Kin AU Background
I have based this AU loosely off several others already out there such as Angela B's 7B Ranch, and the Brothers Universe once in existence. However, I was always extremely interested in what would happen if Josiah were to marry Maude, there are so many references to an attraction between the two, but nothing ever seems to come of it. So on that note I decided to write a story featuring a character I don't normally favor (Josiah) and my favorite character Ezra! However, I got attracted to the idea of Ezra as a little boy (hey, blame it on Ezra's Littleverse and the Mag7kids Yahoo groups) ( and this AU is the result. Although reading the background is not a requirement it may help you understand some things because unlike my last story I have actually planned things out ahead of time. As for all my fans of A Thief's Promise, don't worry I have not given up on it, still in development, actually it is that darn Josiah who is holding me up LOL. Well, on to the character description, oh before I forget my disclaimer is still that I do not own any of the seven, some nutcases some where else do and I have no professional background in, well, any of the stuff in my stories. So I can not be held responsible for misleading you if I happen to get something wrong. Kindly inform me and I will do my best to change it, and remember Play Nice.

Sarah and Adam Travis: Mistakenly killed in the same car fire/crash that took Stephen's life. Sarah's car had broken down and knowing that Chris was at a police conference in Denver she called his brother Stephen to come pick her up. On the way to drop them off at Orin's and recruit Josiah to help him start up the car, a car came out of nowhere and drove them off the road where they hit a utility pole killing Stephen and injuring Sarah and Adam. However, the car burst into flames and even though passerby's pulled Adam from the car they were unable to reach Sarah in time. Sadly, Adam died a few days later of injuries sustained in the car crash. It was later found that the wreck was no accident and that a Mr. , the man driving the other car had been trying to get Stephen to sell his land for awhile. Stephen had refused and on that fateful day Mr. hit Stephen's car intending it to go off the road and scare him into selling his land. He never intended for it to hit the utility pole nor for Stephen or anyone else to die. Mr. is now currently serving a life sentence with no parole in Denver. Age at time of death: Sarah: Adam : four years
