"ALRIGHT." Lucinda is seen standing in front of a dazed Aphmau due to the fact she needs to climb or dodge some obstacles later on.

"Magic is based on real emotions! For example, inner rage is what helped fire bloom with power and range, but it too can be signs of magic being in development, as it is the most common affinity of the other five." Lucinda explains as Aphmau tilts her head,

"Other... Five?" Aphmau says in confusion as Lucinda nods,

"Fire, water, earth, wind, and thunder. These all can be learned by any wizard or witch but the main ones we develop and use comfortably are what we're in affinity to. Me, Ashter, and you have an affinity to fire, as we're all aggressive by nature or by our personality. For you and Ashter's case, you developed your magical affinities when you were werewolves, either by birth or bite in your case." Lucinda explains as Ashter then goes on,

"If you learned to master your fire magics, you can learn others like me and Lucy did a while back. She learned water magics and I learned wind." Ashter explains as Aphmau was... SO confused.

"So... Aaron...?" Aphmau turns the topic to Aaron as he lays out a tiny bit of snacks from one of three of the bags.

"Hm?" Aaron wonders as Aphmau and he talks with one another as Lucinda and Ashter eat their share of a sandwich and a small bottle of water.

But soon, the four were off once again, as they pass by many exotic flowers, plants, and even a few animals such as birds or foxes.

They continued, going in between rocks and other things.

Soon the four made it to a LARGE body of water with some chairs and basic things around for a small barbeque.

"Oh wow..." Lucinda was amazed to see this view, as Ashter couldn't agree more.

"This place is very nice. Hey, Aaron! Is the campsite going to be here?" Ashter wonders as Aaron chuckles, explaining,

"Oh, no. The campsite is actually up there, across the waters." Aaron says as moments of excitement and joy flow through the two couples, as they have their fair share of moments and embarrassing events that help them bond together...

But after some exploring... They make it to the peak...

It was filled with life... Flowers, fresh grass, and an amazing view of the entire island...

"Wow..." They all shared their oos and awes as Ashter looks at the waters, seeing himself and how happy he is right now...

"We all came this far... I hope nothing can ruin this moment..." Ashter was happy and wanted to spend more time with Lucinda...

He can't wait until one day, maybe he too can propose to her...

But it's way too early...

"Hey, Ash! Come and help me set up the tents!" Aaron calls to which Ashter agreed,

"Coming!" Ashter says, setting up the tents...

However... Aphmau is seen taking off the hat, as Lucinda's eyes widened in complete awe...

"A... Aphmau..." Lucinda smiles as she can see the joy in her eyes...

"..." Aphmau looks at the island below as the sun shines on it with a radiant glow...

"S-Sorry... For not telling you before... But... This was my choice. Our choice." Aphmau says, before turning around as Lucinda tears up a bit,

"Aphmau, babe..." Lucinda says incomplete understanding, as she hugs the now turned werewolf, Aphmau... As Ashter and Aaron stand and look at her, either in love with the new Aphmau or happy and supportive of her...

"This... This is the most wonderful thing I have ever seen..." Ashter says in complete awe... But... Aaron is seen walking toward the two, as Lucinda gets out of the way to allow them to talk.

"Aphmau..." Aaron starts, as Aphmau looks her one true love in the eyes...

"Uh... I... I..." Aaron seems flustered and nervous, but Ashter stays back, and as he did, fingers intertwined with his, as looking to the left, Lucinda is seen placing her head next to Ashter's, and so did he,

"I..." Aaron says, before turning around and seeing Ashter and Lucinda, cheering him on to continue,

"..." Aaron smiles, before turning around to face her,

"Is... Something... Wrong?" Aphmau started feeling down, but Aaron calms her and himself as well,

"Aphmau... No matter what you look like... Even if you have the ears and tailor not... You'll always be beautiful to me..."

"!" Aphmau's eyes widened with twinkles...

"Aphmau... We've been together, not as lovers, but as friends for the longest I can remember... I... Just love the way I sleep next to you... And... Seeing that, made every day the best day of my life..." Aaron starts, before getting deeper into his words,

"I... Lost all that this year... And I don't ever want to lose that this year or beyond..." Aaron's words hit Aphmau like a yacht,

"... Aaron..."

"... Being with you... Has meant the world to me..." Aaron says as he goes down to one knee, as Ashter and Lucinda's eyes widened with... Admiration and familiarity,

"!" They look closely, as Aaron grabs a small box that is hidden in his pocket,

"And I... Want that to be a part of my life... Forever..." Aaron reveals and opens the box as Aphmau gasps in shock... Her eyes start to water as her cheeks grew red...

"Aphmau... Will you marry me...?" Aaron finally says as Ashter's eyes tear up as well as Lucinda's, they didn't expect this but the fact it felt so right to them... Was a beautiful moment in their eyes...

"A... Aaron..." Aphmau starts to release the water works, as she says,

"Yes! Yes yes yes yes!" Aphmau says as she jumps into Aaron's arms as the two share a romantic kiss underneath the sunset...

"Aaron~!" Ashter cries out as he tells the two,

"Congratulations!" Ashter says as Lucinda can't help but wipe the tears away, as the newly engaged couple share a scene that will last forever...
