A/N I am slowing down a bit I think. I just was doing some reading and realised the idea I had for the ending to this had been like totally done so I am having to go and recreate the last half grrrrr But anyway. I am needing an opinion on something. How much ship do you want at the end? I can totally establish it in the new ending if you all want or I can just have one of those mutual understanding endings leaving me open for a follow up story, or a happy medium...let me know!

Sam was once again in the room by herself, totally and utterly confused.

"You are quiet Samantha." The voice said.

"I was not sure if you were here." Sam told the voice as she lay down on the bench.

"I am always here. Do you believe your journey has been helpful?" The voice asked.

"Helpful isn't a word I'd use. I am still unsure what it is you want me to see, or what I am meant to figure out." Sam said. She squeezed the bridge of her nose trying to relieve the pressure built up there.

"You were able to see yourself and your friends." The voice said.

"Yeah, I didn't look so good." Sam told the voice.

"But you are healing. You will soon be able to return to your physical body in that existence." The Voice told her.

"Well that's nice. Tell me, when I wake up, will I remember any of this? Will I be able to tell people that I saw Janet and my mom again? Or will I jut know what it is I am supposed to have learnt here?" The idea of having to live with this secret her whole life was something she was used to but hated. The idea of not remembering the precious time she had been given with her mom and with Janet terrified her even more.

"You will remember Samantha. Otherwise what would be the point? We did this as much for you as for us. Did you not enjoy the time with your mother and friend?" The voice asked.

"Of course! It was wonderful. I just feel a little bad that I was able to say goodbye to them and others weren't." Sam said sitting up.

"I understand. Perhaps in time they will get the chance to say a final goodbye."

"Maybe. So what's next?" Sam asked.

"Let us assess what you have learnt so far." The Voice asked.

"Before we get to that, do you have a name?" Sam asked the voice.

"Why do you ask?" The voice asked hesitantly.

"Well it seems I am going to be here for a little while longer yet, what should I call you?"

"In my time as a physical being I was called Brae." He said.

"Well Brae, it's a pleasure to meet you." Sam said.

"You too Samantha. You are a truly interesting being." Brae said.

"Thank you. You are not so dull yourself." Sam said.

"Now, as to what you have learnt. Do you believe your visit has been fulfilling?"

"To be honest, no, I feel like I have more questions than before." Sam said.

"About what?"

"Well for starters, my people, the human race. Are you saying that we are going to grow into something like the Ancients, or your people for that matter?"

"Your people have much to learn and many, many mistakes to make before you begin to explore the full potential within you. But there is a great plan for you." Brae said.

"And I am part of that plan?" Sam asked hoping he would continue to clarify further.

"You are a catalyst. With you the seed will be planted." Brae answered.

"What does that mean?" Sam asked.

"That will be revealed in time Samantha, but what is important is that you have accepted who you are. And that you are ready to follow the path you are destined for. What did your mother show you?" Brae asked.

"She showed me that I was created from love, and that not everything is as it seems. I need to find a love like the one that created me, that maybe that is the missing piece." Sam said.

"Very good. You have taken in much more than most. And your friend Janet, what did she show you." Brae said.

"I am not sure if what she showed me was a good thing." Sam said.

"She told you to look harder, and not to pass anything by."

"I guess." Sam said.

"Then she was successful." Said Brae.

"Was there anything else I was meant to pick up on? Seems like I should have got the meaning of life somewhere along the line..." Sam said.

"Everyone's life has many meanings Sam. There is more than one."

"Well ok, but was there something else I was meant to learn, like why my future is so important." Sam said.

"As I have told you, you journey is not yet complete. When it is, you will see why you had to take this trip. Samantha, your time here is growing short, there is still one more person you have to see." Brae said.

"Who?" Sam asked.

"Hello Sam." Someone from behind her said. Sam whirled around to see who was with her now. She was taken back by the figure before her. The elderly woman was slightly round shouldered with a tiny frame. Her almost white hair hung loosely around her face in soft waves and her eyes were a piercing grey blue. Sam thought the woman must have been around seventy.

"Hi." Sam said moving towards her.

"How are you?" The woman asked.

"Fine, do I know you?" Sam asked.

"Not yet. But you will." The woman told her.

Sam stared in confusion at the woman...I am too old for this she thought.
