What happened after...

Janner heard a voice.

'JANNER MY PLANS FOR YOU ARE NOT FINISHED. GET UP AND LIVE ONCE MORE!'

Janner felt strange. He heard familiar voices, that sounded close, yet somehow far away. The voices came closer and closer, until they were right there, close to him. He heard a voice say, "Is it working?" Janner's mind went to a little wolf boy. He heard another voice say, "Maker please let this work." His mind then went to a strong man, with wings. He heard another voice. "Please come back Janner." Janner felt his heart flutter. His mind went to a young girl, his age. Sara Cobbler. That name kept him from going down paths it shouldn't. She was the one who helped Janner, in many different ways.

Janner had remembered feeling contentment, then this. He wondered what was going on, before he remembered everything. He opened his eyes, and felt everyone hugging him. Once everyone had backed away, Kalmer was still sobbing violently in his shoulder, muttering, "I thought I killed you!"

Janner looked around at everyone. He didn't see Sara though. He thought that he might have imagined her voice. Janner looked back at Kalmer, who was getting himself together.

"So, uh, I guess I'm still alive huh?" Janner laughed.

Kalmer rolled his eyes. "Yes, how could you not be alive."

Janner chuckled.

Artham spoke up. "And Sara's here too, Janner."

Janner looked around, when she stepped into view. They smiled at each other, and before they knew it, they were hugging each other, both with teary eyes.

"So, who's idea was it to come here?" Janner asked once everyone had sat down.

"Oh, well that would be me and Kalmer." Artham replied.

"Well, it's good that we know that the water works like this." Leeli said cheerfully.

"So, uh, what are we gonna do now?" Janner asked.

Kalmer laughed. "Well, for starters, let's eat some food."

Janner sobered. "No, like are we going to live in Anniera? And work on rebuilding society there?"

Nia smiled at her son. "Well, if we didn't live in Anniera, who would lead the former fangs and cloven?"

Janner considered that thought. "I forgot about that."

Leeli snickered. "How'd you forget that? That's pretty much how, well how you died."

Janner sat there, with Sara and Kalmer on either side. He wondered what would happen, now that the fangs were gone. Anniera was being rebuilt. And Sara was here. Janner had never felt more happier in his life.

"Well, for starters, let's eat." Janner laughed. The family ate and talked, telling embarrassing stories about Janner, to his dismay. Janner was enjoying it all, until Kalmer brought up the story of their conversation at the inn, just after he'd gotten out of the Ban Rona dungeon.

Kal snickered. "Remember it, Janner?"

Janner glared at him. "Kal, don't you dare."

Nia and Leeli laughed. "Do it Kal." Leeli urged.

Nia looked at Janner, then at Sara, then at Kal. "If the king decides to tell it, the queen can't stop it."

Janner braced himself for a loooong conversation with Kal and Sara later.

"Ok ok, so I had just gotten out of the dungeon, and Janner was telling us about where uncle Artham had gone."

Artham grinned, already knowing where the story was going.

"And so Janner sat there and said, uncle Artham went to Dugtown. Sara Cobbler is still there- and I cut in-Sara Cobbler with the diamond eyes? And Janner blushed, and said, what? And then Grandpa spoke up, saying, you spoke in your sleep lad. Then Janner punched me in my arm, then Ma said, boys behave yourselves at the table. Kalmer, leave Janner alone, he can't help it if he's in love." Kal burst out laughing. Sara and Janner both blushed, and couldn't make eye contact.

"Kal, why are you trying to kill me?" Janner muttered to where only Kalmer could hear him.

Kal snickered. "Well, it's quite obvious she's got feelings for you back." He said, quietly so that only Janner could hear.

Janner looked surprised. "What?"

Kal laughed, making everyone look at him. "Yeah, Ma told me that uncle Artham told her that Sara told him that she thinks she's in love with you."

Janner looked up, towards Artham and Sara, and saw Sara glance at him, before blushing again.

Janner thought. If Sara did have feelings for him, that would be wonderful, since he had feelings for her.

He glanced at her again, and noticed her still blushing.

Kal snickered. "Want me to go tell her that us three need to talk?"

Janner turned to him. "Why you too?"

"Well, as a moderator."

Janner thought. "Well, a moderator would be good, and it would help with the tension. Yes."

Kal got up and went to speak to Sara. He spoke quietly, before going back to Janner.

"Well, what'd she say?" Janner asked.

"She said that all she wants to know is if you do have feelings towards her." Kal replied.

"What did you tell her?"

"Well, I told her I'd ask you. Do you?

Janner sighed. "Yes."

Kal snickered. "Ok then, I'll be right back."

Kal went to Sara, and they spoke in hushed whispers. Janner saw Kalmer talk, then Sara blushed and grinned. Obviously she was happy with his answer. Kal came back with Sara next to him. Janner looked down, blushing. The next thing he knew, Sara kissed his cheek. Then she got up, and went back to where she was sitting. Janner was shocked. He hadn't expected that. He looked up to see Sara grinning at him. He smiled back. And from that moment on, they went through life together for as long as the Maker allowed.

The End.

Or more like, a new beginning...
