I am so sorry but I had a huge motivation bug and couldn't continue this for a while, hopefully you all can forgive the wait.
Digger's POV
We re-opened again after a few days of planning and decorating. I was very happy to see the smiling faces of all the children as they came in. Catherine doesn't want to come out, I guess she's just a little shy, probably because she might not have seen many children before.
We start with our usual routine, but to my surprise, a group of kids walked up towards me. It was the same five children I had saved not too long ago. The youngest came up and handed me a piece of paper with a grey and light grey blob (Which I'm guessing was me) and five different colored splotches (obviously the kids) and on the top I spotted the words, "Our Hero". I nearly shut down right there. For them to think of me as a hero. Me? I gave one of my biggest smiles and patted the little ones on the head. They all ran off to go play arcade games and such while I went and stamped the picture on the wall inside of Pirate's Cove. As I came back I saw Mackenzie talking with four parents, which if I remember correctly were the parents of the five children.
Mackenzie's POV
"Are you Mackenzie Kasch?" I heard someone behind me ask.
"Yes, how may I be of service?"
"Aren't you the person who built Digger?"
"Yes, I am"
"Well, he had saved our children's lives and we couldn't thank him enough."
"Digger was just glad he was able to make it in time."
"He definitely will be a good role model to many children."
I nodded. "Of course."
"Good day, "
"Good day to you, too." I watched them leave to keep an eye on their children. I turned towards the cove, watching as the kids huddled around Digger, Foxy and Scarlet. The kids were all wrapped up in a treasure hunt with the three. The kids had pirate bandannas on as they ran around searching for a tiny treasure chest one of the three hid.
"Found it!" I heard a child's voice. I looked around the room until I spotted a little girl hold up a small, wooden treasure chest. Digger then walked up to her. "Looks like we've got a winner!" He said joyously. He picked her up and placed her on his shoulders. "Captain Foxy has a reward for finding his buried treasure." He then carried her to the Pirate's Cove to get her prize from Foxy. "Argh, here be the lass that found me buried treasure!" Foxy said. "Here ye go lass," he said, placing a souvenir Pirate's Cap on her head.
The little girl had a look of pure happiness as she was held by Digger and was given attention by Foxy. I smiled as that reminded myself of me not so long ago. But as they say, the past is in the past, and you need to look forward instead of turning back. That's exactly what I'm gonna do.
