Sorry for any spealling mistakes!
So, enjoy!
Second Chances
Dot was afraid for her life as she looked at the demon before her just then a girl was thrusted between her and the monster. She raised a gun that must reach her shoulder if they stood side by side and blasted the monster five feet away.
"GO! SAVE YOURSELF!" The girl yelled as her eyes shown yellow/reddish and her voice came out half beastly half human.
The monster was in shock as he saw the auburn haired girl and turned back into Sebastian's form.
"Ah! You pretend to be a Shadowhunter ten points to you!" The girl spoke with American accent.
"Who are you?" Sebastian asked as he walked closer to her and she fired again sending him five more feet away. But suddenly she stood behind him and he was held at knife pointing to his neck.
"My name is Vicky Leister, Child Of Time and you are messing with the history here and my mission is well to end you…too sad if you ask me. You could have taken your sister's side and kill your father. You could have found peace and healed from all the torment you went through maybe even found a girl to fall in love with her and maybe start a family down the road. To be honest, I saw all this possibilities in your timeline, it's sad that you choose to allow the past swallow you whole, Jonathan. Good luck in your next life time if you get one." Vicky said to him and ripped his throat and then pushed the body away from her and teleported away.
Dot was sitting in Magnus sofa telling them how she was spared and everyone were looking between each other in worry.
Who was that girl?
Vicky teleported back into TORCHWOOD base where Jack was waiting for her with Martha Jones and a young blond man.
"I'm home!" She yelled sarcastically and Jack laughed as he gave her a towel to wipe her knife and Martha helped her take the weapon off her.
"Vicky I wanted to introduce you to another Child of Time we discovered while you were gone. Vicky meet Gale, Gale meet Vicky Leister, she will be your trainer." Jack said happily and Vicky met his gaze and smiled.
"It didn't take long to be given a second life I see." Vicky said smiling to Gale who looked exactly like Sebastian/Jonathan did.
"My name is Gale Shivers and I suppose you mean my past life as Jonathan, correct?" He asked confused and slightly uncomfortable.
"Yes that is what I mean." Vicky said bluntly as he nodded clearly regretting what his past self had done. He watched her walk away and sighed in defeat he remembered what Vicky had told him before slicing his throat and he remembered how he felt. He felt regret and hope that maybe he will be given to meet the special someone that will make him feel in love.
Later that night Vicky sat in her sofa in her apartment when suddenly Gale teleported into the living room knocking some stuff off the living room table since he teleported on the table.
"WHAT THE FUCK? GALE?" Vicky exclaimed in shock as she held her book close to her chest.
"Hi!" He said smiling guilty.
"Still haven't gotten used to teleporting. I wanted to ask you a favor." Gale asked as he stood up and looked at Vicky straight in the eyes.
"What do you want?" Vicky asked tiredly.
"Why you don't like me? I'm not bad anymore! And I wanted to ask you if you took me back there to prove myself worthy, help Clary take out Valentine and then come back here and continue training!" Gale said quickly that made Vicky dizzy by only hearing him talk so fast.
"I don't hate you I just don't know you. And I can't take you back there because they are not going to believe you nor you are ready to fight! You can't even throw a proper punch!" Vicky tried to reason with him.
"Really? I'm a black belt in karate since I was a child, Vicky!" Gale exclaimed in disbelief.
"Okay then! Show me!" Vicky said as she stood up and got into a sparring position.
He charged at her and she ducked grabbing his leg and pulling him down and Vicky stood above him with her heel pressed on his face. Gale licked her foot which surprised her and she jumped away from him in disgust.
"The fuck?" She asked surprised.
"They smelled and taste awful you should take a foot bath and I should wash my mouth after that!" Gale said as he stood up and smirked at Vicky's raised eyebrows widen eyes.
"You licked my foot!" Vicky exclaimed still unable to believe it happened.
"I know I was there." Gale said in a duh tone and then charged at her Vicky tried to back away from him and duck but didn't realize that the couch was right behind her so she fell on it dragging Gale with her.
"Okay we both suck at sparring." Gale said as he stopped laughing as he stayed on top of Vicky.
"Get off me!" Vicky said as she pushed him off her and seat up.
"See why I can't take you to that New York?" Vicky asked Gale and he looked at her for a long moment when suddenly his eyes gotten white.
Gale was getting a vision!
Vision:
Gale was looking himself before a mirror and he was dressed in a tuxedo.
"Are you ready?" A voice asked behind him and turned to see Clary she was dressed in a pastel long gown.
"Yes." Gale heard himself say and turned to smile at Clary who extended her arm to him and he took it as they walked out of the room.
"I'm sorry for all I did to you and your friends in my previous life." Gale heard himself say in guilt.
"It's okay now. You died and got reborn and you corrected your mistakes now enjoy your wedding day!" Clary told him with a warm smile as they walked inside the chapel.
Vision End.
Gale gasped as he fell off the couch and Vicky rushed to help him up but he got transferred into another vision.
Vision:
"You could have found peace and healed from all the torment you went through maybe even found a girl to fall in love with her and maybe start a family down the road. To be honest, I saw all this possibilities in your timeline, it's sad that you choose to allow the past swallow you whole, Jonathan. Good luck in your next life time, if you get one." Vicky's voice echoed through his head as he run into different corridors searching for someone.
"Where is she?" Jace asked in anger and looked at Gale and his eyes showed pity.
"I can't believe Valentine took her! Took the only person you love!" Jace commented in pity as he looked at Gale.
"He will pay for this!" Gale's voice growled and the broke down another door and came to face with Clary's heartbroken face as she held a bloody Vicky in her lap.
"He killed her! I'm sorry, Gale! I was too weak to stop him! I'm so sorry!" Clary cried as blood was all over her and Vicky stood still eyes looking emotionless as they met Gale's.
"No! No! No!" Gale heard himself chant over and over again as he let his sword smash to the ground and rushed to Vicky's side as he hugged her.
"Please don't leave me! Please!" He chanted as he cupped her dead face and kissed her temple and then dead lips like it would bring her back.
"PLEASE! I LOVE YOU! PLEASE COME BACK! I LOVE YOU!" Gale cried out as he held tight Vicky's dead body.
"I love you!" He whispered as more tears run down his eyes as he closed them and held Vicky as he wimped back and forth.
Jace, Izzy, Clary and Alec stood unable to say anything or do looking shocked at Gale.
End of Vision:
"I love you!" Gale whispered/gasped as he regain focus and saw Vicky above him.
"What?" Vicky asked confused and caught off guard as she sat back allowing Gale to seat up.
"I had these buzzard visions. In the first one I was getting married to someone and Clary was there we were walking towards the chapel and the second vision I held your dead body." Gale said still in daze, shock and confusion.
"That is impossible! I saw your future! There is nothing like that in there." Vicky said in confusion and then looked at Gale who was still looked at her like she had just return from the dead.
"Time can be re-written though." Gale tried to reason with her and Vicky looked at him as if he said that the Earth was flat.
"I know that but only on special occasions!" She yelled as she slapped Gale on his head as she walked to the kitchen.
"More special that children of time I haven't met." Gale mumbled to himself as he sat there on the living room floor.
"Besides! I will never fall for anyone…I don't do love and stuff like that…I have many issues to work on before I allow any other person to come close." Vicky yelled from the kitchen in a completely oblivious manner at how much those words seemed to hurt Gale who flinched at the sound of it.
"Life is weird." He said to himself as he teleported away and Vicky sighed as she walked to the living room and saw it empty.
She sat down and continued reading her book like nothing had happened.
Gale walked inside Jack's office in Torchwood base deep in thoughts.
"Jack can I ask you something?" Gale asked sadly at Jack who nodded in confusion.
"How do you see your future? I mean a child of time's future." Gale asked and Jack sighed.
"Why, Gale?" Jack asked protectively.
"Because I saw Vicky Leister's death and I was crying while confessing my love to her. She hates me and i…I don't know I feel attached to her yet I don't even know her! Why?" Gale rambled at loss and Jack chuckled.
"You saw possible future not the future, relax." Jack told him and Gale sighed in relief.
"So she won't die nor will I fall for her?" Gale asked hopeful and Jack laughed.
"Go to sleep, Gale." Jack told him smiling amused.
Gale sighed as he stood up and walked out of the office. On his way home he thought of the vision when suddenly he saw Vicky standing in front of his house. She looked tired and over worn in her arms held a pink blanket.
"Agh! Gale! Thank God! We have met right?" Vicky asked unsure and Gale nodded confused.
"Good, protect her with your life. Her name is Sophia Hope." Vicky told him and as she passed him the baby and then teleported away without any other word.
Gale looked confused and shocked at the baby girl who had same blue eyes as him.
"What should I do with you now?" He asked in a baby voice.
Gale walked inside his apartment and looked the infant in his arms…where should he put her? Then he saw the couch and smirked.
He put the baby done and made sure the infant was circles with pillows so she won't fall down.
Then took his laptop and sat next to her as he started searching anything about Vicky Leister.
Sophia Hope seemed to study the room around her and then her eyes settled on Gale who was reading something just then she started chuckling and having saliva coming out of her mouth as she stare at Gale with happy eyes.
"What? Why are you laughing?" Gale asked amused at the baby and then sighed;
"And now I'm expecting the baby to talk…great!" Gale said sarcastically to anyone but his tone of his voice made Sophia Hope laugh even more.
That made Gale think about what she will need which then made her think of Martha and Mickey and their children.
He took Sophia Hope in his arms and teleported inside Martha's house scaring the Smith family who was having dinner.
Sophia Hope seemed to be put off by the teleportation and started crying.
"What the hell? Gale?" Martha asked shocked as she jumped up and then saw the baby girl.
"Hi everyone, this is Sophia Hope…I suppose older version of Vicky brought her to my doorstep and handed her to me and told me to protect with my life. Only problem; I don't know anything about babies! And she laughs with my voice…can she understand me?" Gale rambled nervously as he held Sophia Hope who was crying and subconsciously he started rocking her as he paced back and forth.
Mickey and Martha watched him amused and their kids were still shocked as they stare at Gale.
"You doing great so far, mate." Mickey said in an amused voice and Martha smiled as she walked closer to him and took the baby away from him and she studied the infant and chuckled.
"You share the same eyes and nose, Gale…are you by any chance related? Maybe a sister you don't know about? A daughter?" Martha asked confused and suspicious as she looked at the little girl who was studying her back.
"Um…I don't know. I noticed that too." Gale said at loss as he sat on the sofa.
"Don't worry I can take you baby shopping." Martha said serious and smiled at Gale who looked up to her and sighed anxiously.
"I have heard that babies are expensive…I'm not rich you know." Gale said serious and Martha smiled.
"I know but being a Child of Time you past selves have bank accounts stoked with money we only have to track them down which it would take seconds! Mickey, your time to shine!" Martha said as she took Sophia Hope to her toddler son's room to change her diaper….she will have to wear a boy's diapers for now.
Mickey walked up to him with his tablet and started typing away as Gale tried to keep up with him and failing doing so.
Twenty seconds later the printer started working and Gale jumped at the sound as he saw Mickey walked up to it and taking the papers that were printed.
"Those are the bank accounts you old selves established…use them wisely, Gale!" Mickey said with a fatherly tone.
"Thanks, Mickey. Can I ask you something?" Gale asked hesitantly after he thanked Mickey.
"Yes?" Mickey asked confused.
"What do you know about Vicky Leister?" Gale asked confused and Mickey sighed as if Vicky's past was the darkest thing he ever encountered.
"Vicky Leister wasn't always a Leister. She is not even of this Earth to be honest but she acts ignorant of her true parents and ever since she showed up in Mystic Hills when she was eight years old and the Leister family adopted her. She doesn't speak of that life the only ones who know about it, is herself and her diaries. She always calls her adoptive parents mum and dad." Mickey said to Gale who looked at him confused.
"Mystic Hills? As in Earth 1?" Gale asked shocked and Mickey nodded.
"She grew up battling vampires, witches and werewolves, she is the best we have. Her experience with the supernatural is amazing! It's like she has a chronogram in her head! Did you know before she joined Torchwood entirely she accidentally traveled to the past of her Earth 0 and became friends with Queen Victoria? She knew of the Doctor because she had traveled with him and knew of Shadowhunters too! She taught us about the existence of them." Mickey said in amazement and Gale looked beyond shocked.
"Earth 0? What is that?" Gale asked confused and Mickey sighed.
"Earth 0 is the Earth that has nothing supernatural and it's plain normal." Mickey explained shortly and Gale nodded at loss.
"I'll be right back!" Gale said overwhelmed as he rushed to the toilet and locked the door behind him as he teleported back to his apartment and searched for back bag once he found it he teleported away again inside Vicky's apartment.
He stared at her sleeping form, she had a frown on which made Gale to pity her but shook himself as he witnessed a drawer with a lock and key on it being half opened. He tiptoed towards it and took a peek inside and saw seven diaries.
He slowly took them and placed them in his bag but before he could leave he turned to see Vicky who seemed to be in deep sleep. Once he made sure she didn't got him in the act he teleported inside his apartment and hid the bag under his bed then teleported back into the Smith's toilet.
He had to have answers about Vicky!
Back in Vicky's apartment Vicky opened her eyes and looked at the room and sniffed the air as her eyes shown yellow/red and she smirked.
Then looked at the drawer and her smirked was wiped out, she thought Gale was in her apartment to prank her not rob her!
Gale stared at himself in the mirror and sighed; was he going to make it?
Suddenly a pounding at the bathroom's door made him jump.
"Gale? Mum said to come downstairs!" Adam Smith yelled from the outside. Adam Smith was the eldest son of Martha and Mickey, he was sixteen years old then there was David Smith who was thirteen and then little Joshua Smith who was two years old.
"Coming!" Gale yelled as he quickly washed his hands and walked out and smiled at Adam and both boys walked downstairs.
"Okay, I put her one of Josh's diapers for now, she had pooped. Then I examined her and she is around three months old. Now, Gale I will need to perform a DNA test between you and her just to solve the mystery of why you share the same eyes and nose. For now we have to go shopping." Martha spoke with motherly/ doctor like authority and then gave Sophia Hope back to Gale. She seemed awfully quietly in Martha's arms but once she was in Gale's arms she smiled at him and closed her eyes.
Hours were passed in shops and shops it was around 12 am when Gale and Martha exhausted pulled before Gale's apartment block and sighed as Gale looked at Sophia Hope in her baby car seat and she had fallen asleep and had a similar frown with Vicky's which made him suspicious.
"See you tomorrow, Gale and take care of little Sophia Hope." Martha whispered at Gale once she helped him with his newly bought baby stuff.
"Thank you Martha! Good night!" Gale whispered back as he closed the door and turn to look his apartment. Just then he heard a shuffling in the kitchen and rushed to see a sixteen year old girl with dark brown hair making a sandwich as she sang the Love Is the Name.
"What do you think are you doing?" Gale whispered yelled angrily at the girl who jumped and turned to him and Gale gaped at the similar blue eyes and in shock he looked between the baby in his arms and the teen and back again.
"Hi, dad!" The teen whispered with a guilty smile and then looked at the baby in his arms and her smile was wiped.
"You don't know yet, do you?" The teen asked in shock and Gale shook his head no unable to speak.
"Alright, then, let me introduce myself; Hi! I'm Sophia Hope Simmons and you are my dad." Teen Sophia Hope said smiling at Gale and he stare at her.
"How? How do I have a daughter? Who is your mum?" Gale asked Sophia Hope and Sophia Hope shrugged.
"I don't know who my mum is because I was told by you that I was given to you by an older version of Vicky Leister. We were fine without my mum and I never really wondered about her. I will have a very big family and I'm glad with that." The Teen Sophia Hope said to her father's younger version and then took a bite of the sandwich.
"Did I raise you on sandwiches and chips since the only thing I know how to make?" Gale asked her with a smile as he rocked baby Sophia Hope in his arms.
"Um…no! You are an excellent cook as far as I can remember. I took that from you actually. I want to be a chef when I'm older." The Teen Sophia Hope said smiling at Gale and Gale relaxed a little bit.
"You should get me to bed, dad." The Teen Sophia Hope said to Gale as she stood up and put her plate to the sink and smiled to Gale.
"Yeah." Gale said still starstruck with the whole ordeal.
When Gale returned he didn't found Sophia Hope's teen version but he did found a piece of paper that wrote;
Letter:
Dear dad,
You will be awesome! Don't worry much!
P.S. Teach me how to sing Love is the Name.
P.S.S. I LOVE YOU DADDY!
Letter ends:
Gale slammed in the kitchen chair in shock and tiredness as he tried to fathom what had just happened to him this day.
Time Skip:
Gale had taken used taking care of Sophia Hope and now he was at the Smith residence leaving Sophia Hope to Mickey and the boys since he had to leave for a mission with Torchwood.
No one besides him and Martha knew about Sophia Hope so far and it was true that she was his daughter not only because the future version confirmed it but because the DNA said so, 99.9% relation.
Mickey was working from home so he could babysit Sophia Hope and little Josh besides Adam would return earlier from school and could give his dad a break as he suggested himself.
So, Gale was in Torchwood's base helping Gwen and Ianto store some paperwork when Vicky walked inside with Tosh and Owen as they were talking about a dream Vicky had.
"And then I woke up and I could smell it…Oh! Hey guys!" Vicky said smiling and then glared at Gale who looked away from her.
Just then Vicky walked up to him.
"You stole my diaries and I want them back!" Vicky whispered angrily at him and then glared at him as Gale gulped as he stare back at him.
She was scary alright.
"I hadn't stolen it alright? I don't even know you! Why would I get your diary?" Gale yelled at Vicky and then turned his back and walked away from her leaving her staring at his retiring form.
Late at night when he returned from Slitheens hunting he held his daughter in his arms as he was reading the first diary.
Diary Entry:
This diary belongs to Vicky Bika.
Page 1
Dear diary,
My parents keep on thinking that I'm able to read their minds and know what they want or what they think they need me to do. How is it possible? I don't know how they think!
Then they want me to take care of the house, my sister and school and when I'm failing they say that I do nothing!
Are they for real?
I sometimes want to leave them.
One thing for sure is that I don't love them, I never will.
End of entry:
Gale sighed in sadness as he read the entry of the diary.
What sort of childhood she had?
As he looked behind the many pages of diary he found an old photo of two girls dressed in huge jackets and winter attire next to them stood a couple and they were all standing before an sculpture and they seemed happy.
But Gale as he touched it he got a vision;
Vision:
Everything was burning! The house was on fire! An eight year old Vicky held her three year old sister by the hand as the run to the isle of the apartment building and kneel before her sister.
"Run as fast as you can and never look back! Our parents are bad people and they will turn you bad if you don't learn what is really bad and what good! I love you, Sheila!" The eight year old Vicky said quickly to the three year old who was crying and had ashes all over her face.
"I lowe you titi!" Sheila said crying as she hugged Vicky tight and Vicky broke down as she forced her sister's hands off her and pushed her towards the door that was leading to freedom.
Vicky's tears graved a path on her ashy cheeks as she turned towards the bedroom door where it was a pounding sound.
"Vicky! VICKY! OPEN THE DAMN DOOR YOU UNGRATEFUL AND EMOTIONLESS BITCH!" A voice of a raging woman was heard and Vicky flinched at the sound of those words.
Gale growled lowly at what her own mother said to her own daughter.
Vicky walked towards the room and unblocked the door and then her parents charged towards her seeming so angry.
"You bitch! Let's get out of here before we die!" The father yelled at her as she dragged her towards to exit.
"No! You deserve to die for everything you did to me!" Vicky yelled with tears in her eyes and suddenly the entire room had more raging fires.
"I WISH YOU TO FEELTHE SAME PAIN I FELT!" Vicky yelled at them but didn't got the time because the fire destroyed any oxygen left why made the parents and Vicky start to cough and start losing conscious.
Vicky then growled in anger as she took her mum's hand and put it over her shoulder and her dad's arm over her other shoulder and tried to drag them outside. She managed to do that and her parents manage to take a deep breath after that they looked at her in shock.
How could she drag them all the way from the 3rd floor to the entrance and from there outside without getting burnt and just in a matter of 3 seconds? Well she teleported them without her knowledge.
"You monster! You are not our daughter you are a monster!" The mother said in disgust and anger at Vicky as she stumbled away from her.
"Get away from us you freak!" Her father said as she stumbled away from her.
Vicky saw the entire town looked at her in disgust, confusion, shock and horror.
Vicky started crying and she walked back to the burning building she was willing to die she didn't want to live anymore!
She walked to the source of fire and opened her arms read to fall in when suddenly instead of getting burned she found herself laying in the doorstep of a house.
The door opened a woman around the age of 25 saw her and exclaimed in shock;
"Oh! My God!" Exclaimed as she was dressed in a Marine Soldier's attire and a man around the same age was standing behind the woman dressed in a doctor's coat, Vicky stood up hesitantly as she looked at them shocked.
"Who are you? Where am i?" Vicky asked confused.
"I'm Anna Leister, sweety." The woman said with a warm smile and soft voice.
"And I'm Doctor Erik Leister. Who are you, little lady?" The man asked kindly and tried to cheer up the eight year old girl before him with a smile.
"I'm Vasiliki Bika….i should be dead." Vicky said confused and worried.
"Well Vasiliki Bika welcome to Mystic Hills!" Doctor Erik Leister said with a kind smile.
End of Vision:
Gale gasped and the baby in his arms sighed too as if she saw the same vision as him.
Which was true Sophia Hope could channel a child of time's because both her parents were Children of Time and because of her young age she doesn't have her own but she can tap into her parents. And that moment she did and saw what Gale saw and didn't like it one bit!
"I'm sorry, little one." Gale whispered guiltily unaware of what Sophia Hope had also witnessed.
Gale then had one thought in his mind;
Vicky.
He put Sophia Hope to bed and got the bag of diaries, he wouldn't need those anymore he learnt what he wanted about Vicky. Then teleported outside of Vicky's apartment and rang the bell.
Vicky opened the door and she sighed.
"What?" She asked tiredly and Gale showed her the diaries.
"I lied. I had them but now I know what I need to. I'm sorry I stole them from you." Gale said quickly before throwing the bag inside the apartment and next thing he did was to lean closer and kissed her passionately but Vicky pushed him away and looked at him breathless and confused.
"Why?" Vicky whispered.
"Don't you remember your past lives?" Gale asked confused and waited for Vicky's answers. And she looked at him confused.
"No." She said and she stumbled back away from him but Gale didn't allow her to do that he walked up to her and kissed her again not allowing her to get away from him.
The reason she felt attached to him and vice versa because every time some way both of them they would meet and help each other.
In one time they would meet on a train and help each other make a decision. Another time she was a nurse and he was a soldier and she healed him. Another she was a patient and he was a doctor. Or they were kids who played together and then became friends and soon lovers.
In the last kiss Gale showed her what he had remembered of them.
Back at Gale's house baby Sophia Hope woke up and looked up to and saw a girl that picked her up.
"Hello, my younger self!" A teen Sophia Hope said to her baby self.
"Time has changed as you might know and I have little time, remember when I say that dad was the best parent and you had no problem raising you. Now you are going to have both of your parents…um yes I lied when I said I didn't know who my mum was. You and I are, Sophia Hope Leister Simmons and you are destined for great things. Stay humble! Goodbye! And don't forget love your parents." Teen Sophia Hope said to her baby self who looked at her in wonder.
Then teen Sophia Hope put baby Sophia Hope to bed and then walked away from herself and sighed;
"Here it goes!" Sophia Hope sighed as she was deleted by the timeline.
Baby Sophia Hope smiled at the ceiling as she felt the changes on the timeline for three months old baby she was able feel time since she was daughter of Children of time slash time travelers.
