Checking up on things anda few surprises....

Draco chuckled and took few cookies

Darcy and Edward dug in and enjoyed the picnic.

Vanessa was perfectly at peace

The group were completely off guard as they discussed the holidays.

Something could be heard rustling in the trees,which woke Vanessa up,she stood up and stepped forward a bit "wh-who's there?" after a brief moment of silence she stepped forward and turned to face stripes before she was grabbed by a shaded figure and a hankercheif soaked in strange liquid held over her nose and mouth "uh.....this sickly sweet smell.." Vanessa thought to herself with heavy eyes.A woman who looked completely identical to her stepped in front of stripes and gave her a devivlish smirk and put her index finger over her lips before returning to Vanessa's original position "is that ME!?" she closed her eyes unconsious "....what's going on?" she thought before going completely blank.the shaded figure carried her off without a sound

"Mum, do you want some of this food?" Tala asked walking over to her with a sandwhich and some cookies. She suddenly felt a chill down her spine but shook it off and sat next to her.

"Vanessa" woke up and rubbed her eyes a bit. she looked to Tala with a warm smile "alright then sweetie!" she said taking a cookie and taking a bite out of it.she swaloowed "this is really good!" she told Tala with a bright smile

Tala gave a grin as Stripes raised his head sniffing Vanessa giving a growl. "Huh? What do you mean that's not my mum? Stripes." Tala groaned as Stripes growled at Vanessa again.

Vanessa giggled a bit and stood up "it's fine hun!"

Tala put Stripes in his pokeball and gave a giggle sitting next to Draco, unease clear in her expression.

Vanessa gave Draco a wink,Draco knew what this meant and looked down,shaking almost unoticeable.

Darcy and Edward gave Tala a nod and turned to each other. "What's wrong?" Narri whispered. "Stripes never lies! And I have this chill down my spine." Tala whispered back. "Hey sis do you remember years ago when we buried that time capsule?" Darcy began.

Vanessa nodded with a bright smile "who could forget!"

"It was a great day! What was it we buried in it again?" Darcy asked pretending to forget. "I put in my favourite book, or at leaste the one at the time!" Edward chuckled.

Vanessa giggled a bit,Draco didn't move a muscle

"Vanessa what was it YOU put in again?" Edward asked.

Vanessa thought for a moment "wasn't it my necklace? you know,the one with E,D,J and V on it?"

Darcy gave a smile "Oh yeah!" he said as he and Edward nodded at each other.

Vanessa gave them a bright smile

With the Real Vanessa: Vanessa knew she was awake,but she wasn't seeing anything,she couldn't feel anything or move either,she tried to speak but no words were coming out "what on earth is this?.....i...i can't move a muscle..." she heard a voice "you're in a sensory deprivation chamber...now that you've woken up you should be able to see and talk soon..." "oh...so i'm completely alone then?" it was then she could see a bright light come through what seemed like a lid

Tala gave a sight, she felt Draco was hiding something so moved away and sat Next to Darcy. "So Uncle Darcy, is Kerry doing goos in her studies?" Tala asked trying to shake away the unease. "Very well she's starting a new project now!" Darcy grinned.

Vanessa sat next to Edward with a smile

withe the Real Vanessa: Vanessa achingly turned her head slightly to the right to see the almost gentle face of who she knew was her husband "A....Aaron?" he gave her a smile "it's been far too long i would say..." Vanessa looked around to find herself floating in water,he leaned against the base of the coffin-like chamber

Edward gave and awkward smile. "Uh, Uncle Darcy can I go for a run?" Tala asked Darcy shook his head giving a grin.

Vanessa gave him a warm smile "what's wrong?"

"Nothing sis, I was thinking of......What kind of new sword to get Narri and what kind of wand to get Nat for their Christmas!" He said with an awkward chuckle.

Vanessa chuckled a bit

with the real Vanessa: Vanessa turned to Aaron "where's Tala?" "don't worry...she's safe..." she chuckled a bit "although in future....you're probably gonna have to live with not knowing.." Aaron chuckled a bit "that's my Nessa...tough 'til the end..." "why am i here?" "well...cyto started this but...since your here...i have to tell you...." Vanessa turned to him "they want rid of the kids part of project LLX...they think they're of no use anymore..." "who?" "the other commanders..." "LLX? you mean the thing that morphs kids with pokemon?" someone came in and grabbed Aaron's arm "owner! you're needed somewhere else..." Aaron closed the lid and walked away,Vanessa was losing hope,the only thing she wanted now was her brothers...
