Nikki looked around the chamber she was in. It wasn't a dream, she had really been rescued. Her son rested peacefully in the crib. Reese had been preparing for her arrival. The crib was a clear sign of it. Nikki walked over to the crib and saw the sleeping child.

"Your name is Ekon, because it means strong or strength and you are the reason why I am strong and also my strength." Nikki explained. "You are my Ekon." Nikki ran her hand through the her blonde hair. Everything going on around her was too much. Nikki glanced over her shoulder when she heard the door open.

"Good morning." Said Cole as he closed the door behind him.

"Hi Cole." Nikki greeted. "What brings you here?"

"Thought I give you and the baby the official tour of heaven." Nikki agreed and pick up her son. She was excited to see what heaven was like. Was it really how they taught her in church? Or was it going to be very different. They walked through the castle until they came to a complete stop.

"First we must have breakfast." Nikki smiled at how thoughtful Cole was. The table was already set with the food. As they ate they had small talk about themselves. Nikki learned that Cole was one of the royal guards for Reese.

"Wow I wish Mary could have been here." Nikki smile faded as she remembered. Mary was dead because of her, she died protecting her.

"Who says I'm not." Came the voice from behind them. Nikki didn't look back, she couldn't, not if this was a game. She had seen Mary get stabbed, all the blood that came out of Mary's body. Nikki felt the presence standing behind her, but still she didn't want to look at the person standing behind her.

"Please don't make me." Nikki pleaded as her voice broke, she couldn't go through that heartbreak again.

"Nikki it's okay." The voice from behind said. Nikki turned slowly wanting to prepare herself for the heartbreak when she opened her eyes. When her eyes opened she saw the one person she had been greiving for. Mary hugged her freind tightly as she sobbed. She couldn't imagine what Nikki had lived through in hell and she still blamed herself for not being able to protect her.

"How?" Came the word barely above a whisper.

"When he took you Reese showed up with soliders and tired to get you back but it was too late, he had gotten you." Mary explained. She couldn't lie to herslef she did think she was going to die that day but her girlfriend had showed up right on time. For the past three months the only thing on her agenda was to get Nikki back and they secceeded. Mary held her for a while comforting her about what she thought had happened.

"I gave birth." Nikki told her best freind.

"I know." Mary said.

"She died." Nikki said not finisheing the sentence but Mary knew what she meant. All of heaven had heard that the choosen one gave birth to twins but the baby girl died. Mary would have been here sooner but Reese hadn't teleported to earth to bring her  back to heaven. Resse no longer lived on earth just once in a while she would go and visit her brother and his girlfriend who believed Mary was in a university that was about a twelve hour drive away. Mary knew that it was better to keep this a secret that way no more lifes would be put in danger. This battle was between them and Liam, this had nothing to do with her brother who was innocent in all of this.

"It's gonna be okay." Mary offered the only words she knew were somehow appropriate for this sistuation. She wiped the tear away from Nikki and placed a kiss on her forehead. Mary sat in the seat next to her. Mary asked to carry the baby and right away Nikki handed her the baby. soon enough Reese joined them.

"Have you choosen a name?" Mary asked.

"Ekon." Nikki answered proudly.

"That's bueatiful. It means strength right?" Cole stated. Nikki gave a small nod. She excitedly ate the food that was on the table. Liam never fed her actual food. He would do some sort of magic that would give her body the nutreints it needed to keep the babies alive. What Nikki never managed to understand was why Liam hated one of the babies so much he would always state how he only cared about his son. When they all finished they began to give Nikki the tour of heaven. Nikki was in awe of the place.

"Is it like we learned in church?" Nikki asked couriously, wanting to know how accurated her church preist was.

"What do you think." Reese stated. "You're taught that heaven doesn't accept gays, that god is a man and that the devil is red man with horns." Nikki took that into concideration, which was true, everything the church had said was wrong so far. "Nikki you're standing in heaven with the Queen that happens to be gay, also you've met the king of hell who you can confirm isn't a red creature, also he himself is bisexual just ask my guard Greg who dated him for ten months."

"Sorry it was stupid of me to ask." Nikki chuckled. Also the news of Liam being bisexual was new. She would have never pictured that but who better to know that his own sister.

"No it wasn't. It's just werid for everyone to understand when they get here." Reese explained. "In heaven when you make it here you become who you really are. You get to be happy, it's like earth but here the pain no longer exists becasue you've already been through your own personal hell on earth. Hell isn't about eternal suffering either, hell is basically choosing to live on a place like earth were pain exists and suffer because you did something that was unforgiveable, yes the rules still apllies you have to earn your place in either kingdom."

Nikki understood, so maybe everything she knew wasn't right but she would learn now. The day went on and Nikki and Mary caught up on what was going on. Mary learned that Reese and Mary were getting married soon and she couldn't be anymore happier for them. She also learnd that Mary's parents where in heaven and that some day Mary would take her to visit them. Maybe after all this mess was over becasue Liam wasn't going to give up on trying to get her back. Cole and Reese had left when they decided it was time to go back to Nikki's room. Mary and Nikki talked about anything they could while Nikki fed Ekon. After he was burped the boy went to sleep amd Nikki placed him in the crib.

"I should get going." Mary said, but Nikki grabbed her hand.

"Please don't leave me." Nikki begged. She wasn't ready to let Mary go, she had just go her back and she needed to have her close for at least this one night then Mary could go back to wherever she slept. Mary agreed not being able to say no to the blue eyes. Mary crawled into the bed and after checking on Ekon one more time Nikki crawled into the bed. She palced her head on Mary's chest and placed her hand around her waist. Mary heartbeat soothed the girl. Mary wrapped her arm around Nikki's waist and with the other played with Nikki's hair.

"I'm right here." Mary assured. "I'm not going anywhere I promise." Mary placed a kiss on Nikki's forehead. The past few months without her had been hell for Mary and she didn't want to go through that again. Mary knew that next time if Nikki was ever taken she would rather be dead because being in a heavean with out Nikki wasn't heaven. Nikki for the first time in months was able to sleep clam and peacefully and so was Mary. Both girls slept peacefully knowing that the other was there. They were both home.
