Micah answered, "Sounds great!" He turned to his cousin. "Could we hang out with Kahlynn at the park tomorrow?

"Um, Frank?" Alec asked. "Wouldn't your 'brother's son' make him your nephew?" He squinted and thought it over. Yeah, that would make Ian a nephew. "Well, he was talking with this--" he bit back the word girl, "--friend of his, and said he was at Ian's house. And apparently Ian's been holed up out here in Ditto Town since he last left the headquarters." He stretched. "Remember that?"
Nate was currently at his home suffering from a double dip depression. For a little while he had gotten out of the dark but he had sunk back into it and hadn't left the house in several days.
He flipped the TV channel again. Another stinking war show, those dang Hollywood directors don’t know the slightest thing about war. Or the physics of getting shot at, it gives you a rush like no other and every time a bullet whizzes past you want to puke because you missed death by an inch.
“Nathaniel, you need to get out of this house and get some fresh air!” Angie yelled from the kitchen. Nate opened a window. He flipped the channel again. Finally, a racing channel, something that didn’t involve war, guns or deaths.
“Nathaniel Elliot Green” she said turning off the TV “Would you listen to me? Its not healthy staying closed up in this house all the time. Now would you please take a walk around town, for me?”
Nate stood up off the conch, put his baseball cap on “I’ll be back in a little while” he said walking out the front door. As he walked out his phone began to ring. He looked at the caller ID and it read ‘unknown name, unknown number’
“Somebody calling for money again” Nate said as he clicked receive on his cell phone “wait a minute; they only call land lines… Weird… Hello?”
“Is this Nathaniel Green?” The voice on the phone asked “Yeah, why?” Nate replied “Good. Do you have time to talk now?” Nate rolled his eyes “Yes…” The voice then said “Well then, let me introduce myself, My name is Ken Wolf, high ranking member of the FBI, we were all wondering if you would consider taking on a mission for us”
Nate sighed; just when he thought he would return to normal life “Your talking to the wrong Green, my brothers a ton more experienced then me” Ken Wolf replied “We tried to get in contact with him. However we couldn’t track him down”
“Joy” Nate responded “What’s the mission?” Ken said “It’s a smallish mission but you live near the trouble so we picked you” Nate replied “Ok…” Ken continued “A local thieve gang is doing some suspicious things we would like you to check it out”
“What? Don’t I get some high Tec gear?” Nate asked. Ken replied “No, that’s the CIA. Anyways we know you stole your issued military pistol, so you can use that” Nate filched and said “How did you know that?”
“We are the FBI, we know everything”
“Ok, scary”
“I know right?” Ken asked then said “Anyways, if you except the mission, we will give you every thing you need for the mission, like names, appearances, where they live. Stuff like that” Nate replied “Fine, I except, on one condition”
“What’s that?”
“I get a Mustang”
((Hey hummy, I hopes this is ok, I'm just trying to get invovled in the storyline))
If you ain't first, you're last.
Frank yelled, "What?" An assitant looked at him, to remind him that her was raising his blood pressure. He yelled, "Don't tell me wha to do!" He turned back to the phone. "Okay, Alec. I will meet you there at a park near where he lives. Just give me the location in Ditto Town. We will meet at fourteen o'clock tomorrow!"

Justin and Miley arrived at the hospital with Peter the next morning, around the same time Nate got the call. Peter turned to Miley. "There's your niece."
Miley's mouth opened in shock. "Oh, hey Weydon. How are you?"

When Weydon had awoke the next morning, Karver gently revealed a disappointing piece of news to her.
Solemnly, the little girl got out of her hospital bed and dressed with the help of Karver and a nurse. She still had a bit of dizziness from her transfusion, though most of it had worn off by now. Karver took her hand, and led her out the hospital room door.
As Karver filled out the paperwork of release, Weydon looked round the hospital waiting room. She saw a girl staring at her, who said hello.
Weydon nodded at the girl. "Hello. Are you Miley?" She smiled, but ruefully. Then she turned her eyes toward Justin. "Karver told me something... you might not like it."

Miley looked up at her brother, then at her niece. "What's wrong?"

Weydon looked at them sadly. "We're going back. Back to where we came from. Back to the beginning. Something hapenned, Karver told me, to someone she knows. Something bad. She wouldn't tell me everything. It's no one you know. Just... someone we know. And they need Karver's help. She's fantastic at searching records--" here she paused, and laughed a little-- "as you probably have guessed..."
She was quiet a moment.
"I have to go with. She's my guardian. And really, she's my sister too. Even though we're not related, she has always been my family. And she always will be. I can't throw away all she's done for me, no matter what happens.
"I'm glad I met you. I'm glad I had the courage to go through with it. Many times, I almost told Karver I didn't want to know who my father was. I didn't think you'd like me. But everything has turned out to be more beautiful than I ever could have imagined. And even though Karver, in my heart, will always be my true family, you can be too now. Even if we are far apart."
Karver finished up the paperwork. "Well, Weydon, it's time to go. Time to say your goodbyes." She nodded and smiled at Justin a little nervously.
Weydon nodded at her. Turning back to Justin, she tried to maintain a very mature, almost business-like composure -- the way she had seen adults act that she had respected. She liked to be respected. That was a sign she was grown up.
"Goodbye. Again, it was very nice to meet you..." her voice cracked toward the end. Maybe she wasn't as collected as she hoped she was. "I'll try to come back. Whether it's soon. Or in the future, when I'm older and on my own. I'll try to see you again." There were tears welling up in her eyes which she couldn't stop. Suddenly, even surprising herself, she rushed into Justin's arms and just sobbed, for the first time, as a daughter does with a father when troubled times are there.
She didn't know how Justin would feel about it. She didn't much care. She would have one moment with her real father before returning to the life she had always known before...
~Riella
Shocked by the news and Weydon's hug Justin put his arms around his daughter one last time. He had know clue why she was brought back to him just to be taken away again so suddenly. He stroked her long hair, wishing for just one more moent with his daughter.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Peter gave Karver a confused look. He wasn't sure he liked her waving his attempted aborion in his face, then taking her away as soon as they were about to get close. Still, he tried to keep his composure. He put a hand on Weydon. "It was nice meeting you."
~~~~~~~~~~~
Miley took a deep breath and looked at Karver. "You will let her visit won't you?" She exchanged glances with Peter, knowing they were sharing the same disappointment. She wondered why the bad things always happened to Peter or Justin. After a moment's silince, she said, "I need to get Maralyn."
Peter asked, "Want me to go with you?"
Miley shook her head. "Be right back."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Micah had finished his breakfast and asked Ian, "How about we go to Kahlynn's? Get to know her for a little bit?"
~~~~~~~~~~~
Miley drove over to Maralyn's house, trying to concentrate on the road. There was no way her brother would survive through this. He just wasn't the survivng type. She took out her key to Justin's house and barged in. Seeing Maralyn with Sarah, she tried to be calmer. "Karver is taking Weydon away from us! We gotta get ot the hospital and stop this!"

Karver looked a little anxious as Miley said they needed to get Maralyn, and then suddenly left them. She colud sense trouble coming, and thought she'd better get herself and Weydon out of there as soon as possible.
"It was nice meeting you, Justin," she said. "Hopefully we can visit sometime. But we do live very far away, and as I believe Weydon has told you, we have some very pressing business that will take precedence for awhile. But hopefully, someday." She smiled. "I do hope so."
And with that, she took Weydon's hand.
Weydon let go of Justin and said a teary goodbye.
Together, Karver and Weydon left the hospital, left the town, unsure if they would ever come back. But their hearts were filled with hope.
"Someday," Weydon whispered to herself, "I'll see him again."
(((OOC: Thanks for having me in the RP, everyone! It's been fun! Good luck to you all on the rest of the story)))

"Weydon!? Leaving!?" Gasped Maralyn "Why? Do you know?" Miley stumbled over the answer and Maralyn tried to calm her "Slow down. You can tell me on the way to the hospital" Marlayn quickly snatch up Sarah's car seat and blankets and went out to the van. While Miley buckled Sarah, Maralyn slipped into the drivers seat. "Sit up here, and tell me what has happened."

Climbing into the front seat, Miley buckled her seatbelt. "Karver is taking Weydon back to where they came from because something bad happened to someone she knows. They might be able to visit but you should have seen Weydon. She really didn't want to leave!"

After running a few errands, Micah and Ian rang the doorbell to Kahlynn's house.

Kahlynn opened her apartment door. She saw Micah and Ian waiting for her. “Hey guys, come on in I’ve just gotta find my jacket. Sorry I haven’t had much time to clean with work and school and all. It’s not bad though just a bit dusty.”

Micah gladly made his way into her house. He looked around, taking in his surroundings. "Wow...this place is awesome!"

Kahlynn smiled. “Well thanks.” It’s not much, a bit small, but I tried to decorate it a bit.” She pointed to all the drawings on the wall. “I made those myself.”

"You're drying," repeated Johnny. Her words were filled with the cracking noises of sniffling. He started to think about it, then pushed logic aside and opted for immediate action. "I have no idea what you're saying, Su--I'm coming! Where are you?" He made his way to the door and jumped into his car.

"Of course not!" Alec assured Frank. "You're the only one who has the right to give out the commands. The park is about three blocks down from Ian's house. I can see the park from my room. So I'll come out when I see you, okay? Good, good. It'll be nice and easy. Whatever you say, boss."
