A/n: Hunter and Moira made up! Yay for them! I hope they find Morgan. . .but do they? Mwahahahahahaha (sorry I'm evil)

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

"Sky, come on, we've got a job to do" My daughter Moira was surprisingly sure we would get my Morgan back, and I believe her, she fills me with the same hope and assurance Morgan did back when we we're together, I had to live without her for 15 years, I couldn't do another 15, I needed her back with me, I would die trying, I'm living a half existence without her anyway.

"What? Where are we going?" she asked following us out into the car.

"To see Richard," I said, "If he doesn't tell me where Morgan is, I'll make him,"

I looked across at Moira who was stiff and shaken up, I could tell what she was thinking, I put my hand on her arm and gave it a quick squeeze

"For his sake, I hope Tim's not involved either"

She nodded but didn't say anything more.

"Do you know he lives?" I asked Moira, as I was suddenly aware I had no idea where I was going

"Alyce would" Sky said Moira shook her head signalling she didn't, "She recommended him to our coven. . ."

Sky whipped out her cell and I pulled over the car until I knew where I was going.

I could only hear Sky's half of the conversation

"Hi Alyce. . . fine, you?. . . that's good, Alyce I'm sorry to call you like this but we need to know Richard O'Connell's address, do you have it?. . . oh goddess thank you. . . why? Oh err, we'll explain later but it's important . . . okay then 12 Rutland Way?. . . yeah I think so. . . near the Woodland estate isn't it?. . . thanks Alyce, I'll talk to you later, take care. . . bye"

I pulled out and started driving, "You know where you're going?" Sky asked

"12 Rutland Way near the Woodland estate" I replied

When we arrived I drew up all the power I could, I felt Sky and Moira do the same, I was highly surprised though, I felt waves of power coming from Moira, I shouldn't really be surprised, her mother was Morgan Niall.

Before we reached the door Richard came out.

"Ah, Hunter, Sky and Moira, what a surprise to see you all, what are you doing here?" he grinned

"Where is she?" I demanded

"Where is who?"

"Don't play games with me O'Connell, where is Morgan Niall?"

"It hurts don't it" he said

I didn't understand.

"Where is she?" I asked again

"You don't remember me do you, SEEKER" he spat

He must have met me as a seeker, he does seem familiar. . .

"Well it has been 21 years since our last encounter," he continued

"I'm not a seeker anymore" I said, I haven't been for 20 years"

"But I still want revenge on the man who stole my mùirn beatha dàn"

I felt Moira was confused, scared and upset, I sent her reassuring waves.

Then it hit me. . . "Kelly O'Connell" I murmured

Richard nodded, "That's right, she died because of you!"

"She was practising dark magick, she was working for Amyranth! I had to strip her of her powers, anyway, you're woodbane, not a Brightendale!"

"You wouldn't have excepted me into the coven if I was woodbane, I needed to see how strong your coven was, but then again its full of non witches so I don't think I'll have a problem there" he laughed

"But if your wife died 21 years ago? Who's Tim's mom?" I looked over to Moira who had just asked the question through her fear.

"My wife died 17 years ago, she was living as a non witch after she was stripped, I still stayed by her, but she was weak really weak without her powers, she died during childbirth" then he turned on me, "And it is your fault, Niall!"

The next thing I knew he had me under a binding spell and I was choking, if only it was I who was taken rather then Morgan, she would have done a better job at this.

"NO!" I heard Moira scream

"Al nith tagth enarc cocth menara tath sagarth imena nac nil veana!" she chanted in a low growl.

It Richard flying backwards and he was bound mid air, like he was frozen, unable to move.

I was released from my binding spell and I looked directly at Moira and saw Sky did also.

"What? How? How did you do that?" I asked

She started shaking, "I don't know, it just came to me like somebody just whispered it in my ear and then I did it,"

"I'm not surprised you have powerful origins, Maeve, Ciaran, Morgan and even Hunter" Sky said

"I'm not that –" I was about to say I wasn't powerful at all until Sky cut me off.

"Yes, you are would the council have taken you on if you weren't? Would you be one of the head elders of the New Charter?"

I was about to protest but we all turned around when we felt it.

"Tim," Moira murmured

He was coming in his car back from school.

"Moira? What are you doing here?" he asked as soon as he got out of the car, but then he saw his father frozen in mid air.

"What's going on here?" he demanded

"You tell us" Hunter asked, "Do you know what your fathers? Been up to?"

He hung his head, "Yes" he murmured

"Talk" Sky snapped

"My dad is on some weird bent vengeance scheme on you Mr Niall, he wanted us to join Kithic to eliminate any threat, and he wanted me to get close to Moira"

My heart caught in my chest, it was Cal and Selene all over again.

"But, I didn't want any part in it I swear, I really like you Moira, I didn't want my stupid father to ruin it, but he knows my true name and won't stop at anything."

I didn't know whether to believe him, he sounded so sincere.

"Are you telling me the truth?" Moira asked

"Yes, oh goddess yes Moira, I really like you I don't want to hurt you, any of you, he just makes me do what he wants, I don't know how he knows my true name"
"Tim what is his plan? Do you know anything about a woman called Morgan Niall?" I asked

"My dad's doing some business with this guy, I don't know who he is but I can find out, I don't know all of the story but dad was seriously hell bent on this revenge with you Mr Niall, he was working with Bith Dearc's for years, he knows how to master them now, he was once looking for mom and he found this guy. . . I dunno what happened from there but he seriously hated you too and somehow he brought him back with a spell and they took Morgan and hid her in this cave in the side of a mountain somewhere around the Alps in Europe, they needed to make sure she was dead far away, I'm sorry I didn't tell you before but its true, all of it! I swear"

At this point I saw my daughter had tears rolling down her eyes, "Prove it to me Tim" she said

"Your welcome to explore my mind. . . no holding back. . . you can control it"

She put her fingers on his temples; they were deep into meditation for a few minutes.

"He's telling the truth," she said finally when they came back to reality.

"Do you think he can see and hear everything we do?" Tim asked looking at his father.

"I don't know" Moira replied,

"I'm calling the Charter to pick him up, we know everything we need to about him, do you know where this cave is?"

"I think so, roughly"

I went inside and rang the co-head elder of the charter and asked him to send some men to come pick up Richard.

"We can go now," I told them when I came back out, "Richard won't be going very far and we need to catch a plane,"

Tim stood staring at his father, "Are you coming with us?" Moira asked

He nodded, "I don't want to work for the dark side any more, I want to work for good using my own free will, I'm a good woodbane"

"Good to hear it, now lets go" I said
