Zahn stood in awe at the dying man, he could feel his life leaving the room. The feeling of death wasnt as much of a burden as the weight of loss and purposelessness. He stood there staring at the old mans mouth move, not hearing a single word, until the mouth ceased its movement and mary let out a shrill noise and started crying. Zahn quickly comforted her, putting an arm around her back and resting his head on her cheek. His ears twitched with every sob she let out, then the other children started up, You could tell this noise would cause problems with the neighbors. Surely they would come and try to silence the children themselves. Zahny stood up straight and turned to all the other kids.

[color=6ecff6][b]"Shhhhhhh... Everyone I know this is a horrible thing but we need to keep our wits!"[/b][/color] He strained his voice to be heard by the other kids. To no avail he turned to Mary thinking that she may be able to calm the kids. [color=6ecff6]"Mary, We must quiet the others, they are much too loud, besides we all know that Fritz wouldnt want us to destroy everything he has done so soon after his passing. We must stay strong and thrive. Please, Mary, Help me and the rest of us be strong right now."[/color] He turned to the kids one last time then back to mary, unsure of what to do. Noticing kids already starting to leave the room and presumably the building to fend for themselves once more. Zahn hung his head in defeat. The task of making a creed of orphans to all work together to survive was an ambitious goal. But Zahn had made his mind, They will unite together and they will survive, They will all rise to the top no matter how long it took or how much was needed to do it. He turned to mary once more and leaned down next to her, [color=6ecff6]"We must inspire the others to stick together and to thrive, not only survive. We need to prove ourselves and get out of dirt town. Are you with me?"[/color]
