Sorry for such the long wait between chapters, I'm in an advanced class at school and it brings shit loads of homework.


Nada let out a breath as Henry opened the door; he took her bag, hanging it over one of his shoulders.

Bright light spread over them and Nada blinked, inside were 4 people, Nada recognised all of them; Dr Will Zimmerman, Kate Freelander, a big hairy Sasquatch and Dr Helen Magnus.

Nada's eyes locked on the latter; the prim and proper woman that ran the world wide Sanctuary Network, her mother.

"Nada" The woman stared back at her.

"Mum?"

Magnus nodded.

Nada surprised herself when she enveloped the woman in a fierce hug; Magnus was oddly surprised as well but squeezed her back as equally tight.

"It's been so long, Nada" Magnus breathed in her ear, "I'm so sorry I didn't know you. Nikola assured me that you were fine with our arrangements. I didn't know he would do this to you, Nada and I am so sorry for that"

Nada nodded, "I understand what you did. Nikola told me that I was born to give him something to do, someone to keep him company"

"I am so deeply sorry for losing him" Magnus whispered, "I hope I can make it up to you" She drew back to look the younger woman in the eyes.

"Well, you can start with a nice glass of wine" Nada teased.

"Good lord" Helen placed her hand between Nada's shoulder blades and led her out the Foyer, "You really are like your father aren't you?"

"Oh definitely" Nada replied.


Very short I know. Next chapter is being written and will be up momentarily.
