Hey everyone! First of all sorry these are late. Work has turned into chaos again and I picked up two extra days this week so writing has been a problem. If there are slight errors I do apologise in advance. I finished this Thursday and haven't had a chance to look through it. Hope it's OK. Big thanks to everyone still on this trip and Lazytown2000, JanAndMaura05, Sweetkid45, Guest, PinkLady, Vbbneighbor and Printemps for the reviews.
Lots of love,

A New Family, a New Future-Part 24:
Louisa had slept most of the next morning and Angela and Hope were sat discussing things.
"How come you knew Sadie and Brian so well?" Angela asked, "I thought you were out of the country a lot…"
"Oh no just out of state but Paddy had wanted to see her but he couldn't risk leaving Boston and someone else taking over his spot as top man so I kept him informed on Louisa as she grew up," Hope explained as she sipped her coffee, "things became more complicated when Cailin arrived but I took her with me…"
"So Louisa and Cailin know each other…?" Angela asked.
"They were too little, they won't remember," Hope said instantly, "both were below the age of five and you know how much life changes for them."
"That's very true. Jane had a new friend every week, I gave up trying to remember names in the end because it was always changing, sometimes even twice a week."
"Have you notice how she's acting more like Jane and Maura?" Angela asked as she looked at Louisa asleep, mascots in her arms.
"Oh yes. She basically sounded like a Wikipedia just before we left and then when I mentioned it she just rolled her eyes like Jane does," Hope said, "I mean I do want her to be like Maura more than Jane. I pity Maura if those two ever came to blows."
Angela burst out laughing,
"Now even I wouldn't want to be around if that happened and I raised her and those brothers of hers. She always was the tomboy of them all."
Hope smiled softly before thinking,
"Who do you think Louisa looks more like? Brian or Sadie?" she asked.
"Neither if I had to be honest," Angela said, "she doesn't really look like either of them but then again I haven't looked closely at any photos of them to be honest. If I had them maybe I'd have a better chance at seeing who she looks like more."
"I'll find you a photo later but we'd better wake her up so we can get to Disney," Hope said before finding that Louisa was already up and in the shower, "yes she's certainly like Maura," she laughed before she began to make sure everything was in the cases ready.
Louisa hadn't been told where they were going and she screamed so loudly when she realised where they were and she looked at Angela,
"How?"
"The perks of having Jane and Maura so high up in the police department is that you can pull a few strings when you have to," Angela said before they pulled up at the VIP area and then came another scream as Louisa flew out of the car and straight over to Jane and Maura.
"Surprise kid! Day trip to Disney!" Jane said as she swung the teenager around and then Maura placed some Belle themed ears on Louisa's head before the other three caught up.
Frankie watched before heading up to his sister and looked at her,
"Got your gun?"
"Locked and loaded. You?"
"Same," Frankie said before he followed as Maura had begun to lead Louisa inside.
Instantly there were gasps and Louisa began to relax after the tension of the past couple of days and she smiled and looked around to see what was going on everywhere before she spotted someone and gasped. Jane instantly nodded and Louisa ran over and waited before she was finally approached.
"Louisa right? I'm…"
"Belle!" Louisa said before she threw her arms around the princess and hugged her.
"I hear I'm someone's favourite princess," Belle said smiling.
"Yes you are!" Louisa said, "you always have been."
"Well I hear that you have been a brave girl for so long now so come with me and I'll show you something," the princess said before Louisa checked where Jane and Maura were before she nodded and allowed Belle to lead her away somewhere that was clearly planned for a tea party, "well…?"
"Is this for us?" Louisa asked and Belle nodded before the characters from the movie appeared and sang Be Our Guest and then the tea was served.
"Can you three watch her? Jane is clearly dying to show me something," Maura said.
"We got this," Frankie said before Jane dragged Maura away causing Angela to raise an eyebrow at the other mother before sitting down on the bench.
Louisa began to tell Belle about the things she'd been through and everything that Jane and Maura had done for her before Belle said it was time for the parade to start. The princess made sure that Louisa had a good view before Louisa thanked her for the tea party and then Belle went.
The parade music started and Jane and Maura had slipped in behind Louisa and recorded the parade so Louisa could watch it back in Boston. The couple watched as the princesses all waved at her as they went by on their floats. It was the happiest Jane and Maura had seen her in ages and they were happy that she was happy.
Eventually Maura told Louisa that it was time to head to the airport and Louisa understood and then she went to the shop and brought a few things before the whole group got into the car and headed to the airport. They checked in fine and then had a little bit of time so the group went and got a bite to eat before they boarded the plane.
Louisa had lucidly fallen asleep as Jane soon began to notice something was up and she looked at Frankie and nodded before the two went over to a cabin crew member and asked to speak to the captain. They showed their badges and were instantly shown to the flight deck.
"Detectives Jane and Frankie Rizzoli. Why are we diverting?" Jane asked as she and Frankie flashed their badges.
"Sorry detectives but this plane will not be going back to Boston tonight. Your boss has been in touch. There is a gang war going on and we are diverting to New York until it is safe for you to return," the captain said, "where are you sitting?" Jane told them and the captain promised to notify them of any changes. Jane thanked the captain before heading back with Frankie p. Both wondering the same thing. What the hell was going on in Boston…?
