Scar's Perspective-

I wonder what they're doing on Cleo's bridge.

Scar started walking over to where most people were, on Cleo's bridge.

He wanted to invite them to the Rancher's funeral.

Oooo. That's a lot of TNT.

Scar started bridging over to the TNT while talking to the people on Cleo's bridge.

Etho had run over to the TNT, then ran back to Joel.

But sadly, Scar didn't notice what Etho did.

"Hey! Do you guys want to go-"

BOOM!

Scar got launched off his bridge and died, causing Grian to die as well.

"What just- Grian I'm so sorry." Scar said when they respawned in their base.

"Oh no. Etho put a skulk sensor near the TNT and your voice activated it." Grian said.

"I'm so stupid." Scar said, "Not only did I lose one of our lives, but I lost two. Now we're red!"

Grian hugged Scar, "It's okay. It'll be okay. Come on, let's grab our stuff."

-

"Hey Scar. Do you have a flint and steel?" Scott asked Scar after he gathered his stuff.

"Yeah. Here." Scar said, giving it to Scott.

"Thanks! And- er- do you want some food?" Scott asked.

"Yes please. I still can't believe I died." Scar said, taking the food Scott had handed him.

"Yeah. It was a good trick that Etho and Joel did."

Scar death stared Scott.

"Now you were saying something about a funeral?"

"I was just inviting you guys to the Ranchers funeral."

"Me and Cleo will be there. Just let me get this done." Scott said, then he ran off.

I'm confused.

Suddenly Scar felt someone tap him on the shoulder.

Scar jumped.

"It's okay! It's just me." Grian said.

Scar blushed, "What do you need, my love?"

Grian kissed Scar on the cheek, "If you want to do the funeral, we'd better do it soon. Night's going to fall."

"Okay."

Scar held Grian's hand, and they set up a gravestone in the Ranch.

Then Martyn showed up.

"Hey Martyn. We're-we're going to say a few words for Tim."

"Oh! I thought this was a funeral for a burning ship."

Grian and Scar looked up and saw that the Relation-Ship was burning.

"OH! Scar- Scar did you do that?" Grian asked.

"Technically, but not. I didn't actually ignite the ship, but I gave the flint and steel to someone else."

"Oh no."

"I wish I could take credit for it."

"Well, it's not a song for ship to go down to, but it's a bop." Grian said, playing a song.

"Oh this? This is great!" Martyn said.

Cleo and Scott then showed up.

'Scott- Bye, bye ship.'

Scar's phone buzzed.

"I salute you Relation-Ship." Scar said, saluting.

Grian laughed and they all started saluting.

Then their phones buzzed,

'Joel- IF THE SHIP BURNS EVERYTHING BURNS!!1!!!'

Oh no. Scar thought.

Scar and Grian ran back to their home, making sure that it was okay...

But they were too late.

"IF THE SHIP BURNS-"

"EVERYTHING BURNS!" Etho finished.

Scar ran over to the panda reserve, or at least, what was left of it.

Pandas were scattered around; the walls were burned and some of the pandas were dead.

Scar stood in front of the reserve, staring at it.

Tears came streaming down his face.

"IF THE SHIP BURNS-"

"EVERYTHING BURNS!"

Etho and Joel shouted in the background.

"Scar... I'm so sorry." Grian said, approaching Scar.

It's gone... everything.

Scar's breath started rushing.

Grian hugged Scar, "It'll be okay."

"It's gone... everything. The Jellie's..." Scar started crying.

"Shhh." Grian soothed Scar.

Scar hugged Grian back and continued to cry.

"I love you." Grian said.

"I l-love you t-too." Scar said.

Grian kissed Scar's forehead and he smiled.

"Everything will be okay." Grian whispered, "We'll figure it out. Let's team up with the Red Names."

"Are you sure? They got rid of our homes. Of the JELLIE'S!" Scar shouted, shaking.

"But if we team up with them, we'll be able to make it to the end and get rid of the yellow names!" Grian said, "Just trust me, this makes the most logical sense."

Scar was silent but nodded, "I just want to avenge the Jellie's."

"I know." Grian said.

Scar caught his breath and kissed Grian.
