When night fell, the few residents on Fortress Four that knew about the movement of something on the mountain were tense. The soldiers on the wall were more alert than usual and patrols had doubled. Still, Sunshine wanted life on the base to continue as usual, so the news was kept under wraps.
There was another bonfire going and it was in the second wall. A group of children were singing a song while holding hands. Their young voices carried the hope for future. Parents that had cameras were recording as if the performance was a school play.
Ariel was watching from the side with his hands behind his back like a school principal.
