A/N: I don't know where this came from, an idea popped into my head, and those who have read my other work know that an idea popping into my head isn't a good idea. Valkubus free zone, other than a friendship. It's not really AU because they are all still Fae, it just has nothing much to do with the actual storylines of the show, couple of OC's introduced. Let me know what you all think. I have about half of this written already, if you guys want more I'll post another part tonight. Read, review and enjoy!

Chapter One

Tamsin and Acacia were sitting on the bed of Tamsin's truck outside the Clubhouse. They needed a plan. The cities of the Fae had begun to fall to Dark rule, Light Fae were being arrested and imprisoned. The little army that the Succubus and Blood King had called together wouldn't be enough to hold the city for long, even though the Dark Fae were currently working with the Light to keep the city safe, Acacia and Tamsin knew it wouldn't last. The Morrigan would be overthrown and a new Morrigan would be put in her place, someone who would be more willing to follow orders.

"We need her Tamsin," Acacia said to the blonde, "we can't win this without her, and you know that."

"I can't ask that of her," Tamsin replied, "I can't put her in that position."

"She told you, if you ever needed her help then she would be there," Acacia said, knowing it was going to be difficult to get Tamsin to agree to this, "Now would probably be a good time to call that in."

"She left this life behind Acacia, she walked away for a reason," Tamsin said with a sigh, "I can't be the reason she comes back to it. I won't do that to her."

"So you're going to let us all die, which we will eventually, we can't hold them off forever Tams," the older Valkyrie said, "you will let us all die because you won't ask for her help."

"I won't," Tamsin said standing up, "there has to be another way."

"There isn't." Acacia said.

"There has to be," Tamsin replied, turning her back on her mentor and making her way to the road, "there has to be."

Bo and Kenzi stood in the doorway of the Clubhouse and watched as Tamsin walked away.

"I wonder who they were talking about," Bo said, "I mean Acacia said all Tamsin had to do was ask her for help. Ask who for help Kenz?"

"No fae-ing idea," Kenzi replied, "obviously someone pretty important to Tamsin."

"Tamsin knows an extremely powerful Fae," Trick said walking up behind them, "someone who felt she didn't fit into this world anymore."

"So, what, she kill herself or something?" Kenzi asked.

"No," Acacia replied, walking over from the truck, "she walked away. Turned her back on all things Fae. Choosing to live in a very small town in the US. She owns a bar."

"And what is she to Tamsin?" Bo asked.

"The love of her many lifetimes." Acacia said.

"I still don't understand why she won't ask her to help, if you're so sure she's what we need." Bo said, looking between Trick and Acacia.

"Amelia can be a little… unpredictable," Trick said, "she's done many things that a lot of people wouldn't agree with all because she was paid to do it. She was used as an assassin Bo. Hired out. All she did for nearly 100 years was go around the world taking care of… problems."

"Eventually she figured that no good could come of her powers," Acacia said, "so she left. Walked away from everything and everyone she loved just so she wouldn't cause more suffering… Before she left she decided she was going to teach a few very high ranking Fae officials a lesson or two. She's wanted. Tried in her absence and found guilty of 5 counts of torture and murder committed against the Fae. As she was walking away from the Fae lifestyle the Elders decided to let her go, hoping one day she would be of use to them. They didn't kill her because they wanted to keep her alive. She was told if she ever set foot in a Fae city, with the intention of spending any longer than a week in that city, then she would be put to death."

"That's why Tamsin won't ask her for her help…" Kenzi said, "She knows that she'll say yes, and she knows she'll end up dead. Makes sense."

x-x-x

Tamsin arrived back at the Clubhouse to find that Dyson, Hale and Luke were back, they had been out in the city. They also appeared to have faced a little trouble. Lauren was suturing the cuts to Dyson's head, after finishing work on both Hale and Luke.

"Make the call Tamsin…" Acacia said.

"I can't…" Tamsin replied, walking past them all and going upstairs.

Kenzi made sure Hale was okay before following the Valkyrie upstairs. She found her sitting on her bed, knees pulled up to her chest, with her head rested on her knees.

"I know what you're here to say Kenz," Tamsin said, without looking up, "please don't…"

"You don't know what I'm here to say at all," Kenzi replied, sitting next to Tamsin, "it's a tough thing to deal with, watching this city going to shit every day when you know there's someone out there who can help us…"

"Kenzi…" Tamsin started to say.

"I'm not finished," Kenzi continued, "sure she can help us, probably save our asses and the city. But at what cost…"

Tamsin looked up from her knees and looked at Kenzi.

"Acacia told us," the little human said with a smile, "if she came here and then left before the week was up…"

"She wouldn't leave until it was finished…" Tamsin said, "I call her and tell her I'm in trouble and she'll be here tomorrow… but how can I do that knowing that this thing isn't going to be over in a week, how the hell can I ask her here knowing that she'll end up dead because of me…"

"You don't know she'll end up dead," Kenzi said, "she could come here, we'd kick ass, and then she'd be okay."

"War doesn't work that way." Tamsin said, standing up from the bed and heading to the bathroom.

When the Valkyrie returned from the bathroom the human was nowhere to be seen, but the Succubus was.

"If you're here to tell me what I need to do, don't." Tamsin said to Bo as she sat back on the bed.

"Why would I tell you what you need to do Tamsin," Bo said smiling softly, "you already know what you need to do. She can change the outcome of this, she could help us."

"She could also get killed and who's the one who will have to live with that, live knowing that it's their fault," Tamsin said, "me, I would."

"She might not end up getting killed T…" Bo said.

"No, I know," Tamsin replied, "but it would still mean dragging her back into this world Bo. She walked away from the Fae for a reason… She's dangerous Bo."

"Yet you're in love with her." Bo said, a knowing look on her face.

"Can't help who you fall for right…" Tamsin said with a little laugh, "as dangerous as she is, she's also this amazing free spirit…"

"How did you meet her?" Bo asked.

"It was about 100 years ago in London," Tamsin said, "we were both there working the same job, I was hired to find a guy, she was hired to kill him. A job that should have taken a few days ended up taking a few weeks…"

"So you got pretty close." Bo said.

"You could say that…" Tamsin replied, "Look I know what the right thing to do here is, well the right thing for everyone else… I just…"

"I get it," Bo said with a sigh, "you want to see if we can do this without her before having to call…"

"We can't do it without her," Tamsin replied, "it's only a question of time before they take out Evony and replace her with someone else. Then the entire structure of Dark Fae in this city will change. All the Fae in important positions will be replaced, then the people under them, and those under them, until this city runs the way they want it to, until the Dark take over. The only way we stand any chance of stopping them is by Amelia being here, I know that… it's just a call I promised myself I would never make…"

x-x-x

Amelia was standing outside the back of her bar having a cigarette, a nasty habit she picked up around the time she bought the bar. Part of her liked it here, it was quiet, peaceful with little to no trouble. That's why the other part of her didn't like it so much, she missed the tempo of a city, she missed being around her own kind of people. She had done a lot of travelling before she settled on this place. She'd sent word to the people that needed to know, letting them know that she would be staying in one place for a while. Then she bought the bar.

While she was thinking about the past the door opened and Megan, one of the girls who worked at the bar, and one of the very few people in the town who knew what Amelia actually was, walked out.

"You have a call," Megan said, "it's from Toronto."

Amelia nodded, and finished her cigarette. She knew one day this call would come, without even finding out who was calling she knew, she just didn't expect it to come just yet.

"Tell them I'll be there tomorrow…" Amelia said, putting her cigarette out and heading to her car.

"You don't even want to know whose calling?" Megan asked

"I don't need to," Amelia replied, "I'm going to need you to take over here for a while, I don't know how long I'll be gone, but it would be nice to know the place is in safe hands…"

"You are coming back right?" Megan asked, a worried look now clearly visible on her face.

"I'm certainly going to try…" Amelia said honestly, "Just tell them I'll be there tomorrow…"

Megan nodded a little and watched as Amelia drove away.

x-x-x

"She'll be here tomorrow…" Tamsin said as she walked back into the Clubhouse.

Everyone looked up at her, relief written on all their faces.

"You did the right thing Tams…" Acacia said, walking over to the blonde Valkyrie.

"Tell me that again in a week." Tamsin replied coldly before grabbing her jacket and leaving.

"We have a week," Luke said while grabbing a drink from the kitchen, "that is all the time we have to change the tide of this battle. If, after a week we haven't done what we need to do, Amelia is out of here and we're on our own…"

He turned back to face everyone.

"That is something we all have to agree on." He said, "This is going to be hard enough for Tamsin as it is without the Elders killing Amelia. I'm going to get an early night, something tells me that tomorrow is going to be a long day."

With that he walked upstairs, while everyone was saying how he was right about them only having a week, Dyson followed him upstairs.

"How you doing kid?" Dyson asked, sitting on the edge of Luke's bed as the younger wolf started cleaning his weapons.

"Healing pretty well." Luke replied.

"That isn't what I meant, and you know it," Dyson said, "I know you and Tamsin have been getting close…"

Luke shook his head a little.

"She needs this Dyson," Luke said, "She needs Amelia…"

"You know that with Amelia here, nothing can happen between you and Tamsin," Dyson said, "you know that it puts an end to whatever was happening."

"We slept together a couple of times," Luke said with a shrug, "she was drunk, I was… accommodating."

"Accommodating?" Dyson asked.

"It was just sex Dyson," Luke replied, "nothing more. If Tamsin and Amelia get back together, then I'll be more than fine with that. I'm good at reading people's feelings Dyson, I know that without Amelia… Tamsin will never be whole, she'll never be complete. She's talked about her to me before, told me about their adventures… She's Tamsin's other half. As a wolf I have to understand that…"

x-x-x

Tamsin was sitting in the kitchen as Dyson went downstairs to get a bottle of water.

"There you are," he said with a smile, "we were starting to get worried."

"No need." Tamsin replied.

"Listen, Tamsin." He started to say.

"If this is about Luke," she said looking at him, "don't. He knew what this was Dyson, he knew it could never be serious, he knew that I'd never…"

"Feel for him the same way you do about Amelia?" Dyson asked.

"Let me ask you something wolf," Tamsin said, "when you gave your love to Bo… could you see yourself being with anyone other than her?"

"No," Dyson replied, "I'd never felt anything near what I felt for Bo…"

"That's how I feel about Amelia," Tamsin said, "I know that I've slept with other people, I'd be surprised if she hasn't... but that's not the point, the point is…"

"You love her." Dyson said, knowingly.
