More Will and Chelsea. and there will be more Sanhay and Rachel to come

Will was not accustomed to feeling so powerless. All his money had always been able to fix problems in the past. He had assumed that it would be the same with Chelsea and her illness. But all the planning, and all the money he'd put into this project, it had failed due to homan error. When Will had found the doctor that had specialized in human replication, he thought the answers to his problems had been found. Of course he had kept all of this quiet from Chelsea. Chelsea would not have wanted this to happen. Everything was staring to work, but then they had let the girl get away! Will was fuming. It was only intensified by the fact that Chelsea's condition was getting worse. Her doctor couldn't explain why her health was declining so much, all he kept saying was that she needed a miracle. Their miracle, unfortunately, had gotten away.

Will no longer cared about the reputation of the company. He wanted to find the answers no matter what. He was not willing to allow Chelsea to die because people in Flowerbud could not keep track of one girl! Will tried to calm himself before he entered Chelsea's room. He did not allow her to see his stress, he feared if she saw him stressing, she would worry. She didn't need to worry about anything but herself at this point.

"What are you doing here?" Chelsea asked when he entered the room. Will was suprised to hear his wife sounding so irritated. Typically she enjoyed their nightly visits.

"Visiting you my love," Will replied.

"Wasn't today your father's birthday party?" she asked. Will looked chagrined. He was hoping she would not remember that. He did not want to go without her, and she was too weak to attend a party.

"Well, why aren't you there?" Chelsea asked.

"How can I be there when you're here?" Will asked in return. Chelsea struggled to sit up.

"Then we'll both go," Chelsea stated, she was short of breath from attempting to sit up on her own in bed.

"Chelsea, you know that party is going to be too much for you," Will insisted. He was trying to be gentle with her. He knew when she was like this there was little reasoning with her.

"Your father has done so much for us, and for you to ingnore him in this fashion on his birthday, it's deplorable!" Chelsea scolded.

"Well then I'll go, you stay," WIll insisted.

"But-"

"No buts!" Will interrupted. "You are not going. I will go, but I don't want you to get sick as a result of this." Chelsea sighed, and laid her head back down on her pillow. She closed her eyes, and Will breathed out with relief. He didn't want to upset Chelsea, it would only make her condition worse. He slipped out of the room, as he was leaving he dialed Vaughn's cell phone.

"How you holding up?" Jack asked Gwen. He had called Gwen for a status update on the investigation. Usually he would have gone to her office, but these days it was too dangerous for him to be seen associating with her. He was getting closer to Vaughn, and didn't want his true identity to be revealed. He also didn't want to be left out of the details of the investigation. Jack heard Gwen sigh heavily over the phone. He knew what it was like to lose a loved one because of Vaughn. He was more determined than ever to bring the man down. They just needed to get the proper evidence. Both he and Gwen knew Vaughn was guilty of Kurt's murder.

"I..." Gwen started. "I'm okay I guess. I am not really sure what to think to be honest." Gwen didn't say anything else. She appreciated Jack asking her, but she was too hurt to say anything else. She knew that Vaughn was responsible. There could be no one else who was capable of doing something so terrible to him. She also knew from experience that because of his association with Maion corporation, even if he did go to trial, he would be represented by the most expensive, most experienced attorneys. Kurt had been the love of her life, and now he was gone. It seeemed surreal. It was completely unfair that Vaughn was living his life here in Flowerbud, and Kurt was buried in the ground. It angered Gwen and she wanted justice.

"I am establishing a bond with Vaughn," Jack stated. "It's helping me get closer to him. I am hoping he will trust me enough to hire me."

"Be careful Jack," Gwen replied.

"I always am," Jack answered. "I'll talk to you later."

"Goodbye," Gwen stated. Jack hung the phone back up. He wanted justice for Kurt just as much as Gwen did. It was time that Vaughn was held responsible for his actions.

"So talk!" Henry stated sternly. He stared at Rachel angrily. Felicity, who was sitting next to him nudged him with her elbow.

"Don't be so harsh!" Felicity scolded. The entire Town had gathered for a meeting about Rachel. Rachel was a bit nervous with everyone staring at her. Tina stood up in front with her. Out of everyone in town, Tina was the last person that Rachel ever expected to become an ally. But the reporter was turning into someone that she could rely on.

"I don't know where to start," Rachel said. "So I'll start from the beginning. Ever since I've arrived here, I've had flashes of memory. Memories of people performing painful tests, memories of being locked up."

"So you put my family in danger?" Henry shouted.

"Henry!" Felicity scolded. "If she's in danger then she needs our help!" Henry sat down begrudgingly. Felicity's kind heart was always willing to reach out to those in need, even to her own detriment.

"I don't know," Rachel replied. "I wasn't sure if I was imagining things, or if the memories were real. I realized they were real when that man showed up. All I know is that he was one of my captors."

"So what do you expect us to do?" Dr. Klaus asked.

"Nothing," Rachel replied.

"Look everyone," Tina jumped in "I have a hunch of what's going on, it involves Maion corporation." Nobody in the town liked Maion. A few years back it had tried to buy out Echo Town, to turn it into some high-class vacation resort. They had done everything they could to get the villagers out, but nothing had worked. Tina looked at Rachel, assuring her with that look that everything would be okay. Tina then began to explain the suspicions they had about Maion Corporation and Rachel.

After Tina's explanation, there was a murmur around the room. Rachel could see that there were some who believed her, and others who did not. She could see the doubt in Henry's eyes, and the sympathy in Felicity's eyes. She could see Dr. Klaus's scowling, and Dunnhill looking worried. All around the room, she saw different reactions. However there was one face, that she could not bring herself to look at. She did not look at Sanjay. She did not want to see his response. Afraid that his response would be disgusted, or distrust, like some of the other villagers.

"I for one am not willing to stand by, and allow Maion Corporation to do anything to this girl! "Dunhill exclaimed. "I think as a town, we need to do what is right and protect this girl."

"The mayor is right!" Felicity chimed in. "I could not in good conscience turn this girl over to that monster!"

"You're really putting a lot of trust in her," Henry replied. Felicity turn to her husband.

"You're right I am! just as a trusted you when we first met. People in this town do not like newcomers, and yet I welcomed you with open arms, and the rest followed suit." Henry said nothing more. His lovely wife was right. When he first moved into town, people had been rather mistrusting of him as well. The town was not accustomed to newcomers. He sighed, there was very little he'd deny Felicity.

"I'm for helping," Henry sighed. The general consensus seemed to be to help Rachel. Tears formed in Rachel's eyes. She hadn't expected this kindness from the town.

After the meeting, Rachel felt a gentle hand on her shoulder. She turned to look up into the face of Sanjay. She flushed, not wanting to know what he was going to say.

"So Tina thinks you are a human replication?" Sanjay asked.

"Apparently," Rachel replied. She looked away."I'm sorry, I didn't know myself, until recently." Rachel quickly ran away from Sanjay leaving him wondering what he had done to make the girl so upset.
