Pony struggles in a world without parents, and can't help feeling forgotten.

It has been four years since Soda had been drafted to fight in the war in Vietnam. It has been three and a half years since he was captured and held prisoner by enemy soldiers. Now, returning after being a POW Soda is forced to deal with what happened to him while trying to cope with the time that was taken from him. [Sequel to Days Slide and the Years Go By]

Sometimes, I wonder what my life would've been like if I'd never written that stupid theme. If I'd been allowed to stay with my brothers. If I hadn't been forced to move from home to home.

Fire and water. Dead heroes. I am not the same anymore. I am floating on the surface, dazed, so afraid that someone, something, will come and grab me and drag me down. Because this time, I'm not sure I can get up again.

Everyone has secrets. They just never knew one of their parents had something like this. Some shocking revelations threaten to unravel what's always been known as truth.

The last letter Soda sends home from Vietnam. Everything he wants to say to his brothers and never did. Post-novel Oneshot
