Chapter Ninety: The Lights
"Look, I am sorry!" Tuke said as they climbed up the snow covered hill.
"If I was driving, this never would've happened!" Rutt said missing one of his antlers.
"Just stop it."
"You never let me drive, you never let me do nothing."
"Oh, trample off, eh? I said I was sorry. Let it go."
"I can't believe you totaled a mammoth, eh."
"Oh, come on. That mountain came out of nowhere."
"I'm afraid I cannot accept your apology."
"It was in my blind spot!"
"Hey, look" Rutt said spotting Koda sitting alone.
"Wh-what?" Tuke said.
"It's that little cub. Gee, eh, something's bugging him" Rutt said.
"Yeah, what's wrong, smallish bear?" Tuke asked.
"Nothing. I'm fine" Koda sniffed.
"Oh, good. Now, where were we? Oh, yeah. You're a big selfish, reckless hoofer and you're never gonna change!" Rutt said to Tuke.
"What?!"
"I'm fed up with it, eh. From now on, he's my new brother.
"You can't do that!"
"Sorry. You've been replaced with my dear brother...Gee, I forget your name. What's your name again, little bear?"
"I don't want any more brothers" Koda said pushing Rutt away.
"See, he's had enough of you, too, eh?" Rutt said.
"Aw, come on I promise I'll change" Tuke said.
"Trample off you'll never change being a brother
means nothing to you."
"Of course it does, eh."
"Oh, yeah? Like what?"
"What about the time your hooves froze in the pond? Who sat with you all winter, eh?"
"You did."
"And who showed you where the good grazing is? I mean the really tender stuff, all covered in dew? Now, why do you think I did that, eh? Because I...because I love... dew."
"Excuse me? I don't believe I heard what you said" Rutt said as Tuke sighed.
"I said I love... dew."
"I love dew, too, eh."
"Hey, I can change."
"Go away, eh."
"Come on. I can change."
"Go away, eh. Don't touch me."
"I can change!" Tuke said tickling Rutt side with his antler.
"Hey! Not... not there. That's the spot!" Rutt laughed as the brothers laughed.
"Like, we'll see you later, smallish bear!" Tuke said walking away,
"Yeah. Good day, eh hey, you know
what this calls for? A pile of delicious barley and amberweed on a cool bed of malted hops, eh?" Rutt said.
"I like it" Tuke said as Koda looked to the mountain where Kenai, Jason and Max foot prints in the snow went.
At the top of the mountain a blizzard was storming as they climbed to the top.
"Sitka! Sitka, are you there?" Kenai called.
"Sitka!" Jason called.
"Please. Please, Sitka I don't know what else to do.
Sitka?" Kenai said as they saw a figure coming from the top looking like the eagle.
The figure then jumped down away from them to be Denahi with a hood and sphere as he glared at them.
"Denahi!" Kenai said.
"AAH!" Denahi yelled charging at them
"Sitka, hurry! Change us back!" Kenai yelled as Jason summoned his keyblade and blocked Denahi sphere.
"What the?!" Denahi said as Jason shoved him back.
"Sitka! Please hurry!" Jason yelled as they got corner to an edge.
"Where are you, Sitka?" Kenai said.
"Kenai!" Jason yelled.
"Aah!" Denahi yelled jumping on Kenai and using the sphere to choke him.
"Get off him!" Jason yelled trying to pull him off by tugging on Denahi hood as it tore and Jason fell over as the ledge they stood on crack and the four fell down when it broke as they crashed onto a ledge below.
"Denahi Denahi, please" Kenai said as his brother stood above him with a knife.
"NO!" Max yelled as Koda slammed into Denahi chest and the two fell over in the snow as Koda got up panting.
"Koda?" Kenai said as Denahi stood up and spotted his sphere nearby as Koda saw it and ran towards it with Denahi running after him.
"No!" Kenai yelled as Koda grabbed the sphere with his mouth and began to carry it away.
"Koda!" Jason yelled as he Kenai and Max ran after Denahi.
"Leave him alone!" Kenai yelled.
"Don't touch him!" Max yelled as Koda tripped and dropped the sphere as Denahi picked up the sphere and Sitka began to fly in.
"Koda!" Kenai yelled as the lights appeared above the mountains and a scream echoed.
Denahi then opened his eyes to the lights above to see Sitka flying down with the transforming Kenai as the snow melted all around the mountain into a meadow of flowers as Kenai was turned back human as Jason and Max also glowed turning back to their original forms.
"Kenai? Jason? Max?" Denahi said.
"Whoa!" Jason said covering himself seeing he was now lacking clothes like Max and Kenai as they heard the eagle chirp as their clothes dropped in front of them and Sitka landed turning into his human form as Sitka took Denahi sphere and removed Kenai totem.
"Sitka?" Denahi said as Sitka closed his dropped jaw and took his hood to wrap around Kenai as Denahi dropped his sphere.
"Thank you Sitka!" Jason said putting on the last of his clothing.
They than head Koda yelps as they looked over to Koda hiding by a few rocks yelping.
"Koda" Kenai said approaching with Jason and Max as Koda backed away, "Koda, don't be afraid, it's us."
"It's okay Koda no one going to hurt you" Jason said as Koda looked to their eyes to see them turn into their animal forms before running into Kenai arms who hugged him and Koda made more yelping sounds.
"What should we do?" Jason asked as Sitka held out Kenai totem who took it and looked at the bear totem then at Koda before turning to Sitka.
"He needs me" Kenai said.
"You know, he did look better as a bear" Denahi said as Jason, Kenai and Max laughed.
"But... Denahi" Kenai said.
"It's all right, Kenai" Denahi said as Kenai set Koda down who saw a light then gasped as Jason looked over to where Koda was going and smiled before looking to the brothers.
"No matter what you choose you'll always be my little brother" Denahi said putting Kenai totem around his neck as he held out his hand for their shake as Kenai took it and laughed.
"Jason look!" Max said as Jason looked to the lights to see the keyhole.
"Well I didn't see any Unversed here but better safe than sorry" Jason said summing his keyblade and held it out to the keyhole and sent out the beam into the keyhole as it glowed and filled the sky with the bright light as Kenai began to glow before turning back into a bear hugging Denahi.
"Oh did I say little?" Denahi said as he laughed as the three brothers hugged and they looked over to Koda who was cuddling with his mother as Sitka began to walk away then ran to the light with Koda mother as he turned into an eagle and they disappeared into the lights as Kenai approached Koda.
"Kenai!" Koda said jumping onto Kenai too hug him as Denahi jumped on his back and Jason hugged Koda.
"What now guys?" Jason asked.
Later drums played back in the village as Tanana walked past the villagers with a torch before handing it to Denahi before he tossed it into their fire pit and made a large fire as the villager moved to make an opening as Kenai walked past them in his bear form with Jason and Max following before the three dipped their hands in red paint and approached the wall as Kenai place his bear paw print on the wall and Jason and Max set their next to Kenai as the villager cheered and Koda ran to.
"I guess this is our time to go" Jason said.
"Already?" Koda said.
"...we understood that" Max said.
"You can understand us?" Kenai said as Jason took a glance to Sitka sitting in a nearby tree.
"Yeah we got to go but Koda, Kenai no matter how far Max and I go and no matter how long we'll be gone just know we'll always be brothers" Jason said as Koda ran into Jason arms as Jason and Max hugged them.
"I love you guys" Koda said.
"We love you too Koda" Max said.
"You keep an eye on Keani for us Koda and make sure his fat head doesn't get in anymore traps" Jason said.
"Hey!" Kenai said as they laughed.
"Will you guys ever come back?" Koda asked.
"You can count on it!" Max said.
"Good luck on your journey guys" Kenai said.
"We will" Jason said as he and Max walked away and returned to the lanes between.
On the Gummi ship Jason looked at his Atlatian Crsytal in one hand and his Bear totem in the other as they glowed and formed into one with the bear totem with having the cystal in it and have glowing part on the bear eyes, belly and paws.
"Whoa!" Jason said.
"Jason!" Max said tuning in with his fused Turtle totem and crystal.
"Yeah mine too!" Jason said holding up his.
"How?" Max said.
"Magic" Jason said smiling as he put his totem back around his neck.
"Were approaching the new world" Max said.
"Let's go then" Jason smiled.
