While we're on the subject, how about: Mintkit, Stirkit, Hornetkit, Sweetkit, Dripkit, Woolkit, Railkit, Tenderkit, Bitterkit and Elatekit? I just wanna know like.... their warrior names or sm. Same with the apprentices. Sorry if it's a lot :(

another ask beat you to the kits literally just a moment ago lol

SO! ill make this post about the apprentices! always fun to talk about them! :)) or at the very least ill make it about the Gloryclan apprentices for this post, just because i fear the post would get crazy long if i did them all

and this bout to be a no holds barred since iv accepted ill never write out all my wc oc plot like i wanted to so im bout to fuckin deep dive especially on the main characters

starting with my wc ocs main character, Agonypaw. She shares her stories plot with Eveningpaw and Deckerpaw but she is the main main character of the three for sure.

Agonypaw is the granddaughter of the late leader of Gloryclan, Prismstar. A nobel and beloved leader that the clans treasured and still talk of to this day. Agonypaw's mother was an amazing warrior that they share stories of even now. Agonypaw has big shoes to fill and it kinda ways on her. She plagued with dreams of not being good enough to be apart of her family.

(REST UNDER THE CUT BECAUSE THIS ENDED UP TAKING WAY LONGER THAN EXCEPTED LOL THIS REALLY IS MOSTLY JUST AGONYPAW AND HER COUSINS BUT ONLY THROUGH AGONYPAWS POVE IN THEIR STORY AND ITS A LOT OOPS)

Then she meets Tranquilstorm, a warrior who is nearly a loner to their clanmates. She works alone, eats alone and fights alone. She doesn't speak to others and only put in enough work to warrant her place in the clan and never more.

Agonykit could put her paw on it but something about Tranquilstorm called to her and she begins doing everything in her power to get this senior warrior to notice her. And it goes poorly, Tranquilstorm barely gives her the time of day, until out of no where Tranquilstorm begins speaking to her, and not much longer after its announced Tranquilstorm was to be Agonypaw's mentor.

Agonypaw works hard to be a good apprentice for Tranquilstorm, struggling with some eye issues that runs in her family with members going blind rather young. When Agonypaw expresses to Tranquilstorm how she feels inadequate both as her apprentice and as Prismstars granddaughter, Tranquilstorm straight up tells her not to be concerned about that, that thinking she needed to be like prismstar was nonsense and that she needed to be her own cat. It seems like such a simple thing to say but it meant so much to agonypaw to hear.

A few moons into her apprenticeship and Agonypaw begins to work beside her cousins and realizes how far behind she is to them between Awepaw who has no interest in working hard and humidpaw who was a big klutz, she was no where near their level. During hunts they catch way more than her and during training they beat her easily and she ends up accidently putting a cut in Humidpaw's ear. Which she feels bad about but Awepaw assures her that these things happen. Which makes Tranquilstorm act weird and tell Awepaw to not accept forgiveness for Humidpaw.

Many of their clanmates start commenting on how well Humid and Awe are coming along and how prismstar would have been so proud, often forgetting to include agonypaw in on these comments or lumping her in with pity.

Tranquil tries to reassure her that she doesnt need to compare herself to her cousins and that she's growing at her own rate. Agonypaw tries to take in these words but is finding it harder to accept her own progress

Bittertounge, recent parent to his first litter and mentor to Humidpaw is found dead deep in the marshes. Found by Humidpaw, Awepaw and Sorrowcloud. the cats raise suspicious on what happened as Bittertounge didnt smell of any predators and they could take from the body was that it was probably killed by another cat. Agonypaw finds Bogshadow in the medicine cats den with Tranquilstorm. Tranquilstorm was there for twisting their paw while Bogshadow was there with a bloody paw pad.

The cats are on high alert for the next month as they have no idea if this was a rouge cat, another clans member or even one of their own.

Agonypaw is helping out Coastdance, who many made comments how she didnt even seem sad about the lose of her mate.

During this clean up Coastdane begins to reminisce , saying Bittertounge was the last apprentice Prismstar had before passing away, and that "Funny enough" where they found Bittertounges body was where Prismstar lost his final life. Coastdance claims she's been trying to be strong for their kits and has a small breaks down over the lose of her husband before collecting herself and thanking Agonypaw for listening to her. Before she leaves she mentions that she new Prismstar pretty well before he passed, and that Agonypaw shouldn't worry about how far behind she might feel about her training because she reminded Coastdance of Prismstar just as much as her cousins.

Agonypaw and Tranquilstorm later patrol not far from where bittertounge was found dead, to try and see if theres any trace of the killer around. Agonypaw mentions what Coastdance said and says she still worries if she's living up to the image everyone has of her or if she'll just end up the failure of the gene pool.

Tranquilstorm once again tells her that she shouldn't want to be like prismstar, that even prismstar made mistakes, and wasnt a perfect cat. He even made enemies in his time and that their clan idolized him to a fault at times. And that no matter what they think of her, she should see herself as herself, not prismstars granddaughter. and that "no matter who you end up being ill will watch you"

in this moment Agonypaw sits close to Tranquilstorm in this foggy clearing looking out over the deep thick mud that claimed multiple lives and just thinks about how lucky she is to have Tranquilstorm by her side.

Not long after Awepaw and Humidpaw have been taken on a trip to the Cluster, and on their return Gloryclan leader Revelstar tells them that the three of them will take their warrior assessment in a few days. this comes to a surprise of agonypaw who knows her cousins have been apprenticesa little longer than her and that she didn’t know she was so close to being made a warrior. revelstar claims that tranquilstorm personally said she thought agonypaw was ready, and revelstar mummers that it was the best as they need as many warriors as they can get now

The morning of the assesement Revelstar, Bogshadow and Tranquilstorm join togeather to watch over the apprentices. Agonypaw feels uneasy around Bogshadow remembering how he was in the Healers Pit the day Bittertounge died.

Agonypaw none the less works through her assessment trying hard to not mess it up. Doing relatively well, but a bit stiff knowing she was being watched. It all goes down hill however when she goes in to fish out of a crab hole like she had been taught, only to be greeted by a snake that launches out and sinks its fangs into her face.

Its a swirl of panic as the snake attacks, the last thing she's see's before falling unconscious is the bits of half eaten shellfish around the snakes den and Tranquilstorm rushing to her side.

a bit of a skip later, Agonypaw is stuck in the medicine cat's den as they keep a look out for the infection on her left eye. She has lost the eye to the snake bite and her ruined her assessment. Agonypaw ask what this all meant for her. Tranquilstorm is honest and says she isnt sure, knowing that at the least her becoming a warrior would be put off for awhile. Agonypaw quivers is a fit of sadness in her nest, tranquilstorm twitches a bit before hesitantly laying next to agonypaw where their pelts touch

A storm arrives a few nights later, and another tragedy strikes as one of the barriers around the camp fails and water floods the camp, bringing in lose wet mud into the dens of the camp. The mud flows into the nursery and Medicine cats den. Agonypaw is guided out by the medicine cats who watch in horror as Surlytusk pushes out of the nursery with her kit and one of melancholyspots. Melancholyspot, still stuck inside with her other kit yells for help, answered immediately by Awepaw and Humidpaw. Agonypaw is frozen in fear as her cousins tread through the mud to the nursing cat. Bogshadow and Benevolancelight begin to try to push and block more mud from entering the nursery.

In a flash the two apprentices rush out the kit and parent. Things seem well until the mud pushes Benevolancelight under and their crushed by the mud.

It was too late for the warrior as she was lost to the mudslide.

When the rain finally stopped and everyone was safe, they try to help clean up the medicine cats den and nursery. They also dig up the warriors body to hold their vigil.

Humidpaw and Awepaw have lost their mother and are in shambles. And other older warriors work to reinstall the barrier meant to keep the water and mud flow away from camp, questioning how this could have happened. Questioning if it could also be whoever took out bittertounge.

A few shot days later to give the cats time to grieve, Revelstar holds a small ceremony to not only celebrate the life of Benevolence star but to give her kits their warrior names in her honor as well as for the bravery they showed during the mud slide. Humidfur and Aweshine, Aweshine being named after Prismstars warrior name, Prismshine.

agonypaw is watching this all happen as if its so slow and yet so fast. Everything was just happening as she stood here in the rain listening to everyone call out her cousins new names. agonypaw begins to back away from everyone, her mind racing.awe was named after their grandfather, this whole time everyone has been looking at Aweshine as the prodigal child and not agonypaw, even though she worked so hard she fell so far behind and she had been so full of herself this whole time for nothing.

agonypaw leaves camp and walked out into the marsh turning to a full sprint until she is at the edge of their territory and at the bank of the swollen river. Looking down at her reflection, distorted by rain droplets. tranquilstorms reflection appears next to hers the swirl of a light storm cloud outlines her dark figure and two icy blue eyes look right at her, Tranquilstorm

Agonypaw speaks up, she is quickly shaking with emotions as she tells tranquilstorm how shes feels. How she’s so sorry that tranquilstorm has to be her mentor, how she feels like his disappointed everyone even her who never saw her as just prismstars decendent. How even though tranquilstorm recommended her as a warrior that she got her test early she failed so bad she was pushed back from being a warrior for longer than she would have been originally. Tranquilstorm having to put in so much last minute work to help her with her eye. How that when she heaerd awepaw-aweshine get her name. She heard that they gave her their leader prismstars old warrior name, prismshine. She realized then how much she has idolized herself. She thought everyone was looking at her as prismstars great granddaughter, pridebriars daughter, this chain in a line of great warriors. But no one was looking at her like that, not as much as they did awepaw. She was so self centered she didn’t even realize awepaw was doing so well to have this attention.

tranquilsstorm then tells agonypaw the day agonypaw was made her apprentice her life changed. She had a new goal in life. Agonypaw being her apprentice has been the best moons of her life. And that she knows she will one day make a great warrior weather or not she is prismstars blood.

On their way back to camp they find a loner by the banks of the river, and Tranquilstorm spooks him off. Agonypaw questions if they may have been the cat to do all the horrible things recently, shuddering at the thought. For awhile Tranquil doesn't reply, then she tells agonypaw that she doesn’t think there is an actual rouge problem in their territory. Tranquilstorm says that she thinks theres a beast in the woods, and that its whats been causing the problems. She claims to have overheard some honorclan cats talking about ally cats mentioning a beast named ‘Grendel’ that has chosen to curse their home.

Agonypaw vaugely knows the Name Grendel as the name of the beast that hunted their marshes long ago, and their first leader Glorystar fought.

agonypaw ask why she hasnt told revelstar. Tranquilstorm tells her that she overheard it at the last gathering and has been afraid of telling revelstar. Perhaps she may sound crazy, or revelstar would attack the creature and get hurt. And for all she knows its just a rumor and doesn’t want cats to get worked up during this rain and flood

That night Agonypaw rolls in her nest thinking of this horrible shadow beast that plague their woods. She wants to tell someone, to try and help them understand and fix the problem, but thinks to how Tranquilstorm made her promise not to tell anyone.

however agonypaw mulls over the thoughts in her head and concludes. She wouldn’t break tranquilstorms promise and couldn’t keep her clan safe if she drove out the beast. She could prove herself worthy of everyones gaze. She will get their approval. agonypaw decides she is willing to do or die for her clan. She would die trying to become something great before she lived her life a failure. agonypaw rest for the night, her mind made up. Shes hunting the beast.

By morning she has snuck out of camp to track the beast alone. Agonypaw almost runs into a patrol but hides from them, watching the sleepy morning patrol go by. she doesn’t want to get caught or get anyone involved in her quest, and once the patrol goes by the continues her search

she swears the rain and wind is worse than it has the passt few days, she hears a rumble of thunder. just her luck, the sound of rain sounds like paw steps as the heavy drops hit the forest

agonypaw believes she hears something in the short distance and feels eyes on her, from deep in the marshes where her clanmates have died in the past, where they were forbidden to go as the mud was too deep and thick for even the strongest warriors.

As her mind focuses into the muddy and foggy grove, she hears her name suddenly. Aweshine and Humidfur, their out here in the rain calling for her. They sound worried. the two stop at the edge of the territory, agonypaw cant hear them over the rain, they sound upset. their saying something about her and it makes her want to come out and tell them she’s ok, its ok shes right here. To ask for their help, but she remembers tranquilstorms words, not to tell anyone because she didn’t want anyone to get hurt. And if she let aweshine help no one would ever look at her, only aweshine

The two warriors give up calling for agonypaw, are quiet for a moment before they mutter something agonypaw cannot understand and seem to run off back into the forest. But not they dont seem to head homeward.

she comes out of hiding, she looks to the deep dark swampy part of their territory. Very little safe places to step, a wrong move and you’ll be up to your snout in mud.

its then that she notices a bubble pop on the surface of the ground and reveals what appears to be a half eaten piece of prey, a fish. Those can’t be found around here. Something brought it here. she notices there large claw marks on a log that sits in the mud ahead. the beast is out there, and she going to have to go after it

Agonypaw takes a leap of fate, landing clumsily onto a wet rock sticking out of the mud. Then to the next rock, then another long leap to the truck of a small tree, and up into its branches. Lunging from one tree to the next, eyes on the ground looking for her prey.

the she notices claw marks, smaller in the branches where she was. Small broken branches. Someone had been up here. agonypaw in a bit of horror questions if this had been were bittertounge had been a few moons ago before he died. Had Bittertounge attempted the same thing agonypaw was right now, was his fate to be share with her?

agonypaw shake off the thought and continues off trying to not be caught out here when the sun set. She reaches the end of the trees she can reach and sees far below is a large smooth rock. She just needs to get to the rock then she can keep going. Stepping to the mud, working with all her might to stay above, to not sink down, unable to find a bottom in the dark sludge.

she continues to drags herself but grows more and more tired and the rock still seems to far away as she struggles to keep moving

she starst to yell out loud that she WONT be her grandfather,she wont die here, she going to be someone great, but on her own terms. She wont waste into another nobody after tranquilstorm worked so hard, She'll stand strong as her own warrior. She isnt prismstar.

suddenly she feels someting grab her neck, she feels panicked for a moment as the three mouths grab onto her but is too tired to fight back and in a flash theres solid ground under her.

She catches her breath and sees Humidfur, Aweshine and a Honorclan apprentice Deckerpaw panting beside her, covered up to their necks in mud.

once aweshine catches her breath she begins to lick mud off agonypaws face and start cursing the stars that she was worried sick about her. agonypaw is suprised by the grim toms worried tone, Aweshine was never one for emotions yet here she was, the most scared she had ever seen her.

aweshine and humidfur press agonypaw for what in the world she was doing out here in the rain. She could have gotten herself hurt. agonypaw doesnt know how to answer until she relizes she does, she’s know what to say for a long time and just hasnt

agonypaw tells aweshine flat out that she was jealous of aweshine, and afraid of how everyone would look at her if she failed as a warrior. And after she lost her eye and her chance at being a warrior it only got worse. She wanted to be someone who could proudly be called prismstars kin, but then she relized she didn’t really want that.she did, at first. But now she just wants to be a warrior,a nd make everyone proud, especially tranquilstorm

Aweshine freeze as the mention of Agonypaw mentor's name.she looks around and questions where tranquilstorm is. agonypaw questions why aweshine thinks tranquilstorm would be here but is interrupted as the rock under them begins to rise and shake revealing to the the large back of a turtle bigger than any of the gloryclan warriors. This was a monster they stood upon.

The four cats begin to slide at the movement of the beast under them. Three of them falling to the back end of the turtle, Aweshine crushed until the back leg and shell. while agonypaw falls to the front right into the mud, right under the turtles killing maw.

Agonypaw struggles to get away from the turtles powerful snap, its then that she sees her mentor, Tranquilstorm perched safely in a tree above them watching.

every thought races through Agonypaws mind as she tries to understand what was happening and how she would get away from the beast.

But the thoughts dont last long as Tranquilstorm launches from her branch, claws outstretched to meet the beast. As the turtle snaps down it takes Tranquilstorms tail into its mouth and the loud crunch is heard. Tranquilstorm none the less holds onto the monsters face for dear life as the younger apprentices and warriors crawl to smaller rocks or to the base of the trees.

Tranquilstorm tells Agonypaw she's sorry as agonypaw is frozen in place in the mud. Agonypaw can only search her mentors eyes for something.

It isnt much longer before a patrol of cats appear

revelstar, mutestar bogshadow, jocundbounce,algeasnout, sorrowcloud, brashtounge and moldpelt all led be eveningpaw of loyalclan.

the group helps the apprentices with the turtle. Managing to get it to open its mouth and let go of tranquilstorm. the group hurries away from the turtle and helps the tired apprentices and tranquilstorm back to camp. the older warriors mutter more quietly, many words of tranquilstorms name was thrown around as they led everyone back to camp.

Agonypaw doesn't know what to feel but stays by Tranquilstorms side as they work on her tail, just as her mentor did when she lost her eye.

Tranquilstorm tells agonypaw shes sorry once more before falling asleep in the medicine cats den.

The sound of rain comes to pass.

Its some time later, Agonypaw is at her warrior's ceremony, she is named Agonyheart.

Tranquilstorm is still in Camp but basically a prisoner. her and Agonypaw's relationship is wobbly since it was outed that Tranquilstorm not only tried to get agonyheart killed, but was also responsible for the deaths of Benevolancelight and Bittertounge.

this is about where the story of Agonypaw would end. Ambiguous to how Agony feels after everything that happened and if she can fully forgive her mentor. But her heart is kind and she loved her like family too much its hard to fully hate her.

Tranquilstorm would come to be allowed to resume warrior duties but only under diligent watch other trusted warriors. Probably would up and leave due to guilt and other aspects, just disappear into the night not to be heard from again, only leaving with one last sorry and goodbye to her last and only apprentice who changed her heart forever.

#i swear i was gonna talk about ALL the apprentices #but this is only about Agonypaws pov for her story it just ended up so much longer than i thought it would #if you wanna hear about the other characters povs in the story like eveningpaw or deckerpaw or agonypaws cousins or yknow! tranquilstorm!#just ask im ready to talk about my freakin kitty cats >:#>:3*#warrior cats #wc ocs #my ocs #agonypaw #long post
