Everyone in the herd had been told that Topsy tried to commit suicide. It was heartbreaking for all of them; especially his closest friends and family. Some of them have gotten angry at him for jumping over the Great Wall; however, they were relieved that he didn't die. Sally walked over to Topsy and got up in his face. He had never seen her this angry before in his life; the look on her face sent chills up his spine.
"How could you? Attempting suicide? If you ever do this again and you were saved; I'm gonna kill you!" Sally scolded.
"You don't understand; all your life, you had a father who cared about you; I didn't; my own dad treated me like crap; I've lost two father-figures in my life; first, it was Grandpa, then, it was your dad," Topsy argued.
Sally thought back to Topsy's childhood after her other grandson died; her own son-in-law was a tyrant; and treated Topsy like crap. It was at that moment when Sally bowed her head in shame.
"I'm sorry for getting so angry; it's just that you're my only grandson; and it hasn't been that long since Dad died; the thought of kosing you in the same day made me very scared; I love you very much," Sally explained.
Her expression went from anger to sadness.
Soon enough, the two threehorns nuzzled each other.
"That is just sick, Sally; first you yell at him; now you forgive his foolish stunt; just what kind of threehorn are you?" Kosh snarled.
"The kind that's not an asshole," Sally retorted.
Kosh growled; with his bopper at the ready; he was about to hit Sally; but, Topsy got in the way and took the bopper to the side of his face. Topsy grabbed his cheek in pain and let out a low growl.
"Are you all right? Thanks for taking the hit for me; but, you didn't have to do that," Sally told him.
"Oh; but, I did; I didn't want you to get seriously hurt," Topsy stated.
Sally smiled. However, Kosh was still unimpressed.
"You better hope the next suicide attempt actually kills you," Kosh said in a low voice.
After that encounter, Kosh walked off to his nest.
"What an asshole," Topsy sneered.
Everyone all nodded in agreement. Soon enough, they all prepared for Tyrus' funeral. Just like with the other funerals, Tyrus was placed in a hole surrounded by the other deceased members of the herd. Mr. Thicknose started the ceremony like he usually does. Only this funeral was particularly sadder than normal; it was because of Topsy's suicide attempt. After the funeral was done, the hole that Tyrus was in was filled up with dirt. Soon enough, the herd members went back to their respective nests.
