Epilogue - Five Years later

Roy gently placed his sleeping seven month old daughter in her crib for her afternoon nap. He looked out the window and smiled when he saw his lovely wife of five years attempting to teach their twin three year sons meditation in the backyard. The boys were not cooperating as they were running around screeching and giggling. Black tentacles rose from their mother, lifted them gently like little bear cubs and placed one on each side of her. The boys looked up at their mother, giggled a bit but then followed her in repeating the mantra. This lasted for only a couple of minutes before Raven told them to wash their hands before getting a snack to eat. Screaming and giggling the whole time, they ran into the house to wash their hands.

Roy went downstairs, wrapped his arms around Raven from behind and kissed her neck as she was placing the boys' snacks on the patio table. "How did the meditation session go today love," inquired her husband.

"Daniel still fidgets quite a bit while meditating. Kurt is doing well. He can concentrate for the full two minutes. Is the baby asleep yet?" asked Raven of their daughter while their sons started to devour their food.

"She was already asleep when I carried her to her room," replied Roy. "Oh, and this is for you. Happy fifth anniversary, Rae," said Roy as he removed a platinum charm bracelet from a black velvet box and placed it on Raven's wrist. "It's beautiful!" exclaimed Raven as she fingered the charms in the shapes of ravens, bows and arrows and hearts. "Thank you and happy anniversary to you too," said Raven as she kissed her husband before handing him a small box on the table. Roy opened the box and found a paper with a set of numbers. He looked at his wife with a puzzled look. Raven called out to one of their staff to watch their sons before she grabbed Roy's hand and led him to the basement of their mansion.

Next to the wine cellar was a locked room which Roy thought was storage space. However, when he punched in the set of numbers from the paper into the door panel, the door opened and he found a spacious, modern workshop where his bows were hanging on the wall, arrows were categorized and stored neatly and numerous machinery and equipment to make bows, arrows and other devices were lying about.

"Do you like it?" asked Raven, not sure of his reaction.

"Like? I freaking love it!" exclaimed Roy, shaking his head in amazement. "Thank you. After five years, Rae, you still amaze me." He pulled her into a kiss and whispered, "I hope this room is sound proof...."
