Chapter 34: Happiness Reigns
(Dyson's Pov – Loft, Next Morning – 8:00 AM)
When Mikael and Ali let out another loud whimper, I sighed and got up. I kissed Kenzi on the top of the head as I moved over to scoop my lil' ones up out of their beds. Both smelled awful thus I knew they needed to be changed before they were fed. Walking over to the living room, I layed Ali on the couch beside me as I layed Mikael on the pad that was lying on the coffee table from the other night. I smiled as Mikael cooed at me. I wrinkled my nose when I took off his diaper but knew that he was growing up since his shit was starting to stink slightly. I frowned when I noticed blood in his stools but decided to speak to Kenzi about that. Finishing up with Mikael, I layed him on my left side as I picked up Ali, layed her on the table and proceeded to change her diaper as I did her brothers. I also noticed that the scent of blood was also in Ali's diaper and that caused me some worry.
"Dyson?" I heard Kenzi's voice as she woke up. "What's wrong?" She must have felt my worry.
"Mikael and Ali have blood in their stool and pee." I looked at Kenzi then back to what I was doing.
Kenzi chuckled as I watched her get out of bed from the corner of my eye. "That's going to be normal, wolf man." She whispered walking over and picking up Mikael. "They are part vampire. I guess they bit me last night when I was feeding them."
I then noticed small fang marks on each breast. "Should they be doing that?" I asked handing her Ali. "I mean shouldn't they NOT want their mother's blood?"
"It's ok D-man." She sighed leaning her head back on the back of the couch. "I bit my mother as well for her blood. It wasn't until I was a little older that I was introduced to human food along with blood." Kenzi cut her eyes to me then down to the twins.
"Alright," I sighed kissing her head. "I'm going..." I stopped when the phone rang. "Hold that thought." I told her moving over and picking up the phone. "Hello?"
"Dyson? Is Kenzi with you?" Bo's worried voice came through the phone line.
"Yeah, she's here." I frowned not liking what Bo asked. "Why?"
The line was quiet for a moment. "I thought last night was all a dream and I had to make sure Kenzi was alright." She sighed as I heard her shifting feet. "I'm...I'm also sorry for what happened. I had no idea that letting Rainer go..."
"It's alright." I told Bo as I gazed at Kenzi as she removed Ali first then Mikael. "Are you and Lauren alright?"
"Yeah, we're fine." Bo was quiet for a moment. "Lauren and I were thinking of meeting up at the Dal in a few, would you and Kenzi like to come?"
I looked at Kenzi who was staring at me with a smile on her face. "Sure, we'll be there." I told her as I hung up the phone. "That was Bo. She thought last night was a dream and wanted to make sure you were alright."
"Is she ok?" Kenzi asked with a frown as she switched Mikael for Ali to burp.
"Yeah, her and Lauren are both ok." I told her walking over and sitting down after I hung up the phone. "She wanted to know if we would like to join them at the Dal later. I told her we'd be there. I thought it would be nice to get together with the others for a night of relaxation." I smirked seeing her smile.
"That sounds wonderful." Kenzi told me, kissing me on the cheek. "Now, I need to get ready." She held out Ali who had just burped. "Hold her, I think Mikael's sleeping again."
We both looked over and noticed he was indeed asleep. I just smiled and nodded as I took Ali. She cooed as I layed her down and started to rock her gently. I heard Kenzi moving around but I could only smile knowing that this would be our life. I also started to think about moving into a different place. Right now it was alright since Ali and Mikael were babies but soon they would be tottering around and I wanted a nice safe home for them to grow up in. I smiled as I realized I was finally thinking of buying a house. All I had to do now was wait until the right time to tell Kenzi. I knew it would take her a while getting ready thus I layed a now sleeping Ali by her sleeping brother and went to get ready myself. I knew the kids would be ok on the couch for a few minutes while I changed. It wasn't as if I left them completely alone.
I could still hear and smell them.
(3rd Person Pov – Dal – 12:00 PM)
Trick looked around at his bar and at the patrons that were here. Zombie and Hale were playing pool while Lucia, Macy and Tamsin were talking about something. He couldn't hear what was being said but he knew that shortly the rest of the gang would show up. He still couldn't believe what had happened for them to arrive at this point but he was thrilled because he found he was happy. When the bell over the front door rang, everyone paused only to see that Bo and Lauren walked in looking around.
"Where's Kenzi and Dyson?" She asked looking over at Trick, pulling off her jacket. "I called and asked if they would show up and Dyson said they would be here." Bo frowned wondering if something happened. "maybe I should..."
"No," Lauren took the phone out of her hand. "You shouldn't." She looked at Trick. "Something strong for my succubus, please."
Trick chuckled and nodded pouring something to calm Bo down. "Here," he slide a glass in front of Bo and Lauren. "This should calm her."
Bo didn't ask what it was as she downed it, only to start coughing. "What the hell is that?" She glared at her 'grandfather'. "It tasted like piss."
"It's not piss." Trick shook his head wiping down the bar. "In fact, its blood of a Fae that has a calming effect to people just by being around them."
"Maybe you forgot I'm not Kenzi." Bo snarled her eyes flashing blue.
"Of course your not me, Bobolicious." Kenzi chuckled as she walked in the door setting the bell ringing. "So what have Dyson and I missed so far?" She looked around as her and Dyson walked over and sat Mikael and Ali on a wide table in their car seats.
"Bo drinking the blood of a Fae." Hale spoke up as he stood, leaning against his pool stick.
Kenzi laughed out loud as she turned to Bo. "Really?"
"It seems Trick thought I was you." Bo snorted as she glared at Trick. "Now how about something that wont taste like piss." She held her glass up.
Trick nodded as he pulled out another bottle and poured her another glass. "This should be better."
Bo didn't say anything as she narrowed her eyes then took a small sip. Finding that it tasted better then the other shit, Bo nodded as she turned to the others. When she spotted Tamsin her heart stopped in her chest because the Valkyrie was also looking at her. Kenzi noticed and moved to Bo's side as did Lauren. Dyson frowned until he realized that Tamsin wasn't a young kid any longer but full grown. He had been shocked to find that Tamsin had been granted her wings because that meant she was on her last life. Even Fae died after a few hundred centuries. Hale, Lucia, Macy, Zombie and Dyson watched as Tamsin stood and moved over to in front of Bo. The Valkyrie's eyes were trained on the ground because even Tamsin had changed after her rebirth.
"I'm sorry for what happened." Tamsin looked up at Bo with a frown on her face. "I can remember everything from my past life and I'm sorry that I was against you but I was able to return to Valhalla and take Rainer's soul with me."
"Is he..." Bo swallowed as Lauren took the shot glass from her. "Is he happy?"
Tamsin smiled shyly and nodded. "Yes, Rainer is happy with where I placed him." She straightened her back. "With taking Rainer back to Valhalla, I was given a second chance to redeem myself. If it wasn't for you, Bo, Kenzi," She looked between the two. "I wouldn't have been able to return home. For that I am thankful."
"Feh, it was nothin'." Kenzi smirked shrugging her shoulders. "What's friends for?" Dyson and some of the others just shook their heads.
Lauren cleared her throat. "When I was looking through the books in the Dark Manor, I found the prophecy about Rainer, Kenzi and Bo," Tamsin nodded as everyone just listened. "It said that the Queen's Heart will need to lose her destiny or something like that," She shook her head. "How did Rainer know the key to close down the portal was him?"
"He had the gift of Foresight." Trick spoke up, still behind the bar. "Rainer knew what was going to happen before anyone else did." His eyes moved around the group. "He even knew when I was going to remove him and begin this awful prophecy." He shook his head.
"We were all apart of it, Trick." Zombie said with a firm tone. "Yes, you began the prophecy but without you, Kenzi wouldn't be born and neither would Mikael or Ali. So in a way, you did as you were planned to do by Fate. Sometimes she's a bitch but others she does because it makes us think and change."
"Things happen for a reason." Kenzi said as she looked around. "That's what I've always been told."
Bo and the others nodded. "You're right, things do happen for a reason." Lauren said as she wrapped her arms around Bo's waist. "We're all together and finally happy."
"Here, here!" Hale said raising his glass of beer.
Everyone followed as Hale and Zombie returned to their pool game and the others move off to speak to old and new friends. Trick stood behind the bar with a small smile on his face. The seed from the Uni Mens was safely tucked away in his vault and it would stay that way. Kenzi and Dyson had stopped the war between vampires and werewolves. Lauren, Rainer and Bo were able to stop the Dark King to rule over the human world and finally everyone was able to finally live the life they wanted. True there would be small battles but with everything that has happened, Trick knew that no matter what Dyson and the others would always be there to help. He couldn't help but feel that his life was finally meaning something. Trick shook his head as he moved around and went to see Mikael and Ali.
While they weren't his great grand kids, he would use them until Bo became pregnant. If she did that is...
(Kenzi's Pov – Hospital Delivery Room, 5 Years Later – 2:00 AM)
"LAUREN!" Bo screamed as she panted through the contraction.
I sighed and wiped her forehead and looked at the nurse. "Where's Lauren?"
"S-She's o-on her w-way." The nurse said as she stepped backwards from Bo. "Are you in any pain, Bo?" I was thankful that we were at a Fae hospital because I knew Bo would have already drained every nurse because she had already tried.
"What do you think?" Bo snarled as her eyes flashed blue causing the nurse to jump. "FUCK!" She curled into herself as her large stomach moved again. "Are you sure it's only one!"
I waved the nurse out of the room. "You know you're only having one." I told her as I wiped her forehead again.
"Then why does it feel like there are two!" Bo snarled at me as her head slammed against the bed.
"I don't know." I told her with a wince as her hand tightened on mine.
Bo growled but didn't say anything as I listened to her heart beat and the kid's. Both of their heart rates were good but Bo's was a little high but that was because she was in labor. I smirked as Lauren walked in with the Doctor. I knew she would have spoken to the doctor because that is just how Lauren is. Even when I had Mikael and Ali, Lauren was very thorough.
"How is she?" Lauren asked as she grew closer.
"She's not happy about the pain." I smirked as Bo glared at Lauren.
"I want the drugs." Bo snarled her eyes flashing. "Give me the drugs." Her hand tightened on mine but I just kept my face passive.
Lauren sighed shaking her head as she glanced to the doctor. "It's to late for that Bo." She kissed her forehead and wiped the sweat away. "It shouldn't be to long now. Right doc?"
"Yes." The doctor was looking at Bo. "She's already completely dilated thus it should be...SSSSShit!" The doctor hissed as his Fae side came out.
"What!?" Lauren said as Bo snarled and curled in on herself.
"I want you to push, Bo." The doctor looked up at Bo with green eyes. "It's time."
Bo snarled and yelled at the same time as she pushed. Her grip on my hand caused me to cringe away from her because she was rather strong. Lauren was wiping the sweat from her forehead as the doctor was calling for a nurse to hurry in with a blanket. When the nurse came in, Bo collapsed against the bed panting. I looked at the doctor only to see him nod at me letting me know everything was alright. Lauren kissed Bo's head as the doctor looked up at Bo between her legs.
"One more time, Bo and you'll have you baby." He was rather nice but I couldn't help but feel that this guy was odd because of the fact he was part snake Fae.
I looked at Bo only to see her eyes grow wide and flash as she screamed through gritted teeth. I held my breathe because of the fact she was about to crush my fingers. Just as the pain grew worse for my hand, Bo cried out once more and then another cry filled the room only this was the cry of a newborn. Bo finally released my hand as the nurse took the child after the doctor cut the umbilical cord and handed the child to Bo.
"Say hello to your little girl." The nurse whispered as she allowed Bo to hold her for a few minutes. "Now, I need to wash her up and get her into some clothes."
"Of course." Lauren said kissing Bo then taking their little girl from Bo and handing it to the nurse. "So Bo what do you want to name her?" She turned her eyes back over to Bo as I stood and moved over to where the nurse had the baby.
I ignored Bo and Lauren as I looked down at the young baby. "She's so tiny." I whispered causing the nurse to chuckle. "Do you know if she's Fae yet or not?"
"Not until she reaches maturity." The nurse told me as she placed a diaper on the infant. "Most Fae are like that." She finished and wrapped her up in a blanket then headed back over to Lauren and Bo, who were whispering.
I narrowed my eyes, playfully at them as I walked over. "What are you two whispering about?"
"Just the name of the baby." Lauren smirked and I couldn't help but be very worried.
"We finally decided on a name, Kenz." Bo said as she held her child, the doctor was finished cleaning the after birth out and left the room after he was done, along with the nurse.
"Oh?" I raised a brow as I looked down at the tiny red face of Bo and Lauren's daughter. "And what are you going to name her?" I cut my eyes to Bo.
"Mackenzi Lynn." Bo had a bright smile on her face.
I pouted a little. "But there's only going to be one Kenzi."
"Of course." Bo scoffed playfully rolling her eyes. "So, what do you think will happen now?"
I just shook my head turning to see Lauren frowning. "What's up doc?" That caused Lauren to smirk. "You look like your thinkin' of something awfully serious."
"I still don't understand why Rainer was the one who died instead of me." Lauren said looking to Bo then back to me.
"What did the Prophecy say?" Bo asked as she rocked Mackenzi.
"The Queen of Darkness' Heart must give up her destiny in order to close the gates of HELL. If the wrong Heart is sacrificed, Darkness shall reign in Lights' stead." Lauren told us the prophecy. "What do you think it means?"
My eyes widen as I realized something. We were the Queen of Darkness and our Heart was Bo! I looked at Bo then to Lauren. If Lauren would have gave up her life...
Darkness would reign. Nezi spoke softly as she stayed in her cage. It seems that Rainer being Bo's destiny was a good thing since she still had Lauren.
"It means that if you would have jumped into the portal," Bo looked at Lauren. "The Dark King would have been set free and Kenzi would have been taken over by the Dark Queen. Am I right?" She turned her brown eyes to me.
"Yeah, you're right." I told her and Lauren as I sighed sitting down in a chair. "It was after we returned the last time from the Death train where Rainer was placed. It was odd, the voice, because it seemed to push Nezi out of my mind. I couldn't seem to speak to her. It was as if she was completely gone. Nezi said it felt almost like she was in a sleeping state."
Lauren nodded humming. "Then it seemed that the Dark Queen was part of Nezi and you." She looked to Bo. "I am sorry for what happened to Rainer. I know you cared for him."
Bo smiled sadly and nodded as she kissed her daughters downy hair. "I did but it was like as soon as Tamsin took him, my love went with him." She looked to me. "How did you feel after she took Rainer to Valhalla?"
"Like my brother died yet I knew he was happy." I shrugged standing. "I think I'll head home. You need to rest Bo, and I know you and Lauren want to talk about other things." I winked as I headed over to grab my purse and coat.
"Thanks Kenzi." Bo called to me.
I waved back at her as I headed out of the room and down the hall. I tired smile spread across my face as I looked at the clock. 2:37 AM was the time it showed. Shaking my head, I swung by the cafeteria then headed out to the car. I knew that I shouldn't be driving but I was tired. I was just glad that the cafeteria had a drink for a tired vampire hybrid. I hit the button on the key to unlock the car and slide behind the drivers wheel. I sat there for a moment and closed my eyes. I couldn't help but feel the adrenaline rush fade and fatigue set in. Shaking my head again, I shut the door and leaned the seat back. I knew if I fell asleep at the wheel I would be fine but I didn't want to endanger others. Sending a quick text to Dyson and telling him I would sleep for a few hours before heading home, I closed my eyes and dozed.
As I dozed, I thought back to the things that had happened the past five years. Hale and Macy got together and finally got married a little after a year of dating. I was thrilled for them because they seemed to be happy. Val was thrilled Hale found someone even if they weren't Fae because Macy was part vampire. Not only that, Val's gift didn't seem to work on Macy which caused a little friction between the two females. Zombie and Lucia liked to travel but always stopped by when they were in the neighborhood. Mikael and Ali were growing like crazy and for being only 5, they acted and looked around 8 or 9. Dyson said it had to do with the fact vampires mature faster then humans or Fae. I just agreed because it was something he knew and I didn't. I could still remember Dyson going crazy when he found blood in Mikael and Ali's pee and poop. I found it endearing but Dyson hated it.
I knew that we were finally going to live happy ever after because the war between vampires and werewolves stopped as soon as the twins were born. I was finally happy even if I needed to doze for a few hours before I headed home. Letting myself go deeper into sleep, I smiled as my dreams turned to my family.
(~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~)
Author Note – Ok here is the last chapter. It even had the Epilogue although it was at the end. I hope you liked the name of Bo and Lauren's daughter? Oh and I don't think I said but Bo's daughter will more or less be a succubus but she will be able to control her powers better then Bo because of her human side. I hope I also answered the questions about why Rainer was the sacrifice and not Lauren. If not pm me and I will try to explain it to you personally. Now, til my next story is started keep reading and reviewing...
THE END
