Merida was watching the 아기 for the day, which gave the others PERFECT timing to prepare for her special feast. She LOVED them! She'd risk her own life for theirs. *Their lives are so pure!* she thought. That thought almost made her cry-literally. She briefly blinked to keep herself from breaking down. Suddenly, Mace began to climb on a foot stool.

"Whoa, lad! We don't want ya gettin' hurt!" Merida said as she rushed over and scooped him up. But all didn't go so well as he began to cry. "What's wrong, lad?" Merida sweet-talked. Thankfully, she knew what to do to cheer him up. She sat him down 다음 to Ping and began to make funny faces. Mace laughed along with Ping. *Mission accomplished!* Merida thought. She took the tots to Mace's room and they played for hours on end.

Meanwhile outside, everyone was prepping for the feast. "I hope Merida still likes the deer meat." Pocahontas said. "I'm sure she will. The last time we were here, she devoured it!" 뮬란 replied. "Of course, her father devours ANY kind of meat!" Pocahontas joked. She and 뮬란 laughed. John walked by. "Me and Shang just finished the heavy-lifting. Any of 당신 need help?" he offered casually. "I think we've about got it." 뮬란 answered. Pocahontas sought the opportunity to talk to him. "Can I talk to you?" she asked.

John nodded and Pocahontas took his hand and went to a near-by teepee. "I've been thinking about what 당신 said. 당신 know, about having 더 많이 children." she confessed. "And..." John replied. "I'm all in." Pocahontas vowed. John hugged her. "I don't want to have any right now. Maybe when Mace is alittle older." she said. "I agree. For now, I just want to give him all my love." John replied. "He means the world to me. I don't know what I'd do if I 로스트 him." he confessed.

"He's that place in my universe." Pocahontas chimed. "I just hope Merida knows how to take care of him." John stated. John LOVED Merida, but he DID have some limitations with her. "Don't worry John. She's done it with Ping before." Pocahontas reassured. John just smirked and kissed her hand. 뮬란 suddenly entered. "Am I interrupting anything?" she asked feeling awkward. "No. What'd we miss?" John reassured.

뮬란 bowed her head slightly. Pocahontas and John looked at each other then followed her. "What seems to be the problem?" Pocahontas asked. "Shang cut his arm." 뮬란 answered as Shang came out with a pretty banged-up arm. Luckily, there was only minor bleeding. "That's nothing. I'll take him to Kekata and get it bandaged." Pocahontas stated. She led Shang to Kekata's teepee.

John walked back over to the cottage to check on Merida and the babies. He smiled when he found all 3 of them fast asleep. He quietly walked over to Mace, picked him up, and put him to bed. "Is everything OK over here?" 뮬란 asked as she entered the cottage. She then smiled at the sleeping tots. "I knew I could trust Merida." she said as she put Ping to bed. *I was wrong about my skepticism.* John thought.
