A/N: Zephyr here, as we're one chapter away from a close, I would like to thank ya'll for supporting this chapter, including Rushstar.
I've been working on this book since February and we're one chapter away from finishing it, so make that two months ever since I worked on Light of the Moon.
I apologize for this chapter being short, but I'm just so excited to make this come to an end, even though the series is still going to go on.
"So, Zephyr. What are you going to do once Light of the Moon is done?" Either I could make a future sequel of this or make a spin-off series. Reminder that I'm busy with irl stuff so it's going to take a while to publish those.
Also wow three chapters in one day, and in a short time between them. Gee I must be so motivated hahaha-
Either way, let's begin the last chapter before the epilogue.

"Griff, I would like to say that..we found Vivian. Safe."
"Good."
The Boltund took a moment to think for a few moments. Was he really going to end up killing Vivian? No. His words that were let out are, "However, I'm not actually going to kill Vivian."
"So..you're not actually going to kill her?" Asked the Boltund and Griff nodded in response. "And you're going to move out of the area with your clan."
"That's right. However, she can't come with me. With the abuse you've been giving me, I've decided to just give up and move the entire clan elsewhere."
Oakley was relieved to hear Griff's reply. "And with that said, no more coming here to fight me. From now on, we're moving the clan elsewhere."
"Guys, good news." Oakley storms into the room to find Adir busy playing board games with both Penny and Vivian. "We're keeping her.."
Vivian squealed with glee as she heard what the Boltund said to her. "I'M FINALLY GOING WITH YOU!?"
"With us, yes." Oakley responded, nuzzling Vivian on her head. "Plus, Dad told me you're allowed out here now."
"That's awesome to hear!" Adir shouted enthusiastically. "Looks like we don't need to come over to Griff's clan anymore, do we?"
"Nope. Griff told me he's moving out elsewhere with the rest of the clan. Basically he thinks it's my fault but it actually is HIS fault for not caring what she's going through." Oakley responded, nodding her head. "Besides, Griff's already got enough karma now."
Leading the rest of the team out of the explorer post, Oakley winces as she hears loud noises reverberating across the village. At first glance it was the villagers forcing Vivian out, but it sounded nothing like that. Instead, cheers can be heard.
"TEAM! BLYTZ!"
"TEAM! BLYTZ!"
"TEAM! BLYTZ!"
The Boltund's smile grew as she looked at the villagers cheering for her and the rest of her teammates. As Oakley opened her muzzle to speak, the same Yamper she'd seen before ran over to hug her, right on her front leg. "Alright, alright, little guy. You can stop now."
She ordered the small Yamper to move, and he obeyed. Rai soon comes out of the den to notice Oakley, standing motionlessly. "OAKLEY!" The Boltund yelled as he ran towards his daughter before hugging her.
Oakley hugged Rai back before turning around to watch Lila follow his lead. "I miss you, Dad." Cooed the Boltund as she broke the hug, walking over to the pleased Lycanroc. "And I miss you too."
"Oakley, you did it.." Lila sighed as she nuzzled her daughter. "You saved Stone Town."
The Boltund shook once she heard what the Midday canine said to her. "W-What do you mean I saved Stone Town? All I did was-"
"Griff's moving out, so we don't have to deal with nearby raids from him anymore.."
Oakley wasn't aware of the "Raids" part, but upon sudden realization, "Ohhh, you mean the raids ordered by him."
"Yes. We've dealt with a few raids from him before, but we managed to get this over with." Rai responded before pausing to finish his explanation. "But now that Griff's gone, we don't have to deal with the war.."
"And that Tyrogue over there. Even if it's a one-arm, he's still a bold one." Lila chuckled as she gazed her eyes upon the Tyrogue, smiling proudly. "And the Snubbull, she's known to put quite a bite!"
"You can call me Strongjaw for nothing!" Penny laughed as she hopped onto Oakley's back. "Oakley and I have been training for years now!"
"It's good to see you two get along." Rai spoke as he watched the Snubbull rub the Boltund's head. "And for Vivian. She and Oakley do seem to have such a strong bond with each other."
"It's nothing, at least. We saved her from another Sneasel trying to..you know..kidnap her.." Oakley explained as she beckoned Vivian to hop on her back, and she did. "But at least we saved her, and she's safe now."
"At first we want Vivian out, since she's an outcast, but with your heroic actions, I think she's going to be part of Stone Town now."
This made Vivian's smile grow even more. "I'm..I'M A VILLAGER NOW!?"
"Yep. Now part of Stone Town." Oakley replied as she carried her back over to the explorer post. "Plus, we're getting badge upgrades, so be prepared.."
-End of Chapter 12-
A/N: Well that wraps up for the last chapter. It's not really the final chapter of the series, it's more of an ending before the epilogue, but either way.
Thanks to the people who's sticking with the series so far. Don't worry, the series will still go on, however the main book is going to end with an epilogue.
I do not know when I'll be making an epilogue, but when I have the chance to, then I'll let ya'll know when it's published.
With that being said, see you around.
