Springshine's head was killing her.

Or maybe it was just all the water that had been pounding her skull?

At the moment, she didn't care. She needed to get out of the pool of water at the base of the waterfall.

Somehow, through her pain, she found her paws standing shakily on solid ground and pulled herself onto the shore, scowling a bit as dirt stuck onto her wet fur.

Springshine stayed there for a moment before clambering to her paws, her head pounding and her ears ringing. Squinting through her pain filled haze, she could make out something behind the waterfall.

An entrance to a cave.

There were no ledges leading to the cave....the only way was to go through the waterfall.

Grimacing at the thought, Springshine tried to get as close to the cave as possible.

I have to get there.

Summoning what energy she had left, Springshine sprang forward, eyes shut and ears flattened against her skull.

It seemed like the water was battering her body for eternity.

It's the only way I'll survive!

And suddenly, wet rock was underneath her paws.

Surprised by this, Springshine slipped and fell into her side. She cried out as her sore body hit the ground, but her voice was drowned out by the waterfall.

Water....the sound of rain always made her fall asleep, even she had a bellyache. Listening to the constant thundering of the waterfall, Springshine closed her eyes to sleep.
