"Hey, Christy." Ana greeted her best friend.

"Hey, Ana." Christy greeted her back with a glance.

Ana gently sets down a paper bag of donuts and two coffee to-go cups.

"Cinnamon donuts. I have my usual cappuccino and your usual caramel latte." Ana said.

"Thanks, Ana." Christy thanked her with a small smile and takes a sip of her caramel latte.

Ana sits down at the table with Christy. "You're almost done with your book?"

"Yep. I'm on my last chapter right now." Christy said.

"I can't wait to read it." Ana said, taking a sip of her cappuccino. "And by the way, how are you gonna publish it?"

"I'm gonna publish my book with my full name and the other with my name." Christy said.

"And the published book with your name is going to your best friends, right?" Ana said.

"Yeah, sure." Christy said.

Ana and Christy exchange small smiles at each other.

"You should take a break from your book." Ana said and gently closes Christy's laptop.

"Where's Luna and Trinity?" Ana asked, eating a cinnamon donut.

"With the children's group at Camp Orasani." Christy tells Ana, eating herself a cinnamon donut.

"Where's Klaus and Elijah?" Ana asked.

"Lou and his henchmen gang are still in the French Quarter, so, I'm gonna assume that Klaus and Elijah will handle them." Christy said.

"And knowing Klaus, he's gonna tear them apart." Ana said.

"Yeah." Christy said.

Christy's phone buzzes on the table. She picks up her phone and looks at it.

Bassea

Christy answers her phone. "Hey, Bassea. What's up?"

"I need to talk to you about something." Bassea said on the telephone.

"Is everything okay?" Christy asked, worried.

"Everything's fine, I just want to see you, CC." Bassea said.

"Where are you?" Christy asked.

"I'm at the ornate temple with the Reverend Oracles." Bassea said.

"Okay, I'm on my way." Christy said, and hangs up her phone. And glances at Ana. "I gotta go. I'll be back."

"Okay." Ana said.

And Christy golden dust teleports away to the ornate temple.

HOME ISLAND OF MOUNT ORASANI -- ORNATE TEMPLE

Later that day, Christy slowly walks in the pillar hallway and into the main room.

Bassea is gently twirling a bo-staff in her hands. She and Christy exchange looks at each other.

"What's going on, B?" Christy asked.

"I've been having bad dreams about Tomar. I don't know why, I just do." Bassea said.

"You want to do some taijiquan with me?" Christy asked.

"Sure." Bassea said.

Christy and Bassea exchange small smiles at each other. Bassea gently sets down the bo-staff on the steps.

Christy and Bassea slowly walks to the middle of the floor and starts their taijiquan together.

"So, bad dreams about Tomar. It's causing you to not sleep at night." Christy said.

"Yeah, I woke up in the middle of the morning, thinking that Tomar was gonna come back to the dome apartment and trash it again." Bassea said.

"Tomar is making your new life a living hell because he's pissed off that you didn't end up in the dungeon with the rest of his bandit crew." Christy said.

And Bassea stops doing her taijiquan and looks at Christy. "So, Tomar is nothing but a bully?"

"Yeah, he is." Christy said, still doing her taijiquan. "Tomar knows about your successfulness. And now, he wants to destroy it."

Bassea becomes worried and Christy stops doing her taijiquan.

"You've come a long way from being who you were before we met." Christy said.

Suddenly, Christy goes to swift punch Bassea and she blocks Christy's swift punches.

Christy small smiles at Bassea's reflexes. "Very good, B. You've been keeping up with your training."

"Vek and I spar with each other sometimes." Bassea said.

Christy and Bassea exchange small smiles at each other.

"What if I encounter Tomar and his bandit gang again?" Bassea asked.

"You do what you have to do, so, he won't bother you anymore." Christy said.

"So, what are you saying, CC?" Bassea asked.

"Tomar thinks that you're still the scared young woman that he left behind, but you're not. Once, he knows what you're capable of, he'll back off. You have to bold up to him, Bassea, or he will continue making your life a nightmare." Christy said.

Bassea nodded in understanding.

"And besides, with your husband, Vek and your daughter, Arian, in your life, you have something to fight for." Christy said.

Christy and Bassea exchange small smiles at each other.

Christy gently wraps her arms around Bassea's arms as they slowly walks away.

"So, how's Arian?" Christy asked.

"She's good. She's walking now." Bassea said.

"Really? That's good." Christy said. "I can't wait to see her again."

Christy and Bassea exchange chuckles with each other.

Luna and Trinity both scurries up to their mother and hugs her. Christy hugs back her daughters.

Christy, Luna and Trinity exchange laughter with each other.

"Have you guys been on a yacht before?" Christy asked.

"Not really no." Luna said.

"But it sounds fun." Trinity said.

Klaus slowly walks out of the ballroom. He and Christy exchange looks at each other.

Klaus small smiles at her and she small smiles at him.

Christy, Luna and Trinity gently pulls away from the hug.

Klaus and Christy hugs each other and they kiss, passionately. She gently cups his face with her hands and he gently wraps his arms around her waist.

"And it's a good way to make up for some family time before I leave for Mount Orasani." Christy said.

"Of course, I'll come along." Klaus said.

Klaus, Christy, Luna and Trinity exchange small smiles at each other.

"You do have an influence on me." Klaus said. "So, how about a date before you leave?"

"Sure." Christy said. "Have you tried gumbo?"

"Gumbo? Sounds good." Klaus suggested. "And maybe, we can have some of Hagarth's tofu broccoli stir-fry as well."

{Christy Pajama Outfit}

Christy types on her laptop, finishing up her last book chapter.

Klaus gently crawls on the bed and slowly up next to Christy and gently lays down sideways.

"Are you nearly finished yet with your book?" Klaus asked.

"I'm on my last chapter." Christy said.

"Well, that's good, because I feel like your laptop has been getting more attention than me." Klaus said.

Christy looks at Klaus and chuckles. She averts her gaze back at her laptop screen, types for a few minutes, and gently closes her laptop.

"You're not gonna save your story drafts?" Klaus asked.

"It automatically saves itself." Christy said.

"So, you're done? Like, done?" Klaus asked.

"Yep. I'm done." Christy said, getting up and walks up to her dresser and gently puts her laptop in her backpack.

"How are you gonna print?" Klaus asked.

Christy turns around to look at her husband. "I have a USB flashdrive."

"How many chapters?" Klaus asked.

"You'll know when you read it." Christy said with a small smile.

Klaus chuckled softly to himself. "Pardoned my over excitement."

Klaus and Christy exchange small smiles at each other. She walks back over to him and gently sits back down on the bed.

"Klaus? I know you don't do yachts and other stuff, but seeing you happy and enjoying yourself and smiling, even though, you barely do, it makes me happy too." Christy said.

"I do appreciate it." Klaus said.

Klaus and Christy exchange small smiles at each other. She gently takes a pillow and playfully hits him with it.

Klaus and Christy exchange playful laughter with each other.

Christy then, gets behind him and gently wraps her arms around his neck and pecks a kiss on his forehead temple.

"I love you." Klaus said.

"I love you too, Hon." Christy said.

Klaus gently squeezes her hand, affectionately and pecks a kiss on her right cheek.
