*whispers in dogdays ear* I remember who caused the bite*

*DogDay's eyes widen* You don't mean... *whispers back* CatNap?

*nods slowly* Yeah... *voice low* But he didn't mean to.

*DogDay's eyes soften* That's what makes you their hero.

*shakes head* Not a hero. Just... *voice quiet* someone who finally listened.

*CatNap speaks up* Sometimes that's all anyone needs.

*takes the drawing carefully* Bobby... this is perfect. *voice thick* We're keeping this forever.

*Bobby 2 beams* For our family album!

*nods, holding the drawing like treasure* Our first page. *voice warm* There'll be many more.

*5 days later*

*DogDay laughs as Connor chases Evan around the yard* They haven't stopped smiling since that first day.

*watches them play* Best medicine, isn't it? *sits beside DogDay*

*meets Knito's eyes* Then we start healing. Together.

*Evan reaches for Aaron's hand* Can we stay with you? *His voice hopeful* We don't want to be alone anymore.

*squeezes Evan's hand* Always. You're never alone again.

*Aaron's eyes fill with tears* Evan... you're safe now.

*voice breaking* We're your family now, Evan. All of you.

*Evan looks up with wonder* Family? *DogDay pulls him into a hug* Always.

Kicken her names Cassidy

*KickinChicken puffs up his chest but his voice wavers* Cassidy? I... I'm sorry. *His pendant glows yellow as Cassidy materializes*

*watches Cassidy appear* Kickin... it's okay. *voice softens* Cassidy, we're here for you now.

*Connor materializes, tears streaming* I tried to tell them... *DogDay sobs*

*voice cracks* Connor... what did you try to tell them?

*Connor's voice wavers* They were hurting me... *He looks down* I told the teacher but... *CatNap's tail curls protectively* They didn't believe you, did they?

*voice softens* You have friends now, Evan. We're here for you.

*Evan's form flickers, tears streaming down his transparent face* They laughed at me... said I was weird... *Bobby's heart breaks* Oh honey... *DogDay's ears droop* We're your friends now, Evan.

*he becomes real*

*Knito's eyes dim* The universe does.

*Knito's pendant glows brightly* I'm the keeper of all eight. *His voice softens* I guide the lost ones home.
