She started this as a April fools joke, yet accidently ended this with many fans questioning everything they've known

Firestar’s dead, BUT GARFIELDSTAR LIVES ON BABY!!!

"He was so busy being a hero, he forgot to die!" I need to use this quote at least once in my life.

Knowing the Erins... I'd believe it. Also, his cause of death could have been a sudden heart attack. Anticlimatic as all heck, but makes logical sense. That, or Starclan was like "...eh. Firestar avoided all the things he threw at him, so we'll just kill him outright."

w- Why was that so convincing? I know it’s an April fools joke but- There’s so much evidence

Sunnyfalls:*makes an April Fools video* Erins:"WRITE THAT DOWN! WRITE THAT DOWN!"

Bluestar DID give him the life of everlasting life 🤔

Although it is supposed to be an April Fools video, the arguments here presented by Sunnyfall are actually very valid and convincing. I've always wondered how Firestar died, and I believed that he was hit by the “falling” tree, since it relatively makes more sense, until Sunnyfall points out that the tree was already “fallen”. I think I can now start to tell myself that Firestar didn't die. Because I miss him. I miss him terribly. No matter how people think of him, he was a great leader with so many virtues, who persevered through all hardships and dire situations, and led his Clan until his very last breath. Just imagine, with all the chaos that is going on in ThunderClan right now, that familiar, flame-coloured pelt appears at the entrance, once more. The same reassuring voice echoes in the camp, once more: “I am Firestar. I have come back.”

Imagine in a new book firestar comes back (Insert main cats name) eyes widened, an orange tabby had appeared in their camp. "Firestar! Y-you're alive...?" Squirrelstar mewed in a rather harsh voice. The clan gathered around. "Yes, I have lied to you." Firestar announced sorrowful. "But why... YOU DIED IN THE LAST HOPE MOUSEBRAIN." Squirrelstar called, getting on her hind legs, grabbing a pay phone. And calling starclan angrily, "Yes, I've found firestar... How long has he been missing?"

I think Firestar died of a broken heart after losing his true love, Tigerstar- I mean Spottedleaf, once and for all :)

The rest of the cats: You were supposed to be dead!” Firestar: “I got better?”

The fact that you labeled Barley as Ravenpaw's husband :'D

wait so you’re like “this was an april fools joke” but you’re so right??? Maybe he just happened to have a little kitty heart attack at a glorious moment.

I am electing to ignore the fact that it's April Fools Day & say that my new headcanon is Firestar left to become a kittypet again. He saw that literal Hell exists & has a vendetta against him specifically, proceeded to have a mid-life crisis, & noped tf outta there.

I know this is an April fool's joke but this is some really valid information, you did a really good job providing so much evidence

Possibly Firestar died from exhaustion, and was only able to fight so flawlessly because of all the adrenaline? I’m trying to make sense of this now too loo

Firestar's true cause of death was "because we said so."

Sunny. Sunny what about the lightning. Sunny what about the 50-100 ft radius of a lightning strike and ensuing ground current. Sunny what about the electricity of the lightning strike going through into the earth and the ground current frying his furry little body with 300 million volts of SunnyD. Sunny there are often not many visible wounds by a lightning strike to the point they check animals for sudden strokes to determine cause of death. Sunny an average cat couldn’t even suffer .01 amps of 110 volts without perishing. Sunny what if they lit him up like a Christmas tree but they were running out of word count so they had to call it a day. Sunny.

"Lost helping Ravenpaw and his husband Barley" 😂

This was so convincing 😭 Lighting doesn't just electrocute one spot, it electrocutes the ground around it, so he still would've been shocked to death, THATS how Firestar died

When I read when he died I thought the tree fell on him and the second time I thought he also got struck by lightning as well.

Maybe he died from the rain I mean, his name is FIREstar

HOW DARE THE AUTHORS LIE TO US LIKE THIS /j

I want to write this as an actual AU now. Firestar doesn't die, but StarClan decides to try out giving Bramble his lives >:)

He was right next to a lightning strike, he could’ve gotten electrocuted Watch this video be foreshadowing that you’re not going to kill him in the rewrite/

I’m gonna blame almost getting swept up by a tornado for the reasoning my dumb ass forgot what today was I got way too invested into this video lol. By the way 10:02 best evil laugh.

🟥Clarification🟥 After prophecy ‘fire alone will save our clan’ there was prophecy, after ‘fire saves the clan’ fire will burn out! So when fire star “saved the clan” his prophecy was finished and Star clan had to take his last life away!

I clicked on this video entirely forgetting what day it was ...despite having just realized what day it was minutes prior.

I want to believe that my Dorito colored kitty is alive and well. So, I can adopt him and give him the best life ever! (Also, I'ma bring back Sandstorm so they can live happily ever after) Imagen this: Thunderclan: *inaudible arguing* Firestar: *Waltzes in through the gorse tunnel* Thunderclan: *Sees him and gives visible confusion* Firestar: Bramblestar what have you done to my clan? Bramblestar: Wha? How are you alive!? Firestar: *I G O T B E T T E R*

Part of me refuses to call it an April Fools joke and actually believes it.

``Nightheart looked to his paws, looking at the familiar clan camp. He took a deep breathe before taking steps into the sandy entrance, and looked back, his eyes shining with guilt but his expression kept blank. "Go on." A flame-colored tom, into the woods, dappled with the shadows of the leaves, nodded to his great-great-grandson. "And don't, never forget what i telled you, Nightheart." He smirked, with a muted purr in his fluffy throat. "I'll never forget, Firestar." Nightheart meowed, reluctant. "I promise." Firestar let out a mrrow of satisfaction, and dived back into the woods, his very known orange fur disappearing in the shadows.`` Why i did this? Well... there is a word, it is called "fun", know? Being serious now. Even tough thats an April Fool's videos, all of this are pretty much valid points. Erins do have a flawed writting, and this, even tough it makes some books pretty bad (* COUGH* Squirrelflight's Hope * COUGH*), it at least let us dream and have hopes. But having Firestar back isnt a good thing, at least, not now. He is like a god to Thunderclan, in a exaggerated way; Not to mention that it would just put Firestar back into the plot, again. Just let the dude die in peace, he already saved his clan and there is no need to save it again. Yes, he's the first protagonist, yes, without him there wouldnt be your beloved series, yes, but this doesnt mean he needs to be a kittygod. And this means, for me, that the books should have ended in OOTS, since now they're trying to find water in desert: Nothing to be explored anymore, and it it does have something that you can explore into, the Erins would find a way to do it dirty, knowing how the writing team is today. Sorry for all of the Firefans, but Firestar needs to rest. Please.

I haven’t actually read warriors but I know the entire story and most of the details despite that I forgot about it being April fools I genuinely thought in the new book he was confirmed to be alive and I was gonna RIOT

*The clan gasped as a brightly orange pelted cat walked to the entrance.* "Firestar?! We thought you went to starclan!" *SquirrelStar yowled, leaning over the edge. Firestar chuckled, his green gaze like sunshine.* "I have always lived. I watched the clan through times. look who I also brought." *He turned, waving his tail for a bunch of cats entering the entrance. The clan held their breath* "Greystripe…ravenpaw..Bluestar.." *SquirrelStar mumbled, staring in surprise.* "We have returned, Let the clans thrive once again."

man I'd love if all this were true. it'd make his "death" actually make sense

*Sigh* Happy April Fools Day Sunny. You got me there.

Sunnyfall: *makes an April fools video.* Fans: *questioning everything they ever knew.* Erins: *questioning their existence.*

Fire star:gets hit by a burning tree struck down by lightning smoke is all around him rain comes and clears it all up! one of his cats find him he gets up and says"Was that a fly?"

“How did Firestar die?” “You know, it was really unclear.”

Yeah- let's not forget the fact that it took Gray Wing like- three years to die of smoke inhalation in DotC

Okay but... the fact that she sounded so passionate about this and left every fan of warrior cats questioning everything they've ever known about the lore is just... terrifying.

1:08 “His husband barley-“ Seems accurate

1:10 his husband 🥹

This is such a random idea for an April fools video and I love it

It’s been a long while since I’ve interacted with warriors at all but this sounds interesting Quick question, is the new arc worth reading?

This was your first video that I watched . . . I'm glad I did.😄 Also, anyone else notice The Last Hope nearly came out on April 1st. Coincidence? No? Just me then. Okay.

it took me a whole 10 minutes to catch on, thats just how it is when you use videos as background noise! lovely video sunny, had some laughs!

this is the only conspiracy I will accept DO BOT FALL FOR THA PROPOGANDUH

The fact that he died half the fandoms life ago is concerning

My only question now is…….what is Firestar doing with that last life 🤔? Maybe he’s retired and returned to the life of a kittypet 😂.

I still say Bloodloss. FireStar may have lost much more blood earlier In his life. Tho wounds not fatal, just enough to bleed him. The tree was RIGHT next to him, so electricity could've entered his body.

He died because of the tree after the battle with the dark forest, and then in appearance quest he was in the star clan when he told alderpaw about sky clan

The Erin killed off firestar to continue the story as quickly as they can. Firestars death sucks and they could've actually made his death due to blood loss or a heart attack that was clearly quoted in the books. For example they couldve made tigerstar actually slash firestars throat. Honestly the only option we have for his death was a heart attacks,a deadly seizure,a stroke or an aneurysm ( from the amount of stress he has been trough fighting tigerstar.) The most likely options are the seizure or the heart attack.

Damn, i'm kinda scared of Sunnyfall insane laugh (started to get scared from 9:58 to 10:06). WHAT??? APRIL FOOLS? I know i'm late, but there's so much evidence that i can't not believe Firestar isn't alive.

He used the smoke to cover up him quickly tossing an exact replica of his own dead body on the ground and making his getaway

I didn't even realize this was posted on April 1st until the end, dayum was this video convincing

I spent like 8 minutes getting mad and confused because of how ridiculous this theory is until I remembered April fool's was yesterday 🤦 good job lmao

Awesome Answers All of my Questions

I know I'm very late but I know what Erin did there. As you all know, Firestar represents fire, so she made lightning strike the tree next to him, causing it to burst into flames but then soon after rain came to quench the fire, he was dead. And you know a way how fire dies. It gets quenched by water. And remember Starclans prophecy, "Water quenches fire".

Firestar was like "I'm tired I'm just gonna die now"

OMG I never noticed that! But now that I think about it, it makes so much sense!😮

I always assumed Firestar either died of smoke inhalation from the burning trees; his combined exhaustion, shortness of breath from his adrenaline-rushed duel with Tigerstar, and his bone-weary grief over everyone that had died that day could very well have weakened him to the point where the smoke was too much and he suffocated, or his heart simply... gave out, and stopped. My preferred headcanon, though, is that Firestar never "died," but had an event similar to the departure of the prophet Elijah in the Bible. The flames obscured him as he was called home to StarClan, and having completed all four of his destinies, was told by StarClan to finally rest. I will note here the bit in the prologue of Bramblestar's Storm where Firestar says "I shouldn't have had to leave my Clan," almost bitterly, as if he hadn't had any choice, or thought that StarClan killing him had been unfair to his Clan. I also seem to remember that whoever he's talking to(Bluestar? I can't remember), reassuring him that it was best for him to be in StarClan, because Bramblestar needed to take up the mantle at such a momentous moment to ensure that the Clans could change; new leadership is a powerful force to drive it. So yeah I think Firestar was basically honored with an ascension, and he wasn't killed. Tigerstar had no victory over him, and was not the cause of his death. Firestar didn't lose, he just left when his only remaining opponent had been removed from the field.

That is the most perfect evil villain laugh I've ever heard 10:02

This is the same series that killed the main antagonist from a single blow I’m talking about TigerStar btw

StarClan was just like “yeah you’re coming with us.” *(freaking) kills FireStar*

Inhaling very little smoke can be dangerous, since it can kind of cause your lungs to collapse on themselves a little. But I don't think that he died to smoke

five stages of grief… 1. denial …

he actually died from a fire when a tree limb next to him caught on fire from lightning(probably starclan), engulfing him in the smoke and flames

1:09 LETS GO RAVENBARLEY MATERIAL

"stage 3- denial" them: I like that stage

GREAT ANALYSIS A+ 👏

That was getting my hopes up 😢

The lightning is hotter than the SUN when it strikes, and Firestar could have been struck by it, or a tendril of the lighting, or it was too much for his elderly and damaged body to handle sooo

You sound so sassy and i love it 😭👍

He died the same way bluestar did, being done with thunderclan’s shit

"He was so busy being a hera that he FAILED TO DIE!" -Sunnyfall (Ps you actaully convinced me firestar is alive for a minute)

I personally think that it may have been the lightning that got him due to his close proximity to the tree. It wouldn't leave any scorch marks or any wounds at all and he would just simply drop dead instantly.

Another fun thing to note is scourage never killed tiger star nine times if you look back into the book it was said by running nose that he was Denied guardianship and his nine lives he was killed once and he just claimed he forced running nose to agree with him to keep his life.

maybe it was a heart attack or an aneurysm burst?

OOoh hehe HAPPY APRIL FOOLS!

Imagine just looking out your window and you see a army of cats fighting air..

What if, Nightheart runs into Firestar in Shadow. Or the tom mentioned in the blurb for Thunder is Firestar? Wooooooooooo 😅

Knowing warrior cats? He probably killed himself or got murdered by some person still loyal to the dark forest THEORY TIME So, why would he kill himself? So, him being fire star, he’d have a pretty good life. Leader of thunder clan! But, as a living cat, he could be harmed. But as a star clan cat, nothing could hurt him! He’d be invincible, and he’d literally live forever, with everyone telling legends of him. With a place in star clan, he could easily manipulate the new leader to doing whatever he’d wish for the clan, while staying safe. All he’d have to say is he’s guiding this dude, and he’d be fine. He could do this till the end of the clans! And that would be awhile lol. Why would he be murdered? And I mean by a living cat. Plenty of the cats must have remained loyal to the dark forest, but there were also cats who already hated fire star. While he was distracted at the end of the battle, and with all that smoke, someone could easily slip by and kill him without anyone seeing what happened. A lot of cats didn’t like him fir him being to willing to help out everyone, so there’d be no reason someone wouldn't!

Starclan regicide for dramatic effect. Starclan killed him for exactly the reason stated. If they let him live he'd die of something unbefitting, so they had to take his last life prematurely.

Maybe Firestar was just tired of everything going on is he just manually ascended to starclan.

This actually makes sense!

Lol imagine in a future arc they actually make this come true

I don’t understand why people don’t understand the fact the author may have forgotten to add details

its actually confusing that you can die again in starclan 😅 (3:11)

THE LAUGH AT THE END GOT ME DEAD INSIDE THAT WAS EVIL 🥲

YESSSS HE IS ALIVE FOREVER MEHHEHEHEHEHHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHHEHHEHEHEHHEHEHHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHHEHEHEHEHEHEHHEHEHEHEHEHEHHEHEHEHEHHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHHEHEHEHHEHEHEHEHEHHEHEHEHEHEHEHHEHEHEHHEHEHEHHEHEHEHHEHEHEHEHEHHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHHEHEHEHEHEHEHHEHEHEHEHEHHEHEHEHHEHEHEHEHEHEHHEHEHEHEHHEHEHEHHEHEHEHEHHEHEHEHEHEHEHHEHEHEHEHHEHEHEHEHHEHEHEHHEHEJEHEHHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHHEHHEHEHEHHEHEHHEHEHEHEHHEHEHEHHEHEHHEHHEHEHEHEHHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHHEHEHEHEHEHEHHEHEHEHEHHEHEHEHEHHEHEHEHHEHEHEHEHEHHEHEHEHEHEHHEHEHEHEHHEHEHEHEHHEHEHHEHE anyways happy April fools everyone lol

I agree that Fire star lives. Although I haven't even started the fourth book yet, I know about Midnight and Scourge.
