Chapter 10. The End

AN: Adios Amigos

Two days later...

Athos and Porthos sit at their normal table in the garrison, looking off into space as Aramis walks over with a bandage over his cheek.

"Is the kid still sleeping?" Porthos asks taking a drink from his cup.

"Yes, and I'm not surprised because you kept him up half the night playing cards", Aramis nagged.

"What else is he to do when you won't let him out of the infirmary! I'm wide awake. As you can see, so it wasn't that late", Porthos grins.

"As soon as he is well enough the King wishes to reward our efforts", Athos says almost sarcastically.

"Well I'll take a reward any day", Porthos's eyes shine.

"And we'll go out for a proper drink", D'artagnan says walking over to them.

"D'artagnan! What did I say!" Aramis fumes.

"Don't move, but I thought that was more like a friendly suggestion" D'artagnan clips and Porthos and Athos snort while Aramis looks at them disapprovingly. D'artagnan takes a seat beside Athos and shrugs. "I do feel much better".

"Thats that Gascony Stubbornness in him", Porthos says pointedly.

"I'm really glad that we don't have to deal with that madman ever again, maybe we'll have some peace for a while", D'artagnan says with a yawn and the others nod.

"Don't jinx it D'artagnan", Athos says peering at him with a smirk.

"If the Cap hears you, he will set up a list of things for you to do when you get back to being at top shape", Aramis laughs.

"I'm always at my best", D'artagnan says sitting up a bit more. There is a silence for a minute then Porthos stands.

"Well let's have a toast", Porthos says with a large grin he goes to get more glasses and comes back handing one to Aramis and D'artagnan.

"What are we toasting to so early in the morning?" Aramis asks.

"To going against the odds, winning against adversity and saving the King once again!"

"Don't forget getting to fight along side brothers in arms!" D'artagnan smiles raising his cup with Porthos.

"All for one", Athos says with a amused smile raising his cup and Aramis does also.

"And One For All!" They all say and take a big swig then place their cups back on the wooden table and smile at each other as the light from the new day shone brightly down on them.

End of Chapter 10 and end of the Story.

Short but sweet end. I hope you liked it, let me know! I sort of took a long break from stuff because my dog/best-friend... My labrador that I've had since I was 10 years old, passed away and I really didn't feel like doing anything, especially writing a happy ending to a fanfic but I didn't want to leave it hanging. Thank-you for following along and favoriting the story, and for supportive reviews I hope you have a great night/day. And if you have a pet, Make sure you spend more time with him/her and spoil them once in a while... just because you can. Adios Amigos!
