What Could Have Been
(If she had lived)
Suggested by Fairydust07

WARNING
VERY OPINIONATED THOUGHTS AHEAD
YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED

ADDITIONAL WARNIMG, I HAVE NOT READ ANYTHING PAST THE LAST HOPE
EBERYTHING IM SAYING OR BASING THIS AU OFF OF IS FROM THE WARRIORS WIKI

Okay, so, I know very little about her, but I think that gives me a little bit more freedom yeah?
Since I do t know a whole lot, cut me some slack, and do t get all lossy saying this wouldn't happen.
Ithat what I think, and you can tell me how to think

Now
I like to think that she didn't escape normally.
Maybe she escaped or was rescued before she drowned completely. She was revived, or saved, or rescued or whatever.
She lives after almost drowning.

Afterwards, she has a huge fear of the lake, and large, deep bodies of water.
She refuses to go to the lake to drink water, and causes lots of stress for her family.
She begins to become dehydrated due to her Hydrophobia, and the Medicine Cat starts to feed her berries to help keep her water up.

Her mate, (she gets a mate,) brings her balls of moss, soaked in water, to help encourage her to drink during the summer months.
It helps, but he would need to refill it multiple times a day to keep her hydrated.

She becomes pregnant, and refuses to drink water normally.
The medicine cat still feeds her berries, and her mate still brings her water via moss ball.
She gives birth to 3 kits, but still refuses to drink water.

Due to her nursing, and her irrational fear of large bodies of water, she becomes extremely dehydrated, and no longer produces enough milk to feed all her kits.
2 pass away. Leaving one little tom.
She tries to pull through, and force herself to drink water, but she just can't. Her kit is getting weaker. She is gettin weaker,

A flash flood.
She is done. She can't handle water, she can't handle drowning, it scares her, she is terrified.
She leaves in the middle of the night, to either join Smokey and Coriander at the Horseplace.
Or to become a kittypet.

She leaves her son, weaned at 6 weeks.
Bumblekit.

His father is extremely protective, he becomes a male Queen, and requests to mentor his son.
His son is named Bumblenose, after his mother.





Idk, that's what I thought of
I really don't know much about her character, but the idea of ptsd in Warriors is an interesting topic, since it hits close to home for me.
I believe she would try her hardest not to talk about, or listen to any stories about Darktail, his group, or drowning.
I believe she half debated on joining Riverclan to learn how to swim, but couldn't make it after staring at the lake.
She would be terrified by rain, and would hate water.
When she becomes a kittypet, she is more comfortable around her water bowls, and the Twoleg nest keeps her dry.

Idk, I'd really like a character with ptsd, and she seemed like a good candidate for it.
Sorry Beenose,

Awwwwwwwwwwwwww, this AU gives me so many feels! It's a good story, especially the male queen part--sounds so sweet, as does Bumblenose--and I really like how you added the little bee with Beenose's name. It's so cute!
