Set during "The Hand You're Dealt." Audrey's POV.

Fate With a Capital F

You never used to believe in fate. Even though you were raised Catholic, raised with the teachings that God had a plan for everyone, you have always been a little more pro-free will. You like to believe that people can make their futures, that they can make their own choices, that they can change their fates.

And then you meet Vanessa and all of that is thrown into question. Here is a woman who can see the future, who can look beyond the present and see how people will die. She can see the moment that their lives will end, that they stop existing. If that isn't a strong dose of inevitability, you don't know what is.

You can't help but wonder what that means as far as a person's fate goes. If their deaths are already predetermined, chosen for them long before that moment actually comes, then what's to say that it isn't all elected beforehand? That no matter what you do with your life, it is going to end in a way that's been chosen by someone with more power than you. And if they chose that, what else did they choose for you?

Was growing up in foster care a choice made by the higher powers? Did they lead you to the career you chose, to the path you walk? Is it because of them that you're currently in a little seaside village battling things beyond your comprehension? Is it because of them that you spend your every waking moment questioning your past and wondering who you are and what your purpose here is? Was it fate that led you to the photograph of Lucy Ripley, that stirred your curiosity to a boil over the possibility of answers you've always longed for?

And maybe that is the answer. Maybe all of those things did happen to you for a reason. Maybe you were supposed to join the FBI so Howard could give you that task of chasing down Jonas Lester. Maybe you were supposed to come to Haven, to show up in the one little small town where you stumble across the first physical evidence that you even had a mother. Maybe you were supposed to be here because the people here need you, because you understand them in a way no one else does.

Perhaps it's time to stop questioning everything and just accept the facts. You are supposed to be here, to help these people, to get your answers. This is your Fate.
