A/n: Well, after a trillion updates today, I'm sad to say, this is the FINAL chapter! :( :( It's short and sweet, really just a little epilogue of sorts to wrap things up. Be on the lookout for a sequel which will be coming out maybe in a week or so (I have another story I'd like to work on as well before I start a new one).

Thank you to all of you who have faithfully reviewed every chapter! Your support meant so much to me!

(Two Days Later)

"Okay girls, I know it's scary, but I promise, you are going to love this new home."

Sasha, Bayley, Charlotte, and Becky all looked out the window of John's car, staring at the house in front of them.

A lot had happened in the span of 48 hours. The girls were removed from their home, their parents were arrested, all four of them were taken to a hospital to be examined. Becky had needed a small surgery to remove fluid build up in her abdomen.

The media had gone nuts over the story. The girls couldn't even leave the DCS building without being inundated with newspaper reporters and media outlet. The whole thing was extremely overwhelming, especially for Sasha and Bayley, who were still so young in all of this.

Sasha refused to talk to anybody other than her sisters. And even then, she hardly spoke. Charlotte had hoped that being removed from the home would help Sasha, but it only seemed to make things worse. She had woken up both nights from nightmares, crying and screaming for Charlotte and Becky. Even with Charlotte holding her in her sleep, reassuring her that they were safe now. Nothing seemed to be working. John had told them that it was going to take time for all of them to recover. Charlotte knew that. Becca knew that. They were just worried about the lasting effects on Sasha and Bayley.

Bayley seemed oblivious to the whole thing, too young to truly understand what had happened. She was just happy that they didn't have chores to do anymore or that she could sleep in or play with toys all day. It brought a smile to both Becca and Charlotte's face as they watched their little sister start to enjoy childhood, even just a little bit.

"You ready?" asked John, opening the back door, watching as the girls piled out of the car. John grabbed the two suitcases that held some clothing for each of them, Sasha gripping onto Charlotte's leg, Becky picking Bayley up in her arms as they all walked hesitantly towards the house.

A new beginning.

A new start.

And hopefully, no more hiding the truth behind closed doors.
