Sparrowcall nodded, "They'll soon realize what a great leader you are, in time." The medicine cat rose to her paws and tried stretching out her aching limbs, still throbbing from the trip back from the Crystal Pool. It was going to be a hard journey every half moon. Though she didn't want to the elderly she-cat knew that soon she would have to be joining StarClan. It would have to be accepted. After another round of stretching Sparrowcall felt much better, as if several pounds were lifted off of her back and leaving her a new cat. Sighing when she realized the pain would only return the next morning the tortoiseshell turned her pale green gaze to Marblestar, just about to ask her about a new apprentice.
"I want you to do me a favor Sparrowcall. Go to the nursery and speak with the kits. It's time we set you up with an apprentice."
"Oh you read my mind Marblestar," Chuckled Sparrowcall, tail flicking, "It's not fun getting old." It was obvious the medicine cat was not at all offended, but actually quite amused by the subject. Though it was coming fast, the elderly she-cat knew she had several good seasons to go. "I'll have to get some more Goldenrod..." The last sentence was mostly to herself, as she had mumbled it.
"I'm going to my den for a bit before the clan catches me falling asleep on them. If anything happens you and Leopardheart know where to find me."
"Of course, Marblestar, have a good rest." Pale green gaze watched as the new leader padded away, the nest in her new den awaiting her. With a soft sigh Sparrowcall didn't dare sit down out of fear the pain in her joints would come back, so she started out of the den as well, entering the semi-lit clearing and heading for the Nursery.
