Hey, I'm back! Sorry about yet another wait! School has been getting ridiculous since final exams are coming up. In this case, I may or may not be able to upload my next story that I had planned until after May 24th. Regardless, here's another chapter!

Soon, after all the commotion had settled, Kate began to make her way back through the crowd. She noticed the Star of Earth emitting a beam of light straight downward. She, and many others, looked up to see a gray wolf, covered in a white aura, slowly descending downward.

Humphrey… Kate thought anxiously. The glowing patterns on his skin had vanished, and the Crystal was now glowing on it's own again. Kate stepped under the beam (ignoring the people watching her) and held out her arms as Humphrey slowly came down. She helped to lay him on the ground, and when she did, she noticed his eyes were closed. This didn't happen during his Nova state on the night of the sleepover. Once he was on the ground, the light beam and his aura both went out. Humphrey let out a faint, low hum, and then his eyelids flickered. Tears came to Kate's eyes as this happened. Humphrey looked up at her.

"Kate…" he said, disoriented, "…have I ever told you…how I…" he didn't finish, as Kate wrapped her arms around him, lifting him from the ground slightly.

"Humphrey!" She said, still crying, "I'm so glad you're back! We were all so worried about you…"

Humphrey returned Kate's hug, "Yeah…but at least it's over. Damn…that was insane."

At that moment, Shaky, Salty, and Mooch all came up to them, with their jaws hanging and eyes wide as hotcakes. "Dude." Said Shaky, "What…"

"…was…" said Salty.

"…that!?" Mooch finished.

Humphrey sat up, "Something that my family's had for a long time…" he said.

"Uh-uh." Said Salty, "No way in Hell that was real."

Kate smiled, "Well, guess what? It is real. It happened, and you saw it."

Suddenly, two wolves showed up after Kate finished. "Humphrey! That was you!?" the male wolf said.

"What happened?" the female said. Humphrey stood up to see that this was Mr. Kennedy and Ms. Browning, his English and Algebra teachers.

"Well," Kate explained the whole story; how Humphrey went into a Nova state, how his family got the power from the Star of Earth floating above Jasper now, and how it gave it's power to Humphrey to save Jasper.

"No…something like this is impossible." Said Ms. Browning.

"And yet, there it is." Said Mr. Kennedy, pointing to the Star of Earth and it's revolving Starsoul stones. "Any reason this all happened, though?" he asked the group.

"…It kinda centered around me. Let's just say…I indirectly pissed Humphrey off." Said Kate.

Ms. Browning chuckled, "You kids have some of the craziest adventures when school gets out, y'know?"

All of them laughed, "It's true. Unexpected things happen in the world outside of school." Said Humphrey.

After the two teacher's left, Mooch spoke: "So, Humphrey. Did it, like…hurt?" he asked.

Humphrey exhaled, "Well, actually…it felt like the biggest energy boast I ever got in my life. It made me feel like I could run for miles, or lift an eighteen-wheeler." The group laughed again.

"Yeah, I bet I could use that to get me on the school football team." Said Salty, "Then Janice will have an even better outlook on me."

Kate and Humphrey decided to step away from the other three when they started discussing. "Listen, Kate." Said Humphrey, "While I was up there…I became aware of some of the Crystal's properties."

Kate tilted her head, "Whaddya mean?" she asked.

Humphrey looked up at the Crystal, "Kate…I want you to…join me."

Kate knew what he meant, despite his little elaboration, "…Yes, Humphrey. I will do it." That was all she said before she and Humphrey started to walk to the middle of the plaza. Humphrey closed his eyes, and then a beam of light came straight downward from the Crystal on them. Several wolves came over to see what it was doing. Humphrey encased Kate in his arms, and Kate held herself against Humphrey as well. The silver aura appeared around Humphrey, and both him and Kate started to drift upwards towards the Star of Earth.

It was about halfway up that the aura encased Kate as well. As they were about to enter the Crystal, Kate shut her eyes. When they did, the Starsoul stones began to increase in speed, and the Crystal dimmed briefly before gradually getting brighter again. The stones reached a very fast speed, and a wind was coming from the point directly underneath the Crystal, going in all directions. After a minute or so, the stones slowed, and both Kate and Humphrey descended from the Star of Earth, but this time, Kate didn't appear to be holding on to Humphrey. Both of them made it to the ground, their silver aura vanished, and the light beam dimmed. Both collapsed on all fours, and slowly stood up.

"…Did it work?" Kate asked, "…I still feel the same."

Humphrey nodded, "I'm sure it did." He replied.

Shaky, Salty, and Mooch all came up to the two again. "Humphrey! What did you do this time?" Shaky asked.

"Well," Humphrey began, "me and Kate…now share the same energy."

All three of them looked amazed. "You mean…you put some of that power…into her!?" Salty questioned.

"Yes." Said Humphrey. Kate was now, like Humphrey, a Starsoul. She could now utilize the same energy properties as Humphrey and the Star of Earth. Humphrey was sure that there was no other way they could possibly be together.

"Humphrey…all of these things that have happened…they've made me realize my true feelings for you." Said Kate.

Humphrey began to blush heavily, "Aw, it's nothing. I'm sure it would have happened before all of this." He said, rubbing the back of his head.

"Possibly," Kate replied, "but, I'm still glad that, through all of these unlikely and dangerous events, you and me ended up together."

Together? Humphrey thought. He had a hunch of what Kate meant, and was pretty sure that he was right about it. All he did, though, was simply nod, "Yeah, me too. Anyways, I'm gonna head home and crash for the night. You oughta get some rest too."

Kate smiled, "Alright, I'll see you tomorrow, hopefully. Goodnight, Humphrey."

"Goodnight, Kate." Humphrey replied, waving as he walked away.

It had been just about the strangest and most unusual event in recorded history, though many in other places found it to be potentially skeptical and fictional, though many who saw this phenomenon with their own eyes supported this claim. Several people electronically recorded this and put it on the internet, though there are rumors that people believe it was a digitally altered. Oh well, seeing may not be believing, though believing is seeing. If you need ask what it means, you may never understand.

I may have been a little lazy for this chapter, but that's just because of my horrible time schedule. Thankfully, I may only have one more chapter to do, or more depending on my thoughts. My second fic is almost finished! I'm so close (once more)! Keep holding on…
