Drake looked to Lux and Zed. "Well...? It's time."
Lux, 13 by now, looked to Drake. "Drake... should we tell Kamryn and DJ?"
Zed glanced at her. "Lux, they have enough on their minds right now. Sera and Kamryn have a kid, and DJ is in Springdale."
Lux nodded. "I know... just he would like it... Zycron..."
Drake rested a hand on her shoulder. "Sorry, Lux, we can be the only ones... otherwise this would get too dramatic. Besides... I'm sure they are planning to do it themselves." Lux nodded.
Just last year, on Father's Day, their dad, and Sera's father, also, were killed right in front of them. Sera had found out and nearly killed Drake before realizing he wasn't to blame for it, Kamryn almost succeeding in holding back her rage. Drake assumed the role of father to keep Lux and Zed stable.
Zed looked at his older brother. "Drake, we should probably go."
Drake nodded. "Of course... come on guys." He led them out and to a clearing in the woods, where a single grave lay. On it, barely legible due to exposure, read the name "Zycron Shade". Drake knelt near it and, emotionally, said some words; "Happy birthday... Big Brother..."
