Hey guys,

Mine and DQ's aim for posting this story was on New Years but we both finished early so here it is. Enjoy and review to tell me what you think. I know its short but I'm using chapter one as a type of preface. Trust me when I say all other chapters are at the very minimum four pages, most over six. =]

Just some quick info: This is nine years into the future from the end of eternal love and killer seduction meaning that Ally and Jake are TWENTY FOUR. =]

For those of you who don't know this story is crossed over with dramaqueen-144's Violets stories. Her version of the crossover is called: Unintended Happiness. Enjoy! =]

The beginning-

The breeze flittered through my feathers and the sun warmed my hair. We were close. I could feel it, literally. I could feel my powers coming back to me and I could feel my hair growing longer. I was changing back and was glad for it. The years that had been while we were away had been hell without them and were tougher than I thought they would be. With every stroke of my wings and every breath I breathed in I could feel the strength returning.

I looked down casually into the deep brown eyes of my beautiful son. He had little black chicken wings with an odd emerald pattern on them. His eyes were just like mine but instead of emerald they were a deep brown like his father's. He had his father's hair other than the red streak through it but he had my nose and chin and was a real momma's boy.

Shadow was just two years old and soon would have a newborn baby sibling to play with. To think that when I was last with my full family I had just gotten together with Jake, now I was heading home for a reunion with Jake, a son and a soon to be baby number two. I felt a wing tip brush mine causing me to look up into Jake's eyes. He smiled at me reaching out for Shadow. With a quick kiss on the forehead he was off and into his father's arms as we finally saw the house we were looking for coming into view.

It was very quaint and was in complete solitude just the way all of us preferred to be. Carefully we descended into the back yard but just before we could my wing touched Jake's accidentally causing him to go off balance where he grabbed my hand and then we were both falling with our son smiling and laughing thinking it was a joke.

Jake wrapped his strong arms around me and landed on his back on the ground with an oof. I rolled off him protecting my stomach before jumping to my feet, turning around and helping him up.

"Are you okay Jake?" I was being a worried mother hen thanks to the hormones. I fussed and buzzed around him looking for blood but saw none and eventually decided that he survived.

"Mama look, mama look!" came Shadow's voice from above me. Wait, above me!?

I looked up sharply pinpointing him hovering just above Jake's head. His little chicken wings failed then making Jake reach out and grab him.

"Please don't try to fly without us knowing you are Shadow, but that was great." No way was I going to ruin his fun but I had to make sure he didn't just go off flying and then he crashed somewhere hurt.

"Okay Mama." What did I tell you, complete momma's boy.

A shriek came from the house causing us to remember where we were. Quickly we walked up to the backdoor before opening it widely to see…a disaster.
