History:
The Rising Battle

Nettleclaw is born to Redstream and Birchfoot. His sister is Heatherspots and his brother is Stormclaw. He argues with Icefur, the deputy, about giving prey to ShadeClan. Icefur gives in and says yes, he may take some prey to ShadeClan. Heatherspots disagrees, and attacks her brother. She strikes a blow on his belly, killing Nettleclaw. Stormclaw and Redstream are shocked, and Froststar takes her to Twolegplace, and puts Heatherspots in a Twoleg nest. Nettleclaw's spirit appears to Heatherspots in a dream, and asks why she killed him. She gets into a fight again that is broken up by Birchfoot, who died between Chapter 3 and Chapter 4. Heatherspots kills Birchfoot for a second time and Nettleclaw makes her wake up.

His spirit talks to Froststar about the Dark Forest cats. He tells her that Moonfeather and Patchfur were training there and that Heatherspots had drowned, and was also training them. Froststar is horrified, and begs Nettleclaw to tell her more. He shakes his head and departs. Later, he is sharing tongues with Spottedshine and Redstream. Nettleclaw fights Heatherspots with Stormclaw and Stormclaw kills Heatherspots's mate, Kestrelfur. Heatherspots crumples to the ground and is swiftly killed by Icefur. Nettleclaw congratulates Icefur, and says he can't believe Heatherspots was his sister.

Heatherspots's Revenge

Nettleclaw is mentioned by Heatherspots to Kestrelfur. Minnowpaw asks what Heatherspots is talking about, and she snaps at Minnowpaw to be quiet. Nettleclaw does not realise that she was not killed, and lived on. He is shocked when Heatherspots drowns Stormclaw quite happily. Later he and Stormclaw appear in Froststar's dream. Froststar actually kills Heatherspots, and Nettleclaw is happy as well as Stormclaw. He cheers Icefur up when she moans that she wished she could have killed Heatherspots.
