After taking a shower for the second time that day Lexx finally made her way downstairs. She had put on a pair of black jeans and a green tank top that matched her eyes this time. She slowly walked into the bar area and was almost tackled by Simi.

"Where you been Lexx, you make the Simi wait for you. The Simi wanted to see Lexx." Simi hugged Lexx and then finally let her go.

"It's nice to see you too Simi." Lexx said laughing. Simi could be quite a handful sometimes. "Is Ash with you?" Lexx didn't even want to think of the last time Ash had let Simi come to the Sanctuary by herself.

"Akri is talking to Vane." Simi replied as she walked along side Lexx.

Lexx made her way to the bar and saw Vane was working there today instead of being a bouncer which was his usual job. Ash was on a bar stool conversing with him, if that's what you could call what Ash does. He usually just pops up when something is going to happen, and then everybody in the bar scatters. Thanks to Ash the whole place was just about empty except for a select few regulars and the staff.

"I see you caused our business to go sour again Ash, as usual." She said with the attitude she had been missing for a few weeks.

Acheron turned his head and looked straight at her. "I see Simi found you, she was going nuts. I think it was her who actually drove everyone away this time instead of me."

Lexx shrugged, she looked over at Simi who was giving Ash a glare. "I'd be careful Ash, Simi looks in the mood for barbecue." Lexx couldn't help but smile at the look she got from Ash. "Oh come on you know I was kidding."

Ash gave her one of his studious glares, he seemed to be trying to figure something out about her. "There's something different about you, but I can't quite put my finger on it."

Vane decided to speak up at that point. "She has Remi's scent all over her, like she bathed in it." Vane then gave her a glare of his own. "You had sex with him didn't you?"

Lexx's cheeks turned a bright red. She glanced up at him with a 'don't be mad at me' look.

Vane sighed and put down the glass he had been cleaning. "I told you Lexx not to get involved with him; you're only going to get hurt. Even Aimee told you to stay away from him. Why don't you ever listen?" Vane was trying to control his anger but all he wanted to do was strangle Remi. Lexx had been like his little sister since she had begun living at Sanctuary. She reminded him so much of own sister that he had lost.

Lexx's shameful feelings lasted for about two seconds. "You know what Vane, I don't have to listen to you. If I want to have sex with Remi then I will, I'll have sex with whatever man I want. I'm twenty-one years old you have no power over me!" Lexx turned to leave.

Vane was suddenly in front of her and had her by the shoulders. "I may have no power over you but I know what's best for you and Remi is not it. Why couldn't you find some human man to sleep with, someone who can control his temper and would never hurt you?"

Lexx pulled out of Vane's grip and slapped him across the face. "Remi never would hurt me! He cares about me! That's all I ever wanted, why can't I be happy!" Lexx ran from the room and out the front door trying to hold back her tears. She heard Simi threatening to make Vane into barbeque as she got further from the building.

Lexx had no idea where she was going, all she knew was she had to get away. Before she knew it she as at the cemetery that her grandmother was laid to rest in. Lexx made her way through the forest of mausoleums, until she came to stand in front of her family crypt. It was where all of the females in her family were buried, she didn't know why only women were here. Lexx sat on the front steps of the mausoleum and put her head in her hands. She could no longer stop her tears; they came out silently at first and then turned into sobs. All she could think about was why no one wanted her to be happy. Since the day she had been born she was surrounded by negative emotions, her father had always hated her for her mother's death. She had always felt safe with her grandmother which was why she was her at her family crypt, she could feel her grandmother's presence whenever she as here and it comforted her.

Lexx looked up as a mist began to flow out of the crypt and surround her. She had no idea what was happening, and it scared the crap out of her. All of a sudden Lexx felt so sleepy, she couldn't fight it. She fell into a deep sleep right there on the steps, and began to dream.

Lexx looked around at the room she was in, it was a room in her grandmothers old house. It held portraits of all the women in her family, each one looking powerful and beautiful. Lexx looked to the door when it opened. A younger version of her grandmother came walking into the room toward her.

"Do not be afraid child, I won't hurt you. My how you've grown, you're as beautiful as your mother was. But I did not bring you here to reminisce in memory. It is your twenty first birthday and it is time." Her grandmother spoke to her as she opened a book that sat on a podium in the center of the room.

"Time for what? Why am I here grandma? What's going on?" Lexx was confused beyond belief, but she was no longer afraid.

"It is time for you to know your true potential, to know what you posses deep inside of you. The women in our family have held great power for many years; it is passed down to each daughter on her twenty first birthday. You come from a long line of witches my dear, not the evil enchantresses you have read about and seen in movies. But we are one with the earth and we can mold its elements to our needs. You are no longer human my dear, for you have something different from the rest of us."

Lexx gave her grandmother a questioning look. "What is it?" The moment Lexx asked that question she felt a burning sensation in her palm that turned excruciating. She looked down at her palm to see a symbol appear on her skin, an invisible force was branding it into her palm. She held her palm up to her grandmother.

"You have a Katagaria mate my child, and when you bind with him you will be immortal. But be cautious my dear, this power cannot be taken lightly. We were hunted down and killed for a reason. Some of us could not control our power and brought the death upon ourselves."

Lexx's grandmother approached her with the book she held. "This book contains all of the memories of your ancestors. Including your mothers. These memories will guide you and show you how to use your powers and how not to. But you will not learn everything at once. This power is a blessing and a curse. Use it wisely."

Suddenly Lexx's grandmother placed her right hand over Lexx's heart. Lexx felt a white hot sensation begin to move through her body, she tried not to fight it but it was the most painful experience she had ever had. Lexx let out a scream and deftly heard her grandmother speak.

"Take care young Alexandria, and make us all proud. You are our only hope."
