them puzzled by the
turn of events.
    "Family reunion?" She questioned, looking from Seth
to Brigid and back again.
    "Brigid?" Seth questioned. "How?"
    She pointed to Marc. "He's the reason our whole
family died. I didn't see you with the others when I awoke, Seth. I
just assumed he took your body to spite me and make me wonder."
    "How is it possible that we've both been, well, still
of this earth this whole time and never knew?"
    "Your lovely sister went rogue. Kitten didn't like to
play, and she hid from me for a long time, but I see she's finally
found that fiery spirit that attracted me to her all those years
ago, along with some new friends," he nodded his head behind him
towards Jaxon.
    "Okay, seriously, what's going on here? Seth?
Brigid?" Jaxon looked between the two of them, never removing her
calming hand from Marc’s neck.
    Seth was the first to answer. "It's my sister, Jax.
Remember the sketch Caislyn did of Marc with the girl? The one she
said was of the past instead of the future?"
    "Oh," realization dawned on Jaxon all of a sudden,
"Oh! Oh, God. And all this time, neither of you knew the other was
still alive?"
    "Well, not exactly alive, Jax, but no, we weren't
aware. At least, I wasn't" Brigid added, before going to her
brother and hugging him.
    Seth just shook his head, "Brigid, if I had known..."
He released Brigid from the hug, slowly, and then sunk down on the
couch across from where Jax was still standing behind Marc. Jax had
to stop herself from going to him and remember that she still had
information to get.
    She looked down at Marc, squeezed harder and said,
"now that you just got off on destroying someone's family all over
again, I do believe you were about to tell me a story..."

THE ALTERNATIVE
     
    "Ash, where are you taking me exactly?" Caislyn
called to him as he walked ahead of her into the forest. He just
smiled back over his shoulder at her and kept on walking. She
continued to follow, intrigued by the fact that their training
session was finally going to be held somewhere other than the
stupid RV that had become almost like a jail cell to her.
    "I think your abilities were being stifled in that
monstrosity. The Fey have always weaved their greatest magics in
nature. You need to learn to use what comes natural to you, and I
don't think being stuck in an RV is natural." It was then that Ash
pulled back on the browned, dead looking brush before him and
revealed a clearing in the woods. Caislyn could hear the babbling
sounds of the stream up ahead, and as she walked into the clearing
she saw the picnic that was spread out on a blanket, waiting for
them.
    "Ash," she started, but he just took her by the hand
and sat her down. "Ash," Caislyn tried again, "I did not come out
here for a date. No matter what's happened between Gregore and I,
we are still married. I won't betray that again."
    "We are training, and you are going to get hungry. I
can just be a nice person you know." She eyed him wearily, but the
hurt look in his eyes convinced her not to press any further. She
looked around and took note that there were berries, cheeses,
crackers, and more along with juice sitting there waiting.
Caislyn’s stomach betrayed her and started rumbling frantically,
just as her mouth started watering at the sight of all that food.
“See, someone has to think ahead for you. It’s not just you anymore
Cais.” Ash nodded to her belly, which was starting to show signs of
growth.
    "Okay, well, let's get started then," she said as she
picked up an apple slice, waggled it in front of Ash with a roll of
her eyes, and popped it into her mouth.
    Ash chuckled before starting the lesson for the day.
"Look around, Caislyn." Ash watched Caislyn as she did just that.
She wasn't sure what reaction he was looking for, but she decided
to ignore him, and focus on the world around them as he had asked.
She saw the picnic he had planned for them. She saw the forest
surrounding them, and then she realized she was seeing
