doing Swiftpaw?”

“Saving you.”

Swiftpaw then leaped forward…

Swiftstorm was pulled out of his memories by someone calling his name. He picked his head up to see it was Badgerfang. The heavily scarred tom was partially hiding in the bushes surrounding Four Trees. He wasn’t used to being around so many cats, especially not after he had left his birth Clan.

Badgerfang was about to say something before he looked away from Swiftstorm as he heard pawsteps getting closer and closer to their location. The half-blind tom looked up and was shocked at who stood in front of him. It was Longtail...

"Swiftpaw?"

Swiftstorm sat silent for a moment before answering his former mentor.

"I'm Swiftstorm now."

Longtail looked from Badgerfang to Swiftstorm, to Swiftstorm to Badgerfang, putting the pieces together slowly.

"Did you join ShadowClan?" The ThunderClan warrior spit the Clan's name out harshly.

The white and black tom nodded weakly. He felt Badgerfang press against his side.

"So you've been alive, this entire time in ShadowClan and didn't think to say anything!"

Swiftstorm stayed quiet. Once Longtail realized his former apprentice wouldn't say anything he continued.

"Do you know how much Goldenflower has grieved over you? How much Brightheart has grieved over you! How much I've grieved over you! Everyone has mourned you yet it was all a lie." Longtail was forced to stop as he stifled a sob.

Swiftshadow picked his head up and met Longtail's eyes. One yellow eye met two green ones as the two warriors stayed silent. The white and black tom was about to say something when he heard two familiar voices. The voices stopped dead as Swiftstorm looked to see where they were coming from.

"Brightheart, Cloudtail." He tried not to have his voice waver. His memories of jealousy, betrayal, arrogance, and fear were so vivid he could smell the blood.

Brightheart gasped. She looked shocked to see him after all this time. Next to her was Cloudtail. He looked even more surprised than Brightheart, definitely more scared. Swiftstorm's gaze couldn't stay still. His eyes followed all of the scars the littered the ginger and white tabby's pelt. Their pelts matched that way, plus they both had large amounts of white. The biggest difference, or the most noticeable one at least, was that she was missing one of her eyes and that side of her face.

Swiftstorm knew that the dogs had done some serious damage, they were both extremely bloody towards the end of it but seeing her scars for the first time really put in perspective for him. They shouldn't have survived that day. Swiftstorm saw that Brightheart's face had the same expression as he did. Even though his injuries weren't as severe as hers, the sheer amount of small scars and bite marks that it registered for her as well that it was a miracle by StarClan that they survived.

"How do you know my name?" Brightheart stammered; trying to delay the inevitable.

"Badgerfang has kept me up to date on current events." Swiftstorm looked at his mate. Just by looking at the larger tom he was able to calm down slightly.

Swiftstorm took a deep breath and continued.

"I'm sorry for not returning to ThunderClan. I managed to crawl away from the dogs but I somehow headed directly for the ShadowClan border. Badgerfang found me and brought me back to his camp, Runningnose managed to save my life. And well, Tigerstar didn't want me leaving because he wanted an extra warrior. Overtime I just grew more and more adjusted to living in ShadowClan-" He paused and looked at Badgerfang. "-I just couldn't imagine living without him."

Badgerfang was a blushing, smiling mess. Swiftstorm looked back to his former Clanmates and bowed his head. "I'm sorry. I know I should've said something but I wasn't able to for so long, and I just got scared. I'm so sorry."

Swiftstorm felt tears fall down his face. He felt Badgerfang press against his side. The patched tom felt another cat push their nose into the fur on the back of his neck.  He recognized Longtail's scent. Another cat pushed their face into his shoulder. It was Brightheart.

"Thank you, Swiftstorm. I'm afraid I might've been a bit too harsh though. You had your own reasons for not coming back. I should've tried to see things from your perspective but I was angry and I felt betrayed. I'm sorry too."

Swiftstorm picked his head up. And then he laughed. Longtail laughed too.

"I've missed you." The white and black tom said it so earnestly it caused Longtail to shed a few tears.

"Me too." The tabby tom whispered.

That's when the white and black tom remembered that Cloudtail was still there. The fluffy, white tom hadn't said a word since he saw his former Clanmate. The half-blind tom walked towards him.

"I'm sorry Cloudtail. I should've treated you better. I hope you can forgive me."

Cloudtail shook his head and bumped his head against Swiftstorms'. "It's fine. It's okay."

The two toms purred away their past anger towards one another. Cloudtail pulled away.

"Well It's nice knowing that you've been okay this whole time. I'd like to go see some of my other friends though. Bye guys."

And with that the pure white tom trotted away to a group of WindClan and RiverClan warriors. Swiftstorm turned back around so he was facing Longtail, Brightheart, and Badgerfang again.

"Brightheart, Longtail, It's been nice seeing you two again. Before we part ways, did Goldenflower come?"

Longtail shook his head. "No."

"We'll tell her to come next time! Firestar wouldn't object at all if she asked to come!" The ginger and white tabby added quickly.

Swiftstorm nodded. "Well, I hope to see you again at the next gathering."

The heavily scarred tom joined Badgerfang and the two padded close to the base of the Great Rock, knowing the gathering would start soon. His reunion with Longtail, Brightheart and Cloudtail, had lasted longer than expected. Swiftstorm's mate turned his head so the patched tom followed his gaze. Just then, a small pure white she-cat pushed herself through the crowd which got her next to Badgerfang. She padded forward until she stood in front of the two toms.

"Hey there." She said. "I don't think we've ever met. Not formally at least. I'm Whitetail, and I'm here to talk to you on behalf of my friend Gorsefire."

I COMPLETELY forgot to add Gorsefire (Gorsepaw) to my PO3 AU allegiances lol. He's there now I'm a dumby.

[canon-notcanon-warriorcats]

AU: Gorsepaw lives and joins Crowpaw on the journey to see Midnight. (Rowanclaw joins Tawnypelt) Problem: I can’t figure out what Gorse’s warrior name should be. I’m thinking Gorseheart, after Fireheart. But idk.

[katiek101]

One night, while he is watching WindClan from above, he notices Nightpaw and- He just knows- That she was meant for him. After that, he can not stand to watch over his Clan anymore. He can not stand to feel as if he failed the Clan he loved but never led, or the she-cat he would have loved but never met.

— Gorsepaw (five truths)

#5T #Gorsepaw #Gorsefire #Nightcloud #lots of references to my Gorsefire AU! #one-shot

[sapphic-murder-cats]

Warriors au where Gorsepaw lives and becomes leader of Windclan instead of Onestar or after Onestar. He shows up at a gathering as leader and Firestar starts sobbing because the little kit he had to carry across the Thunderpath all those years ago is now a leader, and he couldn’t be prouder of him.

Bonus points if Gorsepaw’s Warrior name is Gorsefire:

#JUST #give me juice #more bonus points if Badgerfang survives #and becomes leader of Shadowclan #hMshshhs my heart #mod speaks
