As Sehun returned, his hand firmly holding Kris's, a sense of relief washed over the room. "Chen!! You're alive!" Kris exclaimed with a mixture of joy and surprise, immediately letting go of Sehun's hand. "I am," Chen confirmed proudly, his eyes gleaming with resilience. Kris heaved a sigh of relief and lifted Chen's chin gently, studying his face intently. "Is that all they've done to you?" Kris inquired, a tinge of anger creeping into his voice as he let go of Chen's chin. "Apparently, yes," Chen replied, his tone betraying the weight of the recent events. Kris clenched his fists in frustration, his jaw tensing. "Those stupid red wolves. If it were up to me, I would have killed all of them a long time ago," Kris muttered, his eyes reflecting a deep sense of betrayal. "You're still bitter about it, huh?" Thunder said nudging Kris lightly. "Yes, it's serious. If it weren't for us protecting our world, another would have fallen, and the Tree of Life would have withered away ages ago, as the book foretold," Kris remarked with a mix of sorrow and determination. "And DarkFeather, he had to meddle and sow seeds of discord. His betrayal cut deep, failing us and Mother on Earth," Thunder added solemnly, his gaze shifting between Kris, Sehun, and Chen. Kris nodded in agreement, his eyes clouded with memories of past wounds. "He turned his hatred towards me, neglecting to teach me to fly, never acknowledging my potential, always casting me aside as if I were the weakest of the pack," Kris confessed, his voice heavy with unspoken emotions. Taking a seat on Chen's bed, Kris seemed lost in his thoughts, his eyes distant. "Kris, you've been under my care since you were a little pup. It brings me joy to see you grow into a strong guardian. Feel free to call me Dad, for I am proud to be the first father of two on the EXO planet," Thunder said, his voice filled with paternal pride. A smile tugged at Kris's lips as he looked at Thunder, a newfound sense of belonging blooming within him. "Thank you, Dad," Kris whispered, his heart feeling lighter with acceptance and familial bond. Chen beamed at the exchange between the two, his eyes sparkling with camaraderie. "You possess the same courage as me, Kris. We stand together, not as brothers by blood but by the bond of loyalty and shared experiences. We are family in spirit," Chen declared, sealing their bond of brotherhood with a heartfelt embrace. Thunder watched the trio with a warm smile, knowing that their unity and resilience would be the key to safeguarding their world and upholding the legacy of their ancestors. In the face of adversity, their bond shone brightly, a beacon of hope in the darkness that threatened their realm.
