Here is chapter two for Life After! I hope you read and enjoy this please leave a review. I don't own Sky high in case you thought I did.

June 14th 2001, four months old.

I sat on the floor in the den, Layla and the gang sat around me watching the twins roll from their back to belly then back again. As I was doing school stuff on my laptop, I was so tired.

"He looks like Warren, but with aqua in his eyes as well and your button nose," Leah said with a smile.

"Serenity looks like you Lillian with a bit of brown in her eyes," Layla said looking at her niece.

I yawned, I had started two college courses this summer, and the benefit was my four years would only take three to finish. My friends all pitched in watching the twins when I had to be in class. I was accepted because I was very smart, not many people could get into Potentia (power) Academy. A college for all super beings, I was out of my mind, I was still doing high school from my house, teachers coming and going. Now college and raising Ares and Serenity, I was tired but in the end it would be worth it.

"Why don't you let us help more, all you do is let us watch them so you can go to school. You're tired and are trying to be super mom, you're over worked," Sparrow said.

"I am fine," I said in a final tone so no one would question me.

As I removed the flash drive containing my paper on Physiological affect from my laptop. Dice was sitting with little Serenity while she drank her bottle. I picked up Ares and got him feed, he always ate more than Serenity. Serenity was still small and not very long, while Ares is getting bigger and longer by the day, he is over tall for being only four months old. They both are meeting every milestone and exceeding them.

"How is college anyways?" Will asked.

"It's good I enjoy it," I said.

I started to burp Ares while Lash sat right next to me, our thighs touching. I could tell Leah and Dice were giving Lash nasty looks. I know they have something against Lash because they now feel I should be with Warren when he gets out, but I don't know any more. I cleaned up the twins while I asked.

"So anyone have plans for the summer?" I asked.

"No," was said 20 times.

Jennifer's wedding was a month away, I was helping her plan it every day. And now everything was nearly ready she would have a lavish wedding fit for a princess. Ares and Serenity had to be the ring bearer and flower girl they had every one wrapped around their tiny fingers. Ares had dark brown hair he would end up with his father's build. His little lips where the bottom lip if fuller his chubby cheeks, his eyes are dark like Warrens with flecks of aqua. His leaner little body always near Serenity with her tiny features her full pout lips. She was a quiet little thing while Ares made his presents know. She likes to look and observe while Ares tried to roll away. Her pale skin and almond shaped eyes broken Steve and Jared's hearts she would be very stunning when she was older. My mom said I was the same way when I was a baby, Willow said Ares is a lot like Warren as well.

"How was today's visit?" Jennifer asked.

I handed Serenity to Layla for a change while I changed Ares he was harder as he tried to roll away. He smiled up at me as I finished I tickled his belly, he cooed and laughed. Layla did the same with Serenity and she let out a peal of small giggles, Ares head went towards Serenity and he smiled.

"It was good but the damn judge won't even let us show him pictures. I am really getting pissed, the twins will hate him when he gets out so all we do is talk," Leah said slamming her hand in frustration.

"Good, I mean he doesn't deserve them, he made his choices," Lash said and he had a point.

"Lash is right, Lily pad what gave him so many chances to change and be with her. I don't believe he ever loved her, it was his sick twisted game how can you not choose your mate," Will chimed in and I agreed I was his mate and he rejected me.

I always felt that way whenever Warren was talked about, I believe he never cared either. "Stop not in front of my babies, I don't want their father ever talked about in a negative way around them. I don't want us fighting we are friends damn it, I have felt the same as Will about Warren and it being a sick game," I said I watched Leah walk away.

"I understand why you feel that way and so does Leah," Dice said giving me a light kiss on the lips.

July 3 rd 2001 -five months old.

Jennifer's wedding was a very lavish affair, it was beautiful. It was truly blessed, the days turned in to months, as school work and the twins grew. I decided to stay with home school so I could get more college done and be with the twins more. I was determined to make something of myself so the twins had a good role model. My dad and Battle simply adored the twins and they saw their grandpas once a week each. Everyone told me how proud they are, I am doing two different schools with raising the twins by myself.

October 31st 2001- eight months old.

Today was the twins first Halloween, I was thrilled. My mother was throwing a Halloween party tonight. Serenity and Ares waved bye to Grandma and Grandpa then Jared would sneak back in to get a second goodbye from the twins.

I sat on the floor inside the huge play area, doing an essay for Mr. Levine from Sky high, and then a term paper for Potentia on the Civilian and Super Human mind. I always did my work while they played; it was an easy way to get it done. Principal Powers became the Dean of Potentia and Willow Peace became Principal Peace of Sky high. I heard she was awesome as principal, she was strict but fair.

I looked up to see Ares and Serenity sitting up by them self's, jabbering to each other. I smiled wondering what they are really saying. I watched them crawl to the toys, then I resume my work, and soon enough I am finished. I get up and put my work away then scoop up the twins for a feeding and change.

We head upstairs for a bath before nap time, as they napped I was able to go downstairs and clean then do some laundry. I went room to room cleaning, while I stopped to fold a load then resume cleaning. Then I heard a soft whimper from the baby monitor and I ran up the stairs before she woke Ares. I saw Serenity watching her brother sleep. I picked her up rocking her, her long black curls bouncing. She smiled at me showing me four tiny white teeth. I got her dressed her magenta hat and scarf around her; I had to go to the store for baby food and candy.

I put her in her car seat as I picked up my zombie boy, I was able to change and dress him without waking him. I put his black beanie with "zombie boy" written on it. I buckled him in his car seat and took their car seats and bag downstairs.

3 hours later

I drove to Shadow Fox's house, she made a ladybug costume for Serenity and she found mini leather gloves with no fingers that would fit Ares. She loved the twins and they loved her back, I only stayed for a few minutes, they needed another nap.

4:10 pm

I had a huge bowl of yummy candies for the kids in town next to the front door. I heard a loud whimper as me and Jennifer raced up the stair's in which I won. Ares was sitting up close to his sister rubbing her small head softly.

"A miniature Warren I tell you," Jennifer said in a tone of voice that said I told you so, didn't I.

Ares looked up at me smiling his four teeth showing he cooed then said "Mama". My eyes shot open and watered at the same moment. Jennifer squealed at hearing Ares first word, I was so happy; I picked him up from the crib.

"Yes, Ares I am your Mama," I cooed to him.

"Mama," he said again I kissed his head.

Jennifer took Ares for a change then she would put him in to his Halloween costume, she was kissing his small face as she walked.

I saw an angel when I looked at a wide awake Serenity; she was waiting for me so I scooped her right up. Her black curls in disarray around her tiny head. She smiled at me with her beautiful eyes I kissed her tiny cheeks.

"Mama," she said not to be out done by Ares.

"My Serenity, I love you," I said with a smile for her.

"Jennifer look at what Serenity said as well," I said.

I stood next to Jennifer as we changed them and it was a task in its self.

"What can you say Serenity," I cooed.

"Mama," she said with a baby smile.

"Serenity such a smart girl yes you are, oh you too Ares so smart," Jennifer cooed to them.

Serenity was adorable in her lady bug costume; Ares looked like Warren when Jennifer was done. He had on a long sleeved black shirt with a red over shirt, faded jeans, boots and his gloves he even had on a mini belt buckle.

The party was a hit the twins repeated "Mama" all night long.

"Hey Princess," Lash said.

"Hey Lash," I said giving him a hug.

We stood watching as Steve and Jared played with the twins. I felt his hand slip into mine, he turned me to face him. I didn't think he would but he kissed me it was slow at first then he made it more. I had my hands on his chest I pushed him away so I could breath.

"Lash," I warned.

"Princess I love you," he said kissing me again I tried to give him a gentle push. But he held me tighter then I felt him being moved from me with force.

I looked to see Dice with a cold fury on his face his body in front of mine as heat poured off him.

"She was pushing you away Lash, you have Fate and Destiny leave Lillian alone," Dice growled out.

"I love Lillian more than them, I have already told them, and I love her more than Warren ever did," Lash snarled at Dice and I was ready to hit one of them.

"Enough boys, your friends stop this," My mother said in a firm voice.

I felt alone more now than ever; every one of my friends had somebody but me. I turned down dates, I had enough on my hands I didn't want another man.

"They are adorable," my mom said she was holding Serenity while Willow held Ares in her arms.

"Thanks," I said.

I saw Dice and Leah talking and pointing at Lash and Will who were laughing and Lash was blushing.

"Josie can you take my sweet grandbaby Ares, I need to talk to Lily" Willow asked. Josie was happy to take the baby from her and she cooed to Ares who loved attention. I sat in the garden with Willow watching the party from here the lights looked beautiful.

"How are you?" Willow asked.

"Good," I said.

"Both schools are great, and I am tried but I am a single mother so it is to be expected," I continued in a flat tone.

"Do you feel alone? We are worried you never ask for help you do it all on your own," she went on to ask.

"I am alone, thank your son for that, do you see him here with us helping. It was his job to help me with the twins, but I was just a sick game. Power is all he was after and now he is in prison, did anyone figure that the twins would grow to hate their father, and when he gets out it won't change their feelings," I snapped with frustration.

"I will at some point have to tell them he is in prison; I don't want them to think he abandoned us, even though he kind of did. What about them they have to grow up without their father and I HATE him for it. I hate him so much, so I am alone me and him made them and where is he not here with our family,' I said my anger turning into tears.

She looked calm when I hated on her only son, saying bad things about him.

"I know how you feel, I only had Warren when you have the twins," she said.

"But we are your family let us help you, you're not alone as you want to be. Warren loves hearing about the twins and about you he worries about you over working yourself. He will be so happy the twin's first word was "Mama" as it should be," She said.

"I could care less about how he feels, I have more reason to hate him than anyone," I said looking away with tears in my eyes.

I walked away before I ended up hurting her feelings, I love her, and it's her son I hate. I walked back to the party, I grabbed Ares while Dice had a little Serenity bug in his arms. He was looking at her with so much love and adoration. He was always around me trying to be a father figure to them, I watched Leah smile at him.

Then my world spun and crashed, I had my arm around Leah and hers around mine. Dice had his arm us both and Layla was video recording it for future blackmail later.

Serenity was pulling on Dices long brown hair, looking right at him when she said "Dada" I think she thought he was her father.

"I am sorry," I said I looked at Leah and Dice with a shocked face.

"No never say you're sorry, there is nothing wrong at all with what she said," Leah said trying to pull me into a hug. When Ares held his arms out to Dice who took him and kissed his forehead. I saw Ares smile, then he followed Serenity's lead he said "Dada" I ran into the bathroom locking myself in.I sat on the floor crying, I hate Warren Peace at this very moment.

My family and friends knocked trying to get in, but I refused needing to be alone. I wanted to go to the prison and break in if I had too and beat the shit out of Warren.

I stood when I heard Dice pounding on the door threatening to kick it down. I let him in and I saw Lash walking to the door before Dice smiled and slammed it while he smiled at Lash.

"Honey there is nothing wrong with what the twins said. Leah and I knew it was going to happen. We are a family no matter what, I love you very much and I think of the twins as my own," he said pulling me in to his lap. He just held me letting me know I wasn't alone that I had people around me.

One hour later

"Come on lets go put them down for bed," Layla said.

So we walked up the stairs and into the twins bathroom, they loved the bath. They splashed and got water every were once their hair and bodies are clean we take them out. We dried them off before they got a diaper and clothes on, I brush through Serenity's black curls and Layla combed through Ares dark hair. Jennifer came in scooping up Serenity putting a warm bottle of breast milk in her hungry mouth. Layla fed Ares while I cleaned the bathroom.

November 1st 2001 8 months old.

Leah's point of view.

I wait with Dice, I feel so bad for Lillian she feels so responsible for the twins saying "Dada" to Dice. We were thrilled they thought of him like that, than Auntie was crushed at her conversation with Lillian. But she could understand where Lillian was coming from. I tapped my foot in frustration, Dice tried to calm me but she was like a sister and she was hurting. And Lash putting his dirty hands on her argh I said mentally he revolted me to no end.

"Dice Darken, Leah La faytte please follow me to the visiting area," the guard said.

We walked feet behind him, and we turned down a long hallway seeing the door at the far end, I walked a little faster. The guard let us through I saw Warren with a confused look on his face at my pissed off face.

"Leah is everything okay?" Warren asked.

"No it's not Warren, do you want to know why," I snapped at him.

"Yes," he answered.

"Leah no, calm yourself first, it won't help to yell at him," Dice said I gave him a death glare.

"Warren the twins said their first word last night," Dice said in a polite tone.

"Wow at 8 months, they are smart," Warren smiled warmly.

"It was "Mama"," Dice went on.

"I bet Lillian was thrilled with that," Warren said with a smile.

"She was then her and your mom went to talk in the garden. Now Warren you have to keep calm or they will cut our visit short and you won't hear everything and you need to hear it all," Dice said with a warning.

"Go head," Warren bit out.

"I saw Lash kiss Lillian last night, she did try and push him away, but he just held her closer his tongue half way down her throat. I ripped him off her and he said he loves her more then you ever did. Him and Will have Lillian convinced what you said a while ago about her being a sick game is true. Mom told us she had a small talk with Lillian in the garden but it turned bad. Mom asked Lillian if she was alone or felt alone and Lillian said she was because your game and she hates you for making the twins grow up without you. She is so worried the twins will grow to hate you and the fact she is doing it alone because of you," Dice said.

I watched Warrens face twist with fury and pain at what Dice was saying. Half of me felt bad for Warren, the other side didn't care if he was hurting.

"She is just so hurt right now; Lash won't stop trying to be with he,r he even found his mate. He told his mate he loves Lillian more than her. Then the twins said "Dada"," Dice said.

I saw Warrens face fall at this, he was on the verge of a breakdown. He was going from pissed to hurt so fast, he was going to blow soon.

"Who Dice just tell me," Warren said his head hung low.

"Don't worry it was me," Dice said.

"Lillian locked herself in the bathroom; I almost had to kick it down so I could talk to her. She felt bad because they called me that when I am with Leah who Lillian is very close too," Dice said.

"Man was it worth it, now that you know everything was choosing Warlord over your ex family worth it," I said.

"No it wasn't nothing was worth losing my family," Warren said in defeat.

"I never meant she was just a game or that I never loved her, her and the twins are the first and last thing I think about every day. Now Lash and Stronghold are working together to pull her away from me, she is mine." Warren said in a demented voice. He blamed them when he pushed her away she tried for him she saved him she cared.

"She fucking hates YOU right now asshole, she believes YOUR stupid words. After everything YOU have done she still saved YOU putting her life on the line injecting YOU. She battled YOU to bring the twins into a safe world. She barley eats, barely sleeps, she goes to Sky high and Potentia College while raising twins with no help from YOU. YOU pushed her away no one else just but YOU, she still hasn't told anyone why you killed Amp. And YOU did something pretty fucking horrible to where she wakes up screaming from the nightmares it gives her," I snarled at Warren.

I watched him the whole time, as his face changed emotions so fast but the last thing I said about Lillian's nightmare's his eyes and face looked dead inside. So it was horrible whatever he did to her it also broke her inside.

"Whatever you did broke her inside Warren," Dice said.

"You'll hate me if I tell you, then ya'll won't ever come and see me even though mom knows and she still sees me," Warren said with a dead voice.

"You said you were tricked before you killed Amp, so it wasn't your entire fault. No matter what I will still come twice a week to see you brother," Dice said.

"It was my birthday and it was Lillian's number that sent me a text. I didn't know she had her cell stolen two days prior. I texted her back even though I thought she was acting weird, but I chalked it up to her being pregnant. She wanted me, she said so, so I went to the movies and took her in the bathroom. She was crying after and during she screamed at me and I hit her hard then I slammed her against the wall calling her a lying whore. Then she told me her phone was stolen, so I sent I text saying I was on my way to fuck her. I got a text back a minute later saying she was waiting for me," Warren broke down.

"I hated myself and I picked her up off the floor trying to talk to her, but her eyes said enough. I left and found out who tricked me then I killed her," Warren finished.

I couldn't believe my ears Warren raped Lillian and he was tricked into it. She never said a word to anyone, she bottled it up inside now she has terrible nightmares about it.

"I can't believe it, I don't know what to say really you where tricked and Lillian never said anything so deep down she understood as well," Dice said.

"I will try and keep Lash away from her but if she wants him or anyone I won't stop her Warren. She is beautiful and men ask her out all the time but she refuses she is giving school and the twins her all," Dice said.

"I understand why now, but it makes no difference you'll most likely never get her back twelve years. Warren twelve years she can't refuse every man and she won't wait for you," I said.

I watched an uncontrolled rage erupted from him as he tossed the bench which was pure concrete across the courtyard. As he bellowed with rage. Fire licked his body as he couldn't control himself. Dice stood in front of me. Warren looked scary with the wild flames 20 feet in the air.

"She is mine, always, she hates me!" he was screaming pulling at his long hair. The guards rushed forward and tried to put him out but he was to angry. Dice burned himself getting through to an enraged Warren, his brother and his future brother in law. It still took another 15 minutes before Warren was giving off thick black smoke.

"She is mine and I forced her to hate me," Warren said sagging to his knees while I rubbed the cream on Dice's hands.

"You both must leave now he will be okay," our guard took us back to the waiting area.

December 25th 2001 - 9 months old

It was the twins first Christmas; I was just finishing my term paper and my hot chocolate when I went to put my work away. I walked to my room setting my baby monitor on my end table I welcomed the darkness of sleep.

I woke to a small cry I knew it was Serenity; I rushed almost falling over my own feet. I walked into adjuring room; I scooped her up in to my arms. I gave her a diaper change she made a boom, boom. I saw it was 6am I sighed out loud; I put her in her swing while it played soft music. I hurried downstairs I passed my mother. Then I ran back upstairs with two warm bottles in hand.

I walked into the room seeing Ares looking at Serenity, I set down the bottles. I changed him as well and he smiled up at me, his eyes had nothing but love shining in them.

"Mama up" Ares said.

I picked him up and he laughed showing me all his teeth and they hurt like hell if one of them bite you. They slept in different cribs but pushed together. I picked up Serenity and sat in the rocking chair with them, feeding them. I burped them before I put them into their Christmas clothes for the day ahead.

"Did Santa come Ares?" I asked him as we walked down stairs both of them in my arms.

"Yes," in his tiny husky baby voice.

"What do you think Serenity, did Santa come?" I asked.

"Me yes," Serenity with her tinker bell voice.

I smiled at the pair of them.

We walked with their hands in mine into the kitchen looking for grandma and grandpa.

"Look at my grandbabies; you both look like Christmas angels. Come to grandma and grandpa," my mom said.

"Can you watch them so I can shower and change my clothes?" I asked my mother.

"Go Lillian we got this, please take your time, Layla and your dad since you went yesterday," My mother said.

"Lillian," she called.

"Yeah," I said.

"I love you," she said.

"You too mom," I said walking way.

I felt great after the hot shower doing everything twice letting the water hit my skin. I dried off and started my hair and make-up making myself look nice. I pulled on a short barley knee length green dress with black heels, Christmas earrings and necklace. I went back downstairs seeing a lot of my friends here waiting.

Noon

I sat with the twins on my knees bouncing them, when Layla and Will walked in. Dice, Leah and Willow following five minutes behind them. I put them on their feet on the floor watching them crawl, I gave Leah a hug.

"DADA" was screamed by the twins.

"I tried to teach them uncle," I said to Leah but she slapped my shoulder.

We all walked into the den which looked as if Santa forgot all the other kids and only stopped here. I gave a glare to everyone, Steve and Josie smiled. The twins clapped with glee at the sight and we sat on the floor.

Magenta and I changed the babies on the floor; I had Serenity while she took Ares. When Ares began to crawl away from her, with no diaper on heading for the gifts from Santa.

"No Ares!" Magenta cried.

Ares looked back at her with a Warren like smirk; he stood and took his first steps. I laughed when Serenity on shaking legs went after Ares.

6pm

I sat outside I let Sue and Edward watch the twins she is now two months pregnant. I was happy for them they looked so happy together.

"Hey Lily," Dice and Leah said sitting next to me on both sides.

"Hey," I said.

"He was composed this visit he doesn't really talk anymore, he just sits and stares. And all we hear is he is working on getting his entire mechanics license and he works out every day." Leah said.

"Sorry," I replied.

"He is worrying everyone, but he will snap out of it when he gets his head on straight." Dice chimed in.

"No one hates him more than himself," Willow said.

"I do and so does Lash, right Lash," Will said.

"Yes," Lash said.

"Go away I don't want to hear this right now," I said.

"He doesn't know why he did all the things he did, but I am going with Dice and Leah to go clean and pack up my son's apt tomorrow. He warned me it's odd, but he wants it for when he gets out he said there is a box under his bed for you, is it okay if I bring it to you," Willow said.

"Yes Willow it wouldn't be a problem," I said with a kind voice as she stroked my hair.

"His apt isn't odd, it's downright fucking creepy," Dice said.

"I know I would offer to help but it freaks me out,," I laughed with Dice.

"NO ARES!" I heard then saw Sue running across the lawn after a fully naked Ares. Layla trialing behind her video tapping it. Serenity was giggling and clapping, egging the now mobile Ares on she was in Edward's arms.

In less than two months Ares and Serenity Peace would be a year old.
