I told Summer about mine and Connor's chat. She congratulated me.
"You did the right thing."
"Yeah. I'm sorry about Lois and me. How can I repay you?"
"I know." She winked...

Three Hours Later...

The sun was almost breaking the moon's cold rays for its very own.
Summer and I got dressed. We went and cooked breakfast for everyone. When it was done, I walked along the corridor with the cell doors and I knocked on everyone's hard with Lucille.
''BREAKFAST!" I yelled "WE'VE GOT A BIG DAY TODAY. GROUP MEET UPS!"
By the time everyone was ready I had tired my voice.
"So, were meeting up with a new group today. A very familiar face will appear. For us older generations that is. Move out with weapons!" I ordered.
We made it to the base that Kayleigh had tipped us off at and were greeted by an un-warm welcome. A group of Betio Bastards had followed us. We took them down pretty easily.
"I wish to see Isobel."
"This way, sir" he added quickly eyeing up Lucille.
I walked through the door to see an aged Isobel at the window singing to a song...
"So excuse me forgetting
But these things, I do
You see, I've forgotten
If they're green or they're blue
Anyway, the thing is, what I really mean
Yours are the sweetest eyes I've ever seen"
"And you can tell everybody this is your song
It may be quite simple but
Now that it's done
I hope you don't mind
I hope you don't mind
That I put down in words" I sang.
"How wonderful life is while you're in the world" We sang in harmony. She turned around to reveal no scars or cuts. She ran at me and hugged me.
She ran to Connor and yelled: "Kieran!"
''That isn't Kieran." I said to her. She looked in disbelief.
"Who-"
"It's his son."
I explained everything to Isobel which led her to joining The Escapees.
But before that she slapped me round the face.
"How could you!"
