Epilogue chapter type thing.
"Hello… Blake is that you?" Ana asked over the phone
"Yeah it's me alright." Blake laughed a bit
"Where is everyone it seems quiet on your end of the line?"
"Oh, Hilda's at work at the café down town, Remy and Aaralyn are upstairs doing homework, and Jenna and Christine went to visit Kennard and Coy's graves."
"So how is everyone? I mean it was six months ago but Hilda's been pretty closed on the issue."
"Well Hilda went back
to school for her senior year, I'm sure she already told you, Remy
Aaralyn Christine and I also started high school. Christine's been
training under Jenna and she's really gotten better too I got to
say Jenna knows her stuff, if and when the shaman fight starts back
up I really hope I don't have to fight her." Blake laughed a bit
"That was sad about
Kennard… and that Coy girl too." Ana sighed
"Yeah but I think
everyone moved on now, Fox finally got himself some girlfriend and
Lillian's been taking in students to train. Jenna felt really bad
about it for a while, I know Christine did too but the day of the
funeral Christine just kind of seemed to get peace about it all,
whenever Kennard comes up now she just kind of stares off into the
distance as if she's waiting for him to come back or something…
something I don't think she realizes there's no way he lived,
that or she saw or knows something we didn't."
"And you two are you
still tougher?" Ana asked
"Uhh yeah," Blake
laughed a bit "Actually we decided not to wait and go ahead and get
engaged."
Ana squealed on the
other end of the line Blake had to hold the phone about a foot away
from his ear "THAT'S SO CUTE! WHAT KIND OF WEDDING, BIG SMALL?
WILL CHRISTINE BE WEARING WHITE OR PINK?"
"We haven't thought
about the wedding yet, and no we haven't done that… thing if
that's what you're implying about the dress color I don't know
what Hilda's told you but it's not true."
Ana laughed "Just
kidding about the dress Blake."
"Oh and apparently
Aaralyn and Remington finally confessed they liked each other,
they're the same as they were before though, inseparable. How are
things going in the music biz?"
"Pretty good
actually, I finally finished a full CD, it's supposed to go on sale
in a few months I'm so excited about it, and I'll be going on
tour soon, I was hoping I could visit before that though."
"Drop in anytime, I'm
sure Hilda will be glad to see you likewise with everyone else."
"Speaking of Hilda
could you tell her I said to call me when she gets in from work?"
"Sure, I'll tell
Christine that too to make sure she calls." Blake laughed a bit
"Okay I don't mean
to cut this short but I have to go, behave boy, bye." Ana chirped
"Bye Ana." Blake
said
Life tends to be a
crazy thing, as soon as you've hit what you'd thing was the end
of you adventure it only opens you up for another adventure, each one
leading to something greater and greater, as humans we know nothing
better than to keep going after our dreams no matter how foolish they
may be or how unlikely they may be. As shamans living in the age of
the shaman fight we have a chance to make our foolish dreams come
true, even so there can only be one winner, whoever it turns out to
be we can all either envy them or actually pity them because their
goals were all easily accomplished so what does it leave them to keep
living for after that, if all dreams were possible life wouldn't
have much of a point. I realize that what I want so desperately will
probably be something I'll never be able to achieve in the end
against my better judgment I'll keep trying for it no matter what,
even if I fail in the end at least I can say I might have made some
kind of difference.
-Remington Quennell
I've quietly watched
the boy grow up, I don't give him my opinion I let him have his
own, seeing him reminds me of how it felt having a son he's going
to do very well with life and I want to be here to see it every step
of the way.
-Larch
I'm content with
things but only so in such a way, the only way I'll ever be more
content with things in my life is to try and change things, if I
can't do it I know he can I have complete and total faith in him
and I always have. In the end I know I'll never be alone.
-Aaralyn Ali
Who said anything about
her not having a mother? Seeing her grow up she might as well be my
daughter.
-Angeni
I'll never be miss
sun shine I simply won't allow myself to sink to such a level, I
still don't really have a direction in life but I'm young so it
shouldn't matter, for once in my life I'm just going to kick back
and allow myself to have some fun, I'm in a happy place with happy
people, we've all been through a lot, if they can live past it I
can too as long as we're tougher past mistakes won't matter, I'll
find my true calling in life one day.
-Hilda Wilkes
She's my muse till
the end, since I screwed up when I had life I won't screw up now, I
can't be with her in any romantic way as I do wish was possible but
I can make sure she's happy.
-Charger Chester
I've done plenty to
regret, but I promise I'll make it all up one person at a time,
she's just the beginning, maybe one day I can do something bigger
to redeem myself, maybe one day the Weathers family won't be like
it is, maybe I can have something to do with it.
-Jenna Weathers
As soon as the shaman
fight starts again, and I know it will, I'm going to do my best to
win, I have other options in life but this one seems like the one I
want the most, if I can't win the shaman fight I'll find some
other way to accomplish my dreams, as long as I'm surrounded by
friends and people I love nothing will stop me.
-Blake Onterrie
I have too much to stay
on this world for, there's Blake to whom I owe so much, there's
Koncho who I couldn't bear to leave again, as long as one of them
is around I'll have plenty reason to wonder the earth as a spirit.
-Skya
I'll make my parents
happy since I've still got them, I'm a very lucky kid even more
so in the fact that I can realize just how lucky I am and still be so
young, when the fight starts again I'll win and everyone will be
happy.
-Makei Hickaru
One of the kids I teach
is going to use their shamanic powers to kill, another is going to
give it all up because things might get too tuff out of all of them I
got to believe at least one of them is going to take a good path.
And I got to believe that one day there will be something I can do
for my family, until then I'll wait and pass the time by teaching
more kids what it is to be a shaman.
-Lillian Weathers
Thank you everyone, I'm
glad to have peace.
-Coy Weathers
Being a leader really
has been a burden, being a friend turned out to be a big burden in
the end. Kennard's life didn't have a direction until Stella got
him into watching over Christine, he said seeing someone so young who
had lost so much move on like she did and have a dream like hears had
inspired him. If that's so then I'll have to take his place in
protecting her, and Jenna the sister he never really got to know
likewise, and I'll be sure nothing happens to them and one day
we'll have a way to end the family feud of the Weathers, until that
day I'll just have to act like there's nothing else we can do but
wait, in reality for now that's all we can do, but my friend won't
have died in vain as long as Christine Jenna Blake and the others are
around.
-Fox Pim
As long as I'm in
such a happy place I can't leave this world, as long as I have Skya
and the others I'll be in a happy place
-Koncho
As long as I can use my
medical talents I have no reason to cross over.
-Manny
Maybe if they can fix
this thing with the Weathers I'll be able to rest in peace.
-Drotoro
Over the years I've
lost of lot, but even so I feel like I have gained so much more, the
feeling of acceptance I have here, my friends, things I still want to
do with my life a person I love and people who are out there that
care, I'll always have a reason to smile no matter how bad things
get, I know I will because I always have.
-Christine Weathers
I can't be there now,
but I'm still going to be watching hopefully someday we'll meet
again.
-Kennard Weathers
All I can say is... AFTER ABOUT TWO LONG YEARS AND RETYPING THIS THING SINCE LAST SUMMER AROUND THAT TIME I'M FINALLY DONE!
Only 7 days until school starts again too good thing I finished it now because I wouldn't have had the time otherwise.
I'm sad to end it in a way but it's also a big relief, I can't procrastinate on it anymore, I may or maynot have them make a cameo appearence in an FMA fic... or I may trash the idea all tougher... who knows? not even me
Anyway if you've read this fanfiction please leave me a review.
