Ch.10

Good Morning Family

They had finally touched down in Sligo, Ireland just as the sun began to light up the sky. Doyle and Sami had taken turns through the night flying. Doyle was currently asleep in his actual room on the jet. Sami walked down silently to the shower room connected to the mini gym. She wanted to freshen up a little before she went to great her old friends. She pick out a clean out fit after words. A pair of black skinny jeans instead of her usual shorts and a purple shirt that covered her midriff. In the cold weather of Ireland she'd need the wardrobe change.

After being full dressed and ready she proceeded to wake up the others. Joel reluctantly rolled off his med-bed then she proceeded to wake up Yuri. With little resistance he slid off the bed carefully so he wouldn't wake Ani. For Doyle she just knocked on the door; she may not be mad but she wanted to make it clear that he is her friend not her lover.

"I'll let them know we are on our way but that still leaves us some time to get breakfast somewhere." Sami said. "Alright I'll wake up Ani then" Joel sprang up "Slow down there pops, I still need to get cleaned up, we all do. We still have another hour okay" Sami walked up to Yuri "he's right; follow me they have a small coffee maker in one of these rooms, why don't you help me make some?" The two strolled out letting Joel pretty up while they got a chance to catch up.

" So what exactly is going on between you two. You act like you two were hardly involved?" Yuri asked her " Nothing is wrong any more, we just decided that we should break up" Yuri raised hi eyebrow. "By 'we' do you mean you decided to break up" Sami crossed her arms then dropped them dejectedly "Yes, but he came to understand it and anyways at least were talking again" Yuri placed a hand on her shoulder turning her gently away from a cabinet to face him. "What are you so afraid of Sami?" she didn't look at him but she made her words sound strong. "I'm not afraid I just think that this is his second chance at a seemingly normal life. He would never have that with me" Yuri didn't say anything after that he just helped her make the coffee. Sami didn't like the silence so she decided to ask some hard hitting questions her self. " So, why didn't you tell me about Sasha, and spare me the bull crap about safety. You knew how much she meant to me." Yuri let his face grow cold but his words were full of heart. " I just couldn't stand the idea of her death and having an actual funeral made it seem so finale. You know the worst part is that it was a basic human disease that got her." Sami looked up at him in disbelief . Sasha was the toughest normal human being she had ever met. The idea of her dying from a disease was insane! "Which one was it?" she asked him " Cancer. If you can believe that?!" Sami shuffled some mugs around uncomfortably. " What about Ani, how has she been through all this" Yuri looked directly at her " She's strong like her mother, but I worry how growing up without a mother will be for her" Sami laid a had firmly on his shoulder " She may not have a mother but a the very least she can have her aunt Sami" Yuri smiled " Thanks kid"

"Yuri there is one thing I want to know before we let her get to caught up in this. Is she like us? Will her body hold out in a worst case scenario?"

"Yup, was surprised at first I thought she'd be normal, but her physic skills are staring to come through."

"Oh that's fantastic! What exactly is her power"

"Image projection . If she can imagine it she can make it come to life. Its so cute to see how she uses her power. She likes to make little pretend worlds come to life!" Yuri laughed.

Joel marched around the jet till he found Yuri and Sami sipping coffee and laughing. He hung outside the door for a second so he wouldn't disturb them. Watching them like that reminded him of the years they spent together. They were their own little family back then; he missed how good it felt when he was home with all of them. He'd been chasing that feeling for a long time…

He finally decided to come in and join them. " Hey Joel, there is a cup of coffee with your name on it if you want it. He smiled and gratefully took the cup off the counter " Thanks you two I needed this." Yuri took his last swig "I need to get Ani ready you two kids behave alright" Joel and Sami rolled their eyes and said in a mocking tone " Yes Yuri"

Joel and Sami turned their attention to each other.

" So…how have you been Joel" Sami asked

" Just fine I guesses" He said modestly

"I know for a fact that a model like you dose more than 'just fine'." Sami said laughing a little. " What made you model anyway hu, you never seemed interested before?"

" Oh I was in a little financial trouble awhile back and then someone came along; said I was pretty enough and I had a good look-whatever that means- and there I was standing in front of a camera in a pair of jeans I could never afford. Everything else seemed to fall into place after that." Joel was an all American sweetheart and honestly never cared for any of that nonsense but it paid the bills so he never tried to fight it.

The two continued to talk about there lives.

"So…What have you been up to hu?" Joel nudged her playfully

"Missing you guys most of the time" she said looking into her coffee

"And…what else. Did you meet anyone special or find a new job hm" asked Joel?

" Yeah actually, I'm a photographer now. I really don't do anything special, its mostly just landscape photos but eventually I'd like to get into other stuff like fashion."

" Well that's cool, but what about a special someone. You can't pine for someone forever" Joel said lovingly.

" Don't worry I didn't, life has to go on right. I mean I haven't found anyone that I loved like him yet but I could right?" she looked at Joel expecting an answer he couldn't give honestly.

"Anyway, about a year after we all went on our marry ways I started dating again, but nothing to long term" Joel nodded silently after she spoke.

"Sasami I'm going to say this because I love you and you need to hear it! Not being able to have children dose not mean you can't still be happy. You can't let little things like that hold you down baby girl"

Sami smiled up at him "I know that Joel, I do, but I feel like he deserves the option. If he still feels anything for me after all of this then I would defiantly stick with him"

Joel frowned at her answer but decided to let the topic drop. Just in time as well because the next person to stroll through the doors was Doyle.

"Hey there sleepy head, Sami and Yuri made some coffee if you want some?" Joel said with a chipper grin. Doyle rubbed his head a little then nodded his reply. Despite the insanity of just learning he has lived two very different lives Joel was still his ridiculously pleasant self. It was a small comfort to know that he could rely on Joel, and that no matter what he would be there. " You were out for a long time, I knocked on your door like twenty minutes ago." Sami said. "When you pull an all night flight and then get woken up at five in the morning we'll see how quickly you wake up okay?!" Doyle grumbled. Taking a sip of his coffee he went ahead and asked what the day had in store for them.

Sami lead them out into the main deck " okay so after we rendezvous with Shawn and Fiona we can hurry and get into London where we'll find Clifford and Erick. Then we land in Lindesnes, Norway. Ansfrida will be prepared for a quiet evening departure then. Then we touch down in Brindisi Italy to collect my kid brother and Alisa and her sister Andria. Will stay there for the night and prepare for the rest of the journey." Sami finished placing her hands on her hips assertively. Doyle just rubbed his hands along his face while Joel whinnied. "it's going to be a long trip in such a short amount of time." Sami huffed because it was true.

Ch.11

Terror in my Mind

Finally everyone was ready to go accept for Ani, the boys had forgotten her jacket. Sami went into Zaks room on the jet and rummaged through his things until she found one of his old jackets that might fit her. " Here honey you can use this for now, I'll buy you one that fits when we're in town okay" Sami said as she placed the coat on Ani. "Okay, can I have a red one, please please pretty please!" Ani begged. Sami laughed "Sure Ani if we find one you can have it" Ani giggled and skipped off to join her father happily.

The group walked along the quite roads and into the busy back alleys until they were out side of a local restaurant. " Where are we meeting them anyway?" asked Joel. "They told me to go to the Temptations Café " Sami said. " Well no point in waiting on an empty stomach" said Yuri " Ani and I will go get some breakfast while you all keep a look out"

They all nodded in agreement till Yuri summoned Joel. " Come on, you can help us carry some stuff" Joel's eyes lit up with disagreement, the thought of leaving Sami and Doyle alone seemed wrong right now. "Now" Yuri said acting like he was Joel's father. Sami huffed because she was uncomfortable with the idea as well but other wise said nothing. While Doyle remained oblivious to why everyone was acting like a fool.

After ten minutes of awkward silence Doyle asked " what ever happened with Shawn and Fiona, did they ever settle down?" Sami smiled. " Yeah, I was at the wedding actually. It was really special at least until they got me sauced then asked me to make a speech; then it was just hilarious. In retrospect anyway" Doyle smiled he remembered what a good relationship they had and how good they were for each other. "here" Sami said as she handed him a photo of the wedding " They took this just before the reception." Doyle broke down laughing " You look ridiculous" Doyle said blatantly. "Shut up" Sami scowled as she punched him in the arm. " Seriously though, ruffles and orange are not a good look for you" Sami scowled more intensely then reached out and touched his arm

' Stop talking if you value your life' Sami said in his let a vibe of death fall down his spine. Doyle's face lost a little color and he chose to be silent.

"Oi I see you still get your thrills from terrorizing this boy" a voice rang out and laughed. Sami turned to look at the source of the voice. "Shawn!" she cried ecstatically "Dia duit Sami girl" Said Shawn jubilantly " And a fine hello to you to Doyle" Said Fiona with a loving hug. Doyle hugged her back gently " It's been a life time since I've seen you two and honestly you haven't changed a bit" They all exchanged smiles as they went inside to collect the others and get on their way. Shawn lifted Ani up of the ground "It's been so long since I saw you little Ani, I bet you don't even remember your uncle Shawny do ya, But I tell you true we've met once before?" He tickled her tummy a little making her giggle. " oh Shawn put her down you silly man" Fiona said as she hoisted Ani out of his arms. " well I guess we best reintroduce ourselves then hm" Fiona said placing her back down on the ground. Ani waved them off " No, I know that your Fiona and your Shawn and that you used to live with mommy and daddy" Shawn patted her head and she gave little smile. "Well it seems you have quite a smart one here Yuri, though I wonder how someone so young finds a place on a crew that's supposed to be deal'n with some kind of mortal troubles" Shawn said looking at Yuri. " Tasha left this world some time ago and there was no one else that could watch her" Yuri said. Shawn nodded not pressing the issue any further.

After they had all caught up over breakfast and found Ani a red coat they returned to the jet to get back to business. "Sami what exactly are these creatures you told us about they sound a little to extraordinary to be believed." Sami knew there was certainly truth in Fiona's words. Sami walked over to the computer "Here is the first footage of one" Sami scrolled through the footage for them and Doyle recounted what had happened when the Saturdays got involved. Yuri also put in what he knew " They clearly have vendetta against use, particularly Sami." " But we've never had an altercation with anything like them, how can they be so ready to kill use?" Shawn said. " In all that time we went after the more violent anomalies I don't recall anything that violent, intelligent, or extraordinary" said Fiona in awe. "Well they keep mentioning something about a queen and then we got one to give us some information" said Joel. "The person we believe is behind all this madness is Kyoko" Joel continued somberly.

Sami jumped back startled; this information was new to her. " Excuse me, but my sister disappeared two years ago on a reconnaissance mission, there is no way she could be behind this!" Sami said appalled. She thought her sister was dead, the family even held a small service for her. She thought about how hurt she was that her twin had died and how distraught her nephew and brother in law were. The idea that Kyoko had deceived them was heart wrenching. "It's true Sami, that thing sputtered out that his queen wanted you to suffer and watch us die" Yuri said. " I'm a ninja, plenty of people want me dead!" Sami said unconvinced " Sami it said the she wanted the one that 'shared her face' to suffer and die" Doyle said finally confirming that it was Kyoko. After that Sami's thoughts became a blur. She was relived that her sister was alive but hurt that she wanted her dead and angry because she had destroyed the happiness of so many people. Sami felt sick with overflowing emotions till her body gave out and she fainted. She hears people call out to her but she couldn't respond. Then all her thoughts became blank and the world became dark.

He he he. Someone laughs, a beautiful sing song laugh. She is holding Sami close. So close she smells her perfume. It's smells like fresh rain on an open field 'Shinjirarenai! Nee-chan anata koko' Sami says, she can't believe that her sister is here. 'Nee-chan Samishi katta desu' Kyoko tells her that she missed her very much. 'Nee-Chan Mayotte shimai mashita, Wakarimasen' Sami finally looks into her sisters eyes and says she is lost and dose not understand. Kyoko kisses her forehead and the materialized a small dagger and drives it into Sami's stomach. Sami places a hand over the fresh wound as Kyoko says curl things 'This is only the beginning of your suffering' She takes hold of Sami's face and drives her nails into her cheeks as she places a firm kiss on her for head before disappearing.

Sami moves a little and then a pain shoots up at her from her stomach. She can tell Doyle healed her wounds but some pain still linger and the blood is still all over her body. She's still laying on the floor on the main deck, 'it must have all happened in moments' she thinks to her self. Her head is on Fiona's lap but Doyle's hands are holding onto her face.

"Sami can you hear me…Sami…" Doyle calls out softly. "I'm okay" she says and slowly get off of Fiona. "What the hell was that then!" Shawn says "You just started bleed'n but no one here made a move" Sami stood up. "It was my sister, you were right she is alive and she is the source of this evil." Joel held out his hands to help steady her " How could she wound you without being here I thought your psychic powers only aloud you two to connect without touching" Sami caught her balance and said " It allows use to connect both mentally and physically. I can't believe she would do this…" She says as she walks out of the room. " Doyle stet the coordinates for our next destination" Doyle did as he was told for a change and Sami went to get a fresh shirt and clean off the blood. She was grateful Ani was playing in Zaks room, she would hate to be just another traumatic event in her young life.

Doyle stet the course and then set the ship to auto pilot. He walked around until he found Sami in a shower. He really wasn't sure if this would be a good place to talk to her since they recently fell out of a relationship. His body didn't seem to get the memo and he walked in "are you alright?" he asked. Sami poked her head out of the curtain "yes, I'm fine, Now get out you pervert!" she laughed as she said the last part. Doyle blushed

"WHAT! No, no, no…its not like that…I'm just…well its not like its nothing I haven't seen…oh, I mean…I give up" he sputtered just as Sami turned off the water. She came out wrapped in a towel. " Doyle I'm fine, I'll be just fine really" as she said it though Doyle caught a glimpse of her eyes and they contradicted what she said. She was hurt inside and out, it made a sad kind of sense. It wasn't just some creep or a criminal, it was her sister. Despite all that had gone down between them and what was no longer between them, he took her into his arms. She barred her face in his chest and cried for a little while.

Ch.12

CREEP!

Fiona sat close to one of the windows on the ship and watched the clouds as they flew by. It was a pleasant distraction from the bad news earlier. To think Kyoko not only wanted to kill them but that she went out of her way to create some despicable array of creatures to do here bidding was a tragic turn of fate. The curiouse part was what any of they could have done to push her to this. As far as Fiona could remember they had all been good friends; Fiona let it drop for the time being.

Fiona sat quietly until something flew pass the glass. It was deffinatly to big to have been a bird but the flight pattern was to free to have been an air craft. She got closer to the glass and scanned the area carefully. Then it sored into sight again and it seemed aware of its audience so it waved at her. Starttled but not un acustom to bizzar situations she waved back. After the flying creture dissapered into a nimbuse Fiona ran from the window to warn the others that something was out there. The first person she found was Yuri

"Yuri, find Doyle and Sami I'm going to find shawn. I think were are about to be under attack!" Yuri took her derections and found Doyle and Sami walking out of the shower room. It was undeniably awkward to see them walk out together but he pushed through it to deliver the alert. "Fiona thinks we may be under attck, hurry and gear up then report to the main deck." Without another word they ran off to get what they needed to.

With in moments they had assembled on the main deack and were prepaird for battle. "Fiona where did you first see it?" asked Shawn

"Just outside that window. It waved at me if you can believe that; it doesn't seem afraid of use." Fiona said.

" Fiona do you kown what it looked like spacifically maby if we know some of its physical atributes we can determaine the best way to combat it." Joel said, his brilliant side only ever came out in serious situations.

" It had wings like a bat and its fingers were increadably long but beyond that it looked like a man, a really hot tan man!" Shaen shot her a look and the others snickered but quickly resolved that they should try not to get into a confrontation with it-him- until they could land. They assumed that a two man team would be enough to take him down.

THUNK! The creature had landed on the glass. They all supn around and prepaired for the worst. When nothing happened Sami approached it in a hopes of talking to him.

" I know what Kyoko wants but what I don't know is why you're here. If I die before we hit land then all here planes are ruined and as far as I can tell you all live to make her happy." The creature threw his head back and laughed " The others live to make her happy, I live just because. Anyway I enjoyed our little arial dance and I figured I'd come and see if I couldn't get you to come out and play, how 'bout it Sami?" his eyes caught fire as he looked at her. He wanted her to be his in every way. He liked how contrary she was compaired to her sister. She was dark on the outside but pure good inside and she didn't seem as needy as her sister. Her sister needed his services in her bed every night because she wouldn't sleep without the company athough her chose of company often kept her up.

" No" Sami said flat out "I'm not sure you understand but people usually don't count an arieal attack as a dance and they certainly don't take others up on the offer to do it again"

He frowned a little " Awww…well to bad then. I thought I'd have some fun while I was tailing you but I guesse that plan is over." Sami fruwwed her brow " you've been tailing us" The creture giggled a little "oops, did I let that slip, oh silly me." Sami wanted to go out there and dystroy him but she knew that would be suicde, he'd just knock her off her board again. So she did the only thing she could, she stood there and gave him her best intimadation look. It didn't seem to have any effect on him, in fact it seemed to be some kind of pervers turn on for him.

Finally he broke the silents "How 'bout you let me come on board when you land and we can have a nice private chat some where hm…?" he asked. Sami turned to the others who looked wiry of it but all agreed that the information they could obtain would be worth the risk. She trunned back to him " fine you're alound to come on board, but if you try anything I will…" He cut her off " No worries dear I'm over the fighting part, since you don't seem to like that" he purred then fly off the glass and out of sight. " Well I think I need a shower" Sami said dramatically. Joel snickered " Aw it's got a crush on you Sami, looks like Doyle has a little compition" Doyle smacked him on the arm "Ow!" Joel whinned "It's not a compition, we are not together" Yuri laughed "oh really cuz that's not what it looked like a minute ago" They all chuckled at Sami and Doyles expense for a while.
