My Way To You
/ My Way To You Chapter 202
"After I signed, I had no one left . It was home then work, nothing else for almost a year . Then I decided to go to the movies to escape from my life . A colleague recommended it then I found myself absorbed with soundtracks from every movie I watched . I started to play the songs all the time, while I was eating, walking, writing and working in the lab . I finally turned my life around after the live action Al*ddin came out . I memorize the music and found strength to move forward but it didn't last . I collapsed one day at work . Was rushed to hospital, blood was drawn and they found cancer in my ovaries . . . I was being punished for finding happiness, I wasn't allowed to forget my son, he needed justice and I was willing to accept it . I refused treatment and it didn't take long for the cancer to spread, I died a few months later . " Mrs . Dabney said as tears silently flowed downwards .
"You never got a chance to reunite with your son?" Ariana asked gently but her voice sounded three times louder then usual . "No, so I never got a chance to apologize to him . " Mrs . Dabney said pitifully . "You have a chance to make it up to him . " Ariana said as she took a few steps forward . The Dabneys looked at Ariana . "Brie, be the best you can be for her . " Ariana said . "Don't run away from her, face her when times are tough and if it gets too tough call for help . Call me if you have too . Don't do this alone . " Ariana said . More tears spilled from Mrs . Dabney's eyes . "I will . " She said with a gentle smile .

Ariana let out a small breath of relief . Now that she knew Mrs . Dabney's past was not pretty and more then anything she might stay up most nights for the next year to make sure her daughter doesn't suddenly die . It wasn't fair to keep things from them, especially with their lives potentially turning more dangerous . Ariana stood tall and took a deep breath in then out . "Only Edlyn knows the full truth about me . No one else . She knows that I died, she knows that I hated my previous life . Before I go any further I need to know, Roselyn are you working together with the church?" Ariana asked . "Why would you ask that?!" Mr . Dabney asked as his temper rose, he was still gingerly holding his daughter against his chest as she slept soundly .
"No she has a right to know . " Mrs . Dabney replied . "I don't care if it's a lie, I just want to hear you say that you aren't working for them . " Ariana said desperately . "No, I am not with the church and neither is Pascal . We are with a small rebellion . To be more accurate, I am a long standing member of the Summoned Children of Other Realms, Principalities, Intelligence, Opinions, Nations and Space . The SCORPIONS and we are against the church but at the same time I can't say we haven't had our eyes on you . " Mrs . Dabney said .
"So, was I played with? Did you approach me because you already knew about me . " Ariana asked pitifully . "Truthfully, no . " Mrs . Dabney said as her tears started to dry up . "We knew you existed but we, I had no idea where you were . So we fought against the church in our own way . We have been recruiting others, trying to build a small army so we can take down the church but without you it's a little hard . " Mrs . Dabney explained . "But you knew who I was . . . Why didn't you tell Roselyn . " Ariana asked Mr . Dabney .
Mrs . Dabney held out her hands and Mr . Dabney bent over and gently passed Brie to his wife . "You're a child . Using you for war is unthinkable . " Mr . Dabney said flatly as he gently brushed a small amount of brown tuff to the side of Brie's face as she slept in his wife's arms . "So I never reported it . " Mr . Dabney said as he stood up . "I think I can take the sling off now my love . " He said as he wiggled his fingers . "Take it off then but I would leave the walking cast on for another hour . " Mrs . Dabney instructed . "Mmmmh . " Mr . Dabney said as he removed the sling and tested his arm . "You didn't get mad?" Ariana asked .
"Sorry?" Mrs . Dabney asked . "You didn't get mad because Pascal didn't tell you about me?" Ariana asked . "Of course not! I'm not devoted to the SCORPIONS, I am grateful they took me in after my family threw my out the first time in my preteens . They helped me figure things out and how to handle being both past and present me but that's it . I would never serve you on a silver platter to them! Especially when I like you so much! My goodness did you miss the memo? I want you as Brie's godmother! Hello! I want you as my family . " Mrs . Dabney ranted . Ariana was left dumbfounded . Then she started to laugh . "You win, I shouldn't have worried about tell you everything . " Ariana said as she hugged herself .
"I hope not! I mean this is now your home too! Especially if your offering help! If I could have my way you would be living with us from now on . " Mrs . Dabney said with a giant humpf . "But I need to tell you more about what I'm hiding . " Ariana said as she caught her breath and calmed herself down . "Whatever you tell us will not shock us . " Mrs . Dabney said as she flashed a wicked grin . "My father is Shevar Guronui . " Ariana announced nonchalantly . The Dabneys became stone faced . "I'm sorry but could you say that one more time?" Mrs . Dabney asked with a shaky voice . "My biological father is Shevar Guronui and because of my mixed blood I change into a garnet humanoid dragon when I get my period . "
The Dabneys jaws dropped . "Nooooo, no, no, no, no, no . Are you sure?" Mr . Dabney asked as the shock wore off, to Ariana's surprise he paled a ghostly white .
