Hope to Live For


Peter waited till she was knocked out before driving to Massive Dynamic...Nina Sharp seemed to be very invested in Olivia's safety. She had asked Broyles and him both how she was since her return because Olivia had not answered her calls.

He later found from Nina that she had assisted in the trails of Cortexiphan, helping with the female children since they needed a female on sight. In her time she had become attached to Olivia, watching her grow and eventually helped her get into the FBI and also Fringe.

The one thing Peter knew was that if Nina found out that their Olivia was still on the other side, she'd fight to get her back and Peter was willing to help her fight.


By the time he got to Massive Dynamic, he found Nina waiting for him outside. He got out of the car and gently pulled Olivia's imposter from the car. "Peter, what is going on?"

"I used a tranq dart...she's not Olivia, the minute she wakes up you'll understand."

Soon the alternate Olivia was in a bed in the medical wing of the building. Nina and Peter watched as the effects of the tranquilizer began to wear off. The woman pulled against her restraints and looked around.

"Who's there...who has me? Peter...Peter Bishop undo these restraints now." She continued to pull on the restraints and didn't stop.

Nina looked at Peter, "it isn't Olivia."

"Excuse me Miss Sharp." They turned to see a medical technician, he handed Nina a file and she read it as the tech left.

Peter eyed the file as well, "no Cortexiphan but traces of Mercury...like the shape shifters use. The fact she has no Cortexiphan in her is a dead give away, Olivia had so much in her that her body naturally made Cortexiphan."

"And her abilities were beginning to surface, she'll need mercury to survive in our world. If we don't give it to her, she'll die."


Peter looked at the woman in the room, "all I want is Olivia, my Olivia so do what you have to. If you have to slowly kill her to find out where she's at, do it...if you use some type of torture method...I know nothing." He looked at Nina, "just find my Olivia because I won't stop till she's with me again. She belongs with me and I belong with her, those were some of our last words."

"Olivia's connected to you, you may not know this but as a child Olivia had an imaginary friend...called Peter. At the time we thought it odd but over the last two years I've seen you with Olivia and I know it wasn't her imaginary friend she was playing with but an inner vision of you."

"How can we be connected, we were miles...states apart. We never came into contact with each other till we met two years ago."

"We've managed to find no connection but we've done a study for the last two decades. We take individuals and we delve into their inner most thoughts, their psyche and found that each person contains a match...not a genetic match but a person who can match them at everything, an opposite. Over the last twenty years we have found a name, a place and eventually a person who matches each subject.

"We believe Olivia as a child, with her abilities sensed you where our test subjects took years and were in their late teens and early twenties. Each person has a different brain pattern, we have both of yours and they match at each wave level...you are basically the same person except you are separate individuals. The fact you have the same brain waves makes it possible to communicate however you'd have to be given Cortexiphan for it to actually work."

"So give me Cortexiphan, I maybe able to communicate with her even though she's on the other side?"

"I said it was possible not defiant."

Peter eyed the woman in the room, "I'm gonna regret this but let's do it...I'm going into the tank."


A/N: Peter into the tank...what will happen?
