Butterflies and Hurricanes

Summary:

The badgers never attacked ThunderClan. Leafpool and Crowfeather left the Clans for good.

Eight seasons later, their kits return to ThunderClan. Struggling with her new Clanmates' prejudices and expectations, Holly nevertheless finds a home by the lake - but it's a home that's under threat. The battle with the Dark Forest is looming, and as Holly, her brothers and her newfound friend Ivypaw become further involved, they realise that the route to saving the Clans may not be what anyone expects.
