Everything started to blur and turn white before they were back in the dark fruit cellar. Miriam looked to the bed of her once cherished love. She used all the strength she had left to crawl to the monitor and unplug it. The beeping stilled and the room grew silent.
"He said he was going to bring you home to make a new plan and was attacked. James wasn't even there was we arrived." Miriam cried until her eyes couldn't take it anymore.
Brayden help Lilly to lean against the wall as he walked to his mother-in-law to finish their conversation. “Other than a slight pain in the chest do you have any other pain from the jumps?”
“I hurt everywhere Brayden but I doubt it has to do with jumping.” Miriam said holding her head as she tried to hold in her vomit. “I loved a man that used me to create a child to also be used t

Not just any child their child, her child, little sweet perfect Niamh. They first went back trying to save her but found it actually caused a worse fate for mankind than was worth saving one child.

Limping to the pedestal the man finally falls to his knees coughing up blood. "50 long years it's been. 50 years! You come here after 50 years to cough blood at my feet?" The deep husky voice laced with malice throws at his obviously unworthy servant. "I.. *cough* am... *cough* truly sorry..." The bloodied man coughs until blood is all across the floor. "Veronica!"

Uncharted Clean Up
"So what you're saying is the bastard's hand twitched BEFORE you left the room but you still left him without telling me to come here?" Ivan was standing still staring at the empty blood-stained bed. Exhaling James paced by the door trying to piece everything together. "I said I wasn't sure if it was a twitch or if it was blood falling. But you know how Miriam is, she..." "I know she gets hysterical especially when she is in shock. Claire is with her now so she'll be fine. You would think the woman born from the worst belligerent man ever known would have some thicker skin." Ivan scoffed as he leaned in to take a closer look at the IV that was once attached to the supposed-to-be corpse. "Sadly I think watching her mother be killed by that man is what made her actually fear everything. It is a miracle she was able

Lilly let Brayden pull her to their room before watching him close the door. She noticed their hands still together as he pulled her into a tight embrace. They stood in the entrance to their room in silence before Brayden finally said, "You should get to bed." He went to let go when she tightened her hold on him and asked. "Just me?" Brayden placed his arms back around her tiny waist before picking her up. She instinctively wrapped her legs around his waist laying her head on his shoulder. Chuckling he said, "Careful sweetheart or I might not be able to remain a gentleman."

Knowing the pain she feels now is nothing compared to what she will feel later only makes her movements slow almost to a total stand still.
