They’re gone. I didn’t even get a kiss.

Yona stands Walker up. “You okay, Brother?”

“We’re having a baby.” He’s not okay.

I push him into the crowd waiting to get to Aylen. Knight takes his arm and walks him to her.

Yona laughs. “Atohi is right. The constant activity here is overwhelming. You’re not suffering from it.”

“No, Yona. They’re fuckin’ crazy but they’re mine now.”

He laughs. “I saw and hope my dad did. Your story is starting.” He hugs me singing the song we learned but haven’t sung since I was small. We changed the word but it works. “One tribe, one heart, let’s get together and feel all right.”

I laugh when the crowd by Aylen starts singing. I’ll see Aylen later. We walk and the Brothers are singing. They must have heard the Protectors.

Yona laughs. “I can see this will be a new anthem but not for you.”

I shake my head as someone starts singing on a microphone. Yona points. Ranger is on the stage.

“They’re all fuckin’ crazy.”

He laughs. “You’ve mentioned that and I agree.”

It’s well known. I guess there’s nothing left to say.
