Author's Note: Sorry if I' m getting a lot of you confused. Stanton does love Josephine but that is by default since she is the mother of his children. Although that is the case, he still loves Serena with all his heart. If I explain any further, I will be giving away the plot. So you'll all have to WAIT. Muahahahaha. ...Excuse me...
"What do you want?" Josephine asked, voice shaky. She held the shivering toddlers close to her, watching Lambert and Jacques with unwavering eyes.
"See," Jacques began, walking forward, "the reason we brought you here was to lure Stanton. Honestly, we were going to kill you and those brats."
"But you can't do that," Josephine yelled. "I'm Immortal and so are my children!"
"Oh we weren't going to do it in the present day," Jacques went on, cocking a brow. "We were going to travel back in time to when you weren't Immortal. In fact, Lambert's already there."
Everyone looked in the direction where Lambert had been a few seconds ago only to see a dark portal close. "He's gone!" Catty shouted, looking at the empty spot in a gaping stare. Stanton ran over to Josephine, grabbing her shoulders.
"We must go after them."
"But how? I don't know time travel," Josephine said, putting down Michele and Genevieve.
"But I do," Stanton said. "We have to do this."
"What if we don't get there in time?" Josephine yelled.
Stanton was hesitant in answering her question. What if they didn't get there in time? "We'll just have to play it by ear!"
Now it was Josephine's turn to stare at him blankly. "And Michele and Genevieve?"
"We'll watch them," said a gentle voice behind them. Stanton turned around as Josephine looked past him. Serena was kneeling on the floor, hugging the toddlers close to her. A soft smile was placed on her lips.
"Thank you," Josephine said, walking over to her. Stanton watched as they exchanged hugs. "Just come back for them," Serena said, taking their hands.
Josephine nodded and turned back to Stanton."I'm ready."
Stanton went to her and hugged her close."We'll save them and I'll save you," he said, getting a little choked up. Josephine held him back, crying quietly. She guessed this was what she came to Los Angeles for. But putting that aside, she grabbed Stantonrquote s hand and nodded for him to go ahead with it. He smiled back at her before a dark portal appeared behind him. Josephine stared at it, a pit forming in her stomach. Stanton smiled at her.par par
"It's okay. It won't hurt. At least not as much as Catty's."
"Hey!" Catty huffed.
Josephine chuckled slightly as she looked back at them. Each daughter smiled and waved their farewells and Stanton and Josephine did the same. Taking a deep breath, Josephine turned to the portal. Stanton came up to the side of her. They stood side-by-side. The energy that was coming from the black void pushed back their hair, making it go everywhere.
"Ready?" Stanton asked, looking at her.
Josephine looked back at him."Sure as hell I am."
Smiling, they took each otherrquote s hands before stepping into the hole, falling through time.
