 In Elara dream

Nobody's POV:

Elara woke up floating on the water, the sunlight stirring her

"Looks like your up." She heard from beside her getting up she turned to see Nyssa sitting on the rocks while Celeste could be sitting on the shoreline. She looked up putting the down her tapestry as she stood up, hands clutched together in front of her as she gave a soft smile, waiting paitently for them

"She wants to talk to you... we've been waiting awhile." Nyssa smiled as she made her way to Celeste taking her hand and waiting for Elara to come with her

Celeste and Nyssa smiled and Elara smiled, tears falling from her eyes as she looked at her two sisters and racing towards them with a smile, hugging them both

"I've missed you, both of you so much." She cried

"We know." Nyssa replied

"We've missed you too." Celeste smiled

After a few moments, Nyssa gave a sad smile as she brushed Elara hair back "You can't stay, you know that."

"No, I don't wanna go back." Elara replied as she buried her head in Nyssa shoulder

"But you have to." Celeste replied gently "If you don't who would lead?"

"Maybe Clay."

"Even if he could, you can't let him." Nyssa replied "That is your home and your family is waiting on you."

"But what about you?" She replied "Your my family, how could I leave you..."

"I'm not alone, I've got Nyssa, Euphemia, Magnus, Soraya as well as other members and then there we're the ones that the Cis, we've got Taranee and Sky...."

"Your not alone."

"Oh no, not by a long shot my darling." Celeste smiled "But your kids, your man and our family, there waiting on the other side for you."

Elara hugged them tightly

"Lucky we've got sometime before you go back." Celeste replied "Come on, for now lets just be sisters again."

Celeste smiled walking into the water and standing in the middle with her hands open and inviting to both woman on the shore "Let's go for an adventure."

Nyssa smiled taking Elara hand and helping lead her into the water

"Ready?" Celeste asked

Elara smiled and nodded as Nyssa let go her hand diving under the water, but she didn't resurface

"Come on, our turn." Celeste reassured holding her hand as they both took the dive but instead of the getting soaked as she expected she opened her eyes to find the sunlight back in her face

"Yea it's a lot to get use to." Nyssa smirked "Do you remember this place?"

"Keukenhof in Lisse." Elara smiled "We're in the Netherlands."

"Still just as beautiful." Celeste replied "Come on let's take a walk."

All three of them walked through sharing stories and smiles, Elara happy again to have her sister but her sisters knowing that the end was approaching decided on one last change

"Come on, we've got one more place to go." Nyssa smiled "Close your eyes."

Trusting in her sisters, Elara allowed herself to relax closing her eyes again and waited for the sun to irradiated her into opening them again

"Not this time." Nyssa promised "Open your eyes."

Opening her eyes she saw that it was night time with the stars and the moon high in the sky over her clouded partly from view but the Cherry blossom trees flowering above her, she was quick to look at down finding her self on a bridge

"Nakameguro." She smiled looking back at Nyssa and Celeste "Tokyo, Japan."

"Well done." Nyssa smiled

"You remembered." Celeste replied linking her arm in Elara as Nyssa linked hers, leaving Elara in the middle as they walked observating the beauty around them before Nyssa took the lead and lean them to the railing

"No more trip, my head hurts from the wake ups." Elara replied "Plus I wanna just enjoy the moment."

"One more trip." Celeste smiled as she turned to face Elara "But this one, my darling you take alone."

"Time to go back now." Nyssa smiled gently brushing back her hair "Be smart and fierce and never ever...."

"Give in." Elara replied "I remember."

"Good girl."

"Celeste...."

"Just be brave and when you come home...." Celeste smiled gently cupping Elara cheek "Have stories good..."

"Great." Nyssa smiled and Celeste nodded

"Great..." Celeste laughed "Great stories with unbelievable adventures, then you come home and you tell us."

 Jason POV:

Elara had been asleep for a 2 days, Clay hadn't been able to leave her side

"Clay..." She groaned as she woke up

"I'm right here baby. Right here." Clay assured "Welcome back."

She looked over to him with a small smile gently bring her hand up she cupped his cheek and he turned kissing her palm before reaching over to the water

"Slowly."

After she was finish he helped her sit up

"What happened?"

"What do you remember last?" Clay asked

"Backing up Regina, then the building went up in flames." She replied "Why am I in the hospital?"

"You got shot baby, we we're getting the people on to the transport trucks when we heard two gun shots."

"Wait? Two... I was shot twice."

"No, you caught one and the other hit Imogen just as we turned to load."

"How is she?"

"She woke up yesterday..." Clay smiled gently brushing her hair back "We we're just waiting on you..."

"Worth the wait?" Elara asked

"Definitely." Clay smiled leaning up to kiss her

"Hey sweetie..."

"Hey dad." Elara smiled

"What was that?"

"I can go back to Jason." She warned warmly

"Dad's fine." I smiled "How you feeling?"

"Tired, a little sore." She replied "Other then that, I'm okay."
