Lancelot was back it had worked and now Ebony her children and beloved brother were all
chatting. She had filled him in about what had happened in the last years and laughed when
his jaw dropped, when she told him she had been crowned and now was co leader of the
woads. Then the topic turned to the subject of their younger years and Lancelot commented
on how much Shaylee was exactly how her mother used to be. There conversation was
interrupted by two sets of groans from the beds beside Lancelot . Ebony's eyes widened as
her father and love woke up, they both had the blurry gaze Lancelot had originally had.
Ebony was frozen staring at Tristan as he looked around the room and then his eyes finally
landed on Ebony. They sat there starring at each other for a few moments until Tristan finally
broke the silence.
" Rose ?" he whispered
" Yes" She whispered back and with out warning she launched herself from Lancelot's bed
onto Tristan where for the first time in 10 years she broke down. Shaylee silently watched her
mother as she snuggled against her uncle who was petting her hair, while Tristan watched
with his arms crossed watched as this man made his mother cry. He hated him with a furry
that he didn't know he had. Dagonet who had also been awaken took everything in silently
including the silent glaring boy who could only be the scouts and kittens son. Ebony who had
held everything in for 10 years finally let it all go, and Tristan gently rubbed her back. He was
back Tristan was back she had waited for 10 years and what does she do the first time she
see's him, she breaks down this made Ebony laugh at how ridiculous she was being.
" Mad women you cry then laugh" Lancelot said sarcastically
" Ay I'm mad its just he's been gone 10 years and the first thing I do when I see him is blubber
like a baby" Ebony said still chuckling
" 10 years what has happened all I rember is the battle field and then I was flying" Tristan
said
" Well Tristan I would like you to meet your daughter and son" Ebony said beckoning for the
children to come to her
" Ch Cha children" Tristan stuttered
" Hello Papa my name is Shaylee" The little girl said with a curtsy
The scout merely stared at her and then his eyes to the young boy standing beside Lancelot's
bed who didn't move simply glare at him. The two locked eyes making Rylie a little
uncomfortable but he never backed down. Yup Tristan thought the lad was exactly like he
was when he was at his age.
" And your name lad" Tristan said
" Rylie" he said gruffly
" Have you watched and protected your mother and sister these last few years?" Tristan
asked
"Yes" Rylie answered
Before Tristan could answer to that Arthur and everybody else walked in. The Knights all
stood still for a moment just watching each other to make sure it wasn't a dream. It was a
joyous celebration the fallen knights had come back to the people that loved them. For the
rest of the morning they chatted until three growling stomachs told them it was time to eat.
Then the knights gently got off the hospital bed with the objections from everybody else and
headed toward the tavern. Once Lance, Tris, and Dag reassure that they are fine and every
thing is healed every one finally agrees. When they get there all the chatter and such stop and
just stare at the 3 faces that have been gone for 10 years. Lets just say this would be a night
of celebration.
