Later, a few Atlanteans were loading a stoned vehicle in the form of a Narwhal called a Nartak.
"Atlantis will always honor your names forever." Kida said placing a crystal necklace on Vinny like with everyone else. "I only wish there was more we could do for you."
"Uh, you know, thanks anyway... but, uh, I think we're good." Vinny said turning to the Nartak as the Atlanteans continue loading.
"They'll take you as far as the surface." Milo said.
"We are really gonna miss you, Milo." Audrey said.
"You know, I'm gonna reopen the flower shop and I'm gonna think of you guys every single day Monday through Friday, 9:00 to 5:00, Saturday until 2:00." Vinny said to Milo. "Sunday... I'm gonna take Sunday off probably, and... Maybe I'll go in for a couple of hours, you know... but August, I'm gonna take August."
Then Cookie went up to Milo. "I ain't so good at speechifyin'... but I wanted you to have this." He held out a large jar of grease. "It's the bacon grease from the whole trip."
"Cookie, I..." Milo said.
Cookie then muttered and walks off. "Aw..."
Then Audrey rushed in and kissed his cheek and attempts to punch him as Milo flinched. "Ah-ah. 2 for flinching." She then punched his arm. "See you, Milo." She then walks off.
"Hey, Milo!" Mole said. "Heh heh!"
Milo turns to him as Mole had his arms out for a hug and had some dirt on him from a recent dig and flies flew around as they buzzed.
Milo then laughed. "Mole. Mole. Wow. Hey, well... goodbye, Mole." He patted Mole's head.
"Now, are you sure you wanna stay?" Sweet asked. "There's a hero welcome waiting for the man who discovered Atlantis."
"You'll be making history." Chris said.
"Ah, I don't think the world needs another hero." Milo said. "Besides, I hear there's an opening down here for an expert in gibberish."
"Well, if you're sure." Martin said.
"You take good care of yourself, Milo Thatch." Sweet said approaching him.
"Yeah." Milo said as Sweet brought his hand out. "You, too, Sweet." And he took his hand.
"Come here." Sweet suddenly pulls into a hug.
Sweet hugs Milo tightly earning a few cracks from his back. "Unh! Sweet, uh, before you go, could you..."
Sweet turns him around. "No problem."
He then fixed Milo's neck as it cracked.
"Ah. Oh. Thanks." Milo said.
"Ha ha ha! Oh, you're getting a bill." Sweet said.
"Can we go home now?" Packard asked.
"Come on, y'all." Sweet said. "Let's get 1 last shot in front of the fish."
"Narwhals are not fish." Chris said.
They then gathered around in front of the Nartak as an Atlantean was at the camera.
"Say "Gochk"." He said.
"Gochk." They all said.
The picture was then taken as it shutters clicks.
At his mansion, Whitmore looked at the photo and lowers it as everyone was all dressed after returning. And have filled him of what has happened and that they decided the world was not yet ready for Atlantis.
"Now, let's go over it again, just so we got it straight." Whitmore said. "You didn't find anything?"
"Nope." Vinny said. "Just a lot of rocks, and fish, little fish. Sponges."
Whitmore looks a photo of the Atkirak and Martag fleet as Milo was in his.
"And a diving Sperm Whale." Chris said.
"What happened to Helga?" Whitmore inquired.
"Well, we lost her when a flaming zeppelin come down on her." Cookie said.
Packard then whacked him on the head with her umbrella.
"Missing." Cookie said.
"That's right?" Whitmore said. "And Rourke?"
"Nervous breakdown." Sweet said. "You could say he went all to pieces."
"In fact, you could say he was transamorgafied, and then busted into a zillion..." Cookie said and glanced at Packard's umbrella ready to whack him again. "Ahem. He's missing, too."
"What about Milo?" Whitmore inquired.
"Went down with the sub." Audrey said with Fluffy.
Then Mole was heard grunted as she and Sweet turn to him with his shirt off and burrowing into a vase and squeezed into it.
"Ah ha ha!" Mole chuckled.
"Lord, have mercy." Aviva shook her head.
"Lord, give me strength." Sweet shook his head.
"Ohh." Whitmore sadly sighed. "I'm gonna miss that boy." He switched the photos around seeing one of Milo with Kida. "At least he's in a better place now." He switched the photo around, and then saw a small package as it was to him from Milo.
Whitmore held the package, and then unties and opens it as a blue light shined as it was the photo of Milo as a boy with Thaddeus, with a letter and a crystal necklace.
Dear Mr. Whitmore,
Whitmore held the necklace and looks at the letter.
I hope this piece of proof is enough for you.
It sure convinced me!
Thanks from both
of us - Milo Thatch
Whitmore turns to the necklace and then he placed it on as it then flashed.
In Atlantis, Milo in Atlantean clothing finishes carving a stone as Kida stood by in royal clothing.
Kida held her crystal sad at the loss of her father, and then went over to the stone removing her crystal. And then she gently blows her crystal as it lit up, and she placed the crystal over the stone as the carved lines lit up.
And the stone carved in the form of Kashekim as it rumbled as it then lifts into the as they and the other Atlanteans watched it.
Milo and Kida watched it float higher as then Kida drags Milo with her rushing off.
They then quickly climbed up the side of a statue. and soon reached the top as a flock of Parrot Lizards screeched as they flew off. And Kida stood on the top of the statue as Milo joined her and they held hands.
They watched as the stone lifts higher into the air, and joins the other carved stones rotating around the crystal heart. A Martag flies through the air as well as a few Atkiraks, and even some Ketaks, and other stone craft in the shape of rays and Nartaks and other stone craft shaped like Needlefish and even a sea turtle.
As they all fly over the great city of Atlantis: the lost empire that is no longer lost.
The stone craft continues flying around through the air as then an Atkirak appeared, and flies by.

Author's Note:
And that is a story wrap-up.
Atlantis: The Lost Empire is in my favorites of Disney films. And if it ever gets the chance to have a live-action remake, I would truly be waiting to see it and wish Disney luck when and if they do.
And if Atlantis truly does exists, then perhaps somewhere in the world, will have that 1 shred of proof.
