the surviving warriors return

"Thats perfect."

*I nuzzle her back.*

Goldenstar turns towards Otter and says, "Thank you for everything!" Goldenstar says as she goes to get Zenya and Boldy. Zenya and Boldy follow Goldenstar back to the entrance where Zen and Otter are. Goldenstar then goes into the air motion ing for them to follow her to the Crystal meadows. Zenya and Boldy follow.
(We can continue the post on Tessi arrives)

Otter: I have to stay here.

Zen: *nods, then goes over to star.*

Goldenstar flies off to crystal meadows with Zenya and Boldy at her side.

*Zen follows, Otter watching.*

Mira:
all the bodies are carefully layed in the infirmary and i sigh with tears falling from my eyes. i turn to the king "your only survivor is otter. i am sorry, sir" i bow low and tend to cleaning the bodies and preparing them for the peace of the grave

Bear:
i sigh and nod. then i help her with the bodies

Mira:
when the bosies were ready, bear and i took them to the grave yard.

(please, all celtics. pay your respects to these noble animals. they stopped mink from destroying all u loved.)

Mira:
the king and i arrive back in the castle with torn souls and tears dried upon our faces. we payed no mind to anything or anyone. they collapsed on the ground with fresh tears streaming from their eyes.

*Otter goes off to the grave yard.*

Mira:
i stand up and bow to the king, sweeping my body in a gracefull arc. "i must leave for now, my king. but i will return" i spread my wings and flew out of the cave

*Otter returns after paying her respects.*

Bear:
i smiled at otter "thank u, otter. it means the world to me" i bow to her

"I felt it was right, to pay respects to the warriors fighting next to me. How many have survived?"

Bear:
i sighed. "only u and i, my friend. thank Nyx that my family wasnt there"

*Otter looked down.*

"I didnt know I was the only one, with you."

Bear:
i gave a bitter laugh "all the others ran like cowards...."

"I didnt kill her..... She will find me again."

Bear:
i nod. "mink will do the same for me... we can only hope for the best"

"There is not much to hope for now, only that the next war will not rage for some time."

Bear;
i nodded in agreement. "i hope no one comes to visit. i am not in the mood for company"

*She looks around.*

"It is so empty, without the warriors."

Zero trots inside the cave, and walks over to where Bear and Otter are. He bows down infront of bear while saying, "Hello! I am here to help you fight! I know there isn't a battle right now, but I don't have anywhere else to go! I am merely asking you to let me fight beside you. and for me to rest here until the next battle." Zero said as he waited for Bear to say he could get up.

Bear:
i stood up and groaned. "yes, u can stay here, young one. ur room is down the hall, three doors down to the left. got that?" i asked tiredly "food will already be there. if u need somthing come and get me. please dont yell" i manageda smile

*I look at Bear.*

"Maybe you should get some rest."

Zero gets up, and nods. "Thank- you sir!" he says as he walks off towards his room. He arrives at his room and eats some of the food there. he gets a couple of sips of water before he goes to sleep.
