A trumpet sound filled the air as a carriage rode through the town. The prince and princess were married just a few minutes ago everyone knew that it was one of the happiest moments when they saw the prince smiling. It took years, even for his brother to get a small one. After hearing about the fall of Firenax, people thought that they would never see it. But there he stood, smiling as he passed them.

Other major events had come about. Blake's medical issue and Black's dragon problem were finally solved. Velvet and Cream were a couple. Forest's panic attacks have ended thanks to Pink. And if you ask Sapphire, Green's finally come out of his shell thanks to the others. Y had gotten the flowers after the throw. The two groups were practically one large family. They kept their titles but worked side by side.

By the end of the day, they were able to get Forest to explain himself since he was the most mysterious one. Sadly, he only said that he would tell about the Harmonic kingdom incident.

"You're mean, Forest."

"I'm one of those guys who like to keep a box of secrets. If opened, then it's over."

"Fine... but you better start talking."

"Alright..."

The group was in Black and Blake's room. Ruby and Sapphire were in their own room, so Black was able to share with Blake.

"Ok... so some time ago... I was walking through the woods near the Harmonic kingdom." He started shaking before Pink put a hand on his shoulder. "I was just trying to track down someone who had stolen something from me, a bandit. This was before I was here. I was known as a Mlm. I don't expect you to know what that is. Regardless, I was almost near the bandit when his signal dropped and another appeared. It was actually three signals. At first I thought that three other bandits had gotten to him first until something spoke above me in a language that was from the town nearby. I won't confuse you with it, but it was the three major talking about me in their native language. I finally spoke up in the same language. That's when they dropped down from the trees. They gave me back my stolen stuff and let me go as a warning to not enter their territory. That wasn't the scary one. I encountered them again in front of kingdom gates. They were not too pleased to see me as they were dealing with a situation. I might be strong, but they almost didn't move and they knocked me unconscious. I woke up in my camp that was just outside their territory. There was a note that said 'come back when you've gained our trust.' Never went back." He was shaking violently. Pink hugged him from behind.

"Man... that explains the panic attacks. I would probably do the same." Sapphire glare at Velvet.

"Of course you would." Ruby smiled softly as Sapphire rubbed her eyes. He went over and touched Forest's shoulder, making him look up.

"At least you're here." He turned to the group. "Let's get to bed."

As everyone was leaving, Ruby picked up Sapphire bridal style and she fell asleep in his arms. He laid her down and curled up beside her. He smiled, knowing that their journey was far from over.

"Sleep tight, my dear."
