mhm. another fanfic. don't judge.

i've decided i no longer want to be Garten. so instead, he's getting a fanfic. i'm really excited, for one i like the two new ocs, a squirrel and a rabbit...

And KIOWA is in it!!!!!!!!!!!

As Garten looked out over first warren, he felt, in a way, terrified. this war- it was all his fault. the promises hw had made and broken, simple rivalry, it all fell away, leaving sadness.

And then he saw her.

Sween.

all that old anger bubbled inside him, fuming like an errupting volcano. he steered his bird to land on the ship.

he had almost saved himself.

but grudges are terrible things.

Garten sure had a lot of grudges.

Garten leapt from his birds back, landing in a roll.

...five minutes later...

"Come back, Garten!" Whittle cried, extending his hand. Garten wanted too.

but if he did, he would live a miserable life. he thought back, far back.

"I would do it all again." Garten said, dropping from the boat into the sinkhole. away he fell, his quest not to be prisoner of rabbits leaving him to be a prisoner of fear.

Before he ran out of breath, he saw a darting form leap into the sinkhole.

As the thing neared him, Garten could tell he was a rabbit. the small buck grabbed him, pulling Garten to the shore.

After coughing for several minutes, hey began to speak.

"Why- why did you save me?" Garten asked.

"A traitor may mend, Uncle Garten. i myself have."

Garten stared in shock. it was Kiowa Longtreader, his nephew.

"You?" Garten asked.

"Aye, me."

"How?"

"Sometimes it takes a small act of kindness."

A small act of kindness? Garten thought.

ahh. ok. Garten gets another chance!!!!

After being saved from certain doom, Garten Longtreader finds himself searching for redemption.
