*Nick's sister is finally reveled! Enjoy!*
"Whoa." Rex, Potato Head, Hamm, and Slinky all said together.
"There are a lot of toys here." Trixie said, looking around.
"And there's more where that came from, which is why we have to get back out there. Rey said. Come, we'll get you settled in. How many of you are injured?"
"Five of us have minor injuries, but my brother, he's hurt really bad." Jessie said. Buzz took Woody down from Buttercup's back. The cowboy was still unconscious in the space rangers arms. Rey gasped.
"Oh no. Leia! Poe! We need a trauma bay now!" A woman in a dark cloak and a man wearing a x-wing flight suit came running over. Leia checked him over.
"His injuries are extensive. He'll need a full work up. Take him over to trauma bay two, will you, Rey?" Rey nodded as a team of toys brought over a gurney. They placed Woody on it and ran off. Leia turned to Poe. "Go get Tori. She'll see to it that you all get treated." Nick blinked a few times, thinking he misheard her.
"Hold on, did you say Tori? Does she have light golden blonde hair and blue eyes?"
"Yes. She's the one who found this place. Poe said. She lead a bunch of toys here and turned it into a shelter for toys. On one of her runs to look for more survivors, she got injured. Now she kind of is overseeing things. Hey, Tori!" A small girl turned to look at him. She wore a blue short sleeve shirt and Jean's and her arm was in a sling. She glanced at Nick before putting a hand to her mouth.
"Nick? Nicky!" She screamed, running to him. He met her half way and wrapped her up in a tight hug.
"Tori. Oh Tori. I missed you so much!" He turned to Rosetta. "Rose, this is my sister." Rosetta looked at her and immediately went still. Flashes of images filled her mind, all of them including Tori, her becoming a strong, independent person. Nick was with her too. In fact, all of the images including Nick and Tori interacting with her and Owen. Oh my god. Is this what mom was talking about? It's amazing! She thought. She snapped out of it and smiled at Tori.
"Pleased to finally meet you, Tori. Your brother has been looking everywhere for you." She said.
"I've been looking for him too. When I arrived, I was so anxious to find you that I lead a team to help me. I found tons of survivors, but none of them were you. On one of my last runs not too long ago, I tripped and fell over a broken tree trunk and tore apart my arm. They fit me with a replacement and told me to keep the sling on until I get a good feel for it."
"I'm sorry to hear that. Thank goodness it was a minor injury. There's much more I need to tell you, but right now, Rosetta and her family need some attending too." Nick said.
"Of course. Those of you with injuries, follow me. I'll get you set up in one of our triage rooms. The rest of you, there are beds over in that corner if you need to rest."

Midnight came and Rey and Finn had come back from their search for survivors for the night. Rosetta had seen them come in from her triage bed. Her hand had just been reattached with glue and she was waiting for the glue to dry. She sighed heavily as the events of the day had started to set in. She lost her mom today. Her second mother was gone and was now lying in a small grave in the ground. Rosetta tried to hold it together, but the longer she tried, the harder it became. Holding her charm tight in her good hand, she let the tears fall again. Silently, she prayed that her father would be okay. He was still being take care by the surgical team. She jumped when there was a small knock on the wall.
"Oh! Sorry. Didn't mean to scare you. Tori said. May I join you for a bit?"
"Oh yes, of course." Rosetta said, moving over and wiping her eyes. "How are my friends?"
"Slinky is resting, Buttercup's horn was sewn back on, Rex now has two brand new claws, and your uncles knee is all buffed out. How's your hand?"
"It's good. Regained feeling, just waiting for the glue to dry. How is my father?"
"Last I heard they were putting in the last of new stuffing in and stitching up one of his sides. He should be in recovery soon." Rose sighed with relief and put down her charm. Tori looked at it. "That's a beautiful necklace."
"Thanks. It's my mothers." She felt the tears coming on again. "I mean, it was my mothers. She didn't make it. She succumbed to her injuries."
"I'm so sorry, Rosetta. I know how you feel. Nick told me about our parents. My heart broke when he said he woke up and saw them lying there. I can't imagine what he was feeling."
"It's hard to lose a parent. This is the second time I've lost a mom." Tori looked at her confused. "I lost my real mom to a house fire. My adoptive mom, Bo Peep, she was severely injured due to a mudslide."
"Oh my god. That's awful. Losing one mom is hard, but two? That's horrible."
"Yeah it is. But it's okay. She's at peace now. She did what she had to do to make sure my father was safe, and she got to be with all of us before she took her last breath. I'm happy knowing she died surrounded by the people she loved most."
"Nick told me you saved him from that creek. Thank you for that. I feel so guilty for getting separated from him. When I found this place, I was so anxious to find him and our parents. That's why I lead that search team. My dad had always told us that we should help others in anyway we could. So I did what I could while looking for them. I wanted to be a hero in my family's eyes."
"You are, Tori. You found and helped tons of survivors while also searching for them. Not only that, but you turned this place into a shelter for lost toys. Your parents would be so proud of you, and I'm sure your brother is too. You are a hero to them, Tori." She smiled.
"Thank you, Rosetta." Poe came running in, making them both look up.
"Victoria, more survivors are coming in."
"Alright, I'll be there in a minute." Poe left and she turned to Rose. "I'll be back, but please call for me if you need anything." She turned to leave when Rosetta spoke up.
"Victoria? That's your full name?"
"Yeah, Victoria Marie. Be right back." She went out of the room as Owen entered.
"Hey. He said kissing her forehead. How are you doing?" Rosetta stared off in the distance, a wide smile spreading across her face. "Sweetheart, are you there?" She turned to face him.
"My mom told me when she first met me she experienced something called the look. She told him. She said when she looked at me she saw images of me growing up, and being with her and dad. She knew by that one look that I was the perfect daughter for her. I just experienced something like that with Tori. When we first met her, I saw images in my mind of her growing up and being with us. And get this, her full name is Victoria. That was moms middle name. How strange is that?" Owen looked at her, smiling. "What? What is it?"
"Oh nothing. It's just, I had the same experience with Nick when we met him at the creek. I saw the life he could have with us. Now that I've met his sister too, I see both of them, with us, as our kids."
"They are every bit of us. Kind, brave, and willing to do anything for the ones they love, not to mention bold, daring and fierce. I know we only just met them, but Owen, I like them, I want to take care of them."
"As do I, my dear. We should get to know them more, but I think it's safe to say we may have found our future children." Rosetta beamed and kissed him. She couldn't wait to tell her father. Oh how she prayed that he was okay.
*They found their kids! Yay! I'll explain why I choose the name Victoria in the next chapter. In other news, I completelyforgot that this year marked ten years since TS3 came out. So...with that being said, I was considering taking my TS3 revamped story and redoing it to include Rosetta, since I did kind of a time jump in 'A family reunited.' Would you guys want a redo of that story, or should I leave it since I had Lotso try to torture them in Family reunited? Let me know. I value ya'lls opinions!*
