Sage stayed inside with the kids while the other two trained. He knew he should probably be doing something useful, but he was terrified something would happen to the kids if he left the room

Celeste went out to the woods with Cassian, finding a clear spot to train, going over all the drills she was taught while in the training academy.

After a while of sitting there, his energy forced him to get up and pace circles around the room. He wasn't willing to leave, but his nervous energy was getting a little bit out of control

Celeste and Cassian trained for hours, coming back well into the day.

Sage stuck pretty close to the kids all day, though he did venture out to the kitchen when Celeste and cassian came back inside.

Celeste left the kiddos with Cassian. She trusted him. Celeste followed Sage to the kitchen. He looked a little worked up, high strung. "Hey, babe, you okay?"

Sage had glanced over at Celeste when she came over to him, and shrugged with a sigh. "I just....I'm worried about the kids," he sighed. "We can't keep this up for much longer," he added.

Celeste nodded. "It won't be long," she whispered. "Cassian is going back tonight and should be back in two days with his army, same with the Weres,"

Sage let out a soft breath, raking his fingers through his hair. "I hope it'll be enough," he whispered, leaning into her a bit

Celeste nodded, burying her face in his shoulder. "Me too,"
