Author's Note: Here's my newest story! Just one of the multiple ways season 6 could go, but I'm doing it my way! (Main plot idea goes to GencoOliveOil)
All Over Again: Prologue
=FLASHBACK=
"Don't you leave me!" he yelled again, and once more felt her slipping and tried to hold on tighter. "You hold on!!" he screamed out.
"I love you!" she cried out, her eyes filling with tears once again.
"No! You don't let go!"
"I love you, James!!"
"No!"
"I love you so much!"
"No don't let--go!!" he yelled out, hearing her scream, feeling her hand slip, feeling her gone. "NO!" he yelled out, the last thing he saw was her tear-filled blue eyes. "JULIET!"
Those damned blue eyes.. it was all he could think as he was pulled away from her final resting place. It was all he could think as the blinding flash of light came over them. Those bleary-eyed pools of ice that had melted over the years, that had melted the void in his heart and filled it, only to leave it empty again.

When Sawyer opened his eyes, the last thing remembered was a flash of light. Now he could hear people screaming all around him and he looked around. He swore, something didn't seem right. A plane, he'd been on a plane hadn't he? His head was spinning in circles, this didn't make sense. Blue eyes. Why was he thinking about blue eyes?
He shook his head and watched all the people running frantic around him, screaming, crying. The plane was on the beach, things were on fire, what the hell was going on?
Cons, women, LAX, blue eyes, bombs, bombs? Why was he thinking about bombs?
Perhaps because the plane had crashed. It made him think of a bomb. That would explain it. But nothing explained the blue eyes. He shook his head. He was going to chalk all of this up to either a really weird dream, or some serious post-traumatic stress.
Sawyer simply groaned, leaning back into the sand of the beach and covering his face with his hands. Nothing was making sense. He didn't bother to get up, to help all those frantic people running wild on the beach. He was too busy trying to sort things out in his head. Something just wasn't right, and those blue eyes were haunting him.
~*~*~*~
Blue eyes opened, and Juliet Burke found herself staring into a mirror, straight into her own icey eyes. She listened, as the CD she'd placed in the disc player started up and she tilted her head side to side slowly with the beat. Her entire body was aching, she was feeling dizzy. Something just wasn't right.
"When you're alone and life is making you lonely, you can always go, down-town.."
Juliet gripped the stand below the mirror hard as she felt the tears well up in her eyes. She sucked in a deep breath, held it for a moment and let it out, letting the rest of the words of the song simply mellow her out as she always did. It had been the strangest thing, that dream she'd had. And it had seemed so realistic when she'd died.
Self-consciously she lifted up her shirt and glanced down at her stomach. Was she hallucinating? She was seeing ghastly bruising in the shape of chain links all around her waist. She dropped her shirt back down and quickly ran her fingers through her hair. She knew this island was strange, but for her dream bruising to actually show up? She was positive that was beyond the brink of normality, even for this place.
She frowned, lifting her shirt once more to look, and found nothing. "What the.."
She shook her head. The dream was such a blur. She couldn't remember so much of it. The faces of the people helping her, she had never seen them. She had no idea who they were, who she was telling she loved. What was the person's name she'd been shouting to? She sighed, going towards the bedroom. It was just a dream.. an extremely vivid dream. and she had no time to keep thinking about it. Everyone was coming to her house today, and she had to get ready for them.
~*~*~*~
Juliet flinched slightly as Amelia put some burn cream on her hand. Originally she was going to show her Ben's X-Rays, but for some reason she got the strange sense it wouldn't matter if she tried. She knew she wouldn't get the chance.
She sighed. It was all because of that stupid dream, and she couldn't deny it. It was leaving her completely and utterly distracted. Not to mention Ben's X-Rays. She'd had a fight with him over it, and she'd pushed further then she ever had before. And now that everything was more screwed up then usual, she had to start having screwed up dreams of her own death.
"Are you sure you're alright?" Amelia questioned as she put the cap back on the cream. "You don't seem your usual self.."
Juliet glanced up into the older woman's eyes and smiled at her a little. "I'm just tired," she lied. "Didn't sleep well last night."
Amelia allowed her gaze to worry a little more. "Have you.."
"If you ask if I've talked to Harper about this.. I swear.."
Amelia smiled.
Juliet chuckled a little at her own reaction. "You did that on purpose," she noted to the older woman.
"Sometimes it feels better to talk about someone you don't like," Amelia teased.
Juliet laughed now.
~*~*~*~
They were in the middle of their usual book club. Amelia had been mildly amused as Juliet took her frustrations out on the members of the book club, and Juliet noticed it. But at least it was making her feel a bit better. And it wasn't until all the shaking that the worry came back to her mind, as she ushered people into doorways.
When it stopped, they had all rushed from her house, along with everyone else in their little community. She looked up, watching as Goodwin came from his and Harper's house. Why did she get the strange sense of dread that she was never going to see him again?
She shook it off, as she glanced up with everyone else, watching a plane fly over them. She watched, with a sort of startled de-ja-vu as the plane split apart, falling onto different areas of the island. And she watched, barely listening to Ben's orders as he sent Goodwin off, and then Ethan. And after locking knowing eyes with Harper, she met Ben's gaze as he came over to her and eyed the book cradled in her arms.
"So.." Ben said. "Guess I'm out of the book club.."
This was just the teaser! Heartland has only a few chapters left, then this is the next story! So just wait, in a few days, this story will be on, full-fledged. (But I may randomly update it again anyways while doing Heartland as well!)
