Morning came and the Light Fae compound was bustling with activity.

Mia and Kendra met with Jane and Maura and no action was necessary. Mia planned to stay who she was and steer clear of her past connections to crime families.

Maura noted that Kendra and Mia made a great team and oddly enough a couple. She still had to wonder to herself if Kendra was in a polygamous relationship. From outward appearances Mia and Kendra looked like good friends, but Maura could tell otherwise when she caught glimpses of them in smaller settings. Mia, every now and then went googley eyed and fawned over Kendra in private and Kendra accepted it openly.

As for Fringe and the BPD, they caught up with cases over breakfast. They took several hours to talk things through since although they ran into each other in Boston, they didn't really work together.

Bo and Tamsin had to snicker at the security team and Peter. They all looked tired and a little hung over. For Peter, 2 against one was a little unfair. For the security team, at least they were 'satisfied' and they had no idea why.

Drake and Alex woke up and then joined everyone else late and all knew why. Alex did some yoga stretches when she could without being too obvious. Bo knew that by Alex doing that, Drake must have dominated her aggressively last night.

Olivia and Jane were able to build some sort of bridge and Jane kind of understood in what field Fringe was working in better.

Jane felt that Maura was right. SOMETHING was off about this rag tag crew led by what seemed to be Bo and then maybe Trick. They were a family which she could plainly see, but they were different.

She had other things to think about however like Maura who hung on her all morning when no one was looking. She was all professional otherwise which kept Jane in her comfort zone.

Jane didn't regret anything but was getting used to being an item with her best friend and honorary family member.

Bo and Tamsin met with Olivia and Jane to find and apprehend Massimo if seen and to inform them of any drug cartel or major gang related activities in their area.

Fringe and BPD finally left and they were now intimately connected to the Fae world in one way or another.

Maura promised she would shield Jane from the Fae world until she was ready to know about it and keep it a secret in addition.

Trick left for ash business but Bo made sure to address everyone else about her stance on fate without going into detail for those that did not perish.

Tamsin was proud of Bo. She was a natural born leader and she made a rousing and moving speech to all to prepare for what was coming. Bo's final and best line was:

"If fate has the fucking guts to try to take ANY of you away from me, fate will PAY. We will NOT fade quietly into the night. We are not lambs for the slaughter. We may be the hunted, but you will have to EARN your fucking keep and in the end this victory will cost you dearly. Fate will think twice after we show him what we are capable of and in the end I swear to all of you, fate can win several battles, but I win the war."

With that she was able to bring everyone back to the table and march to the beat of a single drum. The solution Bo proposed was simple.

Hunt down Massimo relentlessly while hitting his drug manufacturing and distribution outlets. Also in tandem, freeze his accounts and seize his assets. If Massimo was good at hiding, Bo planned to starve him out and cut him off at the legs then work her way up.

Bo, Tamsin observed, was dead serious with hate brewing over. She WANTED Massimo to suffer. She was going to set the cadence of the game and take total control.

That meant that Kendra, Mia and the 69th needed to train for an all-out war since it looked like they'd be taking on Fae yet again.

Kendra had bigger problems though when she got a text message from Anjali that read:

'See you at the calendar shoot. I think I'm going to be March. You?'

Kendra shook her head and texted back, 'Dunno'

'Take December and save the best for last and maybe do it with Mia too.'

It looked like she'd have to do this any way to get the team financing for more hardware but Mia always did her best to comfort her.

Kendra needed Mia's help in this area. She knew she wasn't quite model material and that is why she didn't want to do it and it was also the reason why she mentioned she'd do it if Anjali, did who had acid burns on her face. She never knew Anjali was that secure about her body.

Bo didn't want to leave Arin out, so Arin would train with them as well but also thought about the future and made sure that Kenzi and Lauren had more one on one time with her as her surrogate. If fate was on course, Arin needed as much time with Kenzi and Lauren as she could muster.

Kenzi meanwhile kept approaching Tamsin with names for the baby in person or via text message, all of which she rejected. It got so bad, that Kenzi would just interject a name mid conversation on a totally different topic. This annoyed Tamsin to no end but she at least considered them for a couple milliseconds.

In any case with time not on their side, it was time for the rubber to hit the road.

2 weeks later

It became a custom at the 39th for Alex to give status reports informally to Kendra and Mia in the late evenings while at the precinct gym which ultimately flowed into the locker rooms. Alex got what she needed in terms of direction but also, as Mia promised a clandestine and unobstructed view of her body. It wasn't sexual by any means but a promise was a promise. Kendra of course knew this and hence tried to stay out of sight and Alex also tried not to look at her but it was unavoidable when more serious matters came up. Kendra just hoped that Alex would be able to control her thoughts and fantasies when Drake connected to Alex's thoughts when they were intimate.

Kendra now trusted Mia enough to lead her team during her soon to be extended absences because she turned out to be a beast leading raids.

They had taken down 12 illegal drug manufacturing facilities in 2 weeks and it was Mia that found it more effective to split the team to hit certain places simultaneously. Bo and Kenzi at times joined in on the raids to augment their numbers. Drake and Alex were always there as well and they not only made a great team but integrated well with the 69th.

Kendra found that she woefully underestimated Mia. Even with only half the team and fire fights breaking out occasionally she was able to hold it together and make prudent and hard decisions correctly. Hump Day made sure to inform Kendra how talented she was.

Did Mia hesitate on making decisions now? No.

Kendra also noticed that something clicked in Mia. It was if her personality was now free as a butterfly. She got along better with her team, the 69th, and she didn't need her looks as much. Kendra also noticed that she toned them down a little and took less time in front of the mirror in the AM.

Kendra actually liked waking up in the morning entangled in Mia; sometimes clothed sometimes not. She still missed Dyson but at least she didn't wake up alone. Mia was an earlier riser and Kendra never told her that she relished watching Mia get dressed in front of her after she showered. Kendra always pretended to get a little more shut eye. The nice thing was that men still drooled all over her but she knew exactly what Mia wore and looked like underneath all her clothing.

Mia knew that Kendra had to go back to Dyson and worked quickly to take down these drug rings. Some were related to each other, some were Massimo's to a degree, and others were just small time operators. She cherished the fact that Kendra let her lead and even took orders from her. Mia actually had fun working with Kendra and still blushed every time she had the thought of giving her God Father an informal update over the phone.

Reason being was that last time Kendra made sure to distract her with her wiles with an improvised lap dance and strip on the last call over dinner. Kendra also went down on her and Mia almost didn't make it. She made sure to hang up quickly and dominate Kendra furiously afterwards. Who was better?

Mia.

Kendra had no choice but to allow it but was also a quick learner.

Kendra resisted Mia with everything she had and Mia was still able to own her. It resulted in Kendra using a little more unconventional means of escape using illegal moves in the cage but this was real life.

Mia for her part was always in awe of how Kendra adapted and cherished rolling on the ground with her in training. Kendra put it best when she mentioned that it was the only legal way Mia could get her hands on Kendra's tight toned body.

She also noted that she no longer craved to be the center of attention and now the press was actually getting a little annoying.

Mia also had to shield Kendra from the press. She found it quite amusing that Kendra ran away from press and pictures but could face impending doom just fine.

Rumors spread like wild fire that Kendra and her were working together and tabloids exploited every chance they had to get a picture of them together. It became customary for Kendra to hide in the back seat of the Expedition going to and from work but lucky for Kendra, Mia always used the garage entrances at the precinct and at Dyson's apartment complex.

Mia had to let Kendra know that by avoiding press and pictures, rumors were abound that Kendra was demoted and forced to work for Mia grudgingly. Other rumors stated the Kendra was actually cross training Mia to be better at her job.

Kendra had, Mia brooded, inadvertently fueled the notion that they hated each other. The calendar shoot they were about to do would be PERFECT.

Mia tried to get her ready for it but to no avail. Kendra was good at stalling on that too but it had to be done and Kendra knew that too.

Tamsin trained Kendra's team and also added Bo, Kenzi, Arin and Lauren into the mix.

For Arin, she seemed to remember most of her moves and that was impressive Tamsin noted. That meant that Arin remembered everything from her former lives and it looked like she remembered that Lauren was hers. Arin of course did her best to stay far away from those feelings since she was just a kid. Tamsin had to give Arin credit, she had good mentors when it came to dealing with her feelings. She had Bo, Lauren and Kenzi to guide her.

Tamsin noted how focused Kenzi was on her training and Dimitri assisted her. He was her best friend and for a loner like Kenzi, it was refreshing she had someone to lean on. Kenzi wanted to avenge Hale but that still didn't stop her from spewing out names for Tamsin's baby much to Tamsin's dissatisfaction.

Now Bo was something else Tamsin observed. She was unstoppable. She may be a succubus, but her fighting skills along with her marksmanship grew by leaps and bounds. A creature that could neither find true love or fight, a succubus, was able to do both. That is what Tamsin loved about Bo. She was the exception to the rule and never defined by her species.

Bo found that Tamsin's method of teaching her how to handle her rifle was great. She learned to control her breathing and keep her movements slow, deliberate and calculated. Tamsin taught her how to fire from different positions such standing, kneeling and prone.

The hardest part was Tamsin purposefully distracting her, Bo surmised. Scaring her was one thing but most of the time Tamsin made sure her eyes turned neon blue every time before her shot.

When Bo got good, Tamsin would stand behind Bo and undo her tight leather pants surreptitiously snaking her arms around her then sliding her hand into home base working her folds and arch until she could no longer concentrate. Other times, Tamsin would undo her vest her unsnap her bra and make her take the shot while pinching and rolling her firm tips. Sometimes both and being in a small police shooting stall at the range drove her in insane not being able to crest and scream.

From the prone position, Tamsin just used her telekinetic powers and stroked Bo in all the right places until she reached the stars. Bo always had to have a change of leather pants in the locker room because Tamsin just drove her crazy.

After being dominated often by Tamsin for missing the target, Bo finally got her shot in mid crest and then quickly tackled Tamsin ordering her to strip and satisfy her. Tamsin had no choice since Bo activated the thrall but Tamsin knew Bo needed a reward and she also knew payback was coming sooner or later. Finally she wanted Bo to dominate her anyway.

It was always nice to end a hard day of training with a shower.

At precinct 39, Bo and Tamsin would often just take one stall and at times Kendra and Mia would take another. As for Alex, she was a dare devil, after she briefed Kendra and Mia on events of the day as needed, she snuck into the men's locker room and shared a shower with Drake.

Drake was surprised that Alex was that wild with her imagining plenty to Mia Tate without cloths and to his surprise the other women like Tamsin, Bo and Kendra in various stages of undress although unintentional when he read her mind. He never felt so drained in his life.

Alex got a new lease on life, with Laurens treatments working without side effects. She planned to live each second to the fullest and as such gave Drake everything but in a way that made Drake want more. She often met with Bo to get advice between the sheets and it worked really well.

Tamsin's sister Lauren wasn't scared anymore. She brushed up on her hand to hand combat skills and used a handgun too. It still did not prevent her from creating a stun grenade that put everyone in the area to sleep temporarily without the antidote and also created dart ammunition that was more effective on Fae with better distance than their standard tranq rifles cartridges.

One thing Lauren did question about was why did she need to learn how to shoot with her left non dominant arm? She was a medic.

Tamsin explanation was quite simple. A medic is fair game in an all-out war. Sometimes a medic has to be able to defend the patient she is trying to keep alive. Also according to the premonitions, Lauren COULD shoot with both left and right hands by the positioning of her holsters.

Bo was laser focused on getting Massimo hence training hard but that didn't prevent Tamsin from owning her on the mat. Tamsin, to Bo's chagrin, made sure to strip and dominate her to satisfy Bo's needs as a succubus no matter how much Bo repressed them.

Bo blushed all the time when Tamsin would make her see stars during training in the same open gym as everyone else but behind some stacked mats and it just turned her on like no tomorrow. Also Tamsin knew her most perverse desires so by not being allowed to crest and in public, but cresting anyway made her crazy for Tamsin. Tamsin pushed all her buttons and did it too darn well.

Bo would not feed any longer from her bonded partner but by Tamsin wetting her appetite, Bo invariably went out and fed from others at night clubs. Bo even used her pheromones every now and then to get quick anonymous feed.

Tamsin, Bo knew, used ALL of her former lover's moves her body yearned for kicked up a notch since Tamsin made sure to adapt and improve on them to keep Bo guessing. There was NO WAY that Bo found that would resist Tamsin's intimate knowledge of her body's inner workings. If Tamsin was her enemy, she'd better surrender immediately.

Bo loved her Valkyrie because although Tamsin knew she had Bo wrapped around her fingers, Tamsin still let her lead and supported her without reservation.

Oddly enough, Bo found Tamsin's Achilles heal after being dominated by Tamsin several times straight. Tamsin couldn't resist her if she acted and dressed more demure. She HAD to dominate the high and mighty goddess of the new order. She made a mental note of that to use against her later down the line.

Bo also learned to release small levels of her pheromones and at times ask Tamsin to do things for her.

Tamsin would dance and be that exotic stripper willingly but sometimes need a little help since that wasn't her strong suit or so she thought. Bo thought otherwise. Tamsin knew what Bo was doing but at that level she still had her free will, it just lowered her inhibitions. Bo's pheromones were akin to alcohol and so Tamsin didn't mind actually.

All Bo asked for every night from Tamsin wasn't sex but to be lullabied to sleep in her Valkyrie's arms and Tamsin did so without coaxing. Tamsin, Bo knew, could go to sleep with the sounds and whispers of the Valkyries using the link and Bo wanted to sleep with only the sound of her sweet angel Tamsin.

Bo looked to Tamsin to be her guardian angel and the thought of her being anything different was out of the question. Books and stories about her past were just simply wrong. Period. Thomasina was someone entirely different.

Lauren made sure Arin still had a childhood and they baked and cooked at her place. Not only did Lauren somehow make cooking a teaching moment with science, math and even history, Arin was quickly becoming an accomplished all around chef.

Arin for her part taught Lauren how to use her tessens. She had lifetimes' worth of skills and it was akin to tai chi and yoga. It was graceful and meditative and had a centering effect. It was opposite of what Tamsin was teaching everyone else which was, when attacked, hit hard, hit fast, kill and if you could, run.

Arin appreciated Lauren no longer shielding her from the truth concerning the premonitions. Granted Lauren tried to not be as blunt but somehow she'd have to deal with it, now or later. At least now Arin had the whole family to help her prepare for it.

Arin had to come to grips with several things which Valkyrie normally don't give a second thought about since they tuned out their feelings. It was how she felt about what fate would take away from her. She still could not fathom leaving her sister for dead and how did Lauren manage to be in that fire fight too? How did Lauren perish and WHY wasn't she by her side?

Arin needed more time to sort things out, but no amount of time could help she mused when there was this much loss at one time. It got so bad that she woke up in the middle of the night with nightmares from which Kenzi, Lauren, or Bo had to calm her down.

Drake and Alex took care of preparations for the wedding of Derrick and Erica to occur in 2 weeks' time keeping Mia and Jessica in the loop but they still trained with Tamsin. Somehow they managed to fit in their wedding plans which was to occur in a side chapel in a much smaller ceremony immediately after the main wedding with Derrick and Erica present.

1 week later

Kendra had finally finished composing what she had to say to Grizzal and set it to send upon her demise.

It read:

'Grizzal,

If you are reading this, it must mean that I'm no longer alive. Why and by whom doesn't matter right now.

Normally the only way we can see each other is on opposite ends of a battle field but this isn't about me although you must take some solace in the fact that my demise is a cause for celebration amongst the Dire Wolf Shifters.

To be blunt, I fear that Dyson and Mia probably may have perished as well trying to save my life.

This is both tragic and viciously ironic and the more I think about it, justice has a sick sense for humor.

For Dyson, I know he was your best friend for thousands of years. You know him like I do.

He is noble, chivalrous, intelligent, strong and kind. He claimed me as his life mate and to this day I still feel so lucky to be in his life.

Dyson putting his life on the line for me is painful but self-explanatory.

For Mia, your god daughter, I carry even more guilt to have you find out this way.

Working with her for several weeks now, Mia is one of the most brilliant, tough, and driven women I know of. She did what it took to get things done in the hundred and first even if it conflicted her morals. She did so without it compromising who she was as a person.

Coincidentally, by working with Mia, I learned that several of her most successful traits, even some of her tactics and the way she analyzes situations came from you. She's an amazingly talented woman because of that but you already knew that.

Mia was the correct choice to safe guard Dyson and to arbitrate the differences between us so I thank you for that. It gave me more time to be with my life mate and heal post Eric. It also gave me enough pause to reconsider my course of action dealing with your species but that is water under the bridge and for what it is worth, I apologize for my lack of judgment.

Mia now willingly puts her life on the line for me and it's more than just her duty. She goes above and beyond because we have grown a type of close, deep and lasting friendship that I can't really explain nor did I expect it.

Nothing I can say will soften the hurt you must be feeling now, but I needed you to know that it is the same hurt I feel as well as days pass.

Know also they died heroes and they didn't do it for just me but for a much greater cause which you will be proud of.

I wish you well,

Kendra'

Bo and Tamsin needed a break and so did everyone else. They finally took the weekend off to get away and it was Bo who decided to go to 69 Flags Amusement Park. Neither had been there and for Bo it was a dream come true.

Being in a human only district made her feel like a regular gal and it was refreshing that Tamsin was a good sport about it and actually had some fun too. At first she hated the games where you paid good money to get stuffed toys worth less than what you shell out but Tamsin kept the losses to a minimum by getting most everything on the first try.

Tamsin loved how the weight of the entire world lifted for just that time for both of them. She also adored playing with Bo and scare the crap out of her in the haunted houses. She also made sure to divest Bo of all her clothing by sneaking up to her in the hall of mirrors then running away. Seeing that many helpless and clueless Bo's titillated her to no end and she made sure to take plenty of pictures.

Bo could not help herself on the somewhat abandoned Ferris wheel but made out with her lover. As everyone was loading, Bo and Tamsin moved silently, slowly, and purposefully and made love in the enclosed confines of their cart the duration of the ride. Tamsin and Bo were still fixing their clothing when they got out.

For feeding, Bo actually liked the haunted house and preyed on humans who thought nothing of it. Bo would just subdue them with and without pheromones and take chi. Sure they yelled and screamed, but that was the point of the haunted house. Even when patrons stumbled out yelling that a monster was in there, everyone just laughed it off.

Tamsin and Bo ended the day with a white water rafting ride and when it was over both sopping wet women went to Tamsin's truck to change but that ultimately led to Bo and Tamsin fogging up the windows again. They were crazy about one another and they both got a much needed little slice of heaven those couple days.

At night time, Bo would often doze off with her ear to Tamsin's tummy talking to their baby. She was still growing but extremely slow. Tamsin treasured these times because it showed that Bo was ready to be a mother and a damn good one. Raising Arin wasn't as bad since Valkyries are somewhat self-sufficient and grow up fast.

As for the name of their daughter, Kenzi was working on it, but Tamsin shot all of the suggested names down. For Tamsin, her daughter's name had to symbolize something; something of grandiose importance.
