Chapter 4: Heroes of Newtopia
Meanwhile, in the grand city of Newtopia, Aaron and Finley slowly woke up in a bright, peaceful hospital room. The walls were made of polished stone, and the windows let in soft golden light.
"Ugh… my head," Aaron groaned, sitting up.
Finley rubbed his eyes. "Where… are we now?"
A kind newt nurse entered the room and smiled. "You're in Newtopia. You two took quite the fall, but you're safe now."
After resting a while longer, Aaron and Finley were given fresh clothes—and with them, long flowing Newtopian capes.
"Whoa… look at this cape!" Aaron grinned, throwing it around his shoulders.
"Yeah, this is awesome," said Finley as he fastened his own.
The two looked at each other, then back at their new capes, standing tall.
"You know what?" Aaron said with a grin. "We could totally be heroes for Newtopia."
Finley smirked. "Or at least honorary knights or something."
They fist-bumped, already feeling the weight of a bigger adventure waiting just ahead.
