Cameron Mitchell sighed, looking out towards the sky as his children played together. His smallest one, Wendy bumped into his leg, trying to draw his attention.
“Daddy!”
Cam tore his eyes away from the horizon and smiled. “Yes, my dear?” Wendy held her hands up as Cam scooped her up and cuddled her, holding on her his hip. “Is that all?”
“No, Daddy,” Wendy told him, putting her head on his shoulder. “Why are you so sad, Daddy?”
Cam sighed and kissed her head. “Because I lost something precious a long time ago... and while I have all of you, part of me longs for it again.”
“What is it?” Wendy asked.
“Something that I can’t speak of,” Cam told her, holding her close. “Don’t fret. I have you.”
Wendy nodded sadly and kissed his cheeks. “I love you, Daddy.”
“I love you too, Wendy. You’re my sweet baby.”
She wiggled and he set her down, watching as she ran to play with his sons. Cam watched them for a bit before his gaze went back to the Horizon.

John, the oldest son, looked at Cole, Daniel and finally Wendy as they all sat in his room. “So, Dad’s lost something...”
“He has. That’s what he told me,” Wendy said.
“Perhaps we could find it,” Daniel asked. “There is that one locked room... He never goes in and we’re not allowed.”
Cole smiled. “I’ve been practicing my locking picking!” he said as the siblings looked at each other and stood up.
Wendy went downstairs to check on what their Daddy was doing while the three boys went to the locked room. Cole started picking the lock as John looked out for him and Daniel got ready to rush inside.
Cole grinned as the door popped open. “Score.”

Cam frowned as Wendy disappeared and knew something was going on. He scowled and left the kitchen as he headed upstairs and felt something in his heart. Something he didn’t know how to deal with. Cam’s jaw dropped as he rushed forward, seeing his feathers. He pulled it away from John who was holding it and put it on, transforming into a swan again.
***
Five swans flew towards the sun, disappearing into the horizon.
