Epilogue
"Are you sure your ok?" Stormcloud asked. "You hit that tree pretty hard chasing that rabbit."
Splashthroat winced. "I'll just go see my brother." Her heart warmed. It was his idea that he would be the medicine cat, and Splashthroat take his place as a warrior.
She poked her head into the medicine cat's den. "Rabbitfern?"
"Hi Splashthroat!" Rabbitfern greeted Splashthroat cheerily. "What's up?"
"Nothing much." She replied, wincing. "I ran in to a tree chasing a rabbit, that's all."
Rabbitfern's whiskers twitched with amusement. "Always impatient, I see. Do you have any scratches?"
Splashthroat shook her head.
"Good. You can have some poppy seed. Go to sleep in the warrior's den. No duties till tomorrow."
Splashthroat nodded, picking up the leaf wrap with her poppy seed. As she padded toward the den, she recalled how scared and nervous Rabbitfern had been when he first joined. She smiled. He really did make it work.
So, that's the end of my first story. Yay! Now I can work on others!
