Hey all sorry it has taken me so long to write. Between work and starting my classes and trying to get into nursing school I haven't had a lot of free time. I promise to try and keep up.

Marguerite couldn't take it anymore. She had to find out the entire truth about this pendent and how it was related to her. She knew if she told the others that they would want to go on this little path of discovery but she knew if she was to learn anything of importance she had to go by herself.

Dinner to Marguerite seemed like a subdued moment. No one was really talking and all she could think of was how she was going to leave without making anyone suspicious. When she looked up she found a pair of worried green eyes on her.

"Roxton, why are you looking at me like that?"

"Just trying to figure out what is going on in that head of yours. For these last few weeks you have been distant and quiet and for you that is very odd."

"I've just had a lot to think about lately. You know since I passed out inside that cave when you all found me." She noticed that everyone had stopped eating to listen to what she and Roxton had been talking about.

"Yeah marguerite, since then you have acted a little distant. It was strange when you called me Victoria." Veronica said. Marguerite just shrugged if off.

"I thought I was somewhere else is all. Now if you will excuse me I think I will head off to bed.

"I sure hope she gets out of this funk soon. I don't think I like this Marguerite." Ned explained.

Later that night.....

Marguerite peeked her head around the living area and kitchen. No one was up. "Good. At least they won't try to stop me." She looked at the pendent around her neck. "You obviously mean something to me, and I intend to find out what." She tried her best to leave as quietly as she could but the elevator was as loud as could be. When she was safely at the bottom she looked up at her home of the last three years and with a trebly voice said "Goodbye my friends. I pray that this journey doesn't end with me in the tummy of a dinosaur or in a different time." And with that she made her way back to the cave that seemed to have started it all......

The tree house.....

Roxton was the first one to notice that Marguerite wasn't in her bed. He thought it would be best to check on her but when he did he saw that her bed hadn't been slept in. He searched frantically for her but when he couldn't find her he woke everyone else up.

"Everyone get in here!" When his sleepy companions emerged he immediately began to ask them if they knew where Marguerite was. When none of them knew they went in search of a note. Finn found it.

"I got it." Roxton roughly snatched it from her hands and began to read.....

"My dear friends, how am I to explain why I have taken off in the middle of the night. Since my experience in the cave I have been having these strange dreams. Actually to say they started then would be a lie for I have had this dreams many times in the past. They seemed to intensify with the discovery of my pendent. I must find out why the pendent came into my possession and why these dreams seem to haunt me. I ask that you not follow me no matter how much you wish to do so. This is something I must complete on my own. I only ask that you wish me luck and pray for my safe return which I hope to have. I love you all very much. You are the family I have always wished to have and for that I am grateful to you all. Keep safe and take care. Marguerite.

When he was finished Veronica and Finn both had tears in theirs eyes. Although none of them like it, especially Roxton, they honored her wishes.

"She'll be fine. She's strong and confident. Don't worry, she'll be fine." Challenger stated. Roxton just started out over the valley and prayed that he was right.

Out in the jungle.....

It took Marguerite the better part of the week to finally reach her destination. When she finally did she felt a since of relief and peace. This place was oddly familiar and felt safe. When she got to the cave opening she wrapped her pendent in her hand and squeezed. "Well, its now or never." With that she entered.

Inside were old Celtic markings some which her hard to cipher due to being there so long. It was lit very well yet there were no torches. She made her way down into the heart of the cave and noticed that in the center of a vast room was a huge vat of crystal clear water. Curious she leaned over and peered in. What she saw made her gasp. It was her but dressed differently in blue and purple robes and she had a crescent moon tattooed on her head. She reached up as if to touch it, "The sign of the goddess." She murmured. She stumbled back and looked around for the indention in the wall where her pendent fit. When she found it she placed it there and instead of being shocked as she had the last time she found herself being transported through time and space. Still knowing who she was she found her self in a beautiful room which looked to belong inside a temple.

"Where the hell am I?" She asked herself as she looked around.

"In Avalon, Morrigan. You are home at last." Said a woman with flowing black hair.

Marguerite continued to stare at her then looked at herself. She was dressed in the same clothing as the woman in the water. She looked at The woman in front of her. Recongnition came into her grey eyes.

"Vivianne!" She ran to the woman and embraced her.

"Morrigan, do not be afraid to learn of your past." She whispered in her ear, "Embrace it, cherish it and you will find all the answers you need."

"I will do my best, milady. Where must I start?" Morrigan asked.

"You must start with this day. The day you are to wed." Vivianne left then with a shocked Morrigan starring at her.

"Wed? Oh, maybe I should have stayed
