"Zander!" the little boy shouted once more as the young man held him carefully with his arms. And all of a sudden, Zander's legs and feet reappeared. Surprised and taken aback, the young man dropped, sitting once more to the ground still holding Zander in his arms. He cried and cried looking at the Henry's younger brother. The massive house continued burning. Worried that some full-bodied and half-bodied creatures might have survived the fire, the young man immediately carried little Zander in his arms. He ran and ran as fast as he could away from the burning house. He ran until he could no longer see the house. Exhausted and catching his breath, he stopped and looked intently at the boy he was carrying in his arms. Zander looked up at him and tightly, the young man embraced him.

           "From this day forward, I'll protect you, and love you like my own son, I promise," he vowed looking into Zander's eyes and embraced him once again.
