Hawkwing goes with them and points out that they need to figure out if they're two Clans or one; Violetshine reflects how Puddleshine hasn't had an omen from StarClan yet in support of Tawnypelt as leader. He also makes comments approving of Tree as Violetshine's mate, which Violetshine is mortified about. They agree to divide up RiverClan among the other three Clans to shelter for now.
Mistystar is grateful, and Violetshine hopes that means RiverClan is returning to the other Clans. The Clans gather at the full moon a half moon later. Mistystar says that RiverClan will return to full participation in the forest, and the other Clans are pretty unhappy with how they'd shut themselves away only to come back when they need help, but Tree speaks up in RiverClan's support everyone, naturally, is surprised at this random nobody addressing all the Clans.
The Clan leaders agree to give him a trial period, and Leafstar welcomes him as an official Clan member he chooses to keep his name. Twigpaw notices the admiring looks Violetshine and Tree are giving each other.
Ivypool admits to Alderheart that she's stopped feeling so betrayed about Dovewing leaving, and understands if Dovewing felt she had to be with Tigerheart. Alderheart realizes afterward that Briarlight's gotten sick, and they bring her back to the medicine cat den. The following day, Briarlight's taken a severe turn for the worse - both she and Alderheart know that she's dying.
Alderheart realizes that she hasn't been eating well and has been hiding how sick she actually felt. Briarlight and her family say goodbye to each other, and she joins StarClan.
The Clan sits vigil, and Alderheart stumbles exhausted into his den; Velvet offers to take care of him and he falls asleep. Violetshine enters the SkyClan camp after hunting and realizes that something's wrong. She realizes that Yarrowleaf's kits are missing, and that Yarrowleaf herself is asleep, having eaten a mouse drugged with poppyseeds. Violetshine remembers Sleekwhisker slipping away the other day and realizes she must have taken the kits.
She wakes Yarrowleaf, and the two of them, plus Rowanclaw and Macgyver, track their scent to the Twoleg nest on ShadowClan territory where the aggressive kittypets Jacques and Susan live.
Jacques, sneering, offers to bring them to Yarrowleaf's kits. He leads them to where Tawnypelt and the kits are being kept prisoner by Susan, Sleekwhisker, and two of Darktail's rogues Raven and the kits' father Nettle - Sleekwhisker lured Tawnypelt out and they jumped her, and then Sleekwhisker stole the kits. Sleekwhisker wants revenge on Rowanclaw for being a weak leader, and says they'll kill Tawnypelt before his eyes and if the Clan cats try to intervene they'll kill the kits - or, alternately, Rowanclaw can give himself up instead of Tawnypelt, which he agrees to.
The rogues refuse to let the kits go as well, though, so Rowanclaw shouts a command, and fighting breaks out. The Clan cats save the kits, and kill Nettle and drive off the other rogues, but Rowanclaw is dying. He tells Tawnypelt that Tigerheart will return, and says goodbye. They expect him to come back, since he was a leader with nine lives, but he remains dead: Violetshine realizes that he must have given back his nine lives, and StarClan accepted his choice.
As they return to camp, Macgyver asks Tawnypelt if she'll lead ShadowClan now, but she says that without Rowanclaw, ShadowClan is dead. A quarter moon later, Alderheart hangs around the camp with Velvet, and Twigpaw announces happily that she and Finpaw are going to have their final assessments.
A kittypet named Ajax who we'd seen in Tigerheart's Shadow finds the camp, looking for Velvet and Fuzzball, and tells them that it's safe to come home. They decide to stay one more night before leaving in the morning, and Velvet tells Alderheart that there are some parts of Clan life she'll miss, and he realizes that she means him.
That night Jayfeather gives Alderheart a big long speech about how his feelings aren't wrong but acting on them is, and Alderheart's like 'I know, I don't intend to, I'm just thinking about how to say goodbye to her' and Jayfeather gets all awkward. When Alderheart and Velvet say goodbye the following morning, they admit that they'll miss each other, but both understand it wouldn't have worked out. Twigpaw and Finpaw have their assessment, and pass with flying colors.
She's thrilled to find that Violetshine and Hawkwing are visiting for the naming ceremony; Alderheart arranged it. Twigpaw is named Twigbranch for the way she grew from a tiny kit to a strong warrior just as a twig grows into a branch , and Finpaw is given the name Finleap. Grassheart and Strikestone dash into the camp and say urgently that they need Hawkwing - the missing ShadowClan warriors have come back, with a dead Tigerheart.
Violetshine, Alderheart, and Hawkwing follow the ShadowClan warriors to the Moonpool, where they are reunited with Dovewing and meet her kits.
Dovewing tells her story, which we saw in Tigerheart's Shadow : Dovewing and Tigerheart ran off to a big Twolegplace, where their kits were born, before ultimately deciding to return; the three strangers with them came from there, and they all found the other missing ShadowClan cats on their way home. Berryheart explains that they were terrified of Darktail and ran off, and that Tigerheart and Dovewing had found them, but they were attacked by an owl, which injured Tigerheart fatally.
The kit Shadowkit insists that Tigerheart's not dead, that he had a dream about them playing together, and describes the ShadowClan camp perfectly despite having never been there. They wait until sunset, and Violetshine explains how Rowanclaw died and gave his lives back to StarClan. Suddenly Tigerheart gets up and leaps strongly into the group of his Clanmates.
He explains that he has been given nine lives by StarClan, and they greet him as Tigerstar, the new leader of ShadowClan. Leafstar says that ShadowClan cats are no longer welcome in her camp, and Tigerstar agrees it's time for his Clan to return home. Dovewing explains that she's staying with Tigerstar in ShadowClan though she'll visit ThunderClan first , and Leafstar asks Violetshine where she's staying: Violetshine says proudly that she's a SkyClan cat.
They go to the ThunderClan camp and everyone welcomes back Dovewing and she and her kits meet Ivypool's kits. It's only a little later that they realize she's been saying 'Tigerstar' instead of 'Tigerheart' and so they explain what happened. Brambleclaw's uncomfortable about there being another Tigerstar leading ShadowClan. Dovewing and her family leave to go to the ShadowClan camp.
Alderheart is glad that they're five Clans again, but is still concerned about the tensions between them all. As Alderheart wanders around the camp, he finds a scrap of fur that Velvet had kept as a toy, and decides to return it to her. In the Twolegplace he notices Rippletail, a missing ShadowClan cat, who Fuzzball claims is a newer kittypet named Buster; he asks Fuzzball to pass on a message about ShadowClan being whole again.
