Kelsi fidgeted nervously in her seat as the limo she was taking her through the streets of Quantico. In her hands were pieces of paper as she tried to study the names. She was to wrapped up in her studies to notice the limo was pulling into a driveway.
"Miss." The driver said as he looked in his rearview mirror. "We're home."
Kelsi looked up. "Already?" She looked out the window and saw the mansion. "Wow."
The limo parked in the middle of the half circle of the driveway, the driver climbed out and walked over to the back and opened the door for Kelsi. "Home again." He smiled as she climbed out of the limo.
"Thanks." Kelsi smiled at him. She looked up at the mansion. "Let the test begin." She moved to the front door leaving the confused limo driver.
"What?" He shook his head before closing the door and moving to the trunk to get Kelsi's bags.

Kelsi fumbled for Courtney's keys and pulled them out, but before she could use them the door opened.
"Miss Courtney." The maid smiled. "Welcome home." She held the door for the eleven-year-old. "How was camp?"
Kelsi smiled. "It was nice." She looked around the big room. "Where's my Grandmother, and Mom?"
"She's in the ballroom." The maid answered.
Kelsi smiled. "Thanks." She moved to the left.
"Miss Courtney." The maid said confused. "The ballroom is that way." She points in the opposite direction.
Kelsi quickly nodded. "Oh, right." She walked in that direction.

Emily Prentiss, and her mother Elizabeth Prentiss were in the ballroom, designing a gown.
"Mom? Grams?"
Both Emily, and Elizabeth stopped their work and turned around to the voice to see Kelsi.
"Courtney!" Emily smiled as she opened her arms. "Welcome back home honey."
Kelsi flew to her mother fell into her open arms. Nothing Kelsi could have said could describe what it felt like to finally be held in her mother's embrace. Tears came to Kelsi's eyes. "I can't believe it's you."
"It's so good to finally have you back home." Emily smiled running her fingers through her daughter's hair. She looked into Kelsi's eyes. "Are those tears?"
"Darling." Elizabeth kneeled down next to her daughter and looked at her granddaughter. "What's the matter?"
"If only you guys knew." Kelsi cried as she clung to her mother.
