*Your P.O.V*

Rushing towards a shoreline covered in dense palms, gentle waves lapping at the sand.

I look over to see Eep, fixing her hair. Were taking our very first family photo.

This is me. My name's Y/n and this, is my family. The Croods. If you weren't clued in by the sun tans and pets, we're not exactly cavemen anymore.

Grug has a wonderful picture making contraption they are about to experience. The slab of rock smacks us all in the face leaving the first family photo.

"Let's do that again. I think I blinked." Thunk says as he falls back.

Our world is still plenty harsh and hostile. But now we know the Croods will make it.

I see Belt riding on the back of the Crocopup, delivering a drink to Gran, pull out to reveal she is in a sled, hitched to a team of Liyotes. The liyotes are tending to her. Gran sips her drink.

Because we changed the rules. The ones that kept us in the dark.

I look over to my mom to see her sharpening a spear. The Macawnivore comes in to my view with Grug riding on top. Ugga tosses him the spear. Eep, flips from out of the trees. She blows her horn to call Guy and the BearOwl for a ride.

And because of my dad, who taught us that anyone can change...

The Macawnivore leaps through the trees onto a broad, beautiful beach with Grug, Ugga, and Eep atop.

"Release the baby!" Grug calls out.

Well, sort of.

Thunk breaks through the trees riding a landwhale. Sandy and Belt are riding the Crocopup. Me and Guy are riding the BearOwl.

So from now on we'll stay out here.

We turn and ride toward a sunrise, and as we do Guy reaches forward and turns my face back to look at him, locking our lips together for a few seconds in a sweet kiss, then releasing his hold on on my chin he lets me turn back around with a very flustered smile on my face.

Where we can follow the light.

The End
