Rinkus let a tear fall down his eye, tightening his arms around the boy, giving him a goodnight kiss on the forehead. "I love you too, son." he muttered, snuggling himself into the bed before drifting off into a sleep.

The sun rose as Devon and Sierra were the first two to wake up, as was planned. They snuck over towards the sleeping Pterano, kneeling by his sides. Devon nudged the older flyer's shoulder gently. "Dad...time to wake up...Dad..." No replies of course came from Pterano, for he was still too deep in his sleep. "Dad..."
Sierra of course was losing his patience, he leaned over the red flyer's ear and shouted, "WAKE UP!!!!!"
Pterano snorted loudly before snapping his eyes open. Unfortunately for Devon trying to not wake Petrie and his friends, the little hatchlings woke up by surprise.
