Chapter 21 - Daniels Last Words

"I am Aaron Dàk. I am Daniels adopted brother... My brothers name does not belong on the fallen soldiers list... It belongs on the fallen heros list. I dont care how people try to spin it... He was a hero... If it weren't for him I would probably be dead. I havent spoke about this yet... He went the extra mile to make sure that our troops were safe... There were 3 of us on that mountain that day... Me, Daniel, and someone who I will leave nameless for their personal safety... We had set traps in 3 places for the enimie. They went to ours in the South Caverns. Me and Daniel led them into the caves without them knowing we knew they were behind us... After we got to the entranse we pretended shocked to see them to make it look as if we didn't stage this. And we ran. After a few minutes Daniel was shot in the arm. And because of this we were late to the wall that would close during a time. Shutting anyone in the cave in there permanently. But the wall didn't work. Daniel shoved me to the ground as he pulled the lever... He trapped himself in their. After the fense closed we had 2 minutes to get out before the final wall closed. But he couldn't get out of the enimie would escape. I could hear them coming for him. Shooting at us... When the wall came down a small part of me died inside... He handed me his dog tags... And he also handed me this..." Aaron pulled the letter from his shirt pocket and opened it up... Everyone was shocked... "Nobody has ever read this letter except for me and Daniel... This was the last thing he gave me... And I think its only best that we all read his last words..." Aaron opened it up and read. "My name is Daniel Dàk. If you find this letter something bad must have happened to me... It probably wasn't cool. If anything I probably left this earth in the dumbest way possible. I can see it now. The headlines reading death by bee sting to the eye... But to be serious. If anything ever happens to me I hope that the ones I love most recieve this message... To my dearest Maya. You were the love of my life. And you gave me the best gift in the world... Our son... And I Hope our newest child will be just as strong as their mother... Whatever happens I want you all to know it probably wasn't your fault. Unless Aaron pulled a scar from the lion king on me... I know he wouldn't... But to my son Atticus, I hope you will be a good big brother to your newest sibling. And help mommy overcome anything I can no longer be there for... I love you son. And to my second child. I want you to know even though we never met I loved you and hope you know just how strong your mother really is. I love the three of you so much and I hope you may have a great life without me... I know your going to do amazing things... To my sister by blood. I couldn't have asked for a better sister. Though you knew how to get on my nerves. You were a strong soldier throughout the loss of mom and dad. But we gained new ones. I will make sure to say Hi to mom and dad for us. And for Aaron and you Katlyn, I will say hi to Helen and Marcus for you guys. I couldn't have asked for a better adoptive family. Though they always made it feel as if it were more than that. Katlyn I hope you have a great life with Jin, and may you have beatiful children with him, but please Jin don't be to handsy with my little Blue... Goodbye to my sister, Blue... Love Big Red... And last but not least. My little brother, Aaron. Though we didn't share the same blood you were my brother. I love you... And I hope you all can forgive me. Aaron I want you to know that in my eyes you were the strongest soldier I have ever seen. I am glad to have served with you, and I am glad to be your brother. I hope you have a long life with Peyton. And may she regain her site before your child is born, don't steer away, there is always hope. Even if she doesn't, I know she can get through it... You are one of the strongest woman I ever met. Take care of my brother Peyton, or as we said Toni... Take care of him Toni, Take care of my brother Roni. Goodbye to all of you... I wish you a great life. Prosparity. And that you will always remember me. For you all have a special place in my heart. I love you all, though my time stops here, your hour glasses are still flowing. Do something great with the grains of sand you have left. That analogy was for you Jin... Goodbye... Goodluck... And always...

Itsumo ai o komete watashi o oboete iru...

Always remeber me with love..."

Everyone stood and clapped as Aaron bawled his eyes out. Katlyn came up to him and they both cried together. They walked to their seats... When a strange man walked up to the podium... It took a while for the tears to stop and the crowd to quiet down. But when they did the man didn't waste time. "I am Mr. Kân. Daniel came to me before he died. In a few hours there will be a will reading. Will the following people please be there at 6 pm in the room number 1606 in city hall... Katlyn Dàk, Jin Cheng, Maya Dàk, Atticus Dàk, Peyton Dàk, Aaron Dàk, and a dog by the name of Atka, sir Loniá, and Kenai... Thank you" The wierd man left as everyone bagan to talk around...
