"Well well well, look who made it! Balbina!" Joshua exclaimed as Balbina walked into the empty field.

Joshua and Balbina started playfully arguing and teasing each other. Joshua put Balbina in a headlock and Balbina was shouting for Joshua to let go of her.

"Josh, I'm so glad that I had the time for you." Balbina said.

"Do they always do this?" Sam asked Lucas, who was sitting under a tree with Embry, eating strawberries.

Lucas nodded.

"Yup, get used to it. Balbina is like your aunt." Lucas answered.

Sam shook his head.

"If you want to control them, tell them you'll get Gemini on them." Lucas said.

Joshua had phased and was now chasing Balbina who was laughing and making chew toys appear.

"Hey, boy!" Balbina exclaimed.

Joshua growled.

Sam sighed.

"I'll keep that in mind." Sam said.

Lucas got up and started walking towards Joshua and Balbina when Aaliyah appeared out of no way and tackled him. Everyone froze.

"Lucas Uley! How dare you leave Miami and not bring me with you? What type of guardian, are you?!" Aaliyah yelled as she tried to bury Lucas' face in the ground.

Joshua rolled on his back and started laughing.

Balbina shook her head and walked over to the two and pulled Aaliyah off of Lucas.

"Aaliyah, you're being dramatic." Balbina said.

Lucas kicked her in the stomach in the process of phasing.

Embry gasped.

"Oh it on!" Aaliyah said as she used Balbina as a weapon.

Balbina was screaming for Aaliyah to let her go. Joshua ran over and knocked Aaliyah over.

Lucas growled at Aaliyah and she started laughing.

"Bring it on, Luca." Aaliyah said.

Camari walked out and stood next to Sam and Embry.

"Don't worry, they're just playing." Camari said.

They looked at her.

"Who are you?" Sam asked.

"Camari Swan. That's Aaliyah." Camari answered.

"Why are you here?" Embry asked.

"Gemini." Camari answered.

"Wait...did you say your last name is Swan?" Sam asked.

Camari nodded.

"Yes, why?" Camari replied.

"She has to be related to Charlie." Embry said.

"Who the hell is Charlie?" Camari asked.

"I think he may be a relative of yours." Sam answered.

Camari squealed.

"Aaliyah! Did you hear? I may have family here!" Camari yelled.

Aaliyah nodded before being tackled by Joshua.
