A/N: I apologize profusely for how long it took to get this next part to y'all. Life and work has gotten in the way. But, I do know where it's going, I just haven't gotten there yet.

oOOOOo

Kerry sat in the airport, her laptop open in front of her, on, but untouched. She nearly jumped when it made a noise and the little notification popped up that someone wanted to talk to her over Skype. She frowned and opened it up. Her daughter's face stared back at each other, Kerry smiled back as Leonora spoke, "Hi Mama!"

Then Kerry realized that there didn't seem to be anyone else anywhere around her. She raised her voice just a little bit, "Sullivan..."

It wasn't Sullivan who appeared, but Henry. "Sorry Mama, sorry, Mama..."

Kerry still frowned, "It's not your fault Henry, where is Sullivan?"

After a few moments Sullivan also crowded into the picture. "I apologize for that Kerry. You have a slippery one here, I think one day she'll probably be a secret agent, hackin' places and sneaking into them too. Back to nap time little Lee..."

That left Henry in front of the computer. "Mama, you look sad."

Kerry smiled, "Just missing you Henry. Go help Sullivan get Lee to actually go to sleep, 'kay?"

Henry made a face, "I hafta sing the song 'cause you're not here?"

Kerry chuckled, "You'll do a great job Henry. Do you really want Sullivan to do it?" Henry made a face, "I thought so. I love you Henry. And your sister."

"Love you too Mama."

The screen winked off and Kerry sighed. She nearly jumped when a male voice spoke, "Is this seat taken?"

She looked up, "Ah, no..."

The young man had a mess of curly bright red hair, a bunch of freckles over his nose, and a smile on his face. "I'm Bob, Bob Nelson. I think... I think I know you from somewhere."

Kerry gave her best 'go away' smile, "I don't believe so Mr. Nelson."

Bob sat down and narrowed his eyes, being silent for a long moment. Before either Kerry or Bob could say anything though they were interrupted by a woman with slightly darker red hair. "Bobby, are you freaking out the wo... Kerry."

Kerry was doubly confused. She was pretty sure that she had no clue who the newcomers were, and yet, they seemed to know her. "I'm sorry, I didn't catch your name."

The woman held out a hand, "Bridget, Bridget Nelson, well... it used to be Bridget Williams. And while my mom was also a Williams for a while, before that she was..."

"Kingsley. You're..."

Bridget gave a sheepish smile, "Yep. Your half sister."

oOOOOo

"Will you turn that racket down Kimberly." Kim did so as Roberta came into the garage. "Is that the Requiem?" Kim shrugged, "What's wrong?"

"Nothing."

Roberta came all the way into the garage and took the tool from Kim's hand. She became even more worried when Kim didn't try to stop her. "Something is wrong."

"No. I'm fine."

Roberta pulled Kim to her feet. "Early lunch."

"Roberta, I can't just..."

The older woman pulled Kim away from the car and into the office. "Yes. You're coming with me."

oOOOOo

Kerry sat in her seat on the plane and stared straight ahead. The flight attendant stopped by her. "Ma'am? Do you need anything?"

Kerry shook her head, "No... no thank you."

The flight attendant gave her a smile, "Just wanted to make sure. You seemed overwhelmed."

Kerry sighed, "It always seems as though once I get on solid footing someone pulls the rug out from under me."

"Well, I hope you find your footing again."

Kerry leaned her head back against the headrest and closed her eyes.

After Bridget had dropped the bomb Kerry had sat there, stunned. "I- your mother didn't tell me your name... you and your brother's names."

Bridget smiled. And Kerry's first thought was that it was the exact same smile that Helen had. "I'm Bridget, my brother's Peter... Peter Jr. after our father."

"Are you..."

Bob interrupted Kerry, "We're going home. Isn't that crazy. I'm from Chicago originally and Bridget's pregnant so we visited my Mom here and are going home." He paused, "And you really do remind me of someone."

Bridget put a hand on Bob's shoulder and he fell silent. "Sorry- you're overwhelming her Bob. Are you flying home?"

"Ah... no. I have an interview."

"That's good. How are Sandy and Henry?"

"Ah..." Kerry frowned, "Your mother told you about them?"

Bianca winced, "Oh man. She ranted and ranted and prayed and..." at Kerry's look Bridget held up both hands. "I love my Mom, but I don't agree with her in this case. and I told her that she should stop being a stubborn ass and apologize to you." Bridget paused, "Is that why you're calling her- my mother- and not ours?"

"Henry is doing great. Sandy... she died nine years ago. As for my mother. Leonora Weaver was my mother. My father was Henry Weaver. They didn't have to love me, they chose to, even after they weren't presented with a whole baby, but me with my disability. They never blinked, and, I will never know for sure, but I think me loving women wouldn't have made them love me less either."

That caused the conversation to ground to an uncomfortable halt and soon after their flight was called.

oOOOOo

They sat in the church. Neither speaking. It was finally Roberta who broke the silence. "You don't wear your cross anymore."

"God doesn't exist."

Roberta stared at Kim for a long minute, "Kimberly, you know..."

"Nothing. I know nothing Roberta. Nothing. I'm a damn psych doc who can't fucking get herself out of her own damn hole." She turned towards Roberta, "Do you think I want to be like this, stuck wherever the hell I'm stuck- I just can't- I... I..." Kim put her head in her hands, "I miss them all- so damn much Robbie."

"Oh, honey..." she wrapped her arms around Kim and they sat there as Kim let it all out.

oOOOOo

"Do you have somewhere to stay?"

Kerry smiled, "The airport. I'm going right back."

Janet frowned, "Kerry-"

Kerry held a hand up, "My kids are still there, that's why I'm going right back, but I'm also not changing my mind." She paused, "If I've passed muster."

Janet smiled, "Oh... they're all more worried that I'll feel threatened with you here."

Kerry shook her head, "No. I'm- not her anymore. Lee, Henry, friends and keeping County a great ER. Those are my goals."

Janet put an arm around Kerry, "What about love Kerry?"

Kerry narrowed her eyes at Janet, "Don't even think about it Coburn. No set ups. I love LEe. I love Henry. So I'm going home to them. Give me a call with the details and we'll see when I can start. And, say hello to Judy for me."

Janet opened her mouth, then smiled and nodded. "Bypassing the ER?"

Kerry nodded. "For now, yes. Thank you Janet." She held out her hand. Janet took a hold of it and pulled Kerry in for a hug. "Have a safe flight."

oOOOOo

Kim sat in front of her laptop, spreadsheets open willy nilly. Her phone rang. "Hello."

"Is it ready?"

"It is. You can pick it up anytime tomorrow. Roberta will let you in if I'm not here."

Julian Legaspi paused, "You okay sis?"

Kim cleared her throat, "Yep. I'm good. Have fun at the party."

"Kimmy... you're invited too. You know that. Jon and Matt would love to see their cool Aunt there. I'm just their boring Uncle."

Kim closed her eyes, "I'll see them soon. Love ya Julian."

"Ah, yeah, love you too Sis."

Kim hung up, opened her browser and started typing.

oOOOOo

Kerry was home. Leonora and Henry were tucked in. She relaxed on the couch and finally focused on her computer screen.

The new message icon had appeared. Kerry clicked on it and frowned. She hadn't responded to Kim, she'd been too busy, so she wondered what Kim had to say.

Dear HLM,

I'm sorry if I led you on or anything along those lines. I need to get my head on straight, so to speak. I wish you well in life and love.

~Ms. Turing

P.S. For the record, my first name is Kimberly. After my maternal grandfather.

Kerry frowned and opened Skype. She clicked on one of her contacts, a recently re-installed contact. She blinked as David Malucci popped onto the screen. "Hey soon to be boss."

Kerry considered her answer for a brief second, "I see that the grapevine is still robust."

Dave gave a nod, "Yep. I assume you want to talk to the temp. boss?" He paused, "You have any clue why she passed on the job?"

"I don't... David?"

Dave looked away from the camera, "Hey... Lockhart. See you soon Ch.. Doctor Weaver."

Dave started to step away, but Kerry's voice brought him back into camera range. "David. When I start as the Chief I'd like to have a little... chat."

"Ah..."

Kerry put a finger up, "Not now. When I'm there."

The smile was off Dave's face, "Of course-" He paused and a small smirk came back, "I think I see a UTI I should go tend to."

After a moment Abby appeared. "Kerry. What's up?"

"I need you to check on Kim. Please."

Abby frowned, "Why?"

"Abby."

"Kerry."

"I'm- worried. Please don't ask me why Abby. When I..."

Abby cut Kerry off, "Okay, okay. I will. Are you doin' okay? I didn't see you when you were up here."

Kerry smiled, "Soon you'll see more than you want of me Abigail."

"True, true. I'll email you what I find out."

"Thank you Abby."

Abby smirked, "You'll owe me. Talk to you later."
