"That's it?" laughed Ian as Alison and Livvie mentioned the gun shot and then changed the subject. "You—you promised me the aftermath to this whole thing and I leave tomorrow," said Ian as he pointed at Caleb.

"I did, didn't I? Well, it's not much, but if you want us to tell you then we will."

"Of course I want to hear this. I feel like I've been hearing this story for months and I'm not leaving this damn town until I get the rest of the story."

"Are you two ready to go?" asked Rafe as he walked up the sidewalk of Kovich Manor to where Alison and Livvie were sitting on the steps with the door inside having fallen in again.

"Yeah—you really need to fix that, Rafe. Or is that some slayer trick to fool your enemies?" laughed Livvie as she looked back at the entrance again.

Rafe rubbed his face and gave a slight grin, "Yeah, I know it needs to be fixed. I'll call here from Port Charles next week and have someone come over to fix the problems this place has. So everything ready?"

"Shouldn't we be asking you that question?" asked Alison. Rafe and Caleb had taken JT's corpse over to the pauper's cemetery earlier, and given the girls a few hours to do some sightseeing before heading home.

"Yeah, it's all taken care of. I don't think we should have anymore Temple's harassing us ever again, right Caleb?"

"Right," he said coming up the walk also before they took one last look around the Manor before heading out.

"Daddy!" hollered Tara, Kate, and Lizzie simultaneously as the four walked into the lighthouse and they took note that the house looked a little worse for wear, even it had only been two days since Livvie and Alison left.

"Hey sunshine," said Caleb as he picked up his daughter and held her tight and giving her kisses, "I missed you sweetheart."

"I missed you too Daddy," she smiled brightly.

"Hey Princesses," said Rafe as he got double hugs from Kate and Lizzie.

"Were they too much for you two?" asked Alison to Kevin and Lucy.

"No, but I think we don't need to be exercising for a few months," grinned Kevin as he handed over his grandson to his daughter and gave her a kiss.

"Yeah, they can do that to you," she said as she smiled down at Alex.

"So is everything over? Is this another nightmare we can put to rest?"

"Yeah, it is. Livvie and I got to give him a piece of our mind beforehand also," smiled Alison as she held Eddie on her hip. "I guess the only thing we have to do to get back to normal is to help Jack find Jasmine now."

"Oh," said Lucy under hear breath.

Livvie stopped looking between her kids and at Lucy with her eyes huge, "Oh, what?"

"It's just that Jack already started that little hunt without you."

"Well that's fine, we'll just start helping out tomorrow—I need to sleep in my bed for a night before I start another search," said Rafe.

"It's not that easy—he got a lead and left yesterday. He wouldn't even tell anyone where the lead was to."

"Well Lizzie, looks like you'll have to wait a few months before you see Leslie again."

"No Daddy—Leslie with Kiss."

"He left Leslie with Chris?"

"Yeah, Chris called us last night needing help with a diaper, but he hasn't called once today. I guess it's going well now," said Kevin with a laugh.

"Well, do you think we should go see how he's doing before we head home?" asked Livvie to Alison.

"I remember you two coming by that night. The only time I think my place looked worse was when we were doing the George fashion line and I had industrial sewing machines set up in my living room," laughed Chris as he thought back to that. "Those first few weeks I think I called every few hours with what I believed was another stupid question. In the end though I think I did pretty good—I definitely couldn't have accomplished raising a daughter on my own without what seemed like my own support team."

"Hey, the girls did their part too—I remember this one time I had the girls at the playground at the park—I don't remember where Livvie or Alex and Eddie were. There was this older kid, who obviously had the town gossip queen for a mother. The child started picking on Leslie—saying how her mom left her, doesn't love her—and then had the gall to ask what it's like to be unloved and motherless. Well Tara, who was a good bit smaller than this kid, walks over and attempts to look her right in the eye and says 'Leslie does too have a mommy. She has three, mine, Miss Alison, and Miss Imani—how many do you have?'"

"Tara sounds sounds headstrong, just like someone else I know," grinned Ian as he looked over at Livvie who was beaming with pride at her daughter's remarks at such a young age.

"Oh definitely. Don't let her size fool you," smiled Livvie. "The girls have never let the fact that Jasmine is gone keep Leslie down—they are their own little sorority within each other, picking one up when the other is down and watching each other's backs."

"Speaking of Jasmine and Leslie I forgot to ask earlier--does Leslie have the same vision as her mom?"

Chris shook his head, "As far as I know she doesn't."

Tara sat at the ice cream parlor with the rest of the girls after the movie looking at the people around her. She saw the cute brunette that was in chemistry class before hers walk in and smiled, "Him—he's the one I was telling you that's so cute, Kate," she said as her friend turned and smiled.

"Yeah, you are right—he is cute. But I think he's a Senior."

"Darn. Hey—you could go after him, I mean he's only probably a year and a half older than you."

"Mmmm, maybe."

"Why are you looking? I mean you have Mark still, right?" asked Lizzie as she picked at her hot fudge sundae.

"Yeah, but I mean I know Mark and I aren't meant to be forever. If that were the case I wouldn't be looking at other guys."

"Still waiting for your guy to fall out of the sky from Heaven, Kate?" asked Leslie with a laugh.

"Yeah, nothing like falling in love with a real life angel. Tara—I thought you were still expecting your true love to walk up to you out of the blue and tell you he's your future."

"I've given up on that—it's not going to happen, at least not in the immediate future."

"Well, unlike you two I already know who I am supposed to be with," smiled Lizzie brightly.

"Sweetie—I wish you would realize what you are saying," sighed Tara as she pushed her bangs out of her face.

"I do realize what I'm saying. I know what I want, and I'm going to get it—I will make Alex realize he loves me."

"My brother doesn't know anything about love Lizzie—he's only eleven, plus all he thinks about right now is--."

"Being a vampire and studying the Morley history—I know."

"And that doesn't bother you?"

"No, because that's who he is. And I know who I am."

"Which is why you should realize this is a stupid idea. He's a vampire—we're slayers—it's not supposed to work that way dear sister."

"Why not? I mean that's how things were originally, right? A Kovich and Morley fell in love and the rest was history."

"No, that's not how it was at all. The name Kovich was a pseudonym for the Morley's to use when they were human."

"So in other words we are all technically Morley's," she smiled.

"Which technically means that's incest," replied Katrina in a sarcastic tone a little too loud so others turned and looked at their table. "You know what—nevermind. You go ahead and you tell dad you are in love with someone who is going to be a vampire in seven years when he turns eighteen, and when the shit hits the fan with our father's and they go after each other again and start another 369 year war I'll remember to blame you."

"That's not going to happen! Things are different now."

"No they haven't. You can hide your true feelings for your family, but in the end if something causes the true feelings to come out then there is no hiding back—and what you are talking about is exactly something to cause those feelings to come out."

"Did you take your stupid pills this morning with your froot loops?"

"No, but I can see you did."

"Ok, that's enough both of you," said Leslie as she jumped in before another insult could be thrown. "Lizzie—I think you should listen to what Kate says, it does make sense."

"Oh my God—now my best friend is on your side. I swear sometimes I wish it was Amelia that had lived instead of me."

"Elizabeth Rachel Kovich—take that back this instant," yelled Tara.

"No, I will not because if I wasn't around then we wouldn't have to worry about some stupid person like myself to restart the war," she said as she yelled back and got up and began walking towards the door.

"Where are you going?"

"I don't know—somewhere that people understand me," she yelled back before heading out the door.

"What should I do?" asked Kate.

"Nothing. Let me go talk to her," said Leslie as she jumped up and went after her. "Lizzie—where are you. Lizzie!" she shouted as she ran in the parking lot and didn't see her around. "Where did you go?" she said closing her eyes and got a vision of where she was headed too, "No! Not again—why do I keep seeing these things?" she cried as she put her hands over her eyes before heading off to where she thought she'd be.
