Flesh and Blood

"Lucas no, don't do it. You can't do it", I could see the ground approaching me quicker that I wanted it to be. Lucas pushed me to the ground and I hit my head on a rock really hard but it didn't knock me out.

"What did I tell you not to medal with things that don't concern you", Lucas yelled walking in the opposite direction to where I was still lying on the ground holding my hand up to my face trying to stop the bleeding.

"Lucas please you can't do this", I tried to explain again but before I could realise what just happened, Lucas had ran towards me lifted me off the ground and pinned me to a nearby tree.

"Issy, I will not forgive our father", Lucas yelled. "He will have to choose between his own flesh and blood and his precious Terra Nova".

My eye's flew right open. I could feel someone's hand stroking my hair. I looked up at a familiar face smiling back at me. It was Alicia Washington, my father's lieutenant.

"You're ok", She assured me continuing to stroke my hair. I looked at her with an unsure look on my face. "You had a nightmare you were screaming but everything's alright now it was just a dream".

I didn't say anything or do anything. I could remember the dream as clear as day. Every second of the dream I could remember and I wished I couldn't remember it.

I lifted myself up into a sitting position with my legs dangling over the edge of the bed.

Alicia helped me to my feet and grabbed my dressing gown for me to wear. As I pulled on my dressing gown, Alicia left the room and I followed.

"How is she?", I heard a voice say as I walked out of the door.

"Fine", Alicia replied giving the person a kiss on the lips. It was my father. He was standing behind the counter cooking breakfast and making coffee.

I walked over to the table and sat down. Father walked over with a plate and placed it in front of me.

"Your Favourite", Father said placing a kiss on top of my head.

"Thanks, Papa", I replied as I picked up the knife and fork and dug into my breakfast.

Father walked back over to the counter and grabbed Alicia by the waist and pulled her towards him. He started nibbling on her neck which made Alicia moan.

Father and Alicia had now been together now for just under a year. It took Father a long time to found someone else after what happened to my mother.

"Nathanial, stop...", Alicia whispered to my father trying to push him away from her.

"Wash...", Father said wrapping his leg around Wash's leg.

"Don't mind me", I said standing up from the table.

"Sorry, Sweetie", Wash apologised walking towards the front door.

I went into my bedroom grabbed my jacket and meet Wash at the front door.

"Your not going to get dressed?", Wash asked. I shook my head. Wash didn't say anything more after that cause she knew what today was. Today was her brother's birthday and she knew that her father forgot totally about it.

Just as Wash was about to open the door there was a knock on the door. Wash opened up the door and say Skye on the other side.

"Skye...", Wash said, as I walked outside the door. Father was still behind the counter watching as her drank his coffee. He didn't say anything he knew that I was upset with him but he didn't know why.

Wash didn't say anything either she just walked back inside and closed the door.

"You ok?", Skye asked has we walked towards her house.

"Fine", I replied dropping my head.

"You are not fine, Is", Skye said stopping in front of me. "What's wrong?".

"I had the same nightmare again", I replied starting to cry. Skye didn't say anything, she just looked at me. "It won't go away. I have been having the same nightmare every night now for the past fortnight".

I fell into Skye's arms crying. She cuddled me back.

"Maybe we should go to the infirmary and see what they can do", Skye asked. "Does your Father know?". I shrugged my shoulders.

"I don't really know", I replied. "He knows that I have been having nightmares. Unless Alicia told him about the nightmares because I told her what they were about".

"Do you want to go to the infirmary?", Skye asked again .

"No let's wait until the next pilgrimage arrives", I explained.

"Why?", Skye asked.

"I heard Papa over talking and he said that there was a brilliant doctor coming through who is very good in her field".

"Everything ok?", Taylor said as Wash closed the door.

"It's nothing", Wash replied picking up her cup of coffee. Taylor walked over to Wash, grabbed her by the waist and pulled her closer to him.

"If it is really nothing then why is she so quiet and upset", Her Father asked in a calm voice to occupied on Wash then on what he was saying.

He began to pull down Wash's top and fiddling around with her bra.

"What are you doing?", Wash said beginning to moan as Nathaniel began to suck on her breast tissue.

He placed his finger on top of her lip and said, "Shhh...".

He ran and pinned Alicia to the closest wall he could find and started to kiss her passionately. His tongue slipped into her mouth and coated the back of her mouth.

He ran his fingers up her top and took off her t shirt.

"Do you want this?", Taylor asked as he began to suck on her neck again. He didn't need an answer from her cause the moaning coming out of her mouth meant yes.

He lifted her up off the ground, carried her into the bedroom and lied her down on the bed. She could feel his erection against her crouch as he started to crawl up her body. Her core began to ache as his penis reached that point.

"I need to talk to you about Isobel", Alicia said in a worry voice stopping him from taking her bra off.

"Whats wrong?", he said in a serious voice as he sat on top of Wash's legs.

"Is, the nightmares she has been having are of her brother". Taylor got off the bed and was standing next to her.

"What about Lucas?", Taylor said now in a very stern voice.

"That doesn't matter but it is his birthday today".

"I forgot", Taylor said now with his face to the ground.

"Nathaniel", Alicia said standing up next to him. "Issy, is depressed".

"No she can't be ", Taylor said steeping backwards from Wash. She nodded her head.

"I have to go and pick up the next pilgrimage. I'll see you when I get back". Wash leaned in kissed Taylor on the cheek, picked up her top and left the room.

Taylor sat down on the bed and placed his face into his cupped hands.
