I felt sore all over. My arms were sore. My legs were sore. Even my eyes were sore, and if M.N was right, I had been out for a week!

I didn't want to move. I was so comfy. It was comfier than the mattress I slept on when I had a sleepover at Rory's, and that was saying something.

But yet, I felt like I needed to move.

I didn't.

I could hear someone's foot tapping the ground. The ground sounded like wood. Maybe stone?

I wasn't sure.

My right arm was particularly sore. It moved by itself.

The foot stopped tapping the ground. When I didn't move it started tapping the ground again.

I tried to go back to sleep.

As soon as that thought ran through my mind, my chest felt really sore.

"Ow..." I groaned.

I opened my eyes.

I was on a bed. In a little wooden hut.

Oh yeah, and Petra was leaning against the wall.

I sat up, wincing as the soreness got worse.

"You're finally awake." Petra said.

I looked at her. She didn't have that reddish tint to your eyes.

"Memories are all back, as far as I can tell." She explained, "but enough about me. How are you feeling?"

"Sore." I swung my legs over the side of the bed. "Fill me in on what happened."

Petra studied me, then decided that I was probably okay to hear what happened.

"What a fall that was. You should've died. No offence. But you're a miracle now, I guess," Petra grinned a little, "Rory cried so much you wouldn't believe it. Jesse was all like 'wow, she saved my pig'. Then we built this thing to have someplace to keep you. Took place watching you. Some people thought you'd never wake up."

"You?"

"It was kinda hard to believe that you would wake up. But you're strong."

I nodded slowly.

Rory.

Rory.

Him.

"Where's Rory?" I asked.

"With the others, becoming the new Order of the Stone."

"I need to see him!"

"No."

I would see him, with or without her guidance. I put one foot on the ground. It still felt sore. I put my other on the ground and tried to stand up.

I wobbled a bit, but I soon gained my balance.

"I said no!" Petra literally pushed me back onto the bed.

"Ow!" I yelped.

"I'm sorry."

I got off of the bed again. I looked Petra in the eyes.

I had to see Rory, to show him that I was okay.

Petra's expression softened.

"Fine, I'll take you there, but take it easy." She conceded, walking toward the door.

"Alright!" I chirped, following her.

---------

Foxspirit was greeted with surprised faces and friendly licks when she woke. She had a scar on her neck from when Tigerstar killed her.

But yet, she had survived.

Foxspirit padded - stumbled - out into the clearing. There were foxes there.

The biggest fox, Red, dipped his head in respect and all the foxes soon followed.

"They refused to leave." Frostwish explained.

"Cat With Fox Tongue make us see." Red rumbled, "Cat With Fox Tongue show us true nature of cats. But cats and foxes no live in harmony.

"I see your cat tongue is getting better." Foxspirit observed.

"Cats agree no kill foxes unless foxes do wrong. Foxes no kill cats unless cats do wrong."

"Okay."

"Foxes respect. Tales be told to young of Cat With Fox Tongue. No story, the vixen so say, no story, true event, Cat With Fox Tongue real. If you dead, they say Cat With Fox Tongue in stars. Clans have peace with foxes."

"Good."

"Lightning be expecting with Red pups. Name pups Frost, Falcon, Shrew, Sun. If four." Red paused, searching for a word.

"Thanks."

I could see the beacons lighting up. I could see the crowd of people. The crowd was big...it made me nervous.

I could see Jesse, Olivia, Axel, Reuben and Rory.

Lukas. He was in the crowd.

He should be on the stage.

Then Jesse spotted me. Reuben did, too.

Reuben made a few excited squeals and ran off of the stage to greet me.

"Hey, piggy." I knelt down to greet him, "how ya doin?"

"Aza!" Jesse exclaimed.

"I'm alive." I confirmed.

Then Jesse surprised me.

She hugged me.

"Ow..." I groaned.

"Sorry." Jesse pulled away from me.

"Careful, she's fragile." Petra warned.

"Could've used that warning-"

"AZA!"

I saw a blur, then Rory hug-tackled me.

"Ow! Ow! Ow!"

"Sorry." 

Rory kept his goofy grin on. Then he hugged me gentler. He whispered things to me, like how much he though put I was going to die. How scared he was.

I heard some 'aw's from the crowd.

"It's good to see that you made it." Olivia beamed at me.

I pulled myself away from Rory and looked at Axel.

"Jumping to save Reuben was pretty cool, I guess," he sighed, "you're okay in my books."

Rory hugged me again.

Had he forgiven me for what I had done?

Yes, he had.

And now, I had a new family.

A family of freedom. Peace. Friendship.

Pigs.

And this was a family I could live in.

Okay guys, there is literally only an epilogue to go, then on to the next book with episodes 5,6,7 and 8.

To those OCs who weren't mentioned: They will be mentioned in the next book. I promise.

Anyway...

Who is your favourite character out of the five characters (of mine) that went to Warrior Cats?

Foxspirit, Falconblaze, Frostwish, Wolfshine or Runningsun?

Shrewpaw was cute, but he is an OC from someone else, so I would prefer it if you voted for the five above.
