I stood holding the hand of my three year old daughter staring at the house that was once my mothers, and I wondered if now, three years after my disappearance how everyone was and out of all the people I cared about how my beautiful daughters father was. Everyday I thought about him and everyday my heart ached. I hated garret for everything he did to me. Tearing me away from my family and not letting me go. I gave birth to my daughter in a cave for Christs sake all alone because garret and Carly had left me there alone to rot. I cried daily and I struggled to keep not only myself but also my baby healthy.

When she was first born there were a few months when I thought she was a goner. I don't even know how tall she was or how heavy she was when she was born, she doesn't even have a birth certificate. I had planned for my baby to grow up healthy in a world full of people and love but she grew up in a dark world and now at the age of three she had know idea that she had a father. She barely spoke and when she did you could hardly understand her but as I looked into her deep chocolate eyes so much like mine I saw hope love, lost, and determination, but also a deep sadness, like she was supposed to have someone else to grow up with but she didn't know who or how she knew it.

Oh how I loved her! She looked so much like her father, but she also had a lot of features that resembled me and that was one of the big things I loved about her. I could not believe that I was this close to seeing her father and grandmother and aunts and uncles and hopefully a few cousins. I also wondered frequently about my sister. She probably saw that I was standing here waiting for the right moment to enter the house.

You got that right sis and we're all still here, waiting for you now get your butt in this house and quit moping around!

I thought I heard her voice in my head but then I realized I was just hearing things and shook my head to get the depressing thought of my sister out. She saw the future and read peoples minds, along with putting thoughts into your head and she did a lot of other things that she'd had gradually developed just like I had developed super speed and gills. I had probably missed their and cloud's wedding and honey moon also.

My life was so misconjumbled (that word was like that on purpose) and screwed up all because of that (insert bad word of your choice here) Garret and its thing or minion or partner Carly, I hope they die. Those butt heads left me in a cave alone and pregnant to hopefully die. But what they didn't think about was how much alone time living i had in my life and how good a possibility it was that i survived. Now look at me standing here praying that my sister was reading every single thought going through my mind and holding the hand of my brilliant gorgeous daughter.(Remember me saying that about my daughter or anyone is a big step since I don't like gushy emotion so be proud of me.) I wanted so much for my daughter to meet her huge family but i was afraid of them not recognizing me or not wanting me or not accepting me back so I didn't want to go up to this house.

"Mommy," I looked down at my daughter, Sky Ride,and saw sadness on her face.

"Yes honey?" I asked using the same calm sweet voice that I had used on angel when she was that age and ever since till she was about 7 or 8.

"What are we doing here? Who are the people I feel inside the house?" She asked in her small quiet voice that reminded me of her father when he was back in his bubble before Angel disappeared when she was six.

"What do you mean feel?"

"I can feel that there are a lot of people in this house. They are all sad. They have lost some one very dear to them but out of all of them two of them stick ouit to me for some reason."

"What do they feel like?" by this point I was crouched down to face her.

"Well one of them is strong. Its a he and he is very very depressed. He seems very quiet and alone. like he doesn't want to live or be any where near civilization. he seems completely distant and strange, like hes already drifting toward death." My eyes welled up in tears.

"And the other?" I asked holding back the sobs that threatened to escape me.

"One of them is a girl she can read my mind and is happy and in love but also sad, like shes missing another half. She loves the man dearly but still she cannot stop thinking about whats missing whats hurting her." This was the most I'd ever heard her speak and it had been so clearly. At her last statement the waterworks started and wouldn't stop. I pulled Sky into a tight hug and we just stayed there at the edge of the woods hugging for what seemed like a being there is what pulled me threw.

My daughter is the reason I was here today and not dead because I wanted a life for her. That and Fang. I loved him greatly and I wanted to be with him but the fact that my daughter was so strange and determined plus being upset about my family and then all of that talking just made me start crying and I couldn't stop. Sky hugged me back not asking me why I was crying just holding her mother the way Fang held me when I was sad although not as lovey dovey in more of a loving mother daughter way. And then she sighed.

"mom do you know who they are?" She asked innocently.

"I think so Sky, I think so."I dried my eyes and tried but failed to hide my mask of emotions. I wasn't her father that was not my specialty.
