"Family Reunions"


"Hey Aiden!" Richard called over to the tall man in overalls, "you want to take this kid with you, before we join her up with the other group." He thrust forward Rebecca to him. "Oh and take Maggie too, she's usually the one in charge of the children."

"Ya 'ave no need to worry there" Aiden Cullen told him and stuck out his hand to Rebecca. "Pleese ta meetcha."

Rebecca took a moment to look at him and then spat on his hand. These people killed her father, she was hardly going to be friendly with them. Without batting an eyelid Aiden rubbed his hand on his overalls. "A'right missy. Ya gonna play it that way, and we're going ta have to find Maggie."

She ignored him, and then stuck her foot down hard on his and decided to make a run for it. "Yaow!" Aiden yelled in surprise at her actions.

Just as Rebecca thought she was about to re-enter the jungle someone stepped out in front of her, "Just where do you think you're going?" It was a short girl with glasses and a cross around her neck. She grabbed Rebecca by the hair. "Looks like you're going to do things my way, capice?"

Rebecca nodded dumbly at her.

"How's the girl been?" Stephanie asked Maggie gently, as she went over to see what had become of the one she'd found in the Orchid Station.

"She's doing fine. Just having a long rest." Maggie indicated gently to where the girl was sleeping inside the one of the rooms of her house.

"That's great." Stephanie smiled unsure. "So what does John want us to do with her?"

Maggie heaved a sigh, everything was changing now that John was in charge and not her brother. She didn't know if she even should bother being so careful as to follow the man's requests but she knew it was what the island desired, and she wasn't going to mess with that. "She'll join the other kids..."

"And she'll be alright... right? I mean, she just lost her father" Stephanie's voice quaked a little, she thought about this in relation to Jason and how he had become losing his father. The last thing she wanted was the same problems to befall this girl.

Maggie gave Stephanie a hard stare, as a medical technician emotional problems were hardly her specialty... or her concern. "She'll be fine."


"Well, well, well" Sawyer began strolling into the Barracks. "If it isn't good old Locke, King of the Others."

"Looks like you weren't back at the beach very long" Locke greeted Sawyer, making an allusion to when they were last together and Sawyer left with Miles and Claire to go tramping through the jungle back to the beach.

Sawyer scowled, and dropped his bag at his feet, "yeah if Claire hadn't upped and disappeared in the middle of the night I would have stayed too."

John Locke wasn't surprised, "Oh yeah, Claire's fine."

Sawyer stared at him, stunned. "Claire's fine?" He repeated, completely dumbfounded.

"Yeah, she's fine" Locke didn't elaborate, "So you're here to join with us?"

Sawyer's eyes were still bulging about the news about Claire, but he kept his temper and snorted at Locke's assumption. "I wouldn't ever want to join you and your band of merry hostiles. We're just here for Red." He indicated to Charlotte and lowered his voice, "apparently she's a native to these parts, fancy that."

Locke turned his attentions to Charlotte, "You were born here?"

"Well, I'm not 100 percent..." Charlotte began, face flushed.

Juliet stepped up in front of Locke, "where's Jason?"


"So how is she?" Jason asked later wrapping his arms around Stephanie.

Stephanie bit her lip. "I don't know... I'm just afraid she'll... after her father..." she desperately didn't want to say 'turn out like you' but Jason seemed to get the message anyhow.

He frowned, but there was a knock on the door interrupting them. Stephanie went to answer it.

"Juliet!" She cried and embraced the woman. It was great to see her friend back at last when she'd been gone for so long.

"How have you been Steffie?" Juliet asked, intrigued at why Stephanie would be here at Jason's. Stephanie opened the door up and Juliet and Charlotte stepped inside.

"Been great!" Stephanie replied honestly, thing had been going really good... well at least for the last few days or so. When they made it to the living room area, Jason was surprised at who it was. Juliet was back, with another woman he had never seen before.

"Hi Jason" Juliet grinned at him, this reunion was reminding her of old times. She put a hand on Charlotte's shoulder but kept looking at the man with a strange resemblance to Marvin Candle. "Jason, meet your sister, Charlotte."


"So are we ready to go again?" Kelsey asked Erica, who was just replenishing her thirst in one of the refrigerators inside the house closest to the way they came in. Erica finished her water in one gulp and nodded to Kesley.

"Ready as I'll ever be."

"Then let's go find this time rift."

Rosalie walked up ahead as they came across a space with lots of plants that looked like they were in pots this time. A green-house. She looked around desperatly for an entrance as Rainfall stood beside her scouting out things. "So this is the Orchid. How do we get in?" Rainfall asked.

Rosalie moved around some plants and came across an elevator. "Looks like we just found it."

Daniel put a hand on her shoulder quickly, "don't you think I should go first, you know, in case there's anything down there?"

Rosalie smiled at him, "Sure go ahead" she said nervously, hoping there was nothing down there herself.
