After some time flew by; a double wedding between Dinah and Alfred and Maya and Zack was held. Alfred was really happy again; since he has a wife again and Sadie and Sienna have a mother. Zack smiled; he had a feeling that his mother had been watching along with the rest of his family in the Great Beyond.
"Your mother would be so proud of you," Maya commented.
"I agree," Zack added.
Then, they shared a loving nuzzle and a passionate kiss. Alfred and Dinah did the same thing. Dana was very happy for his sister and cousin; he, Lacey and both his sons congratulated both couples.
"Remember you guys; take care of each other," Dana stated.
"Oh, Dana; you sound just like Grandpa," Dinah nudged Dana in the side lightly with her paw.
Dana chuckled at that remark.
After a while, everyone gathered at the Thundering Falls. Maya and Zack shoved a handful of sweet bubbles into each others mouths. Topsy saw that and chuckled bfore bowing his head and sighing.
"Me and Elaine did that when we first got married years ago; come to think of it; that's also what me and Tria did when we got married," Topsy replied, more to himself.
Grandma and Grandpa Longneck overheard him and lowered their heads to his level. His mother, grandmother and great-grandfather also walked up to him.
"Something the matter, dear?" Grandma asked.
Topsy sighed and closed his eyes briefly before opening them again.
"I was just remembering what Elaine and I did when we were newlyweds; and the same with me and Tria; seeing Maya and Zack stuffing each others faces with sweet bubbles brought back some memories," Topsy explained.
"Hey; we understand; you had a lot of bad things happen to you whether you deserved them or not," Theresa said, and then nuzzled him.
Topsy smiled; he was beginning to cheer up. Soon enough, the deceased members of Topsy's immediate family showed up in ghost form; his maternal grandfather Troy, his identical twin brother Trike and his aunt Tricia. The rest of the herd was able to see them for some reason.
"I don't believe this; you're all here," Topsy said.
"Believe it, Topsy; you've grown so much since I last saw you," Troy said.
"Dad! I've missed you so much," Theresa exclaimed.
Troy chuckled.
"I missed you all; and we've been watching everything after all these years; including the double wedding of these fine young couples," Troy responded.
"Yeah; my granddaughter Dinah with her husband Alfred, and my second oldest granddaughter Maya and her husband Zack," Topsy explained.
Soon enough, Troy noticed the fin on the back of Zack's neck.
"He ain't a flathead; but a fin-neck," Troy pointed out.
"That's right, Grandpa," Topsy said.
Just then, Topsy saw his aunt Tricia come forward.
"I noticed that years ago, you named your youngest daughter after me; I'm so honored," Aunt Tricia said.
"Glad you think so, Aunt Tricia; and thanks for saving my life; if it weren't for you; I wouldn't be standing here and also wouldn't have such a great family; even though our family doesn't contain just threehorns," Topsy explained.
Aunt Tricia smiled.
"I wasn't gonna let you die; even if it was at the expense of my own life; sure that egg stealer got me; but, I died a hero," Aunt Tricia claimed.
"You sure did; you're my hero," Topsy commented.
Aunt Tricia smiled.
After a while, the rest of the herd spent as much time with the deceased threehorns before they had to leave again. Topsy hasn't seen his grandfather since he was an eight year old kid and the old guy was taking his last breath. As the deceased departed, a warm wind blew over the herd as if they were giving them a hug. It was the most amazing experience Topsy ever had; besides the time Elaine came back as a ghost years before. Topsy and a few others began to shed some tears of joy after that experience.
Everything has gotten back to normal; the herd felt like nothing could go wrong.
A/N: Last chapter of this part; there'll soon be a part 3. A few dead OC's have been introduced. Troy (same coloration as Dinah, with green eyes), Tricia I (dark grey coloration with green eyes; namesake of Topsy and Tria's daughter). I don't need to describe Trike; since I mentioned that he's Topsy's identical twin.
