Buffy The Vampire Slayer A Family Tradition Prt 15 AUTHORS ACKNOWLEDGEMENT, Would like to acknowledge and in memoriam the highly modified image of Dawn Wells, gone to soon, always in our hearts and minds as long as you remember her and "Say her name" "There were many questions." Anne asks in a small voice, "There are more of me.?" Jessica ponders the question, raised an eyebrow, says in a calm measured tone, "There's more of almost everyone, there isn't uniformity, each Alternative Timeline, parallel universe, they are different, some are more advanced. Jessica pauses, looks around, continued in a similar tone, "Going by what I've seen, you're technology, your around a hundred or more years behind us, my home, it may take long, may be dramatically shorter for this universe to catch up with mine, hard to say." Buffy exhales softly, looks with glassy eyes at Willow, says in a child like voice, "Tree pretty, fire bad.?" Willow puzzles, pauses, puzzles, raised both eyebrows, says in a interested voice, "We did see a version of me from a Alternative Timeline and Parallel Universe, Vampire Willow, I guess what Doctor Smyth is talking about is kinda along those lines, kinda, I think I'm going to have to get a gigantic yellow crayon to explain this to myself." Channie nods, exhales softly, looks at Alex and Fred, says in a small voice, "I'll supply the blank paper. Vicki shakes her head, rubbing her temples, looks towards the front door, says in a embarrassed tone, "In all this excitement, I forgot to sign the closing paperwork for the station." Vicki smiles warmly, says in a "I'm completely innocent and cute tone, "I may have kinda sorta bought the station you currently work for." Vicki raised an eyebrow, says in a knowing tone, "My personal assistant knows where I am 24-7, don't ask me how, that put put sound you are hearing is her, her name is Dawn Wells, kinda a different type, older, had a dramatic traumatic experience year ago, left it's mark." Jessica nods, pauses, asked in a curious tone, "Anything to due with a three hour tour, a storm and a uncharted Island.?" Vicki puzzles, shakes her head, says in a knowing tone, "A PHD'ED researcher specialist in Antarctica, a plane crash, seven survivors, found themselves is a uncharted area in Antarctica, said to have unique energies, took a while to find and rescue them, those who knew Dawn in those years said she was very different than she was before, that had to be 30 years ago, she was down on her luck when I was introduced, when we shook hands, there was a connection, she's been my assistant every since. Vicki gives Jessica a knowing look, asked in a hopeful tone, "How long does it take for you to--" Vicki's voice trails off, looks again at Jessica asked in a interested hopeful voice, "To recharge.?" Jessica raised both eyebrows, thinks to herself, "Another reason why mom sent me here" Jessica hears her fuzzy friends telepathic voice as she says "Agreement achieved." Jessica says in a knowing tone, "I can give this Dawn Wells a physical, layout the "Possible Possibilities" as you have seen, the final choice has to be hers" There's a knock on the front door, a louder second knock, Fred goes to answer, Vicki says in a humorous tone, "My little Miss Dawn Wells has been known to be slightly inpatient, slightly." Jessica's heart almost broke when she saw an elderly slightly hunched version of her MaryAnn, this Dawn Wells leaning on Fred's arm, holding her walking stick waring her motorcycle helmet with a thick backpack. Fred helped Dawn Wells to a chair next to Vicki, Dawn Wells used the chair as a desk top to hold her back pack as she carefully takes out the paperwork, another chair is provided, Dawn Wells gave Vicki a concerned look at Vicki gestures towards Jessica and the chair, says in a calm quiet comforting reassuring tone, "Take a load off, let's have a conversation." Dawn nods, with Fred's assistant, gingerly takes a seat, gestures towards the paperwork, taking out her notary stamp, says in a slightly subdued tone, "Needs to be filed by end of business tomorrow, I have just enough time to get it filed today." Vicki nods, gently placed her hand on Dawn's, says in a calm quiet comforting reassuring tone, "Do you remember what I said when you first came to me looking for a job." Dawn nods, continued to set up the paperwork for Vicki to sign, says in a quiet voice, "You would take care of me." Dawn fussed a bit, says in a small voice, "Miss Lord, you gave me this job, that's more than enough care, aside from that--" Dawn's voice trails off." Vicki nods, gestures towards Jessica, looks at the paperwork, says in a knowing tone, "It's going to take me at least 10 minutes to sign on all the dotted lines, gives Doctor Smyth that long to give you a top to bottom physical exam, listen to what she has to say, by the time you get back, I'll have everything signed. Anne joined the conversation, looks at Dawn Wells, introduced herself with an extended hand, says in a uplifting manner, "Don't worry, I make sure everything is signed, what kinda bike do you--" Anne stopped in mid sentence as Buffy clears her throat, says in a calm quiet tone, "Are you going for 200 years." Dawn nods, raised an eyebrow, chuckled softly, says in a gentle tone, "She only means the best for you Young lady, it's a Honda." Anne chuckled, smiles broadly, gestures towards Jessica, says in a hopeful tone, "I am 16" Fred is helping Dawn Wells towards the guest bedroom, looks at Buffy, says in a calm quiet slightly defeated tone, "Let's go for 300 years." Fred very gently helps Dawn Wells take a seat, says in a hopeful tone, "I'm never far away." Jessica says in a quiet voice, "I'll take it from here." Fred leaves, Jessica introduced herself with a extended hand, Dawn Wells asked in a curious tone, "You look kinda young to be a doctor, been practicing long." Jessica smiles as she hears her fuzzy friends telepathic voice, "Flirting, we like flirting." Jessica begins running her scans, says in a calm tone, "A woman never tells." Jessica expression tells a story as she gestures towards Dawn Wells motorcyclists helmet, says in a small voice, "They put that on, told you to never take it off, they told you a lot of things, some true, some best guess, some out of fear of the unknown." Dawn nods, gestures towards her motorcyclists helmet, says in a quiet voice, "This, from what I was told is the only thing holding my skull together, you're right about the rest, they were afraid, said there was something wrong, something to do with exposure to something or another." Jessica nods, says in a knowing tone, "If it's ok, I'd like to due a more specific physical, again if you agree, I believe, I can help, you were exposed to unusual energies, it's caused a few delayed changes, they may present themselves as treatment begins, I well versed in altering transformations, you will be under my care" Jessica gestures towards the heavens, says in a positive tone, "I have the best backup." Dawn nods, says in a small voice, "I don't want her hurt, it's not her fault I face planted in those plants, then rolled in a a stream filled with all sorts of different types of spores and stuff, the cold water kept the swelling down, kept my head from completely falling apart, she calls herself Mary, Mary Hyde, has kept me company for thirty years, I'd rather stay as I am rather to see Mary hurt." Jessica nods, holds up a glowing golden hand of healing, says in a gentle tone, "I am a doctor, a healer, I by oath can do no harm, give me a chance, at the end of the day, the both of you will have a brighter future, a better tomorrow."
