Chapter One: Beginning
“Wekeah! Wekeah, wait you rabbit!” I call after my friend. She stops and sticks her tongue out at me.
“What, the big war Chief can’t keep up with a tiny girl?”
“I most cerntainly can, I just ordered you to stop.” I puff.
“Right.” She rolls her eyes. I walk up and sock her lightly on the arm. She looks satisfied.
“So you can’t, then?”
“Oh, hush, or I’m gonna sock you harder!” I tease back. She laughs and takes off again.
With a smile, I follow her. I watch as she runs to a nearby clearing and collapses on the grass. I stretch my arms out to the sky looming overhead and let out a war cry, then chuckle as Wekeah tries to respond with another. I walk over to her and plop down beside her. I sigh, and, putting my hands behind my head, I relax.
Life is good.
Very good.
