You Cannot escape the past


Disclaimer: I don't own the two characters in this fanfic, this is just a fanfic to get me warmed up in writing and to give me something to do before I go to my acting class. Thoughts are loved.

Summary: Its been years since the Cahore-Deveraux Coven war but Karie still holds the memories in her head. With all of her thoughts intertwined together, she prays to the sky to take away her dreams. But what happens is the opposite.

I lay in bed, shivering, I was chilled to the bone the Seattle weather was not helping my already screwed up immune system. I was back in the sight of my old apartment. It had been destroyed at the flood of course years, and years ago, shortly before I was killed. I sighed as I wrapped the blanket all around myself not thinking I could deal with another night of thoughts and dreams. I looked up at the night sky that hid the near full moon.

"I know this is stupid...but if it's possible I don't want any dreams" I closed my eyes and turned over onto my side sure of myself that no one would hear me and that it was just a wistful thinking. Yawning slightly I let myself go and in minutes I was asleep.

In my sleep I was standing in front of a door, it was morning, it was sunny I realized where it was in about a second and a half. The island of Avalon. Jer had been trapped there as Eli's prisoner once, so had been Nicole, a prisoner of both the Deveraux and the Moore clan which were to the best of knowledge now both dead.

The door burst open at that very moment and I called fire to me. I had gotten to be a skilled witch enough since my coming back. The ball of fire burned in my hand as I tried to hurl it until I saw who it was, I was VERY glad that it hadn't left my hand already.

"S-Sasha?" there stood Jer and Eli's mother and an ex-Deveraux herself. Sasha had been with the Cathers coven at its last days, helping them to try and save Jer, Eli and everyone involved. She smiled at me and she gave me a look of surprise as she saw the fire in my hand. Seh didn't need to say anything I flung the fire backwards setting it on the tree behind us.

I was so much in shock I wanted to scream. How was she here, this was Avalon, had Sasha known the location, wasn't she supposed to be dead.

"My dear Karie, you've grown so much since I saw you last"

the softness in her voice made me want to burst into tears. I had never had much of a parental anything since I was in my teens, Sasha had acted as a second mother and caregiver to me too. Feelings flooded out before I could stop myself. I tried to run to her but was afraid I'd not be able to get near her.

"S-Sasha...what are you doing here? where are we? how did you get here?"

Sasha reached her hand out to steady me as I was about to fall unfortunately, I fell anyway and she caught me in her arms. She was solid, I could feel her and she sat me down on the steps that I had no idea had existed before now.

"I have come to talk with you....about the past, the present, and the future"

I groaned. Not that I had expected anything else from her she was always worried about me, worried about all of us. "Sasha, the past is in the past thank you very..." I stopped when I saw the expression on her face. She looked...upset. I decided to hear her out. Sitting there on the step, I took several deep breaths. "What is going on....?" I asked of her.

The redhaired woman sat down next to me and put her hand on my shoulder, it almost felt....comforting. I didn't push her away but just closed my eyes letting the feeling sink in.

"I have bad news I'm afraid....Sir William Moore...is back"

I jumped or tried to but she tightened her grip on me, not hurting me but stopping me. "WHAT?" i screamed. I still remembered what the hell had happened back then, the brutal battles. "I won't fight him...Sasha it's over you're all dead!" I screamed.

Sasha put a hand over my mouth to shut me up. She looked sympathetic. "he thinks we are all dead...but he also knows that there are two no, three members of the Tri-Covanent alive...you, Jer and Holly"

I couldn't help it but lost my temper. "HOLLY AND JER ARE ON THEIR TEMPLE OF THE FREAKIN BLIND JUSTICES!!!" She gave me a look and pleaded with me to calm down with her eyes, for her sake I complied. She shook her head again.

"Karie dear, you cannot escape the past" she mumbled. "I know you never wanted to be involved with this, any of it...you didn't ask to be killed twice but that was the risk you took when you started dating my son, and since William thinks that you can get him to the temple of the blind justices, you are in danger and so are your friends"
