Author Note: Next chappie! XD Read on and find out what happens!

The alarm goes off at 6:30 and I roll out of bed and head towards the kitchen. Everything is the same as usual- Well, almost everything.

You see, just yesterday I found out that my mom was Commander Holly Short, my father's best friend. I know what you're thinking- it was nothing like that. Apparently they were married and when he died... Something happened- I just don't know.

But soon I will have answers. Mom has asked me to come by her office again today. And I will know why she hasn't been in my life. I will find out what really happened the night my father died. I have to admit though...I am a bit nervous. There must be a good reason to why I don't know already. Right?

Anyways, I sit down at the table with my breakfast, a cup of coffee and a blueberry muffin. I start to take a bit, but suddenly there is a knock on my door, so I walk into the living room and open the door. At first I was annoyed that someone was paying me a visit this early in the morning, but when I saw who it was my frown was turned upside down.

"Good morning, Cam."

It's my girlfriend, Belle. My sweet, amazing, gorgeous girlfriend. I step aside and let her in.

"Good morning Belle. What brings you here so early?"

She rolls her eyes, like I should already know what she wanted. But really, I had no idea. As usual. "Well, even though it's only been a day, there are all sorts of rumors going around. I was wondering if you could confirm them?"

I nod, realizing where this was going. She continues. "Apparently the word around the city is that Commander Holly Short is your mother- Is that true?"

I smile, my suspicions were correct. "Yes, she is my mother. I was quite surprised when she told me, but it makes sense. I'm going to head down to Police Plaza and talk to her today. She said she would answer any questions that I may have."

Belle pouts, her blue eyes pleading. "But I thought we were going to spend the day together... It's the first day you've had off in weeks."

I silently swear inside my head. How could I have forgotten? I could bring Belle with me and introduce her to Mom, but then again... maybe that's not a good idea at this moment. Especially considering who Belle is...

"Well- maybe you can come with me? I'm going to have to introduce you to her anyways- so, why not today?"

Belle frowns, obviously realizing the same thing that I did. She looks uncertain. I don't blame her. "I don't thing that's such a good idea. It might be too soon…"

I nod. "I was thinking the same thing. But, you know she'll want to meet you eventually. Might be best to get it over with now."

Belle is silent for a few moments. She looks like she is deep in thought. Which is normal for her. I smile, she would figure out something. She was good at coming up with solutions.

"Hmm…in that case, I guess I can come with you, but I'll wait outside until you finish talking to her. After she answers your questions, you can introduce me. Let's hope she'll understand."

I nod and head back into the kitchen to finish my breakfast. I think Belle's idea will work; her plans usually do. I can't help but think about her last statement though. Hopefully Mom will understand. If not- well... I tried right?

Thirty minutes later, I find myself in Police Plaza. Just like usual. Only, today was supposed to be my day off. I was here for more... personal- reasons.

Belle had decided to walk around the city, maybe do a little shopping, before she came. By the time she finished I should be done talking to Mom and they can meet each other. I just hope Mom can keep the events of the past to herself and move on. Accept things and not get too mad... Who am I kidding? She's going to be furious and there is nothing I can do about it. But she has a reason to be angry. Let's hope it doesn't last for too long though...

I enter the building and head straight for her office. She should be there by now. I'm anxious for answers...

I knock on the door and it's opened not even five seconds later.

"Yes? Who-? Oh, Cameron. Come in. It's good to see you here."

She seems to be in a good mood despite of yesterday's events. I was having trouble excepting the fact that I had just found out that I had a sister, only for her to be declared insane and shipped off to Atlantis. It must be even worse for her. I feel bad for her. I'm glad she's trying to stay in good spirits.

"Hey...Mom..." It feels weird calling her that. It's going to take a while to get used to. "You told me to come by and you would answer my questions. So, here I am!"

Mom smiles and motions for me to sit down. She takes a seat at her desk. "I did, didn't I. Well, what would you like to know? I'm all ears."

I take a breath. Here goes nothing. "I was hoping you could just tell me everything. Like, starting with what happened that night... you know- the night my father was killed…"

She sighs, she had obviously expected that. I know it must be tough to talk about it. But I need to know... "Okay, Cameron. It was a normal night, just like any other night really-"

Well, you guys know the drill. Review! The more reviews I get, the sooner I'll update! Thanks! XD

Oh, and Belle isn't her real name. It's just her nickname. A shortened version of her first name. ;D
