The group is resting next to a small pond in the Evergreen Forest. Snap is laying down with the head band he got from Dart wrapped around his head so that it covers his eyes. Dart was sitting next to him on a stump cleaning green blood off his sword. Rose was with Shana, trying to heal her with healing fog. Shana is laying unconscious next to rose with a large cut on her stomach. Last of all Zeig is off in another part of the forest getting fire wood.
Snap rises to a sitting position and pushes the headband up to keep his long platinum hair out of his face.
Snap: Hey, Dart. What is this Meru like?
Dart: Oh, man she is crazy and very curious. But if it wasn't for her we never could have beat Melbu.
Snap: What weapon does she use?
Dart: A large hammer.
Snap: Hmm...Not exactly my hottest choice but everybody is different,
Dart: There you go. The best way to describe her, Different.
Snap: I see.
A loud scream is heard from deep in the forest.
Snap: What was that?
Dart: I don't know but that is the way dad went.
Snap: (grabbing his swords from the ground) Let's go check it out, Dart.
Rose you stay with Shana.
Rose: Ok but you two be careful.
Snap: Oh come on. Me and Dart are like the world's best sword fighter.
Rose: True but Zeig is also one of the best.
Snap: Good point.
Dart: If that was my dad we don't have time to sit and talk.
Snap: Yet another good point.
Snap begins to run towards the sound with Dart following close behind. They both have their swords ready and are ready to strike. A loud roar comes from the direction they are running. Snap knows the roar and the thing that made it.
Snap: That was a dragon's roar!!!
Dart: What?
Snap: That was a dragon's roar with the wind element!!
Dart: Like Feyrbrand?
Snap: Yeah like that.
Dart speeds up as they come to a cliff. Down beneath them a green dragon is attacking Zeig and a woman. Dart is about to jump when Snap pulls him back.
Dart: Let me go!!(Struggles to get loose.
Snap: (looking him dead in the eyes) Transform into dragoon before you go down so that woman won't see you.
Dart:(realizing the logic)OK. Here we go!!
Dart transforms into the Divine Dragoon and then jumps down in front of his father. Snap crosses his arms and does a quck change into his armor. A bling light emergess from his body and when it dims he is the Plasma Dragoon. He jumps down as well and looks at Zeig and the woman.
Snap: RUN!!! We'll take care of him.(winks at Zeig.)
Zeig and the woman do as told. That is after Zeig returns the wink.
Dart: Why didn't dad transform?
Snap: DUH!! Because the woman was there. If anybody sees us we'll be the talk of the town making it hard for us when we go after EVIL!
Dart: (again realizing the logic)Oh.
Snap drops his left sword and equips his canon. He aims it and it begins to charge.
Snap: Plasma Dragoon
The light from the canon is blinding Dart's right eye, but not his left because of his aiming lens on his headband.
Snap: Canon!!!!!
A wide stream of fire erupts from the canon and flies true to it's target. After hitting the dragon the stream shoots for the sun. The ground shakes as the stream bounces off the sun and comes back at the dragon as a bigger, more powerful laser. Once it hits the dragon the dragon melts into nothing more than a green puddle of udalating Scales. In the middle of the puddle a small orb glowed brightly.
Dart: Is that a Dragoon spirit??
Snap: (returning to normal) Yes it is. It is like the Jade Dragoon but with more power.
Dart: (also returning to normal)What are we going to do with it?
Snap: (Retrieveing the glowing green orb) Keep it until we find a suited host.
Dart: OK. Let's go check on dad and that woman.
Snap: Yeah.
They run down the trail that Zeig and that woman had ran earlier. They found both of them near a old tree as Zeig was trying to comfort the woman.
Zeig: Listen, I think those two armored people can take care of themselves
Woman: What makes you say that?? That beast was a dragon.
Zeig: Oh don't be rediculous dragons went extict many hundreds of years ago.
Woman: Were you just born yesterday? Dragons have been spotted all over the world. They have risen from the dead!
Zeig: All over the world??
Woman: Yeah. The boat I came here from Serdio in was attacked by a large sea dragon.
Zeig: you don't say?
Woman: I do say!
Snap and Dart ran to Zeig and hugged him.
Snap: Oh, papa where were you??
Dart:Yes we have looked all over for you.
Zeig: Well I was getting some fire wood when a beast attaked me and this fine lady here. She says it was a dragon.
Dart: (stepping back from Zeig) A REAL DRAGON???
Snap: (also Steping back) I thought you told us all dragons were dead papa??
Zeig: Well it appears they have risen form the dead.
Snap: (Pretending to be scared) From the dead??
Zeig: Yes, Son from the dead.
Woman: Well, I really must leave.
She walks off and leaves "Papa" with his two "Sons". They all laugh.
Dart: Nice one, Snap.
Snap: Yeah, it did work rather well.
Zeig: Well come along, sons we gotta be heading back to your mother and your sister.
They all laugh again and walk back to the camp site. Shana was up now and when the guys walked up she looked at each one ver closely. She was crying.
Shana:(Looking Snap over) Are you alright?
Snap: ????
Shana: (Now looking at Dart) What about you?
Dart : ????
Shana: (looking at Zeig last)You seem fine.
Zeig: (To Rose)What is up with her??
Rose: She woke up when she heard the roar and knew it was a dragon. She got worried when you guys took so long. Where were you?
Dart: This lady was attacked also so dad couldn't morph. After Snap took him out we had to act like Zeig was our father.
Snap: You mean I had to act. Zeig really is your father.
Dart: Yeah Snap had to act like Zeig was his dad.
Zeig: And he made quite a fine son.(Tousles Snap's platinum hair)
Snap: Thank you, papa.
Everybody in the camp laughs.
Snap:Well we best move into the next town before we go to the Forest of Winglies.
Dart: Why???
Snap: Just because some have accepted a life with humans doesn't mean they all have, Dart.
Dart: Oh
They head into Furni, The water city. Once they arrive Dart looks around.
Dart: Not much has changed in eight years.
Rose: Nope it is still a city flooded with water forcing the people here to use boats for transportation.
Snap: Yeah well were shall we go.
Dart : Let's split up. I'll go to get the weapons and armor. Dad you go get the items. Shana you and Rose go reserve some rooms at the hotel. and Snap you go see if you can get any info from the bar.
Snap: Sounds like a great idea to me.
Zeig: Me too.
Dart: Ok when we are all done we will meet at the hotel.
All: Ok
Snap walks over to a dock and asks the man in the boat.
Snap: Can I get a ride to the bar?
Man: Sure, Hop in.
Snap: Thanks.
Snap gets in the boat and the guy pushes off with the oar.
Snap: Nice day for fishing.
Man: Yeah. In fact my grandson and I plan on going right after I get off work.
Snap: That's sounds nice.
Man: Yeah only problem is that dragon in the sea.
Snap: Dragon?
Man: Yeah, but I don't have to worry that after a while.
Snap: Why not??
Man: The mayor hired alot of hunter to kill it so. You see, out main export is fish. So if the dragon is killing them then we grow poor.
Snap: I see.
Man: Here we are. That will be 10 gold.
Snap:(Handing the man 100 gold)Keep the tip.
Man: Wait, I can't take this.
Snap: Yeah you can you earned it.
Man: How???
Snap: For the information you gave me.
Man: Oh, may Soa Bless you young man.
Snap: Go and have a good time with your grandson. If you catch alot I'll buy some from you for 200 gold each. I'll be staying at the hotel. Just ask for Snap Feld party of five.
Man: Ok By the way can I bring my grandson. you seem like the kind of influence that I would enjoy being around him.
Snap: Sure. Tell me what does your grandson like.
Man: He likes the stars. He says he going to go to Fletz when he gets older and study under the great Fester.
Snap: I'll be sure to tell Fester that the next time I see him.
Man: you know Fester?
Snap: Yeah. I'm an wandering warrior. I was in Fletz about this time last year.
Man: My grandson would love to meet you.
Snap: (walking away) Well bring him to the hotel later so I can meet him. Good bye.
As Snap entered the bar the man smiled.
Man: Please, Soa Bless that child.
Inside the bar Snap walk to the counter and takes a seat on one of the stools.
Snap: I would like a brandy and some information.
The bartender Reaches down grabs a glass and a bottle of brandy.
Bartender: I'm Yoji. What kind of information do you want and what is the price you're willing to pay for it.( Puts the glass on the table and pours the brandy)
Snap:(takes a sip)Good stuff. I want to know about the hunters going after the sea dragon. and I'll pay you 500 gold.
Yoji: Well for 500 gold I'd tell you where the king keeps his jewels. Ok, listen up. You see that guy over there in the corner. (points to a muscular teen in the corner.) That's Reiko. He's the best bet to take the prize.
Snap looks over at the teen. He is very muscular and carries two red katanas one on each side of his waist. He is wearing platinum armor over a black shirt, and black pants with black combat boots. He is gulping down some fish and drinking some alcahol that Snap can't recognize.
Snap: What's he drinking?
Yoji: Dragon Source. It is very strong and has dragon's blood mixed in it. Not very many people can handle it.
Snap puts his empty glass down and turns back to Yoji.
Snap: Give me a glass.
Yoji: You got the 350 gold to pay for it?
Snap: Yeah.
Yoji: Ok(Pours a red beverage into snap's glass. Steam rises from the glass and makes Snap's chin hot.)
Snap: Wow! (He takes a drink. Or actually Drinks it all in one gulp. Then places the glass down.) Double wow!!
Yoji: Man, only Reiko can drink a whole glass of that stuff in one gulp.
Snap: Make that Reiko and I are the only ones who can.
Yoji: Well anyway if Reiko gets that prize then he'll be sitting pretty high for a long time.
Snap: How much is the prize.
Yoji: 1,000,000 gold.
Snap: Wow!!
Yoji: Yeah but he won't be able to keep comfortable with it.
Snap: Why??
Yoji: Behemoth already said that if anybody other than him wins that they will wish they were never born.
Snap: Behemoth??
Yoji: Imagine your worst nightmare then times it by 300.
Snap: DAMN!!
Yoji: Yeah that would be it. Behemoth is the reason a lot of guys are not entering the hunt.
Snap:Uh-huh. Well I'm gonna go talk to Reiko.
Snap gives Yoji 1000 gold and heads for Reiko's table. Halfway there he feels a wierd aura.
Snap: It's The Omni Dragoon Spirit. Brother to the Divine and Plasma Dragon.
Snap walks over and sits down. Reiko's eyes never leave his fish.
Snap: (Whispering)So how long have you been a Dragoon.
Reiko's eyes go wide and he chokes on his fish. Snap hits him one good time on the back. The peice of fish flies from Reiko's mouth all the way across the room and lands in a very rich looking man's lap.
Reiko: Thank you. (whispering) How do you Know I am a Dragoon. .
Snap: (whispering) Oh let's just say that me and you are like brothers.(points to the middle of his Armor.)
Reiko:I see. I think we should talk elsewhere.
Snap: Me too.
They leave the table and go up to the roof of the bar. Once there Snap sits down with his legs crossed in front of him. Reiko does the same.
Reiko: What did you mean down there about us being like brothers??
Snap: One, we are both half wingly. Two, we both are dragoons ,and three, the dragons that are Dragoon Spirit comes from are triplets along with the Divine Dragon.
Reiko: Well I see we do have a lot in common. I thought my Draggon Spirit was the Strongest.
Snap: No. Me, you ,and my friend Dart are tied for second. First being the Forbiden Dragon Dragoon Spirit.
Reiko: Forbiden Dragoon??
Snap: Yeah. It is the strongest of all. It's weakest attack could take out both the earth in the moon.
Reiko: Wow!!
Snap: Yeah. Hey, do you want to join us other dragoons?
Reiko: Other Dragoons?? How many dragoons are they??
Snap: A lot. You see every Dragon carries a Dragoon spirit.
Reiko: Hmm. Has your spirit been telling you that you should be somewhere else??
Snap: Yeah it did but then I started to do the quest it told me to do and it quit.
Reiko: What is this quest.
Snap: To Unite all Dragoons to fight against a man who wants to destroy the world.
Reiko: But you just said there were many Dragoon Spirits.
Snap: Yeah but they will only accept certain hosts.
Reiko: What are the requirements to be a host?
Snap: Different spirits, different requirements. One of the more common ones is to be a descendant of one of the first Dragoons that lived 11,000 years ago.
Reiko: That must have been mine. I am a descendant of Kanzas, the first Thunder Dragoon. Tell me how you know so much??
Snap: You are pretty young for a wingly, But I on the other hand have live for 1900 years.
Reiko: I have lived for only 18 years.
Snap: Exactly. Wisdom comes from age. So are you gonna join us?
Reiko: Maybe after I take out the Sea Dragon.
Snap:What about Behemoth?
Reiko: I'm not scared of him.
Snap: OK well we'll be here a few days so if you want in drop by.
Snap jumps from the roof of the bar to the sidewalk on the other side. Behind him Reiko leaves.
Reiko: I don't need them. I can handle all my problems by my self.
Snap walks back to the hotel and checks in to his room with Dart and Zeig. The Girls were staying across the hall. Zeig is on the bed in the middle already asleep and Dart was carefully looking over the weapons he had brought from the weapon shop. Snap begins looking at them, too.
Snap: Nice Craftsmanship.
Dart: Yeah they are really good.
Snap: How much did they cost?
Dart:(digging through his pocket.) Here is the receipt.
Snap looked it over. it read like this
Turbulent Arrow.....200 Gold
Death Slash............250 Gold
Marasame..............376 Gold
Advanced Sword...459 Gold
Red Tank Armor....654 Gold
Orange Tank Armor.654 Gold
Dark Blue Tank Armor.654 Gold
White Tank Armor....654 Gold
Red breastplate.......300 Gold
______________________
Total....................4201 Gold
Snap: (checking the math in his head)Ok the price is right. What is this Tank Armor??
Dart: The newest, best Armor. It protects just like the Armor Of Legend.
Snap: Did you test it ? I mean Armor of Legend for 700 Gold doesn't sound quite right.
Dart: Yeah I tested it and it usually is 100000 Gold, but I saved the owner's little boy eight years ago from a wolf named Kamuy.
Snap: I see. Why did you get a red breastplate??
Dart: For dad. I didn't have enough to buy him a Tank Armor. And he has no amor.
Snap: You dad wears armor all the time.(Points to Zeig on the bed wearing his usual red armor suit.) See?
Dart: Yeah
Rose steps in and looks at Snap.
Rose: There is a man here to see you about buying some fish. What do we need fish for?
Snap:(walking to the door)I like fish. I like it alot.(He winks as he exits.)
Downstairs the ferry man and a little boy are looking at the map of the world. Snap walks over to them.
Snap: Hello. Nice to see you again.
The man and the boy turn around. The byoy hides behind the man's leg.
Man: I'm sorry. He is very shy.
Snap: That's ok. Oh I didn't catch your name earlier.
Man: Oh I'm Trey Derny. And this is my grandson Seth. Seth this is the man I told you about earlier. He knows Fester.
Seth didn't move just spoke from behind Trey's leg.
Seth: Do you really know Fester?
Snap: I sure do. He taught me about the moon that never sets that did set. In fact he gave me this.
Snap reaches into his bag and pulls out a telescoptic telescope. He hands it to the boy.
Snap: You look through that end.(pointing to the small end) And you can see the stars at night more closely.
Seth: Wow!! (his face lights up) You can see stars with this?
Snap: Yep . Tell you what You can have that and these.
Snap digs down in his bag again and pulls out some glowing white stones. He also hands them to the kid.
Snap: You know what these are?
Seth: No. But they are pretty.
Snap: They are called Stardust and it is said that if you make a really pure wish while holding ten of them that the wish will come true.
Seth:(Brightly)REALLY!!WOW!!
Snap: That is what they say.
Trey: Thank you, Snap.
Snap: So Seth, did you catch any fish today?
Seth: (nodding)Yes I caught this many.(He holds up eight fingers)
Snap: So Trey you have any fish for me to buy?
Trey: Yes but after all you have done for us you don't have to buy them.
Snap: I don't have to but I am gonna anway. How many did you get?
Trey: 12. I need 4 of them so that leaves 8.
Snap:(giving Trey 1700 gold)Here you go.
Trey: (Trying to give 100 gold back)You said 200 for each.
Snap: Yeah well I give you a tip.
Trey: Soa bless you!!!
Snap: As he will bless you.
Trey leaves with Seth.Snap smiles as they leave.
*********************************************
END OF CHAPTER 7
What do ya'll think of the Plasma Dragoon Canon.
Thanks go to Toks Osindele for Reiko.
Let me know what age to make Zeig, Because I am gonna do that next chapter.
Snap rises to a sitting position and pushes the headband up to keep his long platinum hair out of his face.
Snap: Hey, Dart. What is this Meru like?
Dart: Oh, man she is crazy and very curious. But if it wasn't for her we never could have beat Melbu.
Snap: What weapon does she use?
Dart: A large hammer.
Snap: Hmm...Not exactly my hottest choice but everybody is different,

A loud scream is heard from deep in the forest.
Snap: What was that?
Dart: I don't know but that is the way dad went.
Snap: (grabbing his swords from the ground) Let's go check it out, Dart.
Rose you stay with Shana.
Rose: Ok but you two be careful.
Snap: Oh come on. Me and Dart are like the world's best sword fighter.
Rose: True but Zeig is also one of the best.
Snap: Good point.
Dart: If that was my dad we don't have time to sit and talk.
Snap: Yet another good point.
Snap begins to run towards the sound with Dart following close behind. They both have their swords ready and are ready to strike. A loud roar comes from the direction they are running. Snap knows the roar and the thing that made it.
Snap: That was a dragon's roar!!!

Snap: (looking him dead in the eyes) Transform into dragoon before you go down so that woman won't see you.

Snap: RUN!!! We'll take care of him.(winks at Zeig.)

Dart: Why didn't dad transform?
Snap: DUH!! Because the woman was there. If anybody sees us we'll be the talk of the town making it hard for us when we go after EVIL!
Dart: (again realizing the logic)Oh.
Snap drops his left sword and equips his canon. He aims it and it begins to charge.
Snap: Plasma Dragoon
The light from the canon is blinding Dart's right eye, but not his left because of his aiming lens on his headband.
Snap: Canon!!!!!
A wide stream of fire erupts from the canon and flies true to it's target. After hitting the dragon the stream shoots for the sun. The ground shakes as the stream bounces off the sun and comes back at the dragon as a bigger, more powerful laser. Once it hits the dragon the dragon melts into nothing more than a green puddle of udalating Scales. In the middle of the puddle a small orb glowed brightly.
Dart: Is that a Dragoon spirit??

Snap: Oh, papa where were you??
Dart:Yes we have looked all over for you.
Zeig: Well I was getting some fire wood when a beast attaked me and this fine lady here. She says it was a dragon.
Dart: (stepping back from Zeig) A REAL DRAGON???

Zeig: Well it appears they have risen form the dead.
Snap: (Pretending to be scared) From the dead??
Zeig: Yes, Son from the dead.
Woman: Well, I really must leave.
She walks off and leaves "Papa" with his two "Sons". They all laugh.
Dart: Nice one, Snap.
Snap: Yeah, it did work rather well.
Zeig: Well come along, sons we gotta be heading back to your mother and your sister.
They all laugh again and walk back to the camp site. Shana was up now and when the guys walked up she looked at each one ver closely. She was crying.
Shana:(Looking Snap over) Are you alright?
Snap: ????
Shana: (Now looking at Dart) What about you?
Dart : ????
Shana: (looking at Zeig last)You seem fine.
Zeig: (To Rose)What is up with her??
Rose: She woke up when she heard the roar and knew it was a dragon. She got worried when you guys took so long. Where were you?
Dart: This lady was attacked also so dad couldn't morph. After Snap took him out we had to act like Zeig was our father.

Snap: How much is the prize.
Yoji: 1,000,000 gold.

Snap walks over and sits down. Reiko's eyes never leave his fish.
Snap: (Whispering)So how long have you been a Dragoon.
Reiko's eyes go wide and he chokes on his fish. Snap hits him one good time on the back. The peice of fish flies from Reiko's mouth all the way across the room and lands in a very rich looking man's lap.
Reiko: Thank you. (whispering) How do you Know I am a Dragoon. .
Snap: (whispering) Oh let's just say that me and you are like brothers.(points to the middle of his Armor.)
Reiko:I see. I think we should talk elsewhere.

Reiko: Well I see we do have a lot in common. I thought my Draggon Spirit was the Strongest.
Snap: No. Me, you ,and my friend Dart are tied for second. First being the Forbiden Dragon Dragoon Spirit.
Reiko: Forbiden Dragoon??
Snap: Yeah. It is the strongest of all. It's weakest attack could take out both the earth in the moon.
Reiko: Wow!!
Snap: Yeah. Hey, do you want to join us other dragoons?
Reiko: Other Dragoons?? How many dragoons are they??
Snap: A lot. You see every Dragon carries a Dragoon spirit.
Reiko: Hmm. Has your spirit been telling you that you should be somewhere else??
Snap: Yeah it did but then I started to do the quest it told me to do and it quit.
Reiko: What is this quest.
Snap: To Unite all Dragoons to fight against a man who wants to destroy the world.
Reiko: But you just said there were many Dragoon Spirits.
Snap: Yeah but they will only accept certain hosts.
Reiko: What are the requirements to be a host?
Snap: Different spirits, different requirements. One of the more common ones is to be a descendant of one of the first Dragoons that lived 11,000 years ago.
Reiko: That must have been mine. I am a descendant of Kanzas, the first Thunder Dragoon. Tell me how you know so much??
Snap: You are pretty young for a wingly, But I on the other hand have live for 1900 years.
Reiko: I have lived for only 18 years.
Snap: Exactly. Wisdom comes from age. So are you gonna join us?
Reiko: Maybe after I take out the Sea Dragon.
Snap:What about Behemoth?
Reiko: I'm not scared of him.
Snap: OK well we'll be here a few days so if you want in drop by.
Snap jumps from the roof of the bar to the sidewalk on the other side. Behind him Reiko leaves.
Reiko: I don't need them. I can handle all my problems by my self.
Snap walks back to the hotel and checks in to his room with Dart and Zeig. The Girls were staying across the hall. Zeig is on the bed in the middle already asleep and Dart was carefully looking over the weapons he had brought from the weapon shop. Snap begins looking at them, too.
Snap: Nice Craftsmanship.

Snap: (checking the math in his head)Ok the price is right. What is this Tank Armor??
Dart: The newest, best Armor. It protects just like the Armor Of Legend.
Snap: Did you test it ? I mean Armor of Legend for 700 Gold doesn't sound quite right.
Dart: Yeah I tested it and it usually is 100000 Gold, but I saved the owner's little boy eight years ago from a wolf named Kamuy.
Snap: I see. Why did you get a red breastplate??
Dart: For dad. I didn't have enough to buy him a Tank Armor. And he has no amor.
Snap: You dad wears armor all the time.(Points to Zeig on the bed wearing his usual red armor suit.) See?
Dart: Yeah
Rose steps in and looks at Snap.
Rose: There is a man here to see you about buying some fish. What do we need fish for?
Snap:(walking to the door)I like fish. I like it alot.(He winks as he exits.)
Downstairs the ferry man and a little boy are looking at the map of the world. Snap walks over to them.
Snap: Hello. Nice to see you again.
The man and the boy turn around. The byoy hides behind the man's leg.
Man: I'm sorry. He is very shy.
Snap: That's ok. Oh I didn't catch your name earlier.
Man: Oh I'm Trey Derny. And this is my grandson Seth. Seth this is the man I told you about earlier. He knows Fester.
Seth didn't move just spoke from behind Trey's leg.
Seth: Do you really know Fester?
Snap: I sure do. He taught me about the moon that never sets that did set. In fact he gave me this.
Snap reaches into his bag and pulls out a telescoptic telescope. He hands it to the boy.
Snap: You look through that end.(pointing to the small end) And you can see the stars at night more closely.
Seth: Wow!! (his face lights up) You can see stars with this?
Snap: Yep . Tell you what You can have that and these.
Snap digs down in his bag again and pulls out some glowing white stones. He also hands them to the kid.
Snap: You know what these are?
Seth: No. But they are pretty.
Snap: They are called Stardust and it is said that if you make a really pure wish while holding ten of them that the wish will come true.
Seth:(Brightly)REALLY!!WOW!!
Snap: That is what they say.
Trey: Thank you, Snap.
Snap: So Seth, did you catch any fish today?
Seth: (nodding)Yes I caught this many.(He holds up eight fingers)
Snap: So Trey you have any fish for me to buy?
Trey: Yes but after all you have done for us you don't have to buy them.
Snap: I don't have to but I am gonna anway. How many did you get?
Trey: 12. I need 4 of them so that leaves 8.
Snap:(giving Trey 1700 gold)Here you go.
Trey: (Trying to give 100 gold back)You said 200 for each.
Snap: Yeah well I give you a tip.
Trey: Soa bless you!!!
Snap: As he will bless you.
Trey leaves with Seth.Snap smiles as they leave.
