I AM SO SORRY THIS TOOK SO LONG! August was a pretty busy month for me, and I just lost track of time. I've started school again and am unsure of when the next update will be, but probably will be next month. I really hope you guys enjoy this chapter, it's getting better for our MockingPrincess couple.

Disclaimer: I do not own Marvel. I do only own Jade, and even she is shared.

The next day, nothing was better, Jade listlessly ate her breakfast. Annette frowned at her cousin.

"Jade..." She began. Jade shook her head, "Don't Annette. Just don't." Annette sighed, she knew this was no good. Annette knew how stubborn her cousin was and she knew there was no point in arguing, so Annette stopped arguing. The family ate in silence with Annette constantly keeping an eye on her cousin. Jade just seemed so sad. Annette hated how sad her cousin seemed. Annette opened her mouth to speak again before closing it, sighing instead. She finished her breakfast and headed off to make a phone call.

Meanwhile, Bobbi was walking out in the cold. She didn't care that it was cold out, though. Instead, Bobbi thought about what she had said, and hated it. Bobbi had never meant it like that, she hadn't even meant to call Jade a d*ke. Bobbi sighed softly.

"Hey Morse!" A voice suddenly called out. Bobbi turned to see Sareena approaching her.

"Oh...Hey Sareena…" Bobbi said quietly. Sareena sighed softly, "Jade texted me." Bobbi froze and swallowed.

"Sareena, listen. I…"

"Come on," Sareena said, cutting her off and heading into a diner. Bobbi sighed and reluctantly followed. Sareena took a seat and ordered two hot cocoas from a young waiter who smiled at Sareena with a look of appreciation.

"Sit," Sareena said, motioning to the other chair.

"Sareena, I really shouldn't…" Bobbi began.

"Sit your a** down," Sareena snapped, cutting Bobbi off. Bobbi obediently sat. Sareena sighed.

"I know what went down between you and Jade," she said. Bobbi froze. Sareena gave her a small smile, "It's okay." Bobbi bit her lip, looking upset.

"Sareena, I...I didn't mean what I said," Bobbi said quietly.

"I know," Sareena said.

"You do?" Sareena nodded, "Listen, I get that you didn't mean to hurt her feelings."

"I just…" Bobbi began before sighing. Sareena gave her a sympathetic smile.

"How'd you meet Jade?" Bobbi asked suddenly. Sareena took a sip of her hot cocoa and smiled.

"You know how her father, Kenshi, is a cop?" Sareena asked. Bobbi nodded, "Yeah. And her mother, Syndel, is a prosecutor, she works with Seth's mom, Arora." Sareena also nodded and took a sip of her cocoa.

"He arrested my father," Sareena said finally. Bobbi looked at her in surprise.

"My father...He wasn't a nice guy," Sareena said softly. Bobbi nodded slowly.

"And Kenshi...he arrested my father." Bobbi nodded again, "And you met Jade through that?" Sareena nodded, "Yeah...She was the only other person to have a Mortal Kombat like life." Bobbi looked surprised and confused at that.

"What...What…" She stammered. Sareena chuckled softly.

"So what happened?" Bobbi asked.

"My friend, Bi-Han, he's a waiter here and he rescued me from my father. Kenshi was the officer who ended up coming to arrest my father."

"And he put your father away?"

"Yeah, he put my father away." Bobbi nodded and the two sipped their cocoa in silence.

"Are you afraid of being with Jade?" Sareena asked suddenly. Bobbi looked down into her drink, causing Sareena to nod to herself.

"Listen, Bobbi, I understand," Sareena said.

"You...do?" Bobbi asked.

"I do."

"But...but...but...but…" Bobbi said. Sareena sighed and fiddled with her drink before finally sighing.

"If you don't want to talk about it, that's okay," Bobbi said quietly.

"It's not that," Sareena said.

"Then what is it?" Bobbi asked. Sareena sighed before beginning her story.

"My dad...he wanted me all to himself..."

"Oh," Bobbi said, shocked and a bit unnerved. Sareena shook her head and took a deep breath before continuing her story.

"My dad, he...he told me to never fall in love. Especially not with someone who has a soulmark."

"But you did," Bobbi said, recalling how happy and...in love Jade and Sareena looked.

"Yeah, I did," Sareena murmured. Bobbi nodded.

"But Jade is like that," Sareena continued, "She's so easy to fall in love with." Bobbi smiled slightly as she thought about her friend.

"She is," She agreed. Sareena smiled, "Jade is just…"

"Incredibly gorgeous and funny?"

"Yeah, that's for sure."

"But my dad...Quanton Chiless...he always tried keeping me to himself, brainwashed me into thinking I couldn't live without him. When Bi-Han found out...he helped me realize that I didn't need my father, and that I could fall in love...and I did...with Jade. And I know she's your soulmate, and I know if you just give her a chance, you won't regret it. I didn't," Sareena said. Bobbi nodded, swallowing. The two finished their drinks.

"Thank you," Bobbi said softly. Sareena smiled and nodded, "Be good to Jade, okay?"

"I will," Bobbi promised. Sareena smiled again and the two went their separate ways. Bobbi slowly walked down the street again, curling against the cold wind. The snow blew in dizzying swirls around her. Bobbi shivered, it was cold as f*ck out. Bobbi shivered again, thinking about how it was no wonder there were few people out. She shook her head and continued down the street. As Bobbi turned the corner, she nearly ran into someone.

"Sorry!" Bobbi cried.

"You should apologize to Jade," a familiar voice snapped. Bobbi looked up to see Kaya and Wanda standing there. There was a brief moment of silence before Kaya punched Bobbi in the face.

"You hurt Jade," Kaya growled, "You called my best friend, your soulmate, a d*yke."

"I…" Bobbi began before stopping and sighing, "You're right, I'm sorry. I f*cked up, majorily." Wanda and Kaya exchanged a quick look.

"Come on," Kaya said, turning suddenly and starting towards her house. Wanda and Bobbi quietly followed behind her. Kaya unlocked her door and ushered the two in before shutting the door, locking it, and starting on some hot cocoa for the group.

Meanwhile, Bobbi was silently being watched by Wanda, she was studying her friend. Bobbi did seem to be remorseful over what had happened, what she had called Jade. Wanda reached over and put a hand on Bobbi's shoulder.

"Bobbi…" Wanda began, trying to find a way to comfort her friend, who looked sad.

"I f*cked up with this," Bobbi whispered. Wanda shook her head, "Bobbi no, you didn't."

"Wanda…" Bobbi sighed. Wanda shook her head again and sighed before beginning to reflect on her own past. Wanda remembered her life in Sokovia, how her father had been non-existent and her mother had died during a bombing raid. Wanda remembered how she only had Pietro with her for so long. Wanda and Pietro were brother and sister, they were twins. For the longest time, they only had each other. Everything had changed, though, when they were 13 and found their father. Peter had taken them in, he had loved them like a father would. Peter had kept his children safe and protected, children he had never even knew about. Wanda knew Peter was a good father to them, even if they didn't mean until she and Pietro were 13, they loved him.

Everything had changed (again) when Wanda had met Clint, she had been smitten with him instantly. Clint had been so amazing and kind and loving to her. Wanda smiled to herself at the memory.

"Wanda?" Bobbi said, snapping Wanda out of her thoughts.

"Yeah?" Wanda said.

"What were you thinking about?" Bobbi asked. Wanda looked at her friend.

"Just...I know how it feels," Wanda said. Bobbi looked confused at the statement.

"Just...the past."

"What about it?"

"I was like you once, not believing in soulmates."

"What?" Bobbi asked, "But you and Clint…" Wanda looked at her.

"I know what it's like," she repeated. Bobbi looked at her.

"I didn't know that," She said quietly. Wanda smiled sadly, "No one, except Pietro, does." Bobbi nodded.

"Just...do one thing for me," Wanda said.

"What is it?" Bobbi asked curiously.

"Give Jade a chance, you won't regret it." Bobbi sighed. On one hand, she was terrified of letting someone in, much less her soulmate. A part of Bobbi really truly wanted to continue to reject Jade. But on the other hand, she couldn't, and Bobbi knew that. She knew she couldn't reject Jade for much longer. Bobbi looked at Wanda and nodded. Wanda smiled and patted Bobbi on the hand.

"Go talk to Jade," She commanded softly. Bobbi nodded and stood up.

"Thank you," Bobbi said softly. Wanda just smiled and nodded before Bobbi left. Kaya walked out of the kitchen a few moments later.

"Bobbi leave?" She asked.

"She did," Wanda confirmed.

"Good," Kaya said with a nod. Wanda nodded her agreement.

Meanwhile, Bobbi headed to Jade's house, knowing what it was that she had to do. Bobbi had to tell Jade the truth about how she felt. Bobbi got to Jade's house and knocked on the door. It was Annette who opened the door.

"What the hell are you doing here?" Annette demanded.

"I…" Bobbi paused. Annette raised an eyebrow at her.

"Please just let me see her," Bobbi said softly. Annette sighed, "Fine."

"Thank you," Bobbi said sincerely. Annette let her in before closing the door behind the blonde.

And that's the end of this chapter. Few things to note:

1.) Sareena's backstory is inspired by the backstory of a Mortal Kombat character of the same name. Sareena's father is inspired by the character Quan Chi while Bi-Han is inspired by the character Bi-Han. Both Sareena and Bi-Han will be featured more in future chapters. (BTW, I kinda picture Bi-Han as Mike Chang Jr. from Glee...especially since his actor has played MK Bi-Han's brother in a Mortal Kombat webseries)

2.) Pietro and Wanda's father, Peter, is pretty much Peter Maximoff from the X-Men movies. Since Pietro and Wanda (in the comics) were Magneto's children at one point and Peter Maximoff in the X-Men movies is that version of Magneto's son (and in his 20s in the 80s) he ends up being Pietro and Wanda's father in most stories Psylockethe2nd and I write.

Sorry for the long wait for an update and the long ending author's note, but please, please, please review.
