I was looking at some drawings of Thistleclaw and Whitekit and this came to my head. I hope it doesn't look too messy, I don't know, I think I added too much detail to the landscape.


For those who want to read my AU of Thistleclaw (alternate universe):

In this Thistle he is not bad, in fact he gets along well with Bluestar, however he sees that there is something "bad" in his new apprentice, Tigerpaw. As much as he tries to teach him the ways of being a warrior, his apprentice shows too much ambition and a joy for the suffering of other warriors and cats. Tigerpaw generally criticize his mentor as weak and too pious, Thistle does not know what to do at that point and does not believe that his apprentice is ready to be a warrior, with no more he is planning to tell the leader, Sunstar, that something is not right with his apprentice.

Now, I haven't read Bluestar's book, so I'm not sure when Snowfur dies and when Tigerstar becomes a Thistleclaw apprentice, so this is just how I imagine what will happen.

When Tigerpaw realizes that Thistleclaw does not plan to let him be a warrior soon he manages to set a trap and Snowfur is killed by a car chasing Shadowclan warriors.

At this point both Thistleclaw and Bluestar know something is wrong with Tigerpaw.

Tigerpaw is expelled from his clan, and a short time later Thistleclaw becomes deputy.

There are two possible things that can happen after:

1) A few days after becoming deputy, Thistleclaw mysteriously dies, near the edge with Shadowclan. Other queens have to take care of the kits of Bluestar who happens to become the new deputy.

2) Thistleclaw knows that his battle with his former apprentice is not over yet, he has constant nightmares where he sees Tigerpaw again and prepares him and the clan for the worst, scared that he now tries to attack his family as revenge ...
