Final Chapter 14

Tyler felt cold. Not the normal cold that you would feel when it's snowing out, try the type of cold that has pins and needles stabbing your every body part. That was the true cold Tyler was feeling. He had his jaw clamped shut as firmly as he could, his eyes barely opened as the river wrapped around his body, dragging him along like he was a piece of drift wood. He could hardly make out two… Or was it three blurry figures swimming towards him. Wait swimming? In this current?

They had to be suicidal, he spotted a blotch of blonde hair and he couldn't help but laugh mentally. Reid. Of course it was, that guy was insane. He tried to lift his arm up to reach towards his insane brothers, but the current was making it hard, what made it even harder was he couldn't focus enough to use. What was the real kicker was when his head came into contact with a rock; he opened his mouth out of instinct and released all his precious air. The blurry figures of his brothers became even blurrier before Tyler closed his eyes and his body went limp, surrendering to the cold embrace of the unforgiving river.

Chase tried to launch himself into the air to make a get away but Mr. Simms raced forward, grabbed the teen's ankle and threw him back onto the ground. Chase gritted his teeth as he landed harshly on his back.

"You have no idea who you are messing with." Chase spat as he clambered back to his feet.

"Correction boy, you have no idea whose son's you messed with." Mr. Garwin growled before thrusting his right hand out, a ball of power knocking Chase backwards into the side of the bridge.

"You have no chance against us." Mr. Parry said as he stood side by side with the other 2 men as they advanced on the now limping teen.

"This is payback for my son. Our sons." Mr. Simms snarled and as one the fathers held up both their hands and merged their powers as a ring of fire expanded from each of their pupils before they sent the largest blast of power ever created by user's. The power engulfed Chase, who this time couldn't manage to make a get away. His dying screams flew away on the wind as the power burned him from the inside out. It was a painful way to go out but the fathers felt he deserved it for everything he had done. All the innocent lives he had ruined or taken. The fire died out and soon nothing was left of Chase Collins but ash. The wind swept that away soon after the battle was finished. Leaving nothing left of the horrible teen who had caused so much horror.

Exchanging looks of triumph the fathers then rushed to the edge of the bridge where the four teenaged boys had fallen slash jumped into. They each scanned the river with their power, their hearts beating fast and faster as they couldn't find any trace of their boys.

"Whoa, did you all feel that?" Mr. Parry gasped as his senses were bombarded with a sudden surge of power.

"That's our boys." Mr. Simms chuckled softly as the three older men rushed down the length of the bridge and scaled down the side of the hill that led down to the shoreline.

Moments later four heads emerged from the surface of the river, all but one gasping for air. Caleb and Reid swam forward first, helping Pogue who was carrying an unconscious Tyler under one of his arms, keeping the brunette's head above the water current. Their fathers reached out and helped their sons out of the water. Pogue lay Tyler down on his back before placing his ear to the youngest mouth and nose.

"He's not breathing!" Pogue reported in a panic before moving back and let Caleb do CPR.

"Where is Chase?" Reid asked his dad, eyes darting around looking for the asshole who did this to his baby brother.

"Don't worry about him son, he is now dust in the wind." Mr. Garwin smirked and Reid let out a shaky laugh before turning his attention back to Caleb and Tyler. Reid started to bite his thumbnail as he watched feeling helpless. Silence landed over the small group before Tyler thankfully spat out water and coughed with a dry throat. He opened his eyes and squinted around at the group.

"God, Baby Boy. Don't EVER do that again." Caleb breathed out before pulling Baby Boy into a hug, quickly joined by Pogue and Reid.

"Sorry." Tyler whispered as he buried his head against Caleb's neck. He was cold and shaking but he felt safer than he had in a while. He was home and he planed to stay with his brothers until the end. Nothing, not even nightmares would ever drive him away again.

The fathers watched this reunion with happy hearts; Mr. Simms was the lightest and most joyful. His son was alive and was coming home with them, with him.

A few days had passed since the bridge incident and Tyler was going to make his grand entrance back at Spencer with his brothers. As one big happy family the boys including their fathers had all crashed at the Simms home and literally watched movies, played video games, ate and slept for the past days. It was one of the best memories they all had when they were together like that.

"I really rather not go back to class, can't we take another sick day?" Tyler whined as he pulled into a parking space by the classrooms.

"Our dads had to pull some strings to just get us out of the days we missed." Caleb reminded the youngest with a small smile on his face.

"Yeah, yeah. I don't see why it couldn't have been another week though. I went through a traumatic experience!" Tyler complained as they all got out of the Hummer.

"You pulled a prank on us yesterday with Reid, I think you are healed Baby Boy." Pogue laughed slinging his arm over the smaller boy's thin shoulders. Tyler just pouted, causing the other three boys to laugh as they pushed open the doors. Almost right away Sarah and Katie came to join them and attached themselves to their boyfriends. They welcomed Ty back as they all headed to class. They passed Aaron on the way; Tyler caught the teen's eyes and smirked. Aaron braced himself against his locker before rushing down the hall the other way of the brunette, his lackeys and girlfriend following him calling after him confused. The group minus Tyler looked at each other confused and Tyler just burst out laughing. He couldn't help it; their faces were just too funny.

"I can't say hanging out with Chase was a total waste." Tyler smirked as he sauntered into class and up to his seat.

"I don't even want to know." Caleb groaned rubbing his forehead. They could hear Tyler's laughter from his seat at that statement. They knew that everything wouldn't be the same again but everything would work out in the end. It always did, as long as they stuck together nothing and no one could tear them apart. They were the Son's after all. Brothers until the end and beyond.
