Denahi´s and Koda´s plan to try make Kenai feel better was a completely failure, even if Kenai had agreed to listen them at the beginning, soon his brother tell them he needed time alone, so they leaved him.

"Men this is horrible" said Koda "And it´s my fault"

"Calm down Koda, but, what did you mean exactly with that?" asked Denahi.

"Well, remember when I tell you that Sitka talk me in a dream" said Koda.

"Yes"

"Well, he confess me a secret, that nobody else except me, and now you, knows"

"Oh, and, Sitka wasn´t happy for Kenai´s birth?"

"No"

"Oh, that´s… weird"

"Yes, but, you were happy for Kenai´s birth right?"

"Koda, when Kenai was born I had two years old, I don´t remember anything of that time"

"Oh, but if you were older, will you be happy for it?"

"I love Kenai, so the answers is yes, and, Sitka love us among all things, why wasn´t he happy with Kenai when he was born?"

"Well, he told me why"

"And why?"

"Because, he was happy with you Denahi, and he feared that another brother will ruined all"

"But that´s foolish, every time we were together was great, and Sitka was always happy of having two brothers, why he was afraid of that?"

"To be honest, Sitka also told me that on that time, he was very young and he was still a child, so he wasn´t so wise"

"Yes, he was like Kenai and I when he was younger, but after our parent´s death, he have to grow up, of course he was still funny but he taked his responsibilities in a very serious way, and he was the adult of course"

"Oh, but he loved Kenai when he saw him for the first time, he even cried of happiness" this last sentence wasn´t so true, but Koda wanted to make it more… comfortable for his brothers.

"So Sitka only wasn´t sure of how another brother was going to affect everything" Denahi "But he did love Kenai once he was with us"

"Yes, but after Kenai´s birth, the told me that he was a pain on the neck when he was a baby"

"He still is" Denahi.

"True, he told me that Kenai cried all the night and didn´t let you or Sitka sleep on the nights and neither to your parents"

"Like I said, I don´t remember it, but if you and Sitka said so"

"And he also told me that Kenai was naughty and rude, so he couldn´t hold it"

"Well, in a way I understand Sitka, but he was patience with Kenai, and with me, except when we fight but on other times he was patience, no matter how many time he had to explain us things"

"Yes, but that was older Sitka, and the one we are talking is the younger Sitka"

"Oh, true" Denahi.

"But one night everything change, once Sitka had to babysitting Kenai, and even if it was hard to Sitka everything changed when Kenai told him the magic word"

"Sitka´s name"

"Yes, you know about that?"

"Yes, Sitka only told us that Kenai´s first word was his name that was his favorite anecdote"

"And after that Sitka understood that Kenai was a blessing and not a curse, after that both you and Kenai are the most important thing in the world for him, and even if his death you still are because he continues helping us"

"So that´s the true story" Denahi "Sitka only didn´t knew how to manage his emotions but that´s it, it´s all like a misunderstanding"

"Yes, so now we have to explain this to Kenai"

"Of course, ever since Kenai was a child his role model has been Sitka, he admire him, I´m still thinking the reason why he wanted to become a man so quickly was because Sitka did it when he was 17 he placed his hand on the wall and Kenai wanted to join him"

"That could be a good motive, but now let´s going to tell him, before anything else happens" Koda.

"Yes, I hope that Kenai hasn´t go into a trouble"

…

Kenai had walked to the lake, and then he had lay down and looked to the water.

He was confused; he knew that Sitka loved him, but he couldn´t believe that his brother wasn´t happy about his birth, he have always believe that his brother have been happy about the new of having another little brother, because Sitka had told him stories about how happy he was, and beside, Koda have said that Sitka acted like Kenai when he met Koda, and Kenai knew that we haven´t been nice with Koda at the beginning.

"Maybe I´ll deserve it, for how I treated Koda"

Now that he realized, his relationship with Koda was really similar to his own relationship with Sitka, when Kenai was younger Sitka not only played with him, but he also tickle him, throw him into the air, and more things that he had made with Koda, and now he realized, he also acted like Koda when he was at his age, of course that Koda wasn´t so much of a trouble maker, bus they were similar, so it was funny, now he was Sitka and Koda was Kenai.

Kenai is Sitka.

Koda is Kenai.

This made Kenai laugh, and then he looked to sky.

Maybe Sitka wasn´t happy with the news of a new brother, maybe he and Sitka have his difference at the beginning, but after all, they loved each other, and Sitka loved Kenai so much that he sacrificed his own life only to Kenai and Denahi could live, if that isn´t love then anything is it.

He smiled and remembered all the good time he had with Sitka, his brother loved him, and that was all that really matter.

Soon Denahi and Koda approached him.

"Kenai" Denahi "Let us explain this"

"There´s no need Denahi, Sitka loved me and I know that, and that´s the important thing"

Denahi smiled, he was happy at seen Kenai so happy, and acting like an adult, he had to admit that his brother was making a progress in becoming a man, but keeping that childish spirit that loved to play with his brothers.

"But even do listen to us" Koda "Please; I know this will clear your doubts"

"Yes, and it´s a good story you should listen to it" Denahi.

Kenai thought about it for a second.

"Okay, let´s hear it"

…

Kenai was feeling good after hearing Koda´s story, he even remembered that one time Sitka call him the biggest pain on the neck he ever have, like Koda, at first Kenai thought Sitka was meaning it but then Sitka added What to expect from a little brother and then had put him on a headlock.

Kenai didn't remember this when he was with Koda at the Salmon Run, but the simple fact this had happened made him feel good, story was repeated itself.

Once the story have finish, Kenai said that it was a good story and proceed to play with Denahi and Koda, leaving clear that he didn´t care about the past, and what he really care was future, Denahi and Koda.

After playing with each other, they decide to go to sleep, since Koda tell him that maybe tomorrow they´ll reach the Salmon Run, and on that night Kenai had a dream, he was resting on his bed when a hand touch him on his arm, the turned around to see Sitka, at the age of twelve years old, then Kenai looked at him, it wasn´t his 16 years old body, it was his six years old body.

"How´s my favorite little trouble maker?" asked Sitka rubbing Kenai´s head.

"Sitka!" said Kenai throwing himself to his brother, he hug him and Sitka hug him back.

"Kenai, sorry for… you know, if I knew I will have a brother like you I would have been expecting you since mom give me the news"

"Don´t worry about that, you´re the best brother in the world Sitka, I love you and I always will"

"I love you too Kenai, and you´re also a great big brother for Koda"

"All thanks for you, and Sitka, I know that you turn me in a bear for punishment for what I did, but, it was on your plan that I´ll meet Koda and I´ll adopt him as my brother?"

"Let´s just said that I knew you will follow your totem if you have a motivation, besides, didn´t you tell me how big was your desire to become a big brother, and, Koda seem the perfect option, I knew you two will get along perfectly"

Kenai hug Sitka more.

"Sitka, thanks for all what you have done for me, for us, I´ll always love you"

"I´ll always love you too Kenai, my little brother"

"Thanks, but, this is a dream, right?"

"Well, you can call this a dream, but we are actually having this talk"

"Really?"

"Of course, maybe my body is death, but my spirit is still living, in the sky, in your memories, in your heart"

"And you´ll never leave us"

"Never"

After Kenai and Sitka hugged each other, they started to play with each other, just like when their kids.

…

Just like Kenai was dreaming with Sitka, Denahi was as well, he was on his eight year old body and Sitka on his body of ten years old.

"I have just visited Kenai and I thought you will happy to see me" Sitka.

Denahi hugged his brother.

"I miss you" Denahi said.

"I miss you too little brother" said Sitka hugging Denahi "But hey, you´re doing an excellent job been the oldest brother"

"Not that much"

"Of course you are, Kenai is making a progression but he still needs someone to guide him, and that is you Denahi, after all you´re the wolf of wisdom"

"I´m making an effort"

"And you´re doing it great, I´m proud of you Denahi"

"Thanks and, Sitka"

"Yes?"

"I love you"

"I love you too Denahi and I always will"

After the hug was broken, Sitka took one pillow from the bed and started to hit Denahi with it.

"Hey! Stop!" Denahi yelled as he took another pillow and started to fight back.

After that, Denahi thrower the pillow away and launched himself against Sitka, the two rolled on the ground, and then Sitka started to tickle him.

"I haven´t forget your weakness little brother"

Denahi laughed and begged mercy but Sitka wouldn´t have anything with him, after tickle him for a couple of minutes, he released his little brother and rubbed his hair.

"This is always fun" Sitka.

"Yes, always" Denahi said smiling.

…

And finally was Koda the one who dreamed with Sitka.

"I´m sorry, I swear it wasn´t my intention tell them, it was an accident! Please forgive me!" said Koda to Sitka; they were on the same place where they talk for the first time.

Sitka smiled.

"Don´t worry Koda, soon or later the truth comes out" said Sitka.

"But I made you a promise and I break it, I´m really sorry for that"

"No more worries, besides, this was an perfect excuse to come visit you another time"

"Aren´t you going to punish me?"

"If you insist"

Sitka putted Koda into a headlock and then started to tickle him.

"No!" yelled Koda laughing "I wasn´t meaning this!"

But Sitka didn´t listen to him and continued tickling him.

…

At the next day, the three brothers continue they journey, talking about the dream they have, and then that made Kenai tell Koda how a trouble maker he was when he had his age.

"I burn down tents, I released fished from the traps, once I made an caribou stampede on the village and another time, all the canoes float to the river because of me" Kenai.

"And that isn´t even the half of thing he did" added Denahi "Once he painted my hair in green!"

"Um, that wasn´t an accident" said Kenai laughing, then Koda laughed too while Denahi only rolled his eyes.

But then they reached one last obstacle, the fire land.

"Yes! We´re close" said Koda.

"Yes, almost there" added Kenai, he looked to Denahi, who have horror expression on his face "Come on Denahi, we can make this together"

"No Kenai, that isn´t the matter" said Denahi.

"Then what is it?" Kenai.

"Here, I tried to… you know" Denahi.

Then Kenai understood, the place was going to bring back bad memories for Denahi, so he placed a hand on his brother shoulder.

"Denahi, you didn´t knew I was the bear, and, remember, Koda and I have forgive you"

"Yes, if it makes you fell better, I´ll go with you all the time" said Koda jumping over Denahi´s back.

"I don´t know" Denahi.

"We´ll be right to your side all the time" Kenai "Nothing bad is going to happen us"

"Yes, if we together nothing can stop us" Koda.

Denahi take a long breath.

"Okay" Denahi "If you´re with me, I can do anything!"

"That´s my brother!" said Kenai with joy.

Denahi looked back to the fire land, this time he felt he was going to fight his demons.
