-I've decided to change canon up and say that Dovewing was pregnant during the battle. Her kits actually started coming early, and the only one who knew about the kits were Jayfeather- who also knew who the true father was. She managed to get Jayfeather when she felt her kits coming, and Jayfeather had two warriors, one RiverClan and one ThunderClan, guard them while she gave birth. She died due to birth complications, along with one of the kits. Jayfeather was wracked with grief, but he didn't have time to think as his guards were both slaughter by Dark Forest cats. He fought to his death defending those kits, who were later found by a survivor search patrol nearly starved to death.

-Bumblestripe and Tigerheart both took care of the kits as their own, uncertain who the true father was but deciding to give the kits the best life they could. One was a light brown tabby she-kit with yellow-amber eyes that Tigerheart named Beekit. Bumblestripe named the other kit, a dark gray tom-kit with blue eyes, Thrushkit. They named the dead kit they found with Dovewing's body Jaykit, after Jayfeather who died guarding her. As a family, the four of them are all very, very close.

-While Tigerheart remained mateless for the rest of his life, Bumblestripe ends up growing close to Hazeltail. Hazeltail was more stable than the other cats, having her mother, Daisy, and her nephew, Molepaw, still alive. She trains Molepaw, who eventually becomes her official apprentice. Bumblestripe admires her ability to keep going on, and eventually suggests she should be leader. It's a long process, but eventually everyone agrees, making her Hazelstar.

-She appoints Mallownose as deputy, as he's always quick to argue and quick to suspect. He's alert and attentive, which she thinks would be good to counter her own more calm and patient personality that she's adopted when dealing with the survivors.

-Willowshine is the only medicine cat left, but Brightheart does know have herbal knowledge. Brightheart, despite being devastated at the loss of the majority of her family, does still have Cloudtail, who encourages her to keep going. She becomes sort of a secondary medicine cat, and like everyone's mentor. Having learned how to continue on with serious, life-changing injuries, she teaches everyone how to deal with them and to keep trying.

-Hazelstar and Willowshine (who grow very close together, becoming good friends) both agree that they should revive an age-old tradition long forgotten by most of the surviving warriors after receiving a sign from StarClan. They decide that all apprentices should visit the Moonpool at least once during their apprenticeship or after they receive their warrior name. They do this to make sure no young cats stray towards the Dark Forest and to remind cats their ancestors are still there.

-Webfoot is the only elder left, but he seems to work twice as hard as everyone else being one of the least injured. He also makes sure that the apprentices, Molepaw and Larkpaw (who become very great friends, practically brothers, as the only apprentices), and the kits, Sparrowkit, Beekit and Thrushkit, are all entertained and happy. He grows very close to the apprentices, becoming a sort of father figure for them that they love dearly.

-Pinenose and Daisy grow close together as they stay permanent queens who not only look after the kits, but also the camp and the warriors as a whole. They help the medicine cats (Willowshine and Brightheart) out a majority of the time and spend a lot of time dedicated to making the camp look pretty and fashionable, just to boost morale.

-They decide to camp in the RiverClan camp, as that's the camp that was the least damaged. The WindClan cats end up sleeping outside the first few times, but end up adapting to sleeping inside dens. The ThunderClan cats have difficulty adapting to the thick undergrowth, but slowly learn to, as this is a time of adapting.

-At first, the cats hunt anywhere without borders, but they realize they need borders as rogues start encroaching on their territory. They chase them out, and decide to have at least one border patrol go out that covers most of RiverClan territory and some of ShadowClan and WindClan. The rogues end up staying within ThunderClan's camp. The clan cats and rogues agree that they can go into each other's territory only for herbs, with permission from leaders of course.

-One of the rogues join the clan cats, and get the name Spottail. She's a white she-cat with green eyes and black spots on her tail and legs. She ends up becoming mates with Beetlewhisker, a former Dark Forest trainee who feels somewhat outcasted and different like her.

-The clan decides to name themselves, uninspiringly, The Clan, as that's what they'd been calling themselves for so long. The rogues settle on being called The Rogues, as it doesn't really bother them.

-The cats do eventually find SkyClan, who is content to stay within the gorge until Darktail attacks. Then, they move to the lake territory. SkyClan stays together, and takes over a portion of ThunderClan's territory and WindClan's territory as The Rogues readjust to half of ThunderClans territory and ShadowClan's territory. SkyClan eventually renames themselves to The Sky. StarClan's name is eventually changed to The Stars.

-The three groups live in a surprisingly amount of harmony, most likely due to the fact that they're all survivors in a way. The Clan is what's left from the Great Battle, The Rogues have always been surviving, barely making it on their own, and The Sky had to live through Darktail.

-The Clan and The Sky adapt to a more loose clanlife, while The Rogues adapt to clanlife itself, some even taking on their naming system and their beliefs. They all agree to have gatherings on the island, and the medicine cats- after one is appointed in The Rogues- agree to have half-moon meetings at the Moonpool.

-When Darktail ends up finding the lake, he is disappointed to find that clanlife as he knew it has changed. He debates attempting to ruin what's left of it, but when The Sky realizes he's there, they kick him out pronto. That makes him upset, of course, so he begins to rally The Kin and make them stronger, growing his numbers, waiting for his day to strike The Clan, The Rogues and The Sky.

ThunderClan survivors: Cinderheart, Leafpool, Thornclaw, Spiderleg, Daisy, Dewkit, Seedkit

ShadowClan survivors: Scorchfur, Rowanclaw, Dawnpelt, Olivenose, Kinkfur, Sparrowkit

WindClan survivors: Emberfoot, Nightcloud, Crouchpaw

RiverClan survivors: Reedwhisker, Heronpaw, Curlpaw, Havenkit

@10leftau I love this too much here ya go

Cinderheart is the first to crawl out of the wreckage after the dust finally settles, and is horrified to see almost her entire family was killed. Only Seedkit made it out alive. This caused a serious blow to her mental health but knew she had to pull it together for her clanmates. She’s the one who rounds up the survivors of the other clans and starts putting them together again, knowing the only way to survive. She is the driving force of the survivors’ recovery and later becomes Cinderstar, after everyone agrees she’d be the best choice. Sadly she and Lionblaze never had to have a family, but she helps raise Seedkit as best as she can. She takes no other mate after him.

Leafpool, being the only surviving medicine cat, had a large burden on her back alongside her grief. She lost everything she loved; her parents, her sister, her kits, the cat she once loved… for a while it was too much to bear and she locked herself in the medicine den, refusing to eat or speak to anyone. It was actually Nightcloud who helped her through this. The Windclan cat had lost all of her clan as well as her mate, and knowing her actions helped shaped Breezepelt into the monster he was hurt her more than words could express. Nightcloud had lost all hatred for Leafpool, and they shared their grief and healed together. They are often seen sharing tongues in silence, but simply being near each other calms them. Nightcloud was also chosen as the new deputy instead of either Rowanclaw or Reedwhisker, and is extremely grateful for Cinderstar having such trust in her.

Thornclaw is pretty badly scarred up after the battle. He was the one who found the nursery was overrun, with Brightheart fighting so many cats at once after Ferncloud and Sorreltail fell. She begged him to save her kits, before disappearing under a pile of fur and blood. He only managed to save Dewkit, who he hid in the dirtplace before running back to help his littermate. Brightheart was already gone by the time he got back, but he managed to save Daisy and Seedkit at the cost of his eye and foot. He worked tirelessly to secure the nursery once the cats came together in Thunderclan’s camp, vowing to never let another queen be harmed again. Once Cinderstar got her nine lives, he saw his clan was in safe paws with her, and finally retires as the first elder after the Great Battle.

Spiderleg only realized how many regrets he had when he found Rosepetal and Toadstep’s bodies. The two had died together, fighting side by side till the end. It hurt him how he was absent in their lives- for what? Because he was a coward? Too embarrassed that he couldn’t connect with his kits, and now he never would. He lost everything that night, and found himself weeping at Daisy’s paws, begging for forgiveness. He apologized for everything he had done to hurt her, and their kits.

Daisy refused to forgive him at first; the heartbreak of losing all five of her kits at once, as well as being unable to protect her fellow queens, made her bitter, and more than once she considered leaving the clans and the memories that haunted her there. But, as the remains of the clans came together, she and Spiderleg started to become close again as they truly get to know and love each other.

Rowanclaw had a lot of trouble keeping things together after his clan was decimated in the Great Battle. Being an actual deputy, his clanmates sided with him, as well as Emberfoot from Windclan. Him and Reedwhisker were in a battle of who would be in charge, as the two had been next in line for leadership. But while the pair fought over who would be the successor, Cinderheart was focusing on the wellbeing of their cats. In the end, every cat swayed to choose her instead of them. Rowanclaw was angry, and was even more enraged when she chose Nightcloud as her deputy. However, for the sake of his remaining clanmates, he kept his temper under wraps, but it would soon boil to an unbearable degree…

Dawnpelt was horrified to find everyone she loved dead, and became physically aggressive to any cat to approach her. She had managed to protect Kinkfur and her only surviving kit from the Dark Forest cats till they had retreated. The three of them were found at the barn a day or so after the battle by a patrol headed by Daisy. The patrol was going to see if they could convince Smoky to share some prey with them, as so many cats were weak and needed food to recover. They found the barncat being chased away by Dawnpelt. She had taken over the barn as her new territory. It took much convincing and they had to bring Rowanclaw to her. The three were taken in with the other survivors. Dawnpelt became a strong supporter of her father, mostly because he was the only relative she had left, and she wanted to see Shadowclan be the sole survivor of the clans. She sided with her father in her anger, becoming his strongest ally among the cats. She later gives birth to Scorchfur’s kits, the first kits born after the Great Battle- Juniperkit, Sleekkit and Tawnykit.

Scorchfur was what most cats would call an brat; he downright refused to cooperate with any Thunderclan cats at all. He only started to warm up to them when he saw Dewkit and Seedkit. He may have hated the ‘pompous Thunderclan mouse brains’ but he could never bring himself to dislike the kits. At first he remained withdrawn to interacting solely with his clanmates, occasionally reaching out to interact with the kits from the other clans. This was when he started having affections toward Dawnpelt. In time, however, he also found a friend in Emberfoot of Windclan. He respected the warrior for being a strong and swift hunter, but what truly sparked their friendship was when Emberfoot sided with Rowanclaw as the new leader. He became Crouchpaw’s new mentor, which also helped him learn how to be more mature as he affectionately considered the tom as a little brother.

Emberfoot is more cool and level-headed than his Shadowclan friend, but was also very badly injured in the Great Battle, losing an eye and having a good chunk of his shoulder ripped out. He sided with Rowanclaw because he thought that Reedwhisker was a bit too pompous and had always assumed that the black tom had only gotten his position because of his mother Mistystar. He wholeheartedly agreed with Cinderstar being leader, knowing she was most likely the best hope for the clan. He constantly teased his friend for being a hotheaded idiot, but it was a mutual joke among them. He also soon started crushing on Olivenose, and it became the main point of teasing for Scorchfur.

Olivenose had a lot of guilt before the Great Battle. She blamed herself for the death of Flametail, and being a survivor alongside Dawnpelt made it even more burning. During the Great Battle she became panicked and ran from the battle, leaving Ferretclaw and Tallpoppy behind in a fight. She adds their deaths to her list of guilt. She refuses to talk to anyone, becoming a shell of her happy self before the Great Battle. She communicates primarily through facial expressions and body language.

Reedwhisker was absolutely heartbroken at the lost of his mother and clan. He was left alone with two apprentices and a kit, trying to hold himself together. He tried to get some sort of semblance of control over his life by trying to become the leader. He needed to be strong for these cats, he thought, and the only way he knew how was to be like his mother, the strongest cat he knew. He had support of his clanmates, Emberfoot from Windclan, and surprisingly Daisy and Thornclaw from Thunderclan. He and Rowanclaw would often almost come to blows over how they would lead; Rowanclaw would focus more on protecting their borders and simply building up strength (as well as wanting everyone to move to Shadowclan’s old camp) while Reedwhisker wanted to find more cats to boost up their population. In the end he saw how Cinderstar truly cared about her clanmates first and foremost, so he conceded that she was the better leader.

Kinkfur was the only remaining queen that could still nurse kits, and luckily managed to escape with at least one of her kits. She latched onto Dewkit and Seedkit as soon as she saw them, to the point she physically tried to take them from the warriors who brought them to her. She adopted them as her own and took in Havenkit once she was found as well.

Sparrowkit was at first kind of grumpy that he had to share his mother’s affections, as well as sad that he lost his littermates. But he soon became very close with Dewkit and Seedkit, considering them his siblings. They were thick as thieves and were always found together, whether it was napping to pestering Leafpool for honey, to finding nettles to put in the warriors’ nests.

Dewkit was the only surviving kit of Brightheart and Cloudtail. The scent of the dirtplace hid his scent very well, and no one found him till Thornclaw came back for him. He formed a close bond with Sparrowkit and Seedkit, seeing his siblings in them. He misses his mother a lot, and often asks Thornclaw to tell him stories about her and his father, which the golden tom happily agrees.

Seedkit was the most badly scarred of the kits; she was forcefully removed from the nest after Sorreltail died and swatted around in the chaos of the cats in the nursery. She watched her sister Lilykit get tossed around like a moss ball before she lost consciousness. They were actually prepared to bury her before she woke up and was rushed to Leafpool. She is very skittish and easily frightened, and Dewkit and Sparrowkit are very protective of their adopted sibling.

Havenkit was the only Riverclan kit to survive the Great Battle, and it was completely by blind luck. Multiple Dark Forest cats had forced their way into the nursery. While her littermates scattered in panic and Duskfur fought the best she could, Havenkit was frozen in her nest. A sharp kick from the battle sent the reed nest shooting backwards through the hole where the invaders had broken in, and she landed in the river and was rushed downstream. She stayed there for two days, floating in the lake. By the time she drifted towards the gathering island, she was extremely weak. Curlpaw swam out to her and pushed the nest back to shore. She was given some chewed up fish, but without Kinkfur’s milk she would’ve perished.

Crouchpaw was a very young apprentice during the Great Battle, and his mentor Gorsetail didn’t want him in the combat. She ordered him to assist Kestrelflight alongside Sunstrike while the Windclan medicine cat ran to where he was needed. He was so angry that he wasn’t going to be able to fight, but soon realised why his mentor did that as he saw the bodies pile up. The trio met up with Breezepelt in the middle of the chaos, who said there were cats in trouble near Shadowclan. They followed him, but were met with a swarm of Dark Forest cats. The last thing he saw was Breezepelt turn and bare his teeth at his clanmates, before it became a mess of fur and blood. He barely pulled through from his injuries and woke up under Leafpool’s care. Both Sunstrike and Kestrelflight perished.

Heronpaw and Curlpaw just barely managed to survive together by retreating to the gathering island and hiding in the trees. They spent a few days there, trying to recover when they found and rescued Havenkit, then reunited with Reedwhisker. They made their own little clan, “Greenclan” as the apprentices called it, and tried to survive together, but Havenkit got weaker and weaker without a queen to nurse her. They initially attempted to make it to twolegplace, then made a detour to Thunderclan’s camp in an attempt to find traveling herbs (Curlpaw remembered Mothwing describing some) and walked right into the middle of the survivors. They are very close friends and have recently started to open up to Crouchpaw as well, trying to get him to interact with them.

Other facts

Cinderheart’s whole ‘Cinderpelt’ deal will be more useful in this au, rather than just being forgotten just before the battle

Heronpaw’s mentor is Reedwhisker, Curlpaw’s mentor is Olivenose

Havenkit becomes Leafpool’s next apprentice after she shows a faint connection with Starclan

Crouchpaw is kind of uncomfortable around Spiderleg, due to his black pelt. One time he nearly tore his ear during a hunt because he thought he saw Breezepelt

Every warrior contributes in training the apprentices and everyone learns tricks from their original clans. 

The new clan is called Brightclan, after they found hope through the darkest of times. (Dewkit likes to think it is named after his mother.)

Floss survives her greencough thanks to Leafpool’s help, and eventually joins Brightclan because Smoky shows little to no care for her compared to how the clan did. She gives birth to his kits Frogkit and Fuzzykit.
