Lynn stumbled through the trees and bushes only knowing that she had to get away because if they found her they would hurt her again. She tripped over a tree root and fell onto her knees but she caught herself with her hands before she landed on her face. She shook her head lightly hoping it would clear out the cobwebs, but it only seemed to increase her pain. She didn't make a sound as she waited for the pain to decrease slightly. She got up a few minutes later knowing that if she didn't get up she wouldn't be able to and they would find her and hurt her for reasons she didn't know. After what seemed like hours she stumbled into a clearing where she saw a male and a female sitting on a blanket talking to one another with smiles on their faces...this is until they saw her standing there in a daze confused as to where she was.

Monroe and Rosalie had decided that they would take the afternoon off and go on a picnic for a much needed break. They had finished eating and had cleaned up everything and where just talking about how to help their friend from getting too depressed over his recent loss.

Monroe had stopped talking and was staring at something with his mouth hanging open that was behind her and she froze remembering the last time that they were on a picnic and something had appeared behind them.

Rosalie turned around slowly to see what her husband was looking at and when she saw the battered, beaten, and bloody young woman who she couldn't believe was standing a few hundred feet away from them she gasped and stood up and ran over to her calling out to her husband, "Call Nick!"

Lynn fell to her knees once she saw the woman running towards her with concern written on her face and in her eyes thinking to herself, 'She won't hurt me...' then she let the darkness that had been trying to take over her mind for a long time finally took over.

"Nick, we need you to meet us at the hospital...as soon as possible!" Monroe shouted into the phone.

"What happened?" Nick asked.

"A girl has been hurt..." Monroe said as he watched his wife catch the young woman then lay her gently on the ground as she inspected her for the injuries.

"Have you called for an ambulance?" Nick asked.

"Rosalie told me to call you first...she's looking over the girl now," Monroe paused when he saw Rosalie begin to turn the girl over and gasped when she saw part of a tattoo and quiet took off the sweater that was covering the rest of the shoulder then she looked at Monroe and held her hand out for the phone, then he said, "She wants to talk to you."

"Nick, she cannot go to a hospital...whoever did this to her will find her there...the only place she will be safe is with you or with us," Rosalie said once she took the phone from her husband.

"Can you move her with hurting her more?" Nick asked.

"Yes, we are going to take her to the shop there are things there that will help her...met us there and I will explain what I can," Rosalie said then disconnected the call.

Rosalie carefully put the ripped sweater back over the shoulder and then looked at her husband then said, "Please be careful with her...she's in a lot of pain."

"Why can't we take her to the hospital?" Monroe asked as he gently picked her up princess style.

"She belongs to the Irish warrior clan of Maeve...her tattoo clearly shows that...but there is an extra marking and I'm not sure what it means..." she said as they put her into the back of their car.

"How did you recognize the tattoo?" he asked they both got into the car.

"When I was wondering around I met one...she saved my life from a Grimm...when I asked her why she told me that I was that I was not destined to die at the hands of a Grimm, and that one day I would be protected by a least one Grimm and that together we would save one of her sisters from a fate worse than death," Rosalie answered.

"And you remembered that?" Monroe asked as they pulled onto the freeway.

"Yes…it's not everyday something like that happens to a person…being told that you are going to be protected by a Grimm and saving the life of someone who had just saved your life…it would tend to stick with you as well," Rosalie said as she turned to look at the young woman laying the backseat of the car.

"Well so far you being protected by a Grimm has come true maybe this is the sister she talked about you saving," Monroe said.

"It's highly possible…" Rosalie said as she turned her gaze back to her husband.

Monroe pulled the car around to the back so they could get her into the shop without anyone noticing and calling the police. As soon as Monroe placed her gently onto the bed that was in the back room Nick knocked on the front door and Rosalie went to let him in.

"So what is goin-" Nick started but stopped when he saw the young woman on the bed then he ran over to the side of the bed and asked, "What happened to her? Where did you find her?"

"You know who she is?" Monroe asked from the other side of the bed as Rosalie disappeared into the basement to get the first aid kit along with everything else she might need to fix up the young woman's injuries.

"I've been looking for her…sense the first time my mother came to visit," Nick said as he sat down on the chair next to her bed and picked up her hand.

"You've never said anything…"Monroe said.

"No, I didn't tell anyone…I honestly didn't think that they was telling me the truth…" Nick said softly not looking from her bloody face.

"Who is she?" Monroe asked curiously.

"She is my sister," Nick said as he briefly glanced at him.

"SISTER?!" Monroe choked out.

"Half-sister…really, my mom didn't go into details about the relationship and I didn't ask…I started looking for her in case she was a Grimm…and well because she was family," Nick said as Rosalie came back into the small room.

"What happened?" Rosalie asked as she took in the expressions on the two men then looked at the young woman.

"Nothing happened to her…Nick knows who she is," Monroe said.

"Oh, so who is she?" Rosalie asked.

"Her name is Lynn Burckhardt O Hicidhe," Nick said softly.

"Burckhardt?" Rosalie asked.

"She's my half-sister…my mom told me about her the first time she was here before she accidently killed Adeline's mother," Nick said.

"We could've helped you…why didn't you say something?" she asked.

"Honestly, until I found a picture of her a few weeks ago I didn't think she was alive," he answered as he watched her.

"Where am I?" a soft female voice said.

"You're safe that is all that matters," Nick said as her eyes opened and met his gaze.

"What happened…how did I get away from them?" she asked her gaze moving from one person to another person.

"Away from who?" Nick asked.

"I don't know who they were…they changed…they had scythes…kept calling me a Grimm…" she said softly.

"Reapers," Monroe mouthed.

"Do you remember how you wound up with them?" Nick asked.

"…Not really…" she said as she closed her eyes then fell back asleep.

"She was betrayed by those in our clan that believe because of what she is…that she does not belong," a female voice said from behind them.

"How would you know?" Nick asked as stood up from the chair and stood in front of Lynn to protect her.

"Be at ease young Grimm I have not come to take her from you…she is no longer safe within our clan. I have only come to bring news of her death," the woman said as came into the room.

"You!" Rosalie said.

"I am honored that you remember me," the woman said with a small smile.

"Rosalie, you know her?" Nick asked.

"Yes, she saved my life once," Rosalie said.

"You're not here to take her with you?" Nick asked still with his hand on his gun.

"No, young Grimm…the other elders think that she is our savior because of her bloodline and if they believe her to be alive they will do anything in their power to bring her back," she said.

"What do you think?" Monroe asked carefully.

"That she belongs with those that will not betray her, who will keep her safe," the woman said as she pulled out a bag and set it on the table.

"What is that?" Nick asked as he looked at the bag.

"New cloths for her as well as medicine that will heal her wounds faster…I require the clothing that she is wearing for proof of her death," she said still standing at a safe distance from them.

"They would take your word and her bloody cloths as proof?" Nick asked.

"They know how close I am to her, they knew I was full of sorrow when she went missing three weeks ago, and they know who sold her to…what you would refer to as reapers…they have been dealt with," the woman replied.

"If they have been dealt with why is she not safe there?" Nick asked curiously.

"They merely took orders from the one who wishes her the most harm…my time runs short," the woman said as she looked behind her.

"Nick, Monroe please go into the main shop I will call you once I have finished cleaning her wounds and changing her," Rosalie said as Monroe dragged Nick out of the room.

"Will she know who you are if we tell her about you?" Rosalie asked.

"She will know...she always knows...once her injuries heal she will remember everything and be in a very dangerous place, you must not leave her alone even for a moment, but only you and the Grimm will be help her heal," the woman paused as she pulled out a letter then said, "And give her this letter when you think that she needs it."

"They will be able to heal each other," Rosalie said.

"Yes," the woman said softly as she moved to the side of the bed and grabbed the bloodied clothes once they were removed and placed them into another bag.

"Will she ever have to go back?" Rosalie asked.

"No, she is to stay here with her brother…" the woman said with teary eyes.

"Is there anything that I need to know about her?" Rosalie asked.

"She will need training for her Grimm abilities, she only has training in self-defense and it was not really enough for what she needs they kept her training towards healing and kept her from fighting…and her father was a very powerful druid she has his powers while she has those mostly under control with the activation of her Grimm abilities they have been…not steady and until she is able to control both as one she is a danger to those she does not trust," the woman paused as she watched Rosalie begin to clean a deep wound on her stomach she then walked over to the bench and picked up the bottle walked back over and handed the bottle to Rosalie then said, "Give her this once I leave it will heal her wounds completely…I must say one more thing…the bastard royal must never find out who her father is…ever."

"I promise never to tell the royal…but I can't promise I won't tell Nick," Rosalie said.

"Oh, the young Grimm will need to know what he is in for," the woman said with a small smile.

"How will this heal her instantly?" Rosalie asked as she looked at the bottle closely.

"It is the last of a potion that Lynn made. She is very good at making it as long as she has the ingredients and luckily you have all of them so if the need arises which unfortunately it will so I advise that you let her make some before the young Grimm takes her away for training," the woman said.

"When we have worked out everything she can make some…or when we are talking about everything," Rosalie said but when she didn't get answer she turned and saw that the woman had left. Rosalie then uncorked the bottled and poured the potion into her mouth then stroked her throat to have her shallow the potion. Once the potion was swallowed her wounds began to heal rapidly until they were completely healed. Rosalie gasped loudly at the sight of the healing wounds.
