“Yeah,” Savant said as he opened his computer and waited for a signal. “Hooray for her.”
The craft banked hard right, then quickly to the left and the team members grabbed for anything to keep themselves upright.
Here we go
Here we go
The Bearberry Bears are going home
The nose pitched up and sent Glitch sliding toward the back of the plane. A second later everyone was sliding toward the front. Jake crashed into the cockpit door and pulled it open.
I can’t believe the fun we had
Brexbin sat at the controls singing. His feet dangled from the seat and he kicked his legs gleefully back and forth. He turned and smiled at Jake.
You came to play and we’re really glad
“Brexbin!”
The blue Bearberry Bear waved with a smile. “Hi everybody! I’m pretending to be a pilot.” Brexbin pulled back on the stick and sent the team sliding to the back once more.
Thorne was unfazed by the turbulent ride. His powerful hands gripped the bench and he climbed. It wasn’t a jungle vine or a tree, but he pulled himself to the cockpit with ease and seized the bear from the pilot’s seat.
The aircraft returned to level on its own as soon as the bear’s influence was removed. The team got to their feet and Kat pulled the lever to lower the ramp.
“Let me go, Thorne. I have to make people happy.”
He marched the struggling bear to the rear of the aircraft as the ramp opened. The wind howled in and Thorne shouted above it. “I’m about to make a bunch of people truly happy, you foul creature.”
“I don’t want to go alone.” Brexbin grabbed a handful of Thorne’s hair and dropped. Both machines tumbled out the back of the aircraft.
Kat screamed and rushed to the edge.
Brexbin had a hold of the ramp. Thorne had a hold of Brexbin. The bear smiled. “Let’s make a deal.”
“Cut us free, my Queen. This foul creature cannot be allowed to harm another person.”
“I won’t let you go!” Kat screamed. “Not now. Not after all this time.”
“It’s okay, my love. It’s clear now that I don’t belong in your world. I belong in Kandallaha.”
“I won’t let you go!”
“Then you’ll have to keep me, too!” Brexbin giggled. “It’ll be fun.”
Thorne reached up and grabbed Brexbin’s paw. He smiled at Kat. “I love you, dearest Katherine.”
“Don’t you do it, Thorne!”
Thorne smiled and one last twinkle passed through his eye before he pulled Brexbin’s grip free of the plane. The Bearberry Bear squealed as he plummeted into the ocean below. Thorne didn’t make a sound. At first.
“What is happening?” Thorne stared at the T-Rex claws gripping his arm.
“The lady says ‘you stay,’ you stay. You got that?” Glitch pulled the jungle king back into the aircraft and set him down on the bench.
Kat threw her arms around him as the loading door closed once more and the islands faded from view.
