On a certain night, three years later we can hear the crackle of fire.

Around this fire is a familiar group.

"So, how's life been treating all of you?" Keegan asks the group around him.

"You first." Grease replies, taking a sip of her beer.

"Fair enough." Keegan says with a slight chuckle.

"Me and Katy are finally getting married." Keegan says.

"Congratulations." Aiden replies, clapping his hands.

Then he suddenly becomes serious.

"Are we invited?" He asks.

Keegan starts laughing.

"Of course you are. When you get back home you should check your mail."

"What about you." Aiden asks Grease.

"I've got a boyfriend now." She replies.

"So Jerry finally asked you out did he?" Keegan asks with a sly chuckle.

Grease shoots him an annoyed look.

Jerry is the medic who pulled Grease from the battlefield and stitched her up.

"Although I have to say, I never thought you'd go for thin nerdy guys." Gwen comments.

"Me neither. I always thought I'd be into buff grease monkeys or bikers. But we rarely know who we're meant for." Grease replies.

"True. My parents almost had heart attacks when I told them I was getting married to a human." Gwen says, chuckling.

"That reminds me. We have news." Aiden suddenly says.

Keegan and Grease look at him, curiously.

"You wanna tell them?" Aiden asks Artemis, who nods.

Gwen then walks over to Artemis and puts her arms around the young woman.

"We're pregnant." Artemis says with a shy smile.

At first Keegan and Grease look at them with shocked expressions.

Then they jump up and start congratulating Aiden and his wives.

The first child between a human and a Fur was on his way.

And with him, a new age cometh.
