Chapter Text
Crosshair was running. Really fast too.
But as he felt the warm sands beneath his bare feet, the running slowed to an almost halt.
Crosshair did not need to run though. Not any more, not from anything or anyone.
For Crosshair was free, he was safe, content. Living his best life with his family, his new friends.
The sun on his face, the blues of the ocean and skies as wide as his eyes could see.
As Crosshair stopped in his steps, simply being in the moment, without urgency, he could finally breathe.
He could listen to the life all around him as he sat there in the warm sand, his toes digging in deep to the softness of it.The chatter and laughter of Omega and the clone boys by the shore, Wrecker and Hunter tossing a ball around. Tech and Echo a little farther away deep in their technobabble.
Batcher running amok with the moonyos, horseplay at best. Well, she was almost as big as a horse, a thought which made Crosshair chuckle.
Guess it was one of many, something Crosshair needed to get used to. The chuckle at the sound of play time, the peace of simply being on the beach on Pabu.
