"Beth is worried about you."

Rebeka asked Jared to tell Abbie that she wanted to see her as he was leaving. He promised to do so.

Abbie came the next day. Rebeka was eating her lunch, enjoying the sun and view from outside her hospital window.

"I'm fine. Really. I'm good. I just have to deal with everything that went down, you know? It was hard. I was thrust into a world that I didn't know all of the consequences for it. I just have to work my way through it, you know?" She gave a small chuckle. "Joseph has been helping me out with everything. Seems he's really good at all this stuff."

"Yeah?" Rebeka raised an eyebrow. " I see."

Abbie gave a small grin, before she turned serious. "How are you? I think that out of everyone you were the one affected the most."

"I don't think about it." Rebeka looked back out the window. "I mean, when I look out this window and just watch the sun rise and set I can see such beauty- such good. There is evil, yes, but we fought it and Raul is dead. Yes, I was in physically pain for almost an hour and almost died, but everything worked out in the end. I'm good."

"Good. I'm glad." Abbie smiled. "We are strong enough to pull through, I'm gonna go talk to Beth now, though. You good?" Abbie stood up.

"Yeah. Thanks." Rebeka smiled as well. "I'm gonna finish my lunch."


Rebeka smiled as she stood outside the hospital walls. Almost a week since she had woken up and almost two weeks since Raul was killed. The sun was warm and fresh on her face. The feeling of freedom on her chest.

"This is nice, right Beth?" She turned to her friend and cousin, who was also leaving with her.

"Yeah. Real nice." Beth smiled. "Now its time to get married."

With all the free time they both had had, aside from people visiting, they had basically planned the whole wedding. Booking places and everything. Basically all that was needed to be done was cake testing, dress shopping, tux shopping, and the wedding. Rebeka could tell that Beth was extremely happy.

"Listen." Beth was off to Mars again. Jared was taking her home. "You call up Kenneth and talk to him sometime."

"I will." Rebeka gave her a hug as the Jared pulled the car up. "Ill see you around."

"Yep. Remember? Wedding in one month!"

"I know. Good-bye." Rebeka waved as Beth got into the car and drove away.

'Home I go. All alone." She muttered to herself. She turned and walked to the transportation area, right outside the hotel and transported back to her home planet. To arrive home 20 mintues later.

"Home sweet home."


Rebeka yawned and rubbed her eyes as she opened the door to her apartment the next morning.

Kenneth was there, with flowers.

"Hey.." He shuffled his feet nervously. " I was hoping we could talk."

She shut the door. She hadn't seen him since they first arrived on that god forsaken planet.

"Oh..ok...maybe next time. Ill leave the flowers for you." She could hear him through the door so she looked through the peephole. She watched him as he put the flowers on the floor, pressed up against her door and with one last look made his way down the hall and to the elevator.

The next day she awoke to the door being knocked on. She again went to open it.

Kenneth was there was another bouquet of flowers.

"Today better?" He was so hopeful it was almost childish.

"Listen, Kenneth, I really could be glad to never see you again for all I care." She didn't want to get up before 8 to just have him there. "So please. Just don't try anything."

She started to close the door, but he stopped her with his foot. "Just let me talk."

"Oh...of course. I mean you probably deserve to get your story out after all." She opened the door a bit and he moved his foot. "Oh but thats right. I forgot." Her eyes narrowed. "You were planning my death." She slammed the door shut before he could move his foot again.

He didn't come the next day. She still found herself awake before 8.


About a week later, Julian came and visited.

She made dinner for the two of them.

"How are you feeling?" Julian dung into the pasta dish. "Man, you cook just like dad"

"I'm good. You?" She felt so awkward around him now.

"So, so. Its hard to live in a world that you did so much damage to. Most days I can barely get myself to leave my room. I don't like seeing the good that people in this world have, not after everything I did to them." He sighed and put down his fork. "I wish that I had died."

"Don't wish that. Whatever went down was supposed to happen. How is Sydney?" She felt bad that he felt this way.

"Good. She is having a tough time getting back to normal life. Raul had such a hold on her." He stared at his food. "Listen...I know I have no right to tell you what to do and stuff...but Kenneth really wants to talk to you and I think it would be the best for both of you if you would let him."

She sighed. "One day, maybe. Right now, not so much."

"I understand..." He took his last bite and stood up. "I have to go. Sydney doesn't like it when I am gone for a long time."

"Yeah...ok. It was good to see you again."

He smiled and left.

She looked at her half eaten food and his finished plate. She wasn't even hungry. She pushed the plate aside. It was time to get away from everything. everyone.


When Kenneth tried knocking on her door a month later, she never answered. She wasn't there.

He called Sophie- she had been the only non-old-evil person he was able to get through. Though Abbie was warming up to him.

"She left, Kenneth." Sophie answered his question. "And I don't know when she will be back."

"I see. Can you..."

"I don't know if she will ever be back."

He dropped the phone on the ground.
