When Our Paths Collide

Almost perfect...

I got out of bed and ran downstairs to my dad's office, he was deep in his research when I came in.

"Dad." I said as I caught my breath.

"Sweetheart, what's going on?" He said as he got up.

"Can our kind go in a trance and go to other realms using some kind of..." I looked at him, "spell, ritual, or something?"

"There is a way but it's very dangerous. Why do you ask?" he said as he sat back down and continued reading an old book.

"I need to talk to someone from the other side." I said firmly.

"Honey, you're pregnant, I will not let you go under to do what you want. I will not risk you being in a coma and having my grandchild possibly die in the process." he looked up looking really concerned.

"Sebastian has info." I said as I sat down on the chair in front of his desk.

"What do you mean? Sebastian is dead." Dad chuckled.

"I somehow ended up in his realm, and not long ago, upstairs... he told me something along the lines of 'they found you,' I don't know what he meant by that." I grabbed a book and opened it.

"You... you traveled to the other realm?!" He almost shouted.

"I... I don't know how it happens but whenever I shut down I somehow end up there." I said, "I've been with mom, talked to her and all. And Sebastian, he clearly knows something. Let me show you." I reached for his hand and as soon as he took it, I watched his eyes turn white. There were tears in his eyes once he blinked the visions away.

"Sweetheart..." he whispered. He got up and walked over to me and hugged me. When he pulled away he said, "I can't let you go back there. Your mom was clearly looking out for you and put you in some kind of safety bubble."

"Dad, Sebastian died to protect me, to protect my baby. I..." I started crying, "I... I don't know what to do. I'm scared." he then hugged me again and whispered something I can't understand.

"Dad..." I said as I looked up.

"Yes?" He asked.

"Do you think that it was really an illusion? I mean... I saw him doing the no-no with that girl. It..." I sighed and he held my face and smiled.

"I am 100% sure that it was an illusion that was put to show you to get you away from Christopher. I'm not saying your feelings are invalid, what I want you to understand is that he loves you so much to even think of looking at other girls." he smiled and walked back to his chair.

"I feel so stupid now." I said as I covered my face with my hand.

"It's okay to feel that way. Just talk to him." He smiled from behind the book he started to read. I got up and walked towards the door, "Sage..." dad said.

"Yes, dad?" I turned around and smiled.

"You still can't be alone with him until I'm 100% sure that the spell casted upon him is gone. Do you understand?" he smiled back and I nodded. I turned around and walked out the office door, shutting it behind me.

I walked up the stairs but in the middle of it I felt pain in my tummy area and I screamed. I sat on the steps as I felt something going down my legs. I looked down and saw blood. "CHRISTOPHER!" I yelled as I started to panic. "MOM!" I shouted.

"Sweetheart, what's going..." Chris said as he ran down the stairs to me and stopped when he saw blood. "Hey... look at me. It's going to be okay." he smiled faintly. "SCOTT! GET THE CAR READY!" Chris yelled and Scott ran down the stairs past us and ran to the garage. "Baby, can you walk?" Chris asked and I shook my head no. He carried me down the stairs and rushed me to the garage and into the car.
