Constantino again demanded 7 farms we told him no New Bern attacked Jake and I with 25 men went and took out the mortars with Jonah Prowse. Afterwards I walked over to Jonah "Can I speak to you" he looked at me.
"What do you want kid?" Jonah said.
"Jonah do you know my mother Liana Talbert?" I said.
"Yea I know her what of it?" Jonah said.
"I'm your daughter" I said looking at him.
"Prove it" Jonah said I pulled out the copies of the DNA and birth certificate handing them to him he looked at them before looking at me. "Why are you just now coming to me wit this why didn't you mother come to me" he said.
"My twin sister died when I was 2 she was horrified and hurt she was depressed I lost most of my hearing I wear a hearing aid when I am having a bad day. My mother just didn't know how to tell you" I said standing there looking down at my feet after Jonah and his men took the stuff for themselves I cursed him he looked at me "Jonah Prowse go to hell you asshole" I said as he drove away taking the weapons and mortar as he looked at me Jake and I were silent as we stood there before getting in the truck and going to Jericho.
I organized the refugees and people to fight New Bern everyone got weapons and Ammo I went out scouting I found the New Bern camp I watched before I radioed back to Jericho. I was almost 6 months pregnant I put on my best fighting clothes and loaded up with weapons I went with Jake we went to the Richmond farm Constantin and his people took 2 or 3 farms already. I cursed I loaded and cleaned the weapons before moving to the blockade at the end of the drive I stood looking through the scope as we waited for Constantino.
The men were firing on each other I was surprised when I heard the tank coming the men were all looking at each other as the tank fired once. Johnston who had been walking next to the tank got shot I pushed them out of the way and I started patching Johnston up I paced Gail was being brought. Eric and Jake were angry but I told them Johnston would survive he was strong he talked to Jake and Eric as I stood there with them before going outside to see more men coming I grabbed the radio as it went off Constantino was waiting.
"I just heard about Johnston" Constantino said.
"He'll survive thanks to me Constantino" I said.
"Surrender peacefully and no one else will get hurt" Constantino said.
"You expect me to believe that" I said.
"Believe it or don't but we will take the farms one way or another" Constantino said.
"Constantino are you willing to kill your only family if you keep attacking you will loose them" I said into the radio quietly.
"Repeat that I didn't quiet catch all that" Constantino said.
"Are you willing to kill the only remaining family that you have left" I said quietly Johnston was taken back to Jericho as I stood there his wife had come. Kenchy the doctor in town said I saved his life I sat on the front porch steps holding the radio my head hanging down as I waited I hadn't told anyone. I was waiting for Constantino to reply to the information I had given him I had been hiding the pregnancy for so long April was on Maternity leave the baby was due any day now and she needed to prepare for it to come into the world.
"What family are you talking about?" Constantino said I stood up and paced.
"Your family that's all you need to know" I said looking down at my hands.
"Why should I believe you" Constantino said.
"Because I know who I'm talking about they don't know I'm telling you" I said quietly looking at heaven as I sent up a prayer hoping that my gambit worked. Constantino didn't reply for well over 5 minutes I was wearing a hole in the boards of the porch.
"I want to know who they are tell me" Constantino said over the radio as I looked down at the ground.
"it's a bit less simple than that" I said "Even if I tell you, you won't believe me you have to see for yourself" I said quietly as I stood up and looked down at my belly. I rubbed it slowly the baby was active early on I sat Constantino attacked us the military broke up the fighting as I stood I looked at Major Beck. Constantino was forced to sit down at the table I was standing with my back turned so that Constantino couldn't see my front I crossed my arms over my chest thankful for the loose clothing that I wore an the fact I wasn't quiet showing.
I stood there I slowly turned to Constantino I hadn't seen him in over 2 weeks I had my hair down I hadn't had a haircut in weeks possibly months. Jake and Eric had gone back to Jericho the Guns an Ammo was disappeared to keep it out of the hands of the men who came to help us Constantino looked at me as I faced him. Major Beck looked at us Constantino looked his eyes concentrated on me as I looked at Beck he knew I was pregnant I had told him immediately to keep the civil when they dragged me inside the house.
Constantino looked at me "Tell me who you were talking about" he said looking at me as I cleared my throat.
"I.." I sniffed before Beck said I should set down I shook him off "I was so afraid I would never have one of my own because of the bombs and the size of the town. Constantino I'm pregnant" I said wiping my nose.
"Pregnant. That can't be" Constantino said looking at me I used my powers to strip everything out of the house and all my other properties to keep Jennings & Rall from taking it. J&R brought in food and water when they found there was nothing left in town to eat or drink I did it to protect my property the house was now a replica. I even relocated the actual house to a house on my families private island including the bunker under the house was now in international waters as well I was silent as I stood quietly in Stanley's house.
Constantino looked at me as I stood and looked at him "I didn't know what to do when I found out I was freaked then I was just trying to be able to survive and keep this town together" I said looking down at my feet sighing I felt sick but I stood quietly. "Beck I can help you and your people I have to be able to move between Jericho and New Bern" I said looking at Constantino and then at Beck who was curious.
