"Are you sure that you want to go back?" Kylie asked Anna.
"Yes," Anna answered looking at Kylie.
"Please leave us alone for a few minutes," Kylie said to everyone in the room. They all nodded and walked out.
Kylie placed a necklace around her small bruised neck. "If you need help, simply hold onto this, the moon pendant will bring me right to you. Almost like a tracker. As long as you wear it, I will be able to find you."
Anna jumped up and clutched onto Kylie, "Thank you. Just, Thank You."
"Anna, Don't take it off," Kylie said using a very stern serious tone. "Do you understand?"
"You think he's coming back," Anna said tensing up. A pure look of horror covered her face.
Kylie locked eyes with her for a few minutes. "I do." she finally answered.
"He-He hurt me," Anna said shaking.
"I know," Kylie said rubbing her skin, calming her down. As she touched her, her skin glowed and the scars that were on her skin slowly disappeared.
"How?" Anna said looking at her wide-eyed.
"I just needed to rest," she said with a faint smile. Kylie tried to keep a smile on her face, as she removed her scars, she felt every bit of pain inflicted, multiplied, and be absorbed into her soul. "You should have told me about your fears," Kylie said as she held her abdomen and healed the scars there. "Oh," Kylie said removing her hands. She studied Anna for a moment.
"I didn't know how to talk about it. Victor always wanted a pup, he has always talked about being a dad."
"Anna, you remember that you and Vincent were always a little closer, don't you?" Kylie asked.
"I keep thinking that, but all my memories are flooded with Victor. I keep seeing images flash before my eyes with Vincent, I can't look at him after I see them."
"Anna, what do you see?" Kylie asked.
"I see, them. I think I see Rosie's memories of everything they did together. Her telling him that I don't matter. Then I see her on top of Victor. Only, Victor pushes her away and tells her that he won't do that to me, that she needs to stop." she said as she wipes a tear from her eye.
"The man that took you, he influenced what happened. Keep your heart open. I'm afraid a few more surprises are in store." Kylie said kissing her on the cheek. She then placed a healing potion into her hand. "This will help when you are afraid or need to calm down."
"Thank you, I will think about everything you said, and for this," she said looking at the potion in her hand.
Victor knocked on the door, "Are you ready?"
"She is," Kylie answered with a sweet smile. "Let me send the two of you back."
Victor looked at her confused.
"I will give the two of you a two-hour window alone, but Griffin will stay to make sure that you are both ok."
"Thanks sis," Victor said grinning at her.
Kylie returned them to the house, "It's beautiful." she said smiling at Victor. "You both did an excellent job." Then she was gone.
"She likes to do that doesn't she?" Anna asked Victor.
"Yeah, but she tries to be around for everyone when they need her. She went crazy trying to find you."
As Kylie returned, she started to cough up the poison that had entered her system. Jason held her hair back as she released the negative energy that had been absorbed into her being.
"That isn't healthy," he said concerned.
"I couldn't leave her like that," Kylie mumbled out as she lost consciousness.
"No one realizes how much this takes out of you," Jason said carrying her back to the Dome. He placed her down in the direct path of the light. It encompassed her body, healing her. Her body levitated in the center of the room and remained in this position for the next hour.
Victor took Anna around and showed her the house. She smiled at him, "This is beautiful." she remarked.
"You really are," he said watching her face glow.
Anna blushed, as she looked away.
"Come on," he said extending his hand to her.
They walked outside, going by the lake, and brought her to a swing he hand made. He motioned for her to sit down as he began to lightly push her. She smiled looking around.
"I want you to know that you can talk to me about anything," he said, still pushing her. "I will be here whenever you want to talk about what happened," he said as she looked back at him.
"I don't want to talk about it right now," she said and he nodded.
"I know, but you will. I am here whenever you want to. For now, how about we enjoy this view."
Anna smiled as he picked her up, pulled her dress off, threw his shirt, and jumped into the water with her. She screamed as the cold water hit her skin.
"You" she screamed as he laughed.
"You love me," he said laughing harder. "The look on your face."
Anna grabbed the back of his head and dunked him. Then they played in the water, just like when they were young.
