Chapter 3
One Bad, One Good

Lorelai, Sookie, Michel, and a police officer are standing outside of The Independence Inn

Police officer: OK. You can go inside but be careful were you step.

Lorelai: Thanks...ok here goes :Opens the entrance door to the inn:

The scene that's is in front of them all puts them in shock. The once beautiful place were Lorelai really grew up was now covered in blackness

"Oh my god" A familiar voice to all of them says

The trio turn around to see Mia standing in the doorway with an unreadable expression on her face

Lorelai: Mia, im so sorry..:She walks up to her and gives her a hug and can feel the tears in here eyes just waiting to spill over:

Mia: Wow, I got here as soon as I heard last night I did not imagine al this : She waves her hands to what's left of the inn:

Sookie: Mia we no how much you loved this inn, we all did im so sorry : hugs Mia:

Mia: Im sorry too..., Well I talked to the officer outside and he says there is no way we can reopen without getting the whole place rebuilt so I guess im just going to have to sell the property.

Lorelai: You cant you love this place so much we can help rebuild it and make it what it once was

Mia: How about we leave here and discuss this over lunch at Luke's

Lorelai and Sookie: OK

Michel: I think I am just going to stay here for alittle while: of course in his French accent:

Sookie: ok but if you need anything you know where to find us ok?

Michel: ok

Luke's diner

They all sit at a table

Lorelai: I'll be right back, just have to use the bathroom: she walks slowly to the counter and Luke catches her eyes and her can see the pain and hurt:

Luke follows Lorelai in the back and she is sitting on the ground in the store room with her head in her hands

Luke: hey

Lorelai:Sniffles: Hey

Luke walks over to her and get down on his knees and hugs her tight

Lorelai: You should have seen it, its gone my home is gone and Mia is selling it

Luke: im so sorry,...wait Mia when did you talk to her

Lorelai: she came to the inn to see the damage she is sitting at a table outside with Sookie, What am I going to do?

Luke:Still hugging her and kisses her forehead: Dont worry you will get through this and I will be at your side the whole time. Maybe this is your chance to open you own inn with Sookie like you always wanted.

Lorelai:not crying as much: I guess I didn't think about that

Luke: I am here don't worry ok everything will be alright... you might want to get back there before they wonder what happened to you.

Luke stands up and Lorelai follows

Lorelai:Wipes her eyes: Yea i guess...thank you I don't know what I would do without you here

Luke kisses her

Luke: you don't have to worry about that now go : points her out the room:

Lorelai walks over to the table

Mia and Sookie notices Lorelai's red and swollen eyes

Mia: You were gone a long time

Lorelai: yea...umm...just don't feel too good

Mia: o ok...Well I actually came to talk to you guys about something.Latley I have been thinking about selling the Independence Inn but I never wanted to because you guys were so comfortable there but now with the fire I think its time but I have something for you girls.

Mia goes into her purse and finds a piece of paper and hands it to the girls

Lorelai and Sookies eyes go wide

Lorelai: Mia you own the old Dragon Fly Inn?

Mia: Yes, I bought it a few years back from Fran, and I started thinking about how you girls always wanted to open you inn and now you can all you have to do is say yes

Sookie: Mia there's so much more to it how are we going to find the money to buy it from you

Mia: Sookie, this is not an offer this is a gift and I want you guys to have it you are now the owners of the Dragon Fly Inn, I have many inns back in California and I want you dreams to come true so please take this

Lorelai: I ...don't know what to say

Mia: Say nothing just take it and turn it into your dream

Lorelai and Sookie both get up and hug Mia tightly

Mia Laughs

Lorelai and Sookie: Thank you!

Mia: well since business is done lets eat

Lorelai: I can deal with that

She smiles, and thinks even thought one bad thing happened she can't help but feel happy because something really good happened to
