AN: I apologize for my absence. Real life got in the way and then my muse left, came back and rl happened again. Note to the guest reviewer who stated that this story was not about soulmates or rather that Ray and Quinn are not soulmates, with all due respect this is my story not yours. You of course are entitled to your opinion but perhaps next time send a pm and ask questions before posting a review showing that you no nothing about my story.

As always i own nothing but the plot. All mistakes are mine and mine alone.

Once the group was outside, Puck began to laugh softly while Santana cackled with unconstrained glee as both Quinn and Brittany gasped softly. Finn"s truck was completely crushed by a fallen tree limp. What caused the laughter from Santana and Puck was that when the limb crushed the truck it caused an explosion of glitter to explode out of the truck. Ray had rigged the air bags as well had managed to fill the tires with rainbow glitter and paint. The quarterback let a small smirk grace her lips knowing that her twin was going to want to know how she managed to rig the tires with that delicate balance of pressure. The area around Finn's now destroyed truck looked like a pride parade had happened, the downside was the cars next to the tall teen's vehicle were now covered in glitter. The upside was that the paint would wash off...eventually. Looking over Ray could see that with the second lightening strike she had caused in her anger at Finn, took out the schools transformer, the first lightening strike obviously hitting the tree limb that crushed Finn's truck.

"WHAT THE HELL?!" Was heard from across the parking lot as Finn neared his destroyed truck..

Ray full on smirked as Finn looked close to tears over the state of his vehicle. Ray avoided Brittany's gaze as she knew that the fey wouldn't approve of the destruction of Finn's truck. To be fair the engine could be salvaged and placed into another truck, Ray had already donated a full sized truck body to Burt's garage before school started as she had no use for it after stripping it down to the frame. Shrugging to herself she knew it would still take a few weeks before it could be up and running and only felt bad in regards to Kurt being stuck playing chauffer until the new truck was up and running. Finally all the teachers and students gathered in the parking lot as per the safety drills and procedures. After all students were accounted for, school buses began to pull in to take students home. As the small group of friends were mulling over what to do for the remainder of the day, Santana took a deep breath before turning to Ray.

"Berry, Can I talk to you for a minute?"

Ray turned to Brittany and at the fey's small nod, Ray turned back to face Santana.

"Yeah sure Lopez. I'm guessing you don't want an audience for this conversation, so lets take a walk."

The unlikely duo walked away from the parking lot in silence towards the football field. Once there Ray turned to the temperamental Latina.

"So what's up Lopez?" Ray asked in a bored tone.

"I um...shit. Look I wanted to apologize for being such a bitch. I also wanted to thank you for giving Quinn and her daughter a safe place and for helping realize as well as accepting who I am. If you hadn't spoken to my father, I wouldn't have been forced to be honest with my family and with myself." Santana paused for a moment and looked up at Ray, who had a blank expression on her face, before continuing. "Look I don't expect instant forgiveness and I normally don't do apologies, but after speaking with Britt, I realized that I owed you one at the very least. I'm a bitch, I don't apologize for that and I cant say I'll stop being one, but I will try to reign it in. I don't wan to lose Britt ever again. This last week has been hell, and I will do whatever it is that I have to in order to make it right."

Ray weighed the shorter girls words, tasting the truth in what was said bfore replying.

"You hurt her again by denying her, by denying what you are and what you feel for her, I will come after you Santana. I will make what's been happening and any future incidents that will happen to Finn, seem like a walk in the park. I'm not saying you have to be out and proud to the entire town or school, which just as an fyi, pretty much everyone knows that you ae a lesbian but either they don't care are too afraid to be asshats about it, Just don't ever hurt her again the way you have been." Santana nodded her understanding and Ray smiled softly before once again continuing. "Good. Now why don't you follow us back to the house so you can spend time with your girl. All will be explained at the house." Ray walked away from a confused Santana without waiting for a reply.

Santana watched as the Quarterback walked back over to the blonde dancer and smiled as her best friend gave a happy squeal at whatever Ray said to her and skipped her way over to Santana.

"I'm so happy and proud of you San. Ray just told me that you apologized and that you can come back to the house with us. I'll ride with you. Ray and Quinn are going to pick up Beth at daycare after they drop Quinn's car off at the house. Something about the engine or plugs, I don't remember, just that Quinn isn't taking it to Burt's because Finn works there."

Santana smiled softly at the rambling dancer. "Ok Britt-Britt. Lets go."

Santana followed the twins and Quinn back to the house. She sat in the driveway completely stunned by the sheer size of the house as Brittany giggled beside her. Brittany watched as Quinn removed Beth's car seat from her car and situate it in one of Ray's less flashier cars. Britt thought it may have been a Volkswagon. The Quarterback and the head cheerleader soon got in the car and drove away.

"C'mon San, there's a storm coming. Pull into the third garage door. Ray and Puck keep it empty for whenever guests come over." Santana nodded and followed the bubbly blonde's directions. Once out of the car Brit grabbed Santana's hand and led her into the house.

As Brittany showed Santana the house, Ray and Quinn pulled up to the daycare that Beth was at. Ray was still warring with her emotions so she took a moment to breathe and keep the thunderstorm at bay for a little while longer before getting out of the car. Ray followed behind Quinn and smiled as the littlest Fabray ran over to her mom. As Quinn filled in the facilitator of the most recent events, kids from the highschool came to pick younger siblings, cousins as well as nieces and nephews. Soon the trio made their way out to the car. Ray had given Quinn the keys, so the cheerleader could drive back to the house, leaving Ray to be able to concentrate on the storm. It was gong to hit the town as it was too late for Ray to send it off. Now she was focusing on making sure it didn't develop into a supercell storm. Ray was so distracted on her task that she failed to notice Quinn's panicked expression from inside the car when she was tapped on the shoulder. Turning around, Ray was met with a fist that snapped her head to the side. Growling lowly, Ray looks up to see Finn smirking at her. Giving the taller teen a vicious smile, Ray shrugs out of her letterman jacket and tossed it behind her, through the open car window.

"A sucker punch? Really? Fucking Pussy. Alright Hudson, lets dance you fucking coward."

Quinn watched in fearful awe as Ray traded blows with Finn and it looked like she was easily winning the fight. Finally having enough, Ray hit Finn hard enough to plant him on his ass. Assuming the fight was over, Ray made the mistake of turning her back on the taller teen. What she hadn't expected was for the former Quarterback to pull a switchblade on her. At the sound of the blade popping out, Ray began turning around and felt the blade slice a scorching path across her ribcage. Snarling Ray snapped her foot out, connecting Finn's causing the knife to fly out of his hand and break the already damaged cast. Ray quickly followed up with a spin kick to the moron's head, this time making sure to use enough force to knock him out. Ray palmed the blade and walked back to the car. Digging her cell out of her jacket she sent a text to both her brother and Kurt telling them about the fight. The message to Kurt was so that he could pick up his idiot stepbrother and the one to Puck was for him to help Kurt getting Finn's dumbass into the car. Without waiting for them to show up or reply, Ray got into the car with a wince and closed her eyes as it began to rain.

"I know you have questions, but please Quinn, lets just go home. I'll answer them later. Noah can patch me up once we get there."

Nodding Quinn started the car and drove them back to the house. Getting out of the car Ray walked out of the garage. Seeing Puck pull up the driveway in his truck, Ray let go of her control and the skies opened up in a torrential down pour complete with thunder and lightening. Ray used the cover of the rain to blur into the forest. Puck watched his sister run off knowing exactly where she was gong.

"Puck where did Ray go? She was here and she, she just vanished and she's bleeding."

"What! What do you mean she's bleeding Quinn? What the fuck happened?"

"Finn pulled a knife during the fight. The knife is in her jacket in the front seat."

Puck reached into the car and grabbed the knife. He could smell the vervain on the blade and cursed.

"Okay, I'll go get her. I'll need you to go into our dad's study and grab the first aid kit and bring into Ray's room. I'll be back in 10 minutes with her." With out waiting for a response, Puck rain out into the rain disappearing from view.
