Revenge of the wolf

Chapter 33 – We are family

No One's POV

It was a warm breezy Saturday afternoon and at the West/Vega mansion, the final preparations were being made for a party.

It had been 6 months since they had returned from the dead and in those months Tori and Jade tried to readjust to being in the land of the living. But of course, an explanation was needed to explain their return.

The children were, told an exciting story of fighting an evil witch and how at first Jade was hurt and how she needed to hide until she was strong enough to defeat the witch. Naturally Jade and Tori told their parents and family the entire story. They were saddened by the ordeal they had to face, but glad they came out ok.

The public of course, was told a different story entirely. When their deaths were first reported, they were told that Tori and her girlfriend Jade had died in a building collapse while doing some urban exploration. To explain their return, Jade worked with the werewolves in the US government to come up with a story. It was that they had been actually kidnapped and held for ransom by an obscure terrorist group and eventually rescued. But due to the sensitive nature of the negotiations with the group and the rescue operation, the reports of their deaths were only a cover story.

Tori's fans who had sent her album to the top of the charts, were more than overjoyed to have her back. She told her fans she was glad to be back and hoped to make more music very soon.

It was a struggle at first adjusting back to life, as while they had returned home, their nightmares and traumas, returned home with them. Jade and Tori both sought out counseling with a therapist who happened to be a werewolf.

Other than the therapy, Jade and Tori made a number of other efforts to both reconnect and repair the damage, both internally and between them.

Tori went to work on her music, starting to record a new album in the basement studio Jade had built for her.

Jade worked on her writing, kept running and spent a lot of time with both Tori and their children. She also spent some time, working on a few other projects.

Things were getting back to normal, but with the terrible memories and the continuing nightmares, Jade would often wonder if back to normal was even possible.

But today was a day to celebrate, the 6-month anniversary of them coming back. But the party, which was Tori's idea, was less to celebrate them coming back and more to officially thank all of those who helped them along the way.

Coming down to the party room, Tori looked about to see that all was in place. Tables of food were in place, the bar was fully stocked and music from the Disco ball, they had used in the fight was playing. They had turned off the holographic dancers for the moment, and just had it play music and lights.

Out on the patio, she could see, Jade, her parents, Jade's parents and her 3 girls all talking. The ring of the doorbell told her the first guests had arrived.

Hurrying to the door, Tori opened it to find, Beck and his 5 months pregnant wife, Claire, at the door. A week after Beck came back to her, they eloped to Las Vegas and less than 3 weeks later was pregnant with their first child. Behind them was Cat, Robbie, Rex and Andre.

"The gang's all here." Announced Beck.

Smiling ear to ear, Tori stepped aside. "Come in please, we've got food, music and best of all its free, for you guys at least."
