Explain your Plot:

Background info: Briarthorn was first trained as a medicine cat, but was destined to become a great warrior. StarClan, however, knew that unless he was first trained as a medicine cat, he would have no compassion and get out of control with a growing lust to fight that would consume him. This did happen, and Briarthorn has been purposefully getting into unnecessary fights, and enjoys fighting and hurting cats. But he is losing control, and it is only a matter of time before he goes too far.

In short, this does happen, and he kills/severely mauls a cat from another clan. Horrified by this, and all of his previous actions, he runs off into twolegplace, planning to never return. He gets severely injured, and uses his medicine cat training to save himself, but is too weak to continue to hunt for himself, etc. A kittypet/rogue/lonar she-cat finds him, and helps to nurse him back to health. They fall in love, and he ends up admitting to her what he’s done. She convinces him that he should go back to his clan/family, and she comes with him. She has his kits, he faces the consequences of his actions, and brings his urge to fight under control.

This is the long story:
Briarthorn loves to fight. So much, that he goes out purposefully seeking them. He has even crossed borders once or twice to do it. During one of these purposeful fights, he goes too far and kills/mauls the clan cat. Briarthorn is horrified by this and his other actions, and runs off into twolegplace, planning to never return. On the other side of twolegplace, he finds a farm, and kills a chicken in an attempt to hunt for himself. The farmer sees him do this, and shoots him in the leg with a BB gun. He manages to escape, and uses his medicine cat knowledge to extract the BB and keep his wound from getting infected. However, he is too weak from blood loss and his injury to continue to hunt for himself. A kittypet/rogue/lonar she-cat finds him, and helps to nurse him back to health. All the while that they are talking, Briarthorn avoids the subject of his backstory fearing that the she-cat will abandon him if she knew what he had done. Once Briarthorn is healed, they decide to stick together as they roam twolegplace and the countryside on the opposite side from the clan territories. Over time they bond more and more until they fall in love. Then the kittypet/rogue/lonar tells him that she is pregnant with his kits. Briarthorn decides to tell his mate about what he has done, and where he came from. She listens to him, and asks him to tell her more. He tells her about his family, WindClan, and his basically entire life. She tells him that he should go back to be with his family and clan again, and that she will go with him, whatever he chooses. Briarthorn listens to what his mate says, and after thinking about it for a while, he comes to his decision. He is going home. As he walks back towards his clan territory with his pregnant mate, he almost turns back more than once. But he makes it to camp, and accepts the punishment that Ravenstar gives him for mauling/killing the cat and abandoning his clan. Not long after he gets home, his mate gives birth to their kits.

How will this impact the characters/clans involved?:

His growing ego and desire to prove himself will crash like a wave, sending him into a pit of despair and self-loathing. I don’t know what the clan of the killed/mauled cat will do, but something will probably happen with that.

Why should this plot be approved?:

Because this is just a re-written version of an already approved plot, and there's not really any new code braking.
