B/N: This chapter will be nine years later and the war has finally come, bear in mind one of the Bishop children are lost trying to save the world. So I'd break out the tissues before you read the chapter.
Born of Two Worlds
Spoilers: Over There I&II, Olivia, the Box, Plateau, Do Shapeshifters Dream of Electric Sheep.
Disclaimer: I do not own Fringe, if I did I'd get the checks.
The sound of everything occurring around her made Olivia literally block out the world. Fringe Division was a mad house due to the recent events that were inter-dimensional missiles.
Specially designed bombs that could cross the barriers separating the worlds, Olivia only looked up when Amy Jessup came into her office shaking her head.
"Amy what happened?"
"It was big really big...it took out half of Boston."
The door opened again and Olivia found her son looking at her, nine years old and he was ready for war. "It's time Mom, Lucy's ready and so is Rayne, even Olive is ready...the next one will break down the final barrier and the war will be on one plane...ours."
Olivia looked down and sighed, she went to the cabinet and removed her pulse weapon, tied her hair back and took pulled out her combat clothes. "I change and we go, we take it to their world."
"I'll get Dad."
"Wait," her son turned back, "Dunham he can't go...you and I both know why. We say our goodbyes before we go and there is no guarantee we'll come back. I'd never send my children to fight..."
Dunham smiled and nodded, "I know Mom but we were born for this, its time to defeat the final wave...we defeated the first and the second but this time its for the world."
They made their way to Central Park and Olivia turned to Peter, he looked at her as they stood there.
"I may not make it back but I'll send the back." She looked at him and Peter nodded, placing his hand on her cheek. "I don't regret these past ten years."
"I know baby," he pulled her into a hug and she held on, "fight till you can't anymore, protect our children."
She nodded and looked at him, "I love you Peter Bishop."
"I love you too Olivia Dunham," he kissed her and then took a moment to stare into her eyes. "Forever and always my Olivia."
Dunham and Lucy walked over and hugged their father, "love you Dad."
Peter bent down and looked at the twins, he remembered before their birth when they'd project lions and tigers to scare people and now they were going off to battle a war. "You take care of your mother and siblings Dunham, I'm counting on you to bring them back home."
He nodded and Lucy smiled at her father, "we'll win Daddy, its been predicted. The past has occurred, the present is balanced and the future is set." She hugged him and he smiled.
"You shine your light and blind them, show them who you are Lucy."
Rayne and Olive, the two younger ones, Rayne was seven and Olive was five, walked to their father.
"Goodbye Daddy!" Rayne looked at him, "I won't come back."
He nodded, "yes you will."
"No I won't but it doesn't mean I leave you...I'll always be with you." She stepped back and took Olivia's hand, Little Olive hugged her father and smiled...she was an exact copy of her mother except her smile, which was why she was called Olive.
"I'll see you later Daddy."
After goodbyes and good lucks, Peter watched as Olivia took the hands of Olive and Rayne while Dunham and Lucy stood beside her. They all disappeared in a blue light and Peter took a moment to remember his middle child...Rayne was never wrong and if she said she wouldn't be returning then he knew...he and Olivia would loose their child on the other side.
On the Other Side:
Olivia and the kids arrived as if ready for battle...the other side was already ready, it seemed Central Park would be a battle ground as they were all there.
"Circle." Shouts filled the air and Olivia cautioned her children to stand with their back to each other in a circle. She saw her there watching...her alternate who's memories she removed but it seemed Dunham's memory wipe hadn't been fully completed because she had anger in her eyes.
"So you come with children." Her twin eyed her and laughed, "you tried to make me forget but I didn't...I remembered. I know you killed the Secretary and murdered our shape shifters."
Olivia eyed her twin, "I did what I had to do to protect my world."
"Where's Peter...I'm surprised he would let you get very far after last time." She walked over and Olivia noticed Dunham was becoming angry, his hands on fire but she needed he's shield.
"Dunham, shield!" Dunham threw up his hands and Olivia found her alternate couldn't get within a few yards of her. "The shield protects against 76s so don't try, it'll just fold around us."
Alt-Olivia eyed her and then the children, "four children...all gifted, but why let a child fight your war?"
"That's a good question." Charlie and Lincoln came over and looked at her, "these must be the Bishop twins, I'm guessing the other two are around seven and four."
"I'm five!" Olive yelled and looked at them, "I maybe small but that just means I pack a big punch."
All three kids laughed and even Olivia had a smile on her face, "its been a while Charlie, Lincoln. Ten years actually, marry that nurse yet Lincoln?"
Charlie chuckled, "actually he married my sister."
"And it must kill you every day." Olivia smiled, "lets call a truce or we can start a battle between hell and earth."
Dunham looked at them, "which you won't win."
"Yeah!" Lucy yelled as did Rayne.
Charlie tried to walk to her and the shield kept him back, he noticed Dunham was the one with his hands up. "You kid, what's your name?"
"Dunham."
Alt-Livia laughed, "seriously, you named your kid Dunham?"
Olivia looked at her, "yes I did."
"So if you're Dunham, then who are you?" Charlie looked at Lucy and she eyed him, "let me guess, Danielle or something with a 'D' because you're twins right?"
"Lucy," she eyed him, "my sisters Rayne and Olive."
"No offense Liv but you have some serious naming issues with these kids. Lucy I get but Dunham and Rayne and Olive...why?"
Rayne eyed him, "if you have an issue with our names you can just say so." She smirked and eyed her mother, "we should finish this, they don't want a truce."
Olivia nodded, "a little more time Rayne."
Olive gasped and shook her head, "no!"
They all saw what she did, it was a huge nuclear bomb being pulled over, Olivia gasped as well and knew what they were doing. "You'll kill millions of people."
"It's a war," Alt-Livia looked at her, "some times there are casualties."
Rayne shook her head, "no!" She teleported out and Olivia screamed as she did.
"Rayne!"
They watched the young girl appear before the bomb, she shook her head and eyed her siblings and mother. "Go back, go home!"
She touched the bomb and it began to beep loudly, everyone seemed to gasp what was going on.
"Rayne stop!" Olivia yelled and pulled Olive into her arms as Dunham and Lucy gathered close to her. The others in the park were trying to get to the bomb but Rayne's force field prevented it.
"There are...there are as many atoms in the human body as there are stars in the sky. Go home."
Olivia closed her eyes and held onto her children, teleporting away as the bomb blew. She collapsed on the ground as they arrived on their side, Peter bent down next to her and gathered her up as she began to cry.
"Rayne..."
He nodded, "I know baby," he held her as she cried and looked at Olivia, "what happened?"
"They were going to send a nuclear bomb over," Dunham looked at Peter, "Rayne wouldn't allow it...she blew it up right there with everyone there. Her last words were about atoms and the human body."
Peter found it ironic that his daughter's last words were those mimicking William Bell. His seven year old gave herself up to win the war started by his own father...the cycle seemed to never end but the war had ended because those who knew the fight had died when the bomb went off.
Peter held onto Olivia, allowing her to cry as she mourned their daughter...he'd done his during their trip. "She was only seven!"
"I know Liv, God I know baby." He pulled back and looked at her, "but that's what makes her so much like you...sacrificing herself for the world. She knew but she chose to do so anyways."
Five Days Later:
The Bishop Family stood in Fringe Division as Broyles spoke, all the agents were silent. "As of five days ago we have won this inter-dimensional war but that does not account for the lives lost during the fight.
"I have received word from Director Bishop that we all owe our lives to a young girl who stopped a bomb, willing herself to die for our world and our people. As such, the FBI has come to a conclusion and a decision, the FBI office in New York will be holding a ceremony in two days to officially name the building, it shall become the Rayne S. Bishop Federal Plaza.
"While this doesn't take away the loss of a special young girl, it gives us reason to hope. Our future is bright and we have much to look forward to. Thank you."
Broyles walked over to the Bishop Family and eyed them, Peter looked at Broyles. "Thank you, it means a lot."
"Peter, I've known you for twelve years, you're like family and loosing Rayne is like loosing a niece. I can't imagine what you are feeling at this moment." He looked at Olivia, "Olivia, if there is anything I can do..."
"She would just want me to thank you, Rayne was very...passionate about learning and wanted to be an FBI agent. To have her name on an FBI Building would mean a lot to her."
Broyles nodded, "call me if you need anything, anything at all...even if you need me to watch the rest of the clan or have an agent watch Walter."
"Thank you sir."
Olivia looked at Peter after they retreated to her office, Amy was watching the twins and Olive for them. Peter sat down on the couch that had become like a second bed for Olivia when she worked late.
"When the twins were born, I thought one of them would win the war." Olivia shook her head, "I thought Dunham would be the one, he was the strongest. I was wrong this entire time," Olivia looked over at Peter and he placed a hand on her back. "Dunham is strongest in abilities but the strongest will...that was Rayne. She knew, she knew she was going to die but she didn't tell anyone or say anything."
"Because she was like you, warrior till the last moment. She wanted to go out fighting, to do what she was destined to do." He moved over and pulled Olivia into his arms, "when she told me that she was not coming back...I didn't believe it at first but none of her predictions were wrong so I knew you'd come back without her." He smiled and eyed Olivia, "but doesn't mean she's gone forever. She had an idea and I think we should do it...build a memory wall here in Fringe Division. Fallen agents, people who helped...devoted themselves to this cause...no matter how insane it is, so the future can remember."
Olivia nodded, "yeah, that's a good idea."
After a five week gathering of pictures and names, The Bishop Family put the memory wall together and in the end, it was named not after their lost daughter but a dear friend who had been lost. They stood back and looked at the wall, pictures lined the walls, under the pictures were names.
Olive was the one to read the wall out loud and it caused Olivia to smile once again.
THE CHARLIE J. FRANCIS MEMORY WALL
-TO THOSE LOST IN THE WAR, THEIR LIVES FOR OUR OWN-
Dunham touched his sister's face, Rayne was the last picture up on the wall. "She maybe the youngest one lost but she won't be the last." Dunham turned to his parents and siblings, "the war is over for now but in a few hundred years...it'll be back."
"And we'll be ready!" Olive smile and looked at her family, "because Fringe Division will still be here."
Little did anyone know, Little Olive would be around long enough to see the war. She would grow until her thirtieth year then stop before not aging anymore. She watched the deaths of her beloved family and then the deaths of their children and their children's children.
But the day came on September 9, 2285...three hundred years to the day that her grandfather stole her father from the other side...that the war reared it's ugly head again and they were ready.
"Activity Reiden Lake." A young woman looked at the office, "Director Bishop...action taken?"
Olive 'Olivia' Rachel Bishop stepped out of her office and smiled, "no action yet, images."
Olive Bishop knew only one thing, she had two curses...she looked like an identical twin to Olivia Dunham except for her smile and that she was ageless.
"Satellite this is Olivia Bishop, get me images of Reiden Lake."
She saw the images of Reiden Lake and found several soldiers, "dear God, its begun again. Fringe Division," she got everyone's attention, "this is the coming of the Second Fringe War. It'll be ugly and there will be deaths but we have an advantage...we're ready and able. So let's win."
Olive Bishop knew one final thing as she looked at the memory wall that still stood, however it was covered in names now and no longer images...except those of a family, her family. She knew that the fact her grandfather had done those Cortexiphan experiments had saved her life and those of others.
Cortexiphan was required for all Fringe agents but only her family, those who still remained were all Cortexiphan positive...their Cortexiphan lineage tied back to a single woman who would forever be a legend in Fringe...Olivia Dunham-Bishop, perhaps the greatest woman the modern world knew and the bearer of five children known as 'The Final Wave' and who saved the world.
"We're ready Mom, Dad...we're ready and we'll win."
With her blond hair, deep green eyes and Fringe Division uniform, Olive made her way over and began to coordinate attacks...the war was beginning again and it would be won...
...after all, she was Born of Two Worlds and a Bishop.
A/N: Sorry about Rayne but I had to have one of the kids sacrifice themselves because they were born to be part of the war. I couldn't let it be Olive because she would be the future (truthfully) and everyone suspected the twins so it had to be Rayne. Peter's words were true, she was like Olivia and that was one of the reasons she sacrificed herself.
