"Some folk we never forget, some kind we never forgive," -Neil Finn
Three Years Later
"You sure this is the place, Sarah?"
"Solembum told me how it worked, we should be here."
"Because he is always truthful."
"Hey, be nice to her husband!"
"Some things never change."
"You sent the letters, didn't you?"
"Of course, they should be-"
"Oh my goodness!"
The group of eleven looked up from their picnic in Central Park to see wide eyes brimmed with tears.
Thanks to magic, Ellie, Meg, Sarah, Brooke and Rebecca had managed to travel to their own world with their own families to see the family they had left behind.
"You've been missing for years," Ellie's mother whispered. "We thought you were-"
"Dead," Meg's step-father finished.
"Far from it, actually," Rebecca said, her hand upon her swollen belly as she winked to Meg who had yet to tell anyone other than the girls that she was with her and Murtagh's first child besides Elva.
Ellie and the girls explained everything and showed them bits and pieces of magic to prove it. Then, they broke off into separate groups to speak to their own family.
"Mom, Dad, Jackie, Ben," Ellie said to her parents and siblings. "This is my fiance, Eragon."
"What happened to you?" Emily exclaimed when Sarah and Solembum, in cat form, approached.
"I thought we explained this," Solembum murmured. Her parents, sister and brothers, Jerry and Nick, gawked.
"Look on the bright side, I may be a cat, but now I can travel back and forth between worlds, thanks to Solembum!"
"Oh, Rebecca!" Her mother cried. "This is such news!" Roran was welcomed instantly, both her sisters, Courtney and Fallon, quizzing him on everything.
"Boulder?" Natalia said. "That's your nickname?"
"It's better than Stream," Keven pointed out.
"True."
"Be nice, you two!" Brooke's mother and father said in unison.
"Pregnant?!" Murtagh exclaimed.
"Sorry, I can't hide anything from Avery," Meg said, gesturing to her sister. "Elva, this is your aunt, and these are your step-grandparents."
Somewhere, far away, a couple looked down upon them and smiled.
"This was fun," The woman said.
"Indeed," The man agreed. "Perhaps we should do it again."
The woman raised an eyebrow, "With who?" She followed her husband's gaze to the siblings of the girls. "Perhaps, but for now, give them peace."
The End.
Brooke: IT'S OVER, IT'S DONE!
*silence*
Brooke: NO! I was waiting for someone to tell me that there was more but there's not! I'm going to miss you guys so much!
Ellie: Bye, guys, I gotta go visit a friend who's in the middle of their shoot! I'll talk to you soon, love you!
Rebecca: I have to go visit family, I'll see you guys eventually! Love you, too!
Brooke: Rebecca, LET ME COME WITH YOU! I NEED A FRIEND!
Meg: I have to go shoot the last scene in the Mummy, I make a cameo! I'll tell Jackie you say hi, Ellie! MISSYOULOVEYOUBYE!
Sarah: After all this time, I finally get to take off this ridiculous cat costume...I DON'T WANT TO! When I'm 80, I'll put on a cat costume for Halloween and my family will look to me and ask "After all this time?" and I'll say: "Always."
Meg: That's an Alan Rickman quote, oh, no, I'm tearing up again!
The girls: NO!
Wow, guys, it's been a long emotional journey with dozens of ups and downs and twists and turns. Thanks to everyone who put in a review, favorite or follow and if you want to catch some cameo appearances, check out some of my other stories. The next on my list is The Mummy! If you were wondering who Jamie Hill is, who stole the disclaimers at the beginning of this whole thing, she's one of the main characters in The Legends, a fanfiction about the Avengers which will be gaining its sequel hopefully in a few months! Thank you so much for your support, Ellie, Meg, Sarah, Rebecca and Brooke thank you and love you all and as a final note,
Meg finally got her Lord of the Rings book back.
:)
A Keeper
