Karl and Elizabeth danced in their living room, an old yet beautiful song playing on their vinyl, the house had a feeling of Castle Claydon as the majority of the decor of the house was saved before the village got blown up. The portrait of Elizabeth and her family was on the right-hand side of the fireplace, and on the left was one of Karl and his parents, Elizabeth had one of her former servants replicate a small picture Karl had of his family into a painting, safe to say he loved it.

And at the very top above the fireplace, was a portrait of Karl, Elizabeth and Little Silvie, lovingly named after silver due to her father's control over metals. She was a gorgeous little girl, with brown hair just like her mother but also with a few dirty blonde hairs from her father. When she was born a tracker wasn't advised as she was born in the US she was considered a US citizen, but her parents still had them. She was currently playing in the garden with her father's latest creation, a metal dog, Karl's sole use of his gift now was to create gifts for his little girl and to sometimes put the dishes away when Elizabeth insists it's his turn to do the washing up. As for Elizabeth, her powers were only used to help their crops grow, it was no longer her moods that affected the weather, she now had complete control of it in whatever area she was in, the family had their little garden where they grew their food and Silvie loved pestering her mother to make it rain so she could go jump in puddles.

Silvie was around 8 now, she was a very sociable child but nothing could compare to her being with her best friend Rosemary, naturally, the two became joined at the hip from the moment they met each other and Mia and Elizabeth simply adored that fact. Elizabeth wasn't happy that Rosemary had to go for appointments at Blue Umbrella but alas she couldn't stop them, and Mia just wanted Rose to be okay and safe so allowed them to run tests to make sure the mould inside her wasn't killing her or anything like that, no matter how much she despised the corporation. Silvie had just started showing signs of powers, much to Karl's delight she had started to move small metal cutlery around at will, it was a given that she wouldn't be a normal child given what her parents were. Elizabeth only hoped that Silvie showed signs of her powers so Karl would stop being so smug about it.

Chris was named Silvies Godfather and Mia her Godmother and neither failed to visit, Silvie would always get excited when "Uncle Chris" came around to visit, the man had gotten closer and closer to the Heisenberg family ever since that fateful day years ago, it came to the point that Chris had started to come around for a Sunday dinner that Elizabeth always made to perfection, everyone came round on a Sunday to the Heisenberg Manor, unless dire circumstances came up and they couldn't attend, they would all gather around a table and eat, forgetting their stress for that one day and just enjoying a delicious home-cooked meal by Elizabeth, bringing her British essence to American majority of her table
Silvie and Rose would always share a dessert.
Leon and Claire would always fight for the biggest Yorkshire pudding.
Karl and Chris would argue over who gets to cut the meat.
Mia and Elizabeth would just share a glass of wine and laugh as they watched the contents of the table be devoured.

Elizabeth always felt at home in her husband's arms and as he swayed and span her around she couldn't imagine a greater type of joy, their lives were finally normal, well, as normal as they could be and they loved every second of it.

And as the music fades out the final lyrics are heard as Elizabeth kissed her husband, intertwining her hands in his long, now white, hair as she did so.

"Kiss me once
Then kiss me twice
Then kiss me once again
Its been a long, long time."
