Malina became nervous as they walked up the steps to their own home. Celeste held her hand, assuring her it would be okay. But even then it wouldn't stop the painful memories from flowing back. It was a lot to put on one person, but Malina wanted to be strong for Celeste. This could potentially be their new home.

"It's going to be okay. New memories, remember?" Celeste assured the hero as they stayed standing in front of the door, "Movie nights, breakfast in bed.."

"And our daughter's first steps. I know." Malina finished for the witch. She inserted the key and turned it before taking it out and opening the door. Both of them stepped in. The fresh air entering the house. The house was surprisingly..clean?

"I have dusters come by regularly." Malina closed the front door. It closed loudly, making Malina jump.

"I told you I want this house clean and food on the table when I get home!" Ian shouted at Malina, "Is that so much to ask? I know you're a hero, but I have a job too!"

"I said sorry! I had visitors over today, we got so caught up in the moment I forgot to cook!" Malina yelled back. Ian slapped the hero across the face, making a loud smacking sound.

"You okay? Do you need a minute?" Celeste asked.

"I'm fine. I'll show you around." Malina shook her head and toured Celeste around the house. The kitchen was beautiful and had lots of space. Perfect for family cooking. The living room had a large L-sectional sofa with a big tv-screen. The bedrooms were just perfect and the bathrooms were a perfect ratio to them. It was Celeste's dream home. If only Malina didn't have such bad memories in it.

"We can get a cook and a couple maids to keep the house tidy. The pool in the back is just perfect for barbecues by the way." Malina wanted Celeste to like the mansion.

"It all sounds perfect. I just want to make sure you are comfortable with us living here." Celeste smiled, pulling the hero around to face her. She placed her arms around their waist.

"As long as you're comfortable, I'm comfortable." Malina assured, "Besides, new memories! Ian's gone, he can't hurt me anymore."

"Good. I'm glad." Celeste kissed the hero.

"Mm.." Malina passionately kissed the witch back, "As long as I'm with you I'll be just fine." The hero held the witch by their hair, massaging it as she kissed Celeste. Nothing could ruin the moment. Ian was gone. The war was over, which meant no more stress. Marvel and Forrest were gone. As long as Celeste had held onto Malina, they were going to be okay.

"You know.." Celeste took a breath, "I'm sure my sister could watch my brothers for a little longer."

"Mmm-mm. We have plenty of time for that later, we need to get back." Malina proceeded to kiss the witch more.

"Fine." Celeste gave in and they left the mansion. They arrived back to the destroyed field just in time for people to start questioning where they had disappeared off to. It looked like everyone who was injured were all taken care of and bandaged.

"Celeste!" Ellis walked up to his baby sister, "I wanted to talk about the triplets."

"Yeah, of course." Celeste sat down on the destroyed grass and her brother followed.

"You know with Sarah being pregnant and all, we can't handle three kids running around." Ellis hesitantly said, "And Selena said she didn't want to be stuck babysitting the rest of her miserable life. So I was wondering if you and Malina could take them in? You know, seeing as if lesbians can't have children."
