Hey guys. This is it. This is the end of everything. ;^; This story has been one of my favourites that I have ever written. Thank you for all your support and taking the time to read it. I hope you enjoy the final chapter.
Epilogue: Coming Home
The morning came but the room was kept dark. Izaya's head rested on top of Shizuo's chest, listening to the steady beating of his heart. A small smile was placed on his face and the whole left side of his body was warm from where he had slept on Shizuo all night. He had enjoyed last night immensely but what made it even better was the way that the blonde had picked him up afterwards, dried him and put him to bed. He couldn't help but grow even more attached to the blonde.
The alarm went off in the quiet apartment. Shizuo groaned and fumbled for the alarm on the side table. He ended up swatting half way across the room, smashing it to pieces. Izaya gave out a little chuckle in response.
"Shizu-chan is such a monster."
"Tch, you can talk flea." Shizuo said with a smile on his face, he lifted Izaya's chin and gave him a sweet kiss on his lips. When he pulled away Izaya pouted.
Izaya's arms wrapped around the blonde's chest, holding him in place. "You don't have to go to work today." Izaya whined.
"Yes I do. I'll be back at sundown. With a surprise, so make sure you're dressed."
Izaya perked up at that. He sat up in bed and watched as Shizuo get out of bed, totally naked. Izaya licked his lips, seeing the marks that he had made on the blondes perfect body almost made him shudder. "What kind of surprise?" Izaya asked as he crawled to the edge of the bed.
Shizuo pulled on his boxers and trousers. He looked back at Izaya with a raised eyebrow. "It's a surprise, flea."
Izaya pouted again and wrapped himself in the covers, talking in Shizuo scent. When he looked back at Shizuo the blonde was already dressed. Shizuo walked back and gave Izaya a kiss on the forehead. Izaya closed his eyes.
"I'll see you tonight."
"But you haven't had breakfast yet." Izaya called to Shizuo as he started to walk out.
"I'll catch something on the way." Shizuo said as he waved back at Izaya and walked out his apartment.
Izaya rolled over onto his back and sighed. Another day waiting for Shizuo to come home.
Izaya walked around the apartment with his phone in is hand, he was smirking to himself as he tapped away. He had missed the forums and his little humans. Though now he knew first hand that a fair few of those humans were disgusting that deserved to be under him on the food chain. Izaya stopped his tapping and frowned. He hadn't thought about his humans like that before, that was….worrying.
Izaya put it to the back of his mind and continued to gather information. He couldn't rely on Shizuo petty wage forever.
There was a pattern that Izaya was finding as he searched around. Quite a few teens had been disappearing around the area. Izaya wouldn't normally think twice about it but with the information he had gathered in the future…something just didn't add up.
Izaya walked over to the window and moved the curtain aside slightly. Light flooded in, Izaya jumped back with a huff. It was too bright for Izaya to even look out the window let alone go outside. Nothing he could do until the sun went down. How boring.
Izaya spent the rest of the day starting rumours and winding up teenagers on the forums. The sun started to go down without Izaya even noticing. He blinked in surprise as he got up quickly and ran to his bedroom, getting dressed and brushing his hair.
Izaya wouldn't say that he was eager for his surprise…but he wanted his surprise. He waited on the sofa, his head turned in the direction of the door. Five minutes past, then ten, then twenty and Izaya was starting to get worried. He got up from his seat, grabbed his coat and opened the door…to a very surprised looking Shizuo.
"Izaya? Where are you going?" The blonde asked, his eyes conveying confusion and concern.
Izaya crossed his arms. "You're late." He glared at the blonde.
Shizuo laughed nervously. "I'm not that late."
"I thought something might have happened. I didn't like it." A soft smile spread across Shizuo's face. He grabbed the little ravenette's hand and started to drag him down the steps. "Where are we going, Shizu-chan?"
"You're surprise. It's probably been driving you crazy all day right? Know-it-all-kun."
Izaya huffed in mock annoyance and followed the blonde, his fingers entwining with Shizuo's warm ones. The night was cold and damp, kind of miserable but it couldn't dampen Izaya's spirit as he gazed up at Shizuo. When had he become so infatuated with the blonde?
He supposed it was from day 1 when Shizuo had looked at him with such disdain and said that he 'pissed him off'. He must really thank Shinra for introducing them; maybe give him Celty's head as a gift…maybe.
They had spent their high school life running around throwing insults at each other, fighting and doing everything in their power to make the other react. Izaya had wanted to see how far he could push Shizuo but Shizuo kept on pulling back. Their tug-of-war battle had gone straight into their lives as adults, still being very childish in their actions. Their hate for each other seemed to get hotter and hotter as the days past and before either of them knew it, that hate had crossed the line into love.
It took Izaya traveling through time and meeting Shizuo's ten year older version to realise it. It took Shizuo years of being without the ravenette's company to discover his love. Then all these outside forces started to intervene and Izaya was sure that he would never be able to be with the blonde without heartache.
He was right of course. Orihara Izaya is always right. He was torn away from his Shizuo and flung back into the past where everything just went so very wrong.
He hadn't told Shizuo but he was so close to ripping his way out of that prison and destroying the world. He would have done it. He would have caused so much bloodshed that even the world in the future he went to would have looked fluffy compared to his masterpiece.
Izaya looked down at their entwined hands.
But Shizuo had saved him. He had been the light in the darkness, so bright that he thought he would be burned. Without Shizuo he would be nothing but a monster.
Shizuo's hand tightened around Izaya's.
"What are you thinking about?" Shizuo asked him.
Izaya looked at the bight moon ahead of them. "I was thinking of what sort of punishment to give Shizu-chan the next time he's late home."
"Hmm? Punishment?" Shizuo replied with a smirk.
Izaya whacked him lightly in the stomach. " Where are you taking me anyway?" Izaya asked again.
Shizuo laughed as he rubbed the spot that Izaya had hit him. "You'll see. It's just around this corner."
Izaya looked around, his enhanced scenes taking in everything. He knew Ikebukuro like the back of his hand but this place seemed eerily familiar. Shizuo led him down the street and around the corner; a huge grin was on his face.
Izaya's eyes widened.
"I've just finished renovating it. Izaya-" Shizuo pointed at the building across the steet. "- This is out new home."
In front of Izaya was a large apartment building. It was old and intricately designed. Huge wooden double doors were open a small queue stood outside. Izaya could hear faint music coming from within.
Of course this road was familiar. Izaya felt tears form in the corner of his eyes. "This is a bar."
"Ah yeah…well…I thought that as you can't go out in the day and we don't get to spend much time together, a bar was a perfect idea. I'll work at night and spend the day with you." Shizuo looked down to Izaya, seeing the tears in his eyes. "Hey, what's the matter? Don't you like it?" Shizuo asked softly.
Izaya shook his head. "No, I love it." Izaya launched himself at Shizuo, hugging the blonde tightly and hiding his face. "It's perfect."
"Sadly it's not just ours. That annoying Doctor and the otaku girl went in on it with me." Shizuo explained. "The whole first floor is ours and the bar too."
Izaya smiled and laughed. "It's perfect." He repeated and pulled away from Shizuo to look into his eyes.
Izaya leaned up and kissed Shizuo full on the lips, putting all his emotions into that one kiss. "I love you."
"I love you too, you damn flea."
Fluffy ending. I thought you all deserved that after what I've put you though :) I have a new story up called Silent bodyguard that I'd love for you all to read.
Please review.
Good bye my precious humans.

text: Mystery Method Exposed Mystery Method is a scam. I'm sorry to be the one to tell you this, but it is. Now, don't get me wrong, it can work for some people but if you're not the 10% of people who are perfectly suited for it, then it's going to fail. Let me tell you why. Mystery Method is based on linear structure of seduction that emphasises changing what you say and do to appear more attractive to women. Sounds good in theory, right? I mean, if what you're saying and doing isn't attracting women now, you should just change it. Right? Well, I'm about to tell you why that's not going to work helped you have amazing success with incredible women. You see, I started my journey into the seduction community with Mystery Method. I learnt some lines, got myself all psyched up, went out to a bar, and I tried them on some unsuspecting women. You know what happened? It worked! And not just a little bit. It worked VERY well. I had a great night and met some amazing women. On this new found high, I decided that I would go out the next night as well. I'd had a big night the night before and wasn't feeling great, but my new found weaponry of Mystery Method techniques would make up for that. I walked into a bar, found a cute girl, and dropped the exact same line that was blowing sets open the night before. You know what happened? Failure. And not just once that night, the entire night. I couldn't work it out. It worked perfectly the night before and tonight it failed. This repeated over and over again until I was able to see a pattern. When I felt good, strong, and open, the lines were great. When I felt down, closed off, and negative, they failed. I decided to do a little experiment. I waited for a night when I felt great, the kind of night where the Mystery Method techniques would work perfectly, and went out. The only different was that tonight, I wasn't going to use any techniques. I wasn't going to use any of Mystery Methods prescribed lines, routines, or techniques. I was just going to say what was on my mind. Have a guess what happened… That's right, it was a great night. Not only did the women respond positively, but I had a great time. I got to do what I wanted, when I wanted, and get great responses. The reason that Mystery Method is a scam is that it doesn't matter what you say to women, it's all about how you feel whilst you're saying it. If you feel negative, closed off and needy when you're talking to a woman, then she's going to feel it and not want to talk to you regardless of what you're talking about. If you feel happy, powerful, and open when you're talking to a woman, then she's going to feel it and want to talk to you, regardless of what you're talking about. And this doesn't just go for Mystery Method. It goes for all of the seduction community techniques, methods, and structures. They're all just empty tricks that might work for a short while but don't actually solve the real issue. If you want to find the real issue that's preventing you from having amazing relationships with incredible women, then you need to read Seduction Community Sucks. You can have it delivered to your inbox for free from the right hand side of this page. LoGun

Chapter 10- Realisation (Edwards P.O.V)
10- Realisation
We were still at the doorstep, Carlisle walked through first and we all switched onto human mode. Our paces slowed as we stepped into the living room.
Bella was right; this was painful, even for me. Charlie was ill, his face was white and crumpled along with his body that clung onto the sofa, and his eyes were red. His breathing wasn't clear, his heart beating faster than it should. He then coughed and sighed after, it must be extremely painful. I then focused on his mind as he saw us in the doorway.
Oh, thank goodness, its Bella. I have missed her. And, oh Carlisle is here. There is little chance he can sort me out, I am going to die. I am going to die. Look at Bella, she is a mess. Worrying about me I suppose. The other day she was so happy, and now I put three thousand tons of weights on her shoulders and she goes crashing down. I am a stupid man, I am ruining her... I would do anything to make her happy, to see her smile right now. But I am going to die, and I am going to hurt her so much. But I will talk to her, before I die and tell her that I am sorry, that I will always love her...
I felt so sad. Listening to this almost made me cry-if I could cry that was- Charlie planning his death speech. Why did this event have to occur? It was traumatic.
"Hello, Charlie." Carlisle said with judiciousness.
"Hi everyone" Charlie croaked. I could hear sue in the kitchen, she was crying now. She was cooking soup for Charlie. The poor woman, all the men around her were dying at her feet. She will finally be alone. But at least she had Seth and Leah and she could always go and see Billy. What was I thinking? There was still hope...
"I've come to see if I can help" Carlisle said. Bella and I sat on the other sofa as Carlisle walked towards Charlie and got on his knees, opening his bag and putting it on the table.
"Ok" He croaked in a different tone to his usual, the old voice had expired.
I looked at Bella, her face was the same as before but her bottom lip was wobbling, she bit it.
"Relax, it's ok" I murmured, only Bella would be able to hear that. She tilted her head so that she could see me and slightly nodded, returning her focus to Carlisle and her father. Watching her I could see the intensity in her eyes, she was clinging onto the seat with anticipation as Carlisle figured out what was wrong.
We sat there for a while, watching Carlisle do his magic- watching his fingers work with ease and perfection. He then lifted them and faced us.
"He has phenomena. It is quite severe. But there is hope, if we act on it now." Carlisle's face was serious but calming. Bella's face softened at first, knowing what was wrong but then hardened a second later.
"What do we do?" She whimpered in a hurt voice
"I don't want surgery" Charlie said, his voice cracking halfway through.
"Bella. I'm old anyway." She flinched at the words.
"I don't want you to go" She whispered, the pain injecting her again, her voice almost whimpering.
"Bella. I don't want you to have to look after an old man. You have a happy life now."
"You are part of it" her tone was pleading.
"Bella. I want to die now. Look at me, what are the odds?"
"The odds..." Carlisle muttered
"Dad... what about Sue?" She was trying, but not succeeding.
"She will be fine. She can live on with her life. Bella, I do love you. And if I was younger then I would have something done... but it will happen sometime... and fate tells me it is now."
"Dad-" Was all she managed to get out
"I will be fine Bella. Don't worry about me. I will always love you, I remember watching you grow, and that is what I will take with me to the grave. Who knows what will be next in this life?"
"Dad, there is another option...you won't ever have to die"
"Bella," I cautioned her "Are you sure?"
"Anything to save him" She muttered, holding my hand.
"Bella, what's going on?" Charlie croaked again, confused.
"Dad, have you ever wondered what I am? That I am something else? Why people down at La Push hate the Cullens?"
"Oh. Oh. You are something, alright Bella. But I don't know what." He flinched at the memories of Jacob strip in front of him and phase.
"Dad... I'm... a.... I'm a... I'm a vampire dad. Please don't be scared. We are fully controlled. Please don't be afraid."
"A... vampire?" Charlie's thoughts were confused... mesmerized.
"Yes" Carlisle mused.
"That explains a lot... but... the danger you put my daughter in when she was human! How could you?" The colour in his face changed slightly and then cooled back.
"As Bella said, we are very controlled" I said. He was taking this very well. In everything he was afraid of the past! Ha! What about now? Why wasn't he afraid? His thoughts were very simple and plain, understanding. This shocked me, I expected him to run away, but then again that would explain where Bella got it from. He knew Bella was fine and that was all that mattered to him.
"Do you have any questions?" I asked
"I don't need any. I only need to know the basics. So, if I became a ... vampire I would never die?"
"Unless you were cut up and burned"
"I don't want to become... one of you. Like I said, I want to die now."
"Please think about it dad. You're in pain..." Bella whispered
"Honey, there is nothing to think about. It is time"
"What about me?"
"You will be fine. And very happy. I will always love you, of course. And looking at you, you are in pain. I am sorry, but it is the only way... of course it will be hard at first, but you will be fine, love. I promise. I will be watching you"
Bella said nothing, her wide, beautiful eyes were so sorrowful. She looked almost unhealthy; her skin was tight over her cheekbones, her face even paler. I didn't know such a thing was possible.
"Absolutely," Carlisle said "We will do what you want. But would you like any painkillers while you are... like this?"
"I'm a tough man, I can live through it" He attempted a grin and coughed. Bella straightened up.
"Dad, do you want me to get you anything?" she attempted a valiant face.
"No thanks, love." I could tell he was fighting the pain back, like his daughter.
"Are you sure? Do you want me to get Sue?"
I can't believe she is a vampire! It makes so much sense but it still is... confusing. Oh well, at least she is alive and well. That is all that matters now, I can leave her knowing she will be fine and live an extremely long happy life. It explains a lot. I've discovered there is more to this life than people expect.
Sue came in that moment with a bowl of soup in her hand, her eyes were wide and red, and her face was tight but she was trying to pull herself together. Attempting a smile, she laid the bowl in Charlie's lap and he started at it.
We all sat there in silence, watching Charlie eat noisily, slurping up the tomato soup. It was a rather uncomfortable silence; Carlisle was slumped on the floor, Sue was next to Charlie watching his every move and Bella and I sat on the other sofa, my eyes on her, her eyes on me.
Once Charlie was finished, he attempted to get up but Carlisle stopped him quickly
"Charlie, you need to rest." Charlie nodded absentmindedly and crouched back down onto the sofa in an uncomfortable position. Bella and I heard a car come to a stop at exactly the same time. She got up and opened the door as they approached the house. Billy was in his wheelchair with Jacob pushing it. Both their faces were hard and mournful. Billy glanced at Bella fist, his eyes sorrowful and then darted to me. He nodded his head as they came further in. Jacob just looked at Carlisle with curious eyes.
Wonder what's wrong with the poor man. What the hell is doc gonna go to help him? Does he know about vampires yet?
Jacob was looking at me and I nodded my head
How did it go?
I shrugged.
That's good. How is Bella?
I looked at him, my face hard and cold.
Thought so. Poor girl, she doesn't need this. What's Charlie gonna do?
"Excuse me, I just need to talk to Jacob alone," I looked at everyone "Don't worry love, I'm just going outside" I said so low that only she could hear. She nodded and let go of my hand as Jacob and I walked out slowly from the now-crowded room. When we were far enough, I turned to face him.
"He has pneumonia" I said
"Oh." He looked down at his feet.
"And we have given him the choice, he could have surgery... die or become one of us, but he wants to die. He thinks that it is time."
"Silly man. But I do get his point"
"But he took it very well, the vampire part. He was mainly worried about the past, when Bella was human. He wasn't worried about the danger right now"
"Hmmm... and Bella?"
"Worse. It's hard to see her like this... and when he is gone, which will be quite soon I think, it will break her. And I don't know what to do."
"Don't fret, man. We have been through this kind of thing before, right?"
"But maybe it won't work out this time"
"You two have forever, so don't worry." He grinned at me and placed his hand on my shoulder. That was a first.
Bella and Carlisle came out then, both looking sad.
"We are going Edward" Carlisle said, gloom in his voice.
"Ok. Talk to you later Jacob"
"Will do"
I walked away and put my arm around Bella as we went to the car. She sighed as she looked back at the house and we drove away.
A minute later we were in front of the house. Alice and Olivia were standing in the porch, their eyes intrigued.
"Hi" Alice said, still a bit gloomy. Olivia looked dead-like too.
"Guys, you don't need to be sad just because Charlie is dying. Life goes on, right?"
"Of course."
"Bella, try to be happy. Please." I asked her
"I will try." I squeezed her hand as we walked closer to the two girls.
"Bella, I said you should talk to Olivia. Let's go downstairs"
"Ok" She said as we followed them. We walked down the stairs to the long oval table. Olivia and Alice sat on the left side and we sat on the right.
There was a short silence, and Alice ended it.
"Bella, this is Olivia, Bella, Olivia" She gestured. The girl smiled at her and then me.
Bella seems a nice girl, I could become good friends with her, oh and she is lucky. Edward seems a really nice guy. Her daughter is beautiful. I would like to get to know her. Alice said I would like her.
Olivia was a nice girl, she would get along with Bella. Her thoughts were sometimes complex and a little sour but mostly kind. Her light brown hair hung past her shoulders. She was rather pretty. I realised she was staring at me as I was looking at her funnily, her wide eyes confused.
"Hi Bella. It's nice to properly meet you"
"You too"
"I love your home. It's perfect! And Renesmee is beautiful"
"She is very special," Bella grinned, that was a first. "So you can... time travel?"
"I can. It is an interesting ability. In my human life I focused a lot on the past and the future and... Here I am!"
"Can you go back to any time?" she said, riveted.
"Any time until the person changes, like I can only go up to when I was changed to a vampire. But if someone dies then, yes, that works. What about your ability? That seems interesting" She was being very kind.
"It's like a mega shield thing. It's... useful," She smiled again which made me happy. "Do you mind... showing me your ability? I'm curious"
"Sure! Ok, everyone place your hands in the middle of the table" Everyone did and she grasped her long fingers over the ball of hands and closed her lids almost gracefully. Then I looked at the clock, it was two minutes ago. We all laughed in unison
"That was interesting" I said
"It's extremely powerful and interesting," Alice said "Olivia's ability and mine make a brilliant match. To see the future and go there at the same time... it makes everything stronger."
"But using everyone's abilities here... we would make an indestructible team. It would be excellent. So don't worry Bella, if something comes for you we will be ready. And if its needed, my powers will save us if we let it slip" He face and thoughts were still optimistic as the words that came out of her mouth. And surprisingly, Bella took her word and trusted her. I could tell this was going to be the start of a strong friendship. Emmett came through then and sat down at the top of the table
"Hey guys. Err, what are you doing?" He said, grinning at me. My favourite brother always made me smile back without thinking about it.
But my mind was somewhere else, Bella was happy. Well at least her new friend made her happy. That was good enough for me. Maybe my frozen sun was gradually melting again, everything would be back tomorrow. My thoughts were suddenly interrupted by Alice's
Oh Yay, ten days until the party! I better get a move on there will be a lot of guests... I need to go shopping with Bella tomorrow, and maybe I could invite Olivia. It will brighten Bella's day. Ha-ha. I need to buy a lot of flowers; I don't want to touch the ones in the meadow. I need to buy a dress, some new sprays to use... oh so much!
We had ten days. My question was how long did Charlie have? And he wouldn't be able to come to the party anyway. To be honest, looking at him he looked like he only had a week. That gave Bella three days to be sad, and hopefully she would have perked up by the party. Three days.
Charlie, the burly Burn brother then strode in
"Hey, Emmett! That was not fair! I declare a rematch!" he said playfully. Emmett chuckled broadly and stood up
"Talk later" He said as he closed the door. Alice was looking at me, she looked happier now too. Bella and Olivia were talking to each other quietly while Alice continued to make arrangements.
"Hey Olivia, Bella, will you come shopping with me tomorrow?"
"Where?" Bella asked.
"Paris? London?" She shrugged
"Anywhere closer?"
"Oh ok. New York it is then" she laughed as she looked into the future "Oh yes, that dress is beautiful Olivia!"
"You are showing me which one tomorrow" Olivia laughed
"Hey, Edward? Can I go see Nessie now? It's been a long time" she smiled again and my mind went blank for a quarter of a second.
"Of course. See you later" I said to them both. We entered the living room where Esme sat with Nessie. She looked up at Bella and me with anticipation, her eyes burning with love. She reached out for Bella and she was then in Bella's arms. She grinned at her showing her milky white teeth. Bella grinned back and sat down snuggling Renesmee closer to her.
"I have missed you" Bella whispered
"I missed you too momma. Where have you been?"
"To see Grandpa Charlie"
"Pa pa Charlie? What is wrong?"
"He is very ill"
"Oh no. What can I do?" Nessie always wanted to help, like her Mom.
"Nothing sweetie. But Pa pa Charlie is leaving us soon"
"Up to... heaven?"
"Yes" She said, her voice brittle.
"He will be happy there" she said with confidence.
"I know"
"Don't worry momma." She placed her hand on her cheek showing her Charlie grinning. Bella smiled.
"I will miss him a lot"
"Yes but you will know he will be happy!"
"Yes I do."
"Good. Momma, I am here. I will look after you" she said in such a sweet tone nobody in the room could help from chuckling.
"I love you Nessie" She grinned, kissing her on the cheek. Renesmee started playing with her hair and showed her that she wanted to play hairdressers. Alice was in here in a flash with a box of hair bands and bits, grinning widely, Bella winced and grimaced. I chuckled again.
"There you go, Nessie!" Alice said
"Thank you" she said as she started to brush Bella's thick hair elegantly and getting out the bright coloured bands. Her light fingers started making braids in her hair and in a few minutes she was done. Bella's hair looked like it had been done by an adult- not an almost one year old!
"Beautiful!" I praised Renesmee, winking at Bella. They both smiled at me, Esme giggled with Alice.
"Bella, one thing. Don't take them out tonight, your hair will look beautiful tomorrow" She grinned.
"Oh god" she sighed playfully and Renesmee giggled in high soprano. It was three o' clock, the day was fading quickly, but the evenings were always something to look forward to.
"So Nessie, what have you been doing today?" I asked her with high spirits
"Playing with Grandma Es-e-me," she said. She could speak properly but she enjoyed calling people other things. "We played lots of fun games outside and we played hide and seek!"
"That was fun" Esme said lightly. I smiled at her and then looked back at Renesmee, the beautiful child on my lap. She was playing with the pocket on my shirt.
"Careful" I cautioned, grinning. She grinned back effortlessly.
"Daddy, are you worried about Momma?" she asked when Bella wasn't listening. I loved how she called me daddy. It was nice.
"Yes. But she seems happier today. She has made friends with Olivia, and seeing you happy makes her happy. You made her more confident today" I grinned at her. She smiled back at me.
Jacob then walked through the door with a wide smile upon his face.
"Hey Nessie"
"Jacob!" She called, reaching out to him. He took her quickly into his arms.
"Want to go play wolfie?"
"Yay Wolfie!"
"Hey, Edward"
"Hi, be careful with her"
"You think I would let her get hurt?"
"Of course not"
They both then ran outside. Jacob was in his wolf form with Renesmee running behind him. He then swung her onto his back and they were running. Bella was sitting watching television with Esme, talking at the same time. I was very happy today, Bella was suddenly so much happier; my sun was melting at last. Each time I glanced at her dazzling face a piece of stone was breaking off, her smile was more powerful.
The day flew by quickly and with grace, Renesmee and Jacob were home at five and we took her back to the cottage at seven as she went to sleep. Bella and I spent our evening happily.
"I'm glad to see you happy" I said at one point in the evening. She kissed me.
"It feels good to be happy again, to not worry for once about the future."
"You never need to, love. You are always safe with me. Charlie is ok, and that is all that matters. Renesmee told you that."
"I know. I will let him go, as much as it will hurt. Maybe it is his time." She winced.
"It is. Don't worry about anything. While we are on this subject, is there anything else bothering you?"
"Having to go shopping to New York tomorrow!" she giggled and moaned.
"You know Alice."
"I sure do. We have to leave at seven because apparently 'we are going to shop till we flop!'" She said, copying Alice's voice almost perfectly. I laughed at her sarcasm.
"What about you?" She asked, her voice quiet but beautiful
"I am glad really, seeing you happy again. You don't know how painful it was to see you like that. But I am slightly worried about what Alice is going to do to you tomorrow."

Birth of Heroes: Part 2
Book by: Evan Matthews
Status: Finished
Genre: Science Fiction
Chapter2 (v.1)
The hanger the two ships landed in was, in a word, messy. Things of such beauty and excellence didn't seem so belong in a place like this. With controls and monitors stacked from the debris filled floor, to the stained roof. All the tools you could imagine where probably somewhere in the building; Either on the floor, or a shelf, or a box, or any other number of things. Various creations, in the making or demolishing, were piled in the corners too.
"Well Michello, you run a good race. You gave the Fly II a run for it's money." Said a Xanitaur, poking his head out of the roof of the ship. The top was slowly shifting so he could step in and out.
"I try Teias, I try." Said Michello, he too stepping out of the glossy craft. "Now, you're sure we could borrow these? They are your dad's newest models." He then continued, flicking a speck off the Fly I's seamless surface.
"Oh yeah, just as long as we get out of here before he gets back!" Teias said, running toward the exit, beginning to shut the hanger bay doors as he went. Michello ran after him, Yes, but this is one race I will win.
After passing the guards and entering into the castle, the two Xanitaur lounged around one of the parapets overlooking the market. The sun was just past its great arch. Already, long shadows crept over the land.
"May the gods of love bless me." Whispered Michello.
"What was that?" Teias asked, coming to lean on the barricade with his friend. "Don't tell me you see my sister down there. Honestly."
"I can't help it man. She is the image of beauty. A glowing crystal in a cave of darkness. She is like the sun; she's here, yet I can't touch her.
His friend tried not to laugh, and failed. "I think you've been racing too long my friend. Where in the worlds did you hear that load of garbage?"
Michello looked up from his reverie indignantly, yet smiled. "Actually I overheard some old Dracon telling someone's future. Poor guy." They both laughed and looked back down on their home.
It was true, Karissa truly was beautiful to almost any Xanitaur's standards. However, at the moment she was only interested in getting things from the market. The two Xanitaur watched her from the tower as she moved from stall to stall looking at food, jewelry, toys, and the many different colored, cape-like stiffs. The two also watched her talk to a young Kez sitting outside his stall. He seemed to be roughly the same age, but with the Kez, it is sometimes hard to tell. After she had gotten a few things, plus a new stiff from the Kez, she walked down to her house on the end of the grass-trampled street.
"Still, what I wouldn't do to at least get to know her." Michello continued, following her down the street with his eyes.
"Hmm. Although what you're doing is basically stalking my sister, I'll tell ya what; My family is inviting Elder Perfin to dinner tonight. How about you join us? I'll introduce you."
"Teias, Perfin and I are friends with you, even Karissa, and me. I don't need to be introduced." Michello said, raising a ridged eyebrow.
"Are you really that stupid? Listen Mitch; you and me are best friends, but you worry me sometimes."
"Hey hey! C'mon now, some friend. I know you want to introduce me to Karissa. Thanks man."
"Whew, you had me scared." Teias said, giving Michello a shove. They both headed down the ramparts and were soon among the fading crown of the market.
"Valandiil, come back to your studying." Whispered a serpentine voice from inside the hut. It was getting rather warm out, but it was breezy. However, Valandiil was glad to get back inside. Even after talking to that female Xanitaur and watching her walk home from his small stiff stall.
"Yes father Kelton." Answered Valandiil, strutting back inside.

In this series Comment is free writers and editors want to highlight some of the best comments on the site. Each week, either an editor or the author of a recent piece will pick a comment that they think contributes to the debate. Hopefully it will give staff and readers an opportunity to see how thought-provoking such contributions can be and allow great posts the chance to be seen by a wider audience.
This week, Frances Ryan has chosen a comment by Clariana on her article about disability awareness:
"It's one thing to suffer disability in the mist of plenty. I understand the Camerons had at least one nanny for their child and neither of them had to give up their careers to care for him or forfeit holidays, say … It's quite another thing to undergo disability when you are already struggling to make ends meet or you depend for your income on a job you can no longer keep when disability comes a knockin'.
"What people need to be aware of is the frailty and fragility of well-being and prosperity and that basically disability ain't the disabled person's fault! You'd think this would already be obvious, but no ..."
Frances Ryan explains why she chose this comment:
"I picked this comment because it highlights a really important issue: the way that disability and its effects don't exist in a vacuum but, rather, are tied to economics. This isn't about division – no amount of money can buy away a disability – but acknowledging that poverty and disability often go together, and therefore that a government that takes financial support away from disabled people actually disables those people further."
Clariana tells us her reasons for commenting on the piece, and gives us a bit of personal information:
Have you commented on Cif before?
Many times. Almost too many times, my activity page says 3,000+
For how long have you commented on the Guardian?
For more than 10 years … Ye gods, time passes fast as you get older.
How would you describe the community of commenters you find here?
Wonderfully diverse. I love them. Engaging, witty, thoughtful, irreverent, leftwing and those other types …
Why did you feel motivated to comment on this piece?
I was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2003 when I was 40 and rheumatoid arthritis a few years after that. I'm fine, fingers crossed, but it made me very aware of health and disability issues. I also worked as an employment law adviser in an advice centre at one point and of all my clients, those with disabilities had it the hardest in terms of bullying, discrimination and other work issues.
In regards to your comment highlighted here, do you feel you changed the conversation or moved the debate on?
I felt it brought together a series of relevant points. It was better expressed than most of my stuff (though it contains a painful spelling mistake "mist" rather than "midst"!). I've never understood why the disabled are considered "other" when on a given day they could be any of us. I thought what happened to Andrew Marr was a good example of this and it's something we all need to ponder every now and then.
Where are you in the world?
In the UK, just south of Watford, mostly. Occasionally, I'm commenting from Spain.

- 2 eggs
- Butter or vegetable oil for frying
1Crush crackers in food processor or by smashing them with a rolling pin or other heavy object.
2Peel potatoes.
3Grate potatoes using a food processor grater. You can also grate them finely using a food grater.
4Grate or finely chop onion using the food processor blade or a knife.
5Add the crushed crackers, eggs, salt and pepper to potato/onion mixture.
6Process using the food processor chopper blade, until finely chopped, or mix together in a mixing bowl.

If this question (or a similar one) is answered twice in this section, please click here to let us know.
- Be sure to spread the batter thin for the best tasting pancakes.
- Keep the pancakes warm in a 200 to 250 degree F oven.
- Drain off the excess liquid when forming the potato pancakes. When using a food processor the liquid is kept to a minimum. The liquid can form while frying the pancakes so try to drain as much of the liquid from the batter when forming the pancakes.
- Fry the pancakes in an electric skillet set at 275 to 300 °F (135 to 149 °C).
- Using cracker crumbs, instead of flour, helps alleviate the floury taste often found in other potato pancake recipes.

No, we didn't make a boo-boo and book the wrong flights, we have actually decided that some solo travelling is calling us..
Thinking of venturing on an epic journey into the Australian outback? Check out some of the sights you could be seeing..
Cairns is famous for the Great Barrier Reef where you can snorkel and dive with turtles and sharks. Bonus to this are a range of stunning...
Are you keen on the prospect of waking up every day beside 10 other people? You saucy thing you...
After a few weeks of breaking free from the routine of our house-share in Noosa and travelling once again, we...
We have, until now, relied on hitching and ride-share's to get around...
There's something special about very much still being the same planet as everyone else, but feeling just a tad detached from everything, in a really refreshing way...
We have gone back out into the world, left behind Noosa, a bubble of abundant wealth and neat beauty...
We have had our ups and downs over our 3 years together, but this has been mostly down...
Will these 12 reasons be enough to get you on a plane to Australia?!
The beauty of travel is not always found in constant movement or change, sometimes its in living somewhere long enough to love it, but not long enough to hate it.
I needed to be with my lovely family, as did Taran. as much for them as for us.
Australia has become home for the past year, and as much as we love it, it certainly isn't perfect...
Rousing ourselves sleepily at 5am, we crawled out the tent, and took the short hop over a fence and..
"he finally woke up, rising to his feet, clearly utterly oblivious to what had just happened."
Camping on Whitehaven beach was a privilege and an amazing experience; we never wanted to leave!
We have returned to the life of travel, having lived on a farm for 3 months and an island for 2!
A month or so ago, when we applied for jobs here on Fraser Island, we didn't know what to expect...
Just 2 weeks ago we got some awesome news, we had secured paid work on Fraser Island!
So do you want to live and work on a farm in rural Australia? Well here's some useful tips on the realities of the experience!
These 6 photos show the awesome diverse range of landscapes in Australia, check em' out!
The dolphins feeding is a monitored and sanctioned activity; they are not dependant on the humans, just in the habit of visiting that spot and putting on a cute little show for visitors to get some breaky.
Speeding out of the harbour on a baking day, we hit the windy extremes of the open sea, coming up alongside Fraser Island (which looks as cool as we imagined it might), we headed out to find them.
I've always fantasized about the idea of living in the old American west, riding horses, days spent amongst the sun and the dust... So to find ourselves donning farm clothes, waking with the day, working amongst nature in the closest possible way, well, it's been bizarre, sometimes hard but mostly amazing. We are living the farming dream!
Our mildly desperate hunt for farm work was nicely broken up with a 3 day excursion up the coast with our Brisbanite friend Rachel. We decided to hit up 1770, a small town, right next to an equally small seaside town Agnes Waters.
Arriving in Bargara a few days before getting to Kelly's, we felt a tad apprehensive. Would the people be nice? Would the work be fair? Would it be a good use of our time?
Brisbane was meant to be a two-three day stopover, because it would just be another concrete jungle right? Yes and No.
Off to Brisbane via Surfers Paradise we went. Hitch-hiking our way out of town, we spent a good hour, the warmest of the day, holding our weary arms out. We instinctively knew it would only be a matter of time, but that doesn't stop you sweating in the midday sun.
This was more than just a pot-fest, this was a sensical display highlighting just how non-sensical the laws around cannabis are; its hopefully something that won't be debated in the future, once it becomes legal and common-place across the world, not in just some places.
The hostel is home to water lizards, greedy birds, lots of pesky bush turkeys and many mosquito's! The guy who does the entertainment has a cockatoo who says "Let me out!. It's quite a cool setting, with a pond, lots of bush-land and some lazy hammocks to relax in.
Read about our travels across the wild, beautiful and exciting land-down-under, Australia.

†The Family Heart Study is a National Institutes of Health-funded multicenter study.
Correspondence to: Robert L. Jensen, PhD, Pulmonary Division, LDS Hospital, Salt Lake City, UT 84143; e-mail: email@example.com
The purpose of the study was to determine the best surrogate for FVC when performing spirometry to detect obstruction or restriction. Volume-time curves from 3,539 participants in the Family Heart Study with acceptable quality test sessions were analyzed. An index of the variability of each timed volume (FEVx) from 1 to 12 s was determined for each subject. The least within-test session variability was seen for forced expired volume in 6 s (FEV6) and forced expired volume in 7 s (for both, mean range was 95 mL). The sensitivity and specificity for detecting obstruction and restriction when substituting the FEV6 for the FVC were then determined before and after allowing for measurement errors of 50 mL (approximately the lower limit of spirometers ability to detect volume). Sensitivity was 76% before the 50-mL error analysis and 95% after. Specificity was 98% before the 50-mL error analysis and 99.5% after. We conclude that use of FEV6 to replace the FVC for spirometry testing will result in improved reproducibility, with no significant loss of sensitivity or specificity, after allowing a 50-mL measurement error, for detecting obstruction or restriction.

The 2014 Security Jam will bring together the full range of stakeholders and experts to address the new reality and develop concrete policy recommendations to address the key challenges.
To be held over 54 hours, from October 14-16, 2014, the Security Jam will be a catalyst for creative thinking by national, UN, NATO, and EU policymakers, experts, NGOs, industry representatives, soldiers, journalists, scholars and opinion-leaders.
The Jam is organised into six forums:
1. The new global balance
What do the U.S. pivot to Asia and declining Western influence mean in economic, diplomatic, and security terms for powers such as Russia, China, India or Turkey? Is China showing renewed inter-est in Europe as a security player? What impact will NATO's Afghan draw-down have on regional peace?
2. The EU as a global security broker
Is the EU a credible security provider, and if not, what are the elements needed to reinforce its global status? Have Europeans agreed on common security interests or will differences in member states' foreign policy vision continue to plague the Union? What lessons can Europe draw from its humanitarian and development experience?
3. NATO's role 2025
Can alliance members maintain their own security with-out NATO? After the NATO Newport Summit, are the allies more prepared to react robustly to threats? Recent tensions with Russia have led to a renewed faith in the organisation as well as public debate in Sweden and Finland about joining NATO, but is that only temporary?
4. Cyber-security and cyber-defence
What can governments and citizens do to ensure the internet remains a free yet secure global common and continues to contribute to economic and societal development? Can international rules be enforced let alone be agree upon? How much freedom and privacy are citizens prepared to forgo in the name of security?
5. Case study—Ukraine and Russia
Do Europeans, Americans and Russians suffer from a profound cultural misunderstanding or is this crisis all about realpolitik? How far has Russian domestic pres-sure influenced the conflict? How has propaganda affected people's perceptions of the conflict?
6. Case study—Syria
With ISIL spreading terror both Syria and Iraq and the resulting coalition to defeat it, what role can the UN and the Security Council play, and is it even possible the Gulf Cooperation Council or the Arab League could eventually broker a deal?

Caught in the Logic
A rambling commentary/story of sorts about the indecision and confusion of an analyst trying to find the happy medium between cold reasoning and blissful ignorance.
Just lying here, innocent
The world doesn't ever fit
So I say,
While wasting the
Day away.
Trying to take a chance, but
I still can't even glance
Fate in the eye
I know that
I should have tried
So why
Why do I just freeze up
Why can't I just ease up
Make up the lines
And try to fly
While dancing wildly
Out of time
I know
That it might be possible, to
Get out but not fall through
The cracks
I'd made before
From shutting the only door
Too loud and
Too hard.
I had to
Make a point, I thought
I still think so, at that
But the point
Stabbed back. Left me
Off track
Disoriented, and
Forever confined
To the bed
That I have made
I am afraid, I thought I knew
Though I doubt I'm fit to choose
I had so much
I didn't see the value of it
But the reasons
I inherited from
My departure
Only let me go one way, as
The past is a folly,
The future a cage.

- 3 ounces chocolate wafer cookies, finely crushed (2/3 cup)
- 1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons sugar
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened, plus more for brushing
- 6 ounces bittersweet chocolate, coarsely chopped
- 2 ounces unsweetened chocolate, coarsely chopped
- 4 large egg yolks
- 6 large egg whites
- Pinch of salt
- Vanilla Bean Crème Anglaise
Preheat the oven to 400°. In a bowl, stir the crushed cookies with 2 tablespoons of the sugar. Brush eight 4-ounce ramekins with butter and coat with the cookie mixture, pouring out the excess. Place the ramekins on a baking sheet and refrigerate.
In a double boiler, melt the 3 tablespoons of butter with the bittersweet and unsweetened chocolates. Remove from the heat and let cool.
In a large bowl, using a handheld electric mixer, beat the egg yolks with 6 tablespoons of the sugar at medium speed until pale and thickened, about 4 minutes. Gradually beat in the cooled chocolate.
In another bowl, using clean beaters, beat the egg whites with the salt until soft peaks form. Gradually beat in the remaining 2 tablespoons of sugar until the whites are glossy. Beat one-fourth of the egg whites into the chocolate, then fold in the rest with a rubber spatula. Spoon the batter into the ramekins, filling them almost to the top. Sprinkle each soufflé with 1/2 teaspoon of the cookie mixture. Run your thumb inside the rim of each ramekin to smooth the sides and help the soufflés rise evenly.
Bake the soufflés in the center of the oven for 15 minutes, or until risen and set around the edges but still soft in the centers. Set the ramekins on heatproof plates and serve right away with the Vanilla Bean Crème Anglaise.

The IVC Foundation was founded to assist in the achievement and maintenance of superior program of public education and community participation with the South Orange County Community College District by receiving contributions from the public, raising funds and making contributions to educational and community programs of the district and by developing, conducting and financing program projects designed to benefit the students enrolled in Irvine Valley College.
In general we serve the Irvine and Tustin city areas, but our students come from all over Orange County and we are open to students from all states and most nations across the globe. Our special events and Performing Arts Center are open to the general public.

How does this organization make a difference?
Self-reported by organization
Our student body is comprised of over 15,000 individuals, both full and part time learners. Scholarships are given to deserving students so that they may continue their education. For the 2014-2015 educational year we awarded 548 scholarships for a total of $372,806. In addition we hold many Foundation accounts for our departments and division administrators so that the students can be facilitated to have the best educational experiences. An example of this would be the fundraising that is done to pay for travel expenses to attend competitions for our Forensics and Model United Nations Teams, which have placed 1st in National Competition against 4 year colleges. From a recent Forbes magazine article that validates the value of community college, ""Forget Four More Years: Why Community College Could Be Your Ticket to Financial Success,"" published on Dec. 31, 2012:""Does less classroom time equal a bigger bottom line? New research shows that when it comes to earning big bucks right after graduation, community college graduates have an edge over those with four-year degrees."" ""28% of associate's degree holders buck the trend by out-earning their bachelor's degree counterparts over the life of their careers. File this under further proof that now more than ever, getting a job in this economy is about what you've studied vs. where and for how long."" We owe these hard working individuals the best support possible.
Self-reported by organization
What are the organization's current programs, how do they measure success, and who do the programs serve?
Program 1
Veterans Program
The goal of veterans attending Irvine Valley College is to make IVC the most veteran friendly and veteran supportive campus in Orange County, California. Veterans returning from Iraq/Afghanistan receive educational benefits for four years of educationA total compressed 36 months (9 months of educational benefits over 4 years). This includes tuition, fees, and a monthly allowance of $2,001.However, for those weeks where a veteran is not in class (spring break, winter break, summer school and weeks between sessions), the benefits are pro-rated and are paid only while the vet is in classes.So how do those who put their lives on the line for our freedom afford living expenses between school breaks?
Program long term success
For veterans who have to work (and most do) to fund their college education, the burden of work and school is considerable. As a nation and certainly here in Orange County we can do better in supporting our vets.It's nearly impossible in California for a student to complete a degree in four years in California state schools due to the cut backs and limited availability of classes.Veterans who have been discharged in California but who are not California residents may face costs of higher out of state tuition, even though their life now…friends, spouse and children are in California. Long Term success will allow our Veteran Students to have all their education paid for while they are here at IVC, and leave them with their Veteran's Benefits to be available for their 4 year or Postgraduate study.
Program success monitored by
What is not working is College budgets have been slashed to the point that we do not have adequate counseling, tutoring and case management support services for our veterans. Because they often need more assistance when moving back into the educational system the lack of these critical student support services place our veterans at risk in their quest for a quality education. In Orange County at IVC, with your help we can do better.
Program success examples
Examples of program success are our Veteran's who graduate with an AA or AS from IVC and then transfer to a 4 year college for their Bachelor's and Master's degrees. Students who start at IVC and then transfer to a UC or CSU college get better grade averages on average than students who started at those colleges as Freshman and continued through all 4 years. IVC prepares our Veteran Students to compete with the best when they move on in school or business.

Program 2
Advanced Manufacturing, Advanced Digital Manufacturing and Advanced Energy Management
Irvine Valley College has a campus dedicated to development of Advanced Manufacturing, Advanced Digital Technology, Advanced Energy Management The mission at Irvine Valley College ATEP is ""to offer applied education and training programs in current and emerging technological careers driven by innovative business, industry and education partnerships."" Our focus is on delivering training in advanced manufacturing, advanced digital imaging, and advanced energy management. The recent Orange County Workforce Indicators report reveals that manufacturing, based upon size of cluster employment, is among the top 3 clusters. Irvine Valley College collaborates with regional Workforce Investment Boards (WIBs) and businesses to recruit and place students to receive advanced manufacturing, advanced digital imaging, and advanced energy management training. Our target students include disconnected youth, dislocated workers, adults, veterans, and underprepared job seekers.
Program long term success
The economic and workforce development programs offered through the college are designed to upgrade skills and increase competency in digital design and manufacturing technologies. The goal is to provide students with training leading to certification and stackable certificates that will enable students to compete for higher level, better-paying jobs in their industry. We create a learning environment of the highest quality through multiple academic partnerships and strategic public/private alliances, in order to prepare students and incumbent workers to advance in many technological fields and add value to their employers and the local economy. The vision of Irvine Valley College ATEP is to prepare students in current and emerging technological careers for a globally competitive economy. Our course offerings explore emerging technologies, enriched through innovation, synergistic collaborations, and strategic alliances, for the principal benefit of the local community.
Program success monitored by
College faculty can track student success through student learning outcomes gathered from semester to semester. Student success rates are measured using persistence and completion rates data. The college's ""Student Success Scorecard"" reports progress with basic skills instruction, job training program outcomes, student retention, and graduation and completion rates.
Program success examples
Irvine Valley College/ATEP Economic and Workforce Development programs have to-date provided fee-based training for employees of 52 different companies in Orange County. Over 500 students to date have participated in fee-based technical workforce training. Most of these students were incumbent workers; however, there were also many unemployed, veterans and some ""at risk youth"" from the OC WIB.

In general we serve the Irvine and Tustin city areas, but our students come from all over Orange County and we are open to students from all states and most nations across the globe. Our special events and Performing Arts Center are open to the general public.
Funding Needs
At a recent Board of Governors meeting, four of the College's Deans brought forth their plans, desires and needs for the future. While raising funds for scholarships for our students is one of our primary goals, it is important to keep in mind that the facilities available can have a great impact on the learning abilities of the student population. It is important for students to be able to train on current equipment so that they can move into the many positions open in business, science and technology in Orange County and work in a competent manner. IVC also places a large value on helping the Veterans on our campus fill the gaps in the funding not covered by the GI Bill. Many of our Veteran students are married with children and have needs much different from our other population. In addition they have educational and personal counseling needs to be able to be assimilated into college as successful career bound individuals.

Frank Gratale understands the restaurant industry and Rachel Gratale understands the down-home spirit of southern hospitality. Together, the newlywed couple decided to combine their passions and found a barbecue restaurant dedicated to southern comfort foods, albeit with a contemporary twist.
RRQ's chefs remain faithful to the eatery's roots by making their own mustard and barbecue sauces in-house, and by hickory-smoking everything from brisket and pulled pork to St. Louis–style ribs and turkey. Sides of collard greens and fried okra also adhere to tradition, although the chefs demonstrate a willingness to experiment by creating pork empanadas and tempura-battered popcorn shrimp. Even the cocktail selection embraces convention as well as innovation, featuring drinks inspired by every decade from the 1950s to the 2000s.
Similarly, the dining room at RRQ manages to toe the line between the traditional and the contemporary. Framed black-and-white photographs adorn the storm-cloud-gray and pinkish-orange walls, lending a classical vibe along with the gleaming wooden bar and gently spinning ceiling fans.

|Passengers aboard the SS St. Louis ocean liner (Yad Vashem Archives)
Last week, Yad Vashem had the honor of welcoming six survivors who were passengers on the SS St. Louis, the ocean liner that departed Hamburg in May 1939 carrying hundreds of German Jews fleeing Nazi Germany. To the passengers' dismay the over 900 passengers, many of them Jewish, were denied entry twice, first by the Cuban authorities and subsequently by the American government who, despite intensive lobbying efforts by the local Jewish community, refused to allow the passengers to disembark at Havana, Cuba and Miami Beach, Florida. Captain Gustav Schroder tried to persuade Cuban and American authorities to allow the passengers to enter; however, he was eventually left with no choice but to turn back to Germany. Nonetheless, thanks to his courageous efforts and determination, the passengers were able to enter Belgium, France, Holland and the UK.

Sisters Gisela Feldman and Sonja Sternberg, 93 and 90 years old respectively from Manchester, UK, were both young girls when they boarded the SS St. Louis with their mother. Sonja will never forget the moment the ship was forced to turn around and head back to Germany, and how difficult this was for her mother. They remember parting from several of their family members in Berlin who they never saw again. "We were very lucky to have gotten out," recalled Sonja, now 90. "We lost our father and 31 other close family members."
