"Nothing there's nothing here!" Trick roared his anger into the universe throwing his book across the room.

"Whoa there Trickster what's with the flying book spree?"

"I can't find the answer Kenzi" Tricks desperation leaking into his voice

"It's happening all over again and once more I cannot protect my family. The prophecy will come true and I will be sitting by helpless as the fae crumble around me"

"Who said anything about crumbling?"

"It was destined that she would come to overtake the light and dark, gaining power through gold, until darkness fell. While the King stands by chained in the dark as shadows overtake the world."

"Chains, that's creepy in a not fun way"

"It's a metaphor Kenzi, translated it simply means I will be unable to prevent it"

"Come on Trick do you honestly think that Bo would try to overtake the fae. I think you should have more faith in your granddaughter. I mean have these prophecies ever not come true?"

"No but often they are misinterpreted and come about in ways that were unforeseeable"

"Then why are you so convinced that my girl Bo is gonna go all evil?"

"I was unable to prevent my daughter from falling into the darkness how can I possibly guard Bo from the shadows" Kenzi remained silent for a few minutes mulling her thoughts and getting them in order.

"Bo's got us to keep her safe. She's got me, you, his Ashliness, Dyson, and Hot Pants. Were her family and we can get her though all of this together. She has all this support Trick with us around she won't fall, we won't let her."

"I hope you're right"

"I'm Kenzi I'm always right. Now let's go back out there before those two defile the very bar I drink from!"

"Lead the way" Trick found himself believing the tiny human who had weaseled her way into the fae world. Kenzi has more sense than all of us Trick muttered following her back towards the bar.

….

"Lauren" Bo moaned her mouth sealed to the doctor. Bo had Lauren pressed up against the wall as their tongues battled. Bo couldn't describe the feelings that were coursing through her at this moment. It was like being this close to the doctor brought out this sense of belonging, something Bo had been searching for her entire life.

"Promise me you're not going to get yourself killed" Lauren demanded as Bo trailed kisses down her neck.

"Why would that upset you doctor?"

"Don't joke Bo if something happened to you…" Lauren couldn't imagine her life without the succubus in it.

"Hey Lauren look at me, look at me please. I promise I'm not going to let anyone take me away from you okay?"

"Promise?" Lauren couldn't suppress the slight tremble of her voice as she asked Bo that. She knew that it sounded a little pathetic but well it was Bo and when it came to Bo Lauren wasn't very good at controlling her emotions.

"I promise" Bo vowed touching her forehead against Laurens as they stood there resting both panting to try and catch their breathe.

"Bo what about Skye and the Elders? What about my girlfriend? What about Dyson? There's so much to talk about and were standing here making out?"

"In fairness to us, we are very good kissers" Bo stated peppering kisses all over Laurens face

"BO!"

"Sorry. Lauren I don't know what to tell you. The Elders can send all the teams they want but trust me with Trick's help we will figure something out."

"And Dyson?" Lauren forced herself to ask the question even though Bo's answer would possibly break her heart all over again.

"He's history Lauren we broke up the night I ran into you and Skye at the bar."

"So what you saw us at the bar and got jealous and broke up with him. Is that supposed to make me feel better Bo?" Lauren pushed at the succubus wanting to create some space between them so she could regain control of her thoughts.

"It wasn't like that"

"Really cause it sounds like you saw someone else take an interest in me and decided to win me back. I don't know Bo. I just thought that when you came back after being gone so long that maybe you broke up because you missed me not because you were jealous. Bo you were the one who picked someone else over me!"

"I was scared okay! Dyson would look at me with those puppy dog eyes full of love and hope I just couldn't break his heart, not when we were half way around the world." Lauren tried again to get space but Bo refused to budge, standing firmly in the way

"I should have broken up with him the minute I saw how much it hurt you. When I realized that what I felt for him was completely overshadowed by my feelings towards you. Seeing you with Skye just made me realize how stupid I had been. How much I had hurt you, you deserve so much better than how I've treated you. I'm so sorry" Bo had tears starting to form as her emotions hit her. Bo stared at the love of her life standing inches away from her.

"For a succubus you're an idiot" Lauren mumbled drawing the succubus in for a hug. The speech Bo had given had warmed her heart. She understood that she should still be mad and upset at Bo. But in the moment, with Bo so close laying her heart on the line, Lauren couldn't find it within herself to think of the past. All she could focus on was the beautiful person standing in front of her. For the first time in months all Lauren could think of was the future that they could have

"I love you Lauren" Bo said tears streaming down her face.

"I love you too"

"Haha were quiet the pair aren't we?" Bo laughed herself and the doctor with tears running down their faces

"I think we should make out some more" Bo stated officially breaking up the emotional moment. Lauren smiled at the succubus as their lips meet, both women putting all of their pent up feelings towards one another into that one single kiss.

….

"Whoa" Kenzi stopped abruptly taking in her best friend who had the doctor pinned against the door. They were so fixated on one another Kenzi doubted that they even noticed her.

"Holy shit. Trick are they supposed to be glowing?" Swirls of gold lights randomly illuminated the pair, but Bo and Lauren appeared oblivious to it.

"No no this is very bad. Kenzi we must separate them now!" Trick shouted

"You sure Trick" Kenzi asked hesitantly "Cause I don't think Bo would appreciate being crotch blocked especially when Hot Pants is involved"

"Kenzi trust me this needs to stop before it goes any further"

"Okayyyy then Kenzi to the rescue; protect the alcohol Trickster I'm going in!" Kenzi cautiously approached them ensuring she stayed well out of reach of the succubus.

"BO!" Kenzi yelled startling Bo and the doctor.

"What Kenzi" Bo asked angrily eyes flashing at the person with the audacity to interrupt her and Lauren.

"Trick says we need to talk proto so you guys are gonna have to succubang later… and maybe in a room without me in it?" Bo rolled her eyes at her friend, twisting back to Lauren and capturing her lips again.

"Trick can wait" She pressed herself up against the doctor, growling at all the layers of clothing that separated them

"No Bo, Bo stop" Lauren said breathlessly, desperately trying to remember why they needed to stop.

"Come on the sooner we talk to Trick the sooner we can get back to this okay?" Lauren bargained with the succubus who merely groaned quickly pecking her lips. Bo grabbed Lauren's hand moodily storming over to where Trick was.

"Thank god" Kenzi muttered as she rubbed her eyes resigning herself to the fact that some sights could never be unseen.

….

Trick wearily sized up his granddaughter as he stood with one of the ancient texts laid out in front of him. Nothing separated him and the woman before him but the counter of the bar. He watched as Bo guided Lauren into a stool standing with her hands around the doctor as they looked at him expectantly. This must be done he reminded himself, no matter what, this time he would not fail. Trick cleared his throat

"I have found out some imperative information that pertains to the situation at hand"

"Well what is it Trickster don't leave a sister hanging!" Kenzi exclaimed

"I've translated the last part of the prophecy and I have figured out a way to prevent it"

"That's amazing Trick" Bo exclaimed enthusiastically hugging Lauren from behind.

"I told you Lauren, I told you that Trick would figure something out!" Lauren gazed up at Bo, the happiness radiating from her becoming contagious

"You were right Bo" Lauren whispered both getting lost in each other

"Ahem" Trick cleared his throat, snapping Lauren and Bo out of their spell

"It's not that simple Bo" Trick began attempting to get Bo to listen.

"But it is Trick, as long as we all stick together we can get through this!"

"You're wrong Bo" Trick's voice rang out cutting through all of them. His words settled leaving behind a trail of silence and uneasiness

"What do you mean?" Kenzi tentatively questioned the stoic Blood King.

"The key to solving the prophecy isn't sticking together it is staying apart"

"What the hell are you talking about?" Bo was beginning to get agitated Trick was freaking her out but worst of all he was worrying Lauren, Bo could feel it. No one, not even her grandfather, was going to make Lauren uncomfortable. Bo moved so she was standing side by side with Lauren folding her arms and waiting for Trick to continue.

"I've looked at it and the light and dark will leave you alone as long as you agree to one thing. Bo this would save you from persecution!"

"If this is such good news why do you look so upset?" Bo questioned appreciating the gentle hand that had wound it's around her fingers.

Trick looked at Bo and Lauren's connected hands, and the gold glow that was coming off of them. He needed to act quickly before the bond was solidified.

"You have to stay away from Lauren" Trick whispered looking down unwilling to see the betrayal and hurt he was sure was going to be in his granddaughters eyes

"WHAT!" Lauren jumped up grabbing Bo and preventing her from lunging at Trick.

"You dare tell me to stay away from her" Bo snarled her eyes flashing blue with rage.

"Bo Bo calm down. Trick explain yourself and quickly before Bo hurts someone" Kenzi stated. Confusion surrounded the whole group as they tried to process what Trick was saying.

"Bo you fit every aspect of the prophecy except one piece. The golden conection. If you don't complete that there is no way it could be you. The fae know this, you would be safe." Trick's eyes looked pleadingly at Bo, willing her to understand. Bo merely stared at him, almost as if she wasn't really seeing him. Trick had never seen Bo look at him with suck disdain before.

"Trick dude talk faster, explain more" Kenzi shouted trying to convey to Trick that Bo was very close to snapping and without Lauren there Kenzi was pretty sure he would have been thrown across the room by now.

"The gold link refers to a bond between two people. It's much like a marriage bond, but when completed they can feel each other's emotions. It is said to be unbreakable once formed, although no one really knows" Tricks voice trailed off as he got lost in his thoughts

"Why are you unsure of your facts?" Lauren questioned tearing her eyes away from the succubus to focus on Trick.

"Because the last gold bonded couple died over a fourteen centuries ago. There are many legends, offering different explanations with different powers. Some say they hear each other's thoughts, one feels pain so does the other, some say they can know where the other is at all times…It has been so long the stories have become legends. I cannot honestly tell you what the golden bond really entails."

"So what it's a love bond?" Kenzi asked curiously

"Basically it connects two souls forever"

"What does that have to do with Lauren and Bo?" Kenzi asked feeling like she was missing something.

"Legend says that when the bond recognizes its other half, when they touch they will glow gold." Trick pointed to the gold shimmer around Bo and Lauren's hands

"Holy Shit Bo Lauren you guys are soul bond thingys that's so cool" Kenzi shouted pointing to their hands. Lauren and Bo, both stared at their hands before meeting each other's eyes.

"This is a lot" Lauren stated uneasily, what if Bo freaked out? Lauren wasn't sure she could handle it. Bo sensing Lauren's unease hugged her

"I think it feels right" Bo whispered into her ear. Lauren smiled into Bo's neck unwilling to let her go

"It is said to be an extremely powerful connection. Although the side effects of a bonding between a human and fae must be closely examined. I would have thought it impossible…"

"Why didn't this happen before Trick? We've known each other for years now" Lauren questioned her mind to curious to shut down

"From what I've read it can only be formed when there is complete trust between the two allowing the bond to present itself."

"That makes sense" Lauren said thinking back on her past with Bo. It had been filled with lies and heartache.

"If this is so powerful why do you want to keep us apart" Bo spoke her eyes cold

"If you complete the bond there will be no doubt that it is you. They will hunt you to then ends of the earth. Bo you are destined to destroy them!" Trick took a deep breathe knowing what he was about to say could turn Bo against him, but it had to be done.

"If you do this they will come after Lauren and not you Bo. She is human, they will kill her just to stop you" The room froze as Trick's words sunk in. Bo slowly unwound herself from Lauren turning to the Blood King.

"Listen Blood Kind and head my words. No one will hurt Lauren not while I'm here. If you come near her again I will kill you, blood or not. Stay away from me old man or suffer the consequences" Bo eyes were solid blue as she turned her back on Trick. He is a danger to us. We will watch him careful Bo promised. She was so enraged that even Lauren's presence couldn't keep the voices away.

"Bo hey honey calm down" Lauren grabbed Bo's face in her hands, gently placing a kiss on her lips

"We can get through this, and if the best way to keep you safe is to stay away then" Lauren gulped forcing her tears back "Then that's what we're going to do"

"NO!" Bo roared "I'm not letting you go. I don't care about them, there is no way were less powerful apart. I feel lost without you Lauren. I need you" Bo's brokenly whispered. Lauren analyzed the situation in front of her desperate to find an answer, but it was Kenzi who became the voice of reason.

"Trick you're wrong. I mean sure light and dark hunting for us is not the best thing, but separating those two is a bad idea. Unless you didn't notice Trickster Bo's not that stable without Hot Pants. She's a little on edge, as they say, when their apart. I would bet my life long supply of alcohol that if you force this then Bo is a hell of a lot more likely to become this big bad monster everyone's so afraid of"

Trick looked at his granddaughter, truly looked. It appeared Kenzi might be right. She was too connected to the human doctor. The link was there, solidified or not, he had been too late. If he forced this she would only unravel faster.

"You're right Kenzi" Trick stated nodding his head in her direction. "We need a plan of action. I'm going to call Dyson and Hale, were going to need all the help we can get." Bo glared at Trick not trusting his sudden change of heart. He is a threat. Yes Bo agreed he could not be trusted.

"I'll call Hale" Kenzi offered "He can never refuse his lil mama" Lauren moved to stand facing Bo. She was so thankful that they wouldn't be forced apart. That they would have a chance to see where their relationship was headed.

Bo grinned helplessly at her doctor, forgetting about Trick and her voices.

"I guess were going to be around each other for a while longer" Lauren commented

"I would have followed you" Bo stated honestly. She had just got Lauren back after Bo had been an ass. She was not about to let the doctor walk out of her life again

"I know you would have" Lauren didn't know if it was the bond that was supposedly between them. But she knew deep within her that Bo would follow her anywhere. For better or worse they were connected. Bo pulled Lauren against her, peppering kisses all over her face

"I love you"

"I love you too" Bo's heart soared at those words; with Lauren there she was safe.

"I think we need a drink" Lauren pointed towards the bar in front of them moving to grab some glasses. Bo watched her in awe, she was so beautiful. Lauren's presence was intoxicating, no one was going to separate them. She smiled as Lauren walked back towards her. With Lauren and Kenzi by her side she would be alright. Bo would protect them with her life. We will make sure they are safe. Bo nodded Lauren and Kenzi were the people she cared about. They could worry about prophecies later.
