As the meadow was bathed in a glowing light, Balloon and I looked at each other. We were standing on the top of the grassy meadow, admiring the new blue sky.

"We did it, Taco. We survived the apocalypse. We won the war."
I nodded slowly. It was a lot to take in at once, but I felt lighter than ever. Everything within me felt lighter than before.

"I'm glad. Thanks to OJ..and ourselves." Balloon said, then smiled.
"I..I still don't know how I feel about you, but I'll say this: You gave me hope. I couldn't have done this without you. So thank you, Taco."
"L-Likewise, Balloon." I replied, slightly embarrassed. His words were something else, but they resonated with me all the same.

"We might have to create a new world now, huh?" I joked.
Balloon raised an eyebrow. "We can do it. Together."
"Very well, Balloon."

The two of us stared at the cloudy blue sky, and a feeling of newfound hope washed over us as we faced forward into the future.
