Invisible Stranger Part 1
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Tory had been busy preparing their home in NOLA for the new squire and also working up her lesson plans for the new school year which would start soon at the college. Her plan was to work until the birth of their newest smurf then take some time off before returning, much like she did with Bas. As she enters their living room she feels tired, heading for the sofa she sits, leans back staring at the ceiling as she rubs her growing belly, as a kick she smiles looking down.
''Hey buster not so hard on your mom huh'' she whispers to her unborn child.
Smiling she thinks back to when she and Ash talked about if they wanted to know the sex or not, of course her Acho didn't and she didn't really care if they had a boy or girl as long as their child was healthy ~and god knows what powers your going to have~ she closes her eyes leaning her head back as she continues to rub where their baby kicked soon dosing off.
~Dream~
She was in their home, when she feels a presence looking around with a smile she thinks its Ash, soon her smile fades when she sees a shadow standing there looking at her, fear like she has not known for some time rushes through her. Looking around she calls out for Acheron but he doesn't appear, a soothing voice comes to her.
''Please don't be afraid I....I wont hurt you'' she hears. ''I just wanted to see you one time like you were before.....''the voice falters as if fighting tears.
Tory stands there staring not sure what to say, some how, some way she feels as if she should know this voice, know the person who casts the shadow. As she moves towards it, the shadow seems to move away as if she is not meant to see who casts it.
''You say I don't need to be afraid and yet you don't show yourself....how can I not fear you, fear what you might do to me and my babies'' she says as tears start to fall, in her head she calls out to Ahs ~Acho where are you? I need you~.
''He wont come you know...I'm blocking him from knowing that I'm here and with.....''the voice tells her '' In time maybe I'll tell him myself, show him I'm here I have to eventually I need to...........'' the voice suddenly stops.
A bright flash lightens the room, Tory looks to where the shadow was standing seeing its no longer there, walking toward the spot she looks around, on the floor she sees something she knows is in her treasure box, her fathers watch is laying there where the shadow had stood, bending she starts to pick it up when she feels something brush against her........
Waking with a start she looks around, standing she hurries to her and Ash's room. Opening the drawer to her dresser she pulls out her treasure box, opening it she looks inside and sees her dads watch was still there, right were she had placed so long ago. Placing it back she hears the front door opening then Ash's voice call out to her, not caring if he sees her tears Tory hurries to his protective arms, knowing that she will tell him about her strange dream.

Invisible Stranger Part 2
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Tory sits at her desk working on the new lesson plans when she has the feeling of someone is watching . Turning in the chair she looks around not seeing a thing, sighing she put her pen down and rubs her head, ever since that dream she had she had this uneasy feeling, Ash tells her that its the stress of working and being pregnant but Tory feels its something else.
Pushing back from her desk she stand, rubs her back before heading off to see what Bas is up to, their home is to quiet adding to the tension she already feels. As she enters the living room she sees Bas was asleep on Simi. With a smile she shakes her head then makes her way to the kitchen, thinking something cool to drink would help with this edgy feeling she has.
As she is about to enter the kitchen she catches a shadow standing at the glass door, her heart stops for a moment she knows she would beable to defend herself and her children if need be, a sharp kick reminds her of the little smurf she is carrying, placing her hand over the spot looking down she speaks in a soft voice ~I know baby your mom is seeing things and its upsetting you isn't it~ looking up the shadow is gone.
"Why are you so scared of me don't you know I would never hurt you?" comes a soft errie voice out of no where.
''Hello.....whose there? You say you wont hurt me but how do I know that who are you?" Tory looks around franticlly for where the voice came from not seeing anything.
When all she hears is silence she sighs ~great Tory your hearing things and having a converstation with nothing but air~ she mumbles as she reaches for the juice in the fridge.
"You know me, you just dont know the me as I am now'' comes the voice again sounding sadder.
The glass falls from her hands as she sees the shadow once more, standing there with its hand pressed against it, she could tell it was male the voice alone gave that away. She tries to move closer but her feet feel like they have been glued to the floor, she tries to make out more of the features but cant, the darkness outsdie preventing even that, n her mind she thinks of who it could be. Had Stryker decided to play his games again? Was it Ash's twin Styxx? Who was it that was standing there in front of her.
''Baby I'm home.'' Ash's voice sounds out from the living room.
Tory turns her head for a moment before looking back only to find the shadow gone. Backing up she bumps into Ash, crying she buries her head into his chest, she knows the moment Ash picks up something is wrong, his soft words asking her to talk to him, but Tory inds it hard to tell him what she seen, part afraid it would send Ash off in anger to talke to his two problem brothers and the other part that he may think her crazy. Telling him she was just tired and hormones out of wack she sighs when he drops the subject, telling her he knows what she needs as he heads to the freezer pulling out a container of Chunky Monkey Tory has to smile and laugh as he starts to feed her the ice cream, all thoughts of the shadow soon leave her mind as she enjoys her evening with her Acho.

The Invisible Stranger Part 3
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
(Soteria Athena Parthenopaous)
Sitting on the sofa with Ash and Bas as Simi lays on the floor she feels content that her little family was at home together. As she leans her head on Ash's shoulder they both laugh as Bas starts to whisper to his make believe friend.
(Acheron Apostolos Parthenopaeus )
My arm around Tory I look over her to where Bas is sitting on the sofa, talking to someone. But its not one of us. He starts laughing at something but no ones said a thing. I sit very quiet just watching this play out.
(Xiamara Simi Parthenopaeus)
Looks backs at baby bros and rolls hers eyes. " Baby Bro why you plays so muches with him? He not reals!" Turns backs to the televisions munchings on her BBQ covereds cheeses doodles. Starts to thinks about Diamoniques specials that is ons laters and wonders wheres she lefts that black cards that Daddy Akri gaves her. Then she remembereds the ones thatZayden s gaves her last nights. She knews where they weres.
(Sebastos Eudorus Parthenopaeus)
Giggling away to myself, I was sat between mommy and my bestest friend. I heard sissy Simi say that he was not real but he was! We had so much fun pulling pranks and going on lots of adventures, and he was always keeping me company. Looking to mommy and papa, I tug on mommy's arm and looked up at her with my big eyes. '' Mommy...me and my fwiend go pway? We wants to go daimon hunting wike daddy...''
(Soteria Athena Parthenopaous)
Looking down at Bas then up at Ash she smiles ''Baby you have to ask daddy if you can go daimon hunting with him.'' Moving so she could whisper in Ash's ear. ''He seems to be talking a lot to his imaginary friend.'' Looking at Bas she smiles. '' You and your friend can go play sweetie just stay where mommy and daddy can see you.'' ~ And no more disappearing baby.~ She mumbles under her breath still trying to get his disappearing at the park out of her mind.
(Xiamara Simi Parthenopaeus )
Gets up and dances overs to Bas and his pretends friends. She acts like the Simi is lookings for the imaginaries friends.Acting sillies as she looks, she suceeds in gettings Bas laughings. Laughings herselves she looks at her baby bro and asks "If he reals whats his names? Whats he look likes? Does he like BBQ?" She hads a bunches of other questions but she just tilted her heads and waits for baby bros to answers her first three questions.
(Sebastos Eudorus Parthenopaeus)
Hearing sissy Simi say my friend was not real, I pouted at her and stuck my tongue out in disagreement before I heard what mommy said. I smiled at her, with chocolate all around my little chops. ''Me pwomise mommy, we be good and make no messies..''. Wiggling down off the couch I hold my pretend friends hand and we walk over to the grand table, playing with my Simi. '' He calls Ron and he is biiiiig and stwong like daddy......and he wuffs BBQ THIIIIS MUCH!!!'' ~holds my hands out wide~
(Acheron Apostolos Parthenopaeus)
Grins at Bas and his descriptions. '' Well you tell your friend Ron, that you have to stay right where we can see you and no going off to fight the Daimons ok little buddy? By the way.... Bas? Can you describe Ron for me? And ask him where he comes from?'' unwrapping my arm from around Tory, I sit up leaning forward with my elbows on my knees my hands clasped and wait for Bas's answer, all the while sending out sensors. Nothing comes back at me.
(Soteria Athena Parthenopaous)
She watches as Bas and his friend Ron moves to where Simi is sitting, she has to giggle when she hears abut how much Ron loves BBQ sauce. ''Well we will have to make sure there is plenty for all three of you then sweetie.'' When she feels Ash remove his arm from around her and sit forward she takes notice of his questions and how he was acting she knows that if there was anything not only Ash but Simi would protect Bas. Placing her hand on his back she whispers to Ash. ''You don't think your mom sent someone to watch over him without saying something do you?''
(Xiamara Simi Parthenopaeus)
"His names is Ron? Reallys?" She looks overs at Akra Tori and smiles. "Thankies cuz the Simi only likes to shares with baby bros, not someones who will eats ALL my BBQ!" She quickly turned to Bas and gives hims the riots acts to tell his friends. "Tell Rons me is sorry but if he eats that muches he needs to stays outs of mine. Momma Tori will gets him somes of his own." Scratching her heads she has anothers thoughts. " I bet he eats BBQ me can't see either doesn'ts he?
(Sebastos Eudorus Parthenopaeus)
Smiles sweetly as I was holding my friend's hand. I didn't understand why no one else could see him, he was standing right with me and looked a lot like daddy. Hearing daddy asking what my friend looks like, I turned my head to my friend and smiled back at Daddy. ''He wook like you papa and has mommy's eyes! He weally cool!'' giggles and looks to my sister ''He say it okay he got some! Ron likes it wots and wots, and wikes it on EVERYTHING!!!!''
(Acheron Apostolos Parthenopaeus)
At the mention of my matera and Bas I look over at Tory, my lips tight, and shake my head, all the while watching Bas interact with his invisible friend closely. " I kinda doubt it, but I'll ask her to make sure. Its probably just an invisible friend. Nothing to worry about. I'm not picking up any threats and Simi doesn't seem to be either. Just keep an eye on him and let me know if you notice anything more unusual." Leaning back I turn and lightly kiss Tory's cheek, then pick up my guitar and start quietly working out a song, all the while keeping an eye on Bas and whats playing out.
(Soteria Athena Parthenopaous)
Watching as Bas seems to hold someones hand she places her hand on Ash's arm, feeling how tense he was. ''Thats good sweet but still maybe we should get some more'' she tells Bas as Ash sits back not looking happy nor that upset. At his words she smiles sitting back beside him and listens as he starts to play his guitar. Her eyes still on Bas watching as he plays with his friend. Tory knows Ash and Simi aren't picking up on anything but for some reason she wonders if this imaginary friend is some how the same as her two shadow visits from someone who claimed not to want to hurt their family, a shiver runs through her at the thought of the dream and then seeing the shadow in the glass door, she had not told Ash about the last visit but knows he knew something was wrong, as Ash starts to sing softly she tries to listen to his voice, but her mind was still on whats going on around them and if they were related why, why the visits and become a friend to a little boy.

Time....Time was all that mattered now, he would travel back in time to before he was born and try to make someone listen to his plea. Surly someone would hear the story he needs to tell.....story that is more a warning needing to be told to his father Acheron, his matera Soteria yet if they wouldn't listen maybe he would be able to see if his uncles or aunts would listen.....heed the warning of what will happen in the future.
Theron knows to tamper with fate would bring the wrath of his aunts down on him, yet the fate in this time are no more, the Greek Parthenon being destroyed by his grandmother Apollymi. Like here there was ruble. Everywhere....everything was reduced down to nothing, its why he needs to go back in time back before events leading up to her relese happens.
After all he had been back there twice to see his matera Tory and one other,his older brother Bas, he thinks of him as a friend called Ron. But this time when he goes back he will see the others who are gone, his family and friends all those he cherished. Thinking of who he will see first as his eyes stray to the statues of his father, a small grin comes to him as he thinks of his family and freinds.
Time.....Time was all he had left to fix his world from what it is now.

~The Invisible Stranger Part 5~
~Kateteros in the future~
Theron paces the old throne room at Kateteros,the home that was now just rubble. He had tried several times to speak with his matera but only ended up frightening her. Just remembering the fear he seen in her face bring tears to him, only his brother Bas seemed to accept him ~smiles at the thought~ even though to him he was just a friend and invisible to others. Sitting on the step he tries to think of who else he could go to, he doesn't dare go to his father yet or his aunts the Fates knowing full well the hell he will catch for tampering with what will be. Yet how could he leave things as they are now.
As he leans back on his elbow a thought comes to him,maybe instead of his matera and brother this time he goes to someone else, someone who perhaps will listen. Running the names through his head knowing most would become angry or fearful of what he is doing one name comes to his mind. The only one who perhaps would listen and not run to Fates, the only one who may be angered of his visit his was his father,yet Acheron didn't fear the fates and maybe just maybe he would listen, thinking about going back to his home he shrugs after all he had already been there once before though briefly.
Standing he moves to the secret room, the room that held the sphere he found, both seeming to have been hidden from all but by who and why Theron doesn't know, all he knows is that the sphere helps him travel back in time. And he was about to use it again and travel back to the past as he enters the room he thinks of who he should see, knowing the Fates were not a great idea ~Yeah all three would be pissed your tampering with something like this~ as the faces flash past he starts to feel the pain of their loss even more.
Moving to stand before the sphere he prepares to travel back in time, he wont go like before to his home, no this time......this time he will go to those who were his family....his friends. Placing his hands on the sphere like he had before, he places the one person whose face comes to focus in his mind, Theron knows that in time he will be speaking to his dad but right now......right now he wants to visit the one place that was like a second home to him....... As he places his hands on the sphere he pictures where he wants to be.

Invisible Stranger Part 6
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
He arrived in NO. The street was familar, as he starts to walk towards the place he had been thinking of he was thinking of the confortation he would soon have wiht his father, it was coming and he knew his dad would be pissed about the time travel but more then that knowing dear dad he wouldn't want to hear about the events that happened to take his family from Theron, it was important for Acheron to listen to him, more now then ever since he wasn't sure how many more jumps to the past he would be able to make considering his fathers old friend Savatar had shown up on Kateteros while he was thinking of his plans to travel to the past. He knew once the older immortal found out what he was doing all hell would break loose on him. At least he could try and get his father to listen to him when tells him of the events in the future.
As walks down the familiar streets, musice comes to him, looking up he sees an all to familar sign, the one place that was almost a second home to him in his time, it was like it said Sanctuary, Theron remembers the numerous times he came the place when he knew his parents found out he was either with his uncle or he used his powers, so many times like those who stayed there when the warning song came he high tailed it out the back door, sometimes he was able to avoid his dad and then there were those times he wasn't able to.
He stops at the entrance and grins, loving the little trick he has of going invisible he does so before moving closer to the home of the Howlers. Stoping he stares at Dev with a grin, so many times he stopped Theron in his time carding him. Things were the same he to with the bear standing vigil at the door and he knew he would be carded and his id showing the future he would have to explain something that the bear wouldn't believe, so he uses the one power that always drove his parents nuts, Theron goes invisible for the scouting of Sanctuary, would be easier then trying to pull one on the bear, he remembers how grummpy Dev can get, plus he held respect for the Pelteirs, the bears,their family and friends would always be one of his most foundest memories. Moving past the bear he stops staring at the face he respected and would no longer see in his time, Dev's head looks up, then around as if he could sense something was not right or that someone was there, watching him. Theron grins as he walks past the bouncer heading straight to the eatng area.
As he enters the eating area he smiles as the memories that come rushing at him, so many times he shared a meal with his friends or even the rare occasion with his uncle Styxx or even a DH, as he moves through the tables he feels that same pang in his heart. Theron wasn't prepared for the pain these trips to the past would bring, more so here at Sanctuary, this was the last place he seen his family, this was that final battle feild where he lost everyone dear to him.
Taking a seat at a table he sits back and watches the bears and their clientel as they enter act with eachother, a small grin comes across his face as sees a were at one of the tables giving a waitress a hard time as the kitchen door swings open he catches the sight of more Peltiers as they come from the main house to start their shifts.
He pulls the menu that had been laying on a near by table ~grins~ <Some things never change> he mumbles seening their menue was the same as in his time, oh yeah of course a were could get a steak the way they liked, sitting back he drinks in the sight, how he misses this place, his friends and his family. Theron just hopes his dad will listen to what he has to tell him, so that everything can change be like it was.....like now.
Entering the pool area he leans against the wall, watching one table takes his intrest above all the others, a couple were playing and the woman was winning much to her dates surprise, how many times did he and his cousins or friends find themselves raching the balls and playing a few rounds, the ache that started earlier was getting worse by the minute, why did it have to hurt so much or better yet why did they all have to go and leave him alone with his grandmother.
Hearing Howlers start warming up he moves to where the band was gearing up, he remembers the times his dad would play with the band, his mom watching from her favorite place. Dad would always play the song ''Savin Me'' even when they were at home he played that song, looking around he breaths a sigh of relief as he doesn't see his dad Acheron, turning he looks at the bad really ready to hear their music, something in his time he hadn't heard in some time.

That feeling of being pulled back to his time comes over him again, he knows its time, with one last look he heads for the exit but something, he doesn't know what comes over him. That mischious feeling from his time really, he laughs as he looks at the jutbox before walking over to it, Theron never used his powers much but this time he would pressing play the warning for Acheron comes out turning he has to laugh as everyone scrambles, a little tweaking and the song would play for a while until Dev,Remi or one of the Peltiers unplugged the thing. Walking out the door he feels the pull back to his time and soon finds himself in the old throne room of Kateteros

~~The Invisible Stranger Part 7~~
Tory paced around the house, the thoughts of so many things out of the ordinary that had been happening lately playing thru her head. First the shadowy stranger that appeared in her dream, then at the glassdoor. Bas’s imaginary friend that no one else seem to feel or hear. Was it just a childs innocent imaginary friend? Then who or what was behind the shadows that spoke to her. Or was she the only one that heard the voices? Was she going crazy? She just couldn’t shake the feeling that something was very wrong and she also knew the time was up to come clean and talk to Ash about what had been happening. As she came to their bedroom she sat on the bed, trying to figure out how to break the news to Acheron about the stranger who seems to have invaded their lives. Its wasn’t like they can see whatever it was, or rather its wasn’t like Ash, Simi or she could see it,.Bas saw whatever it was as clear as day it seemed, and that worried her even more, because if Ash and Simi couldn’t sense this presence then who or what was it and what did it want? And why could Bas sense it? .
The front door opened and closed, then footsteps walked slowly down the hall, pausing briefly at the nursery as always. She had finally convinced Ash to let Bas have his own room, and she couldn't help but smile as through the baby monitor she heard Ash's soft voice speaking Atlantean to Bas before he left and headed on to their bedroom where she waited.
Nervously chewing on her bottom lip she watched as the doorknob turned and... ~Times up Tory! Its time to break the news to Ash~ , she thought to herself as the door slowly opened and Ash stood in the doorway, his smile fading as he saw the look on her face. "Hey Baby I really need to talk to you about something,” she said.”You know Bas’s little invisible friend? Well it may be more then just a toddlers make believe friend." She blurted out before he could interrupt her then waited to see his reaction. She watched as he crossed his arms over his chest ,concern in his swirling eyes as he stared at her while waiting to see if there was more.
With as little emotion as he could, his accent thick as the only giveaway of how on edge this all made him, he simply said, " Yeah, I know." And he waited, his eyes seeming to swirl even faster.
She gathered her courage and continued, knowing he was as concerned as she was about something that neither one of them had answers too yet. “ Ash, there is something that really scares me about this whole thing, Bas and this imaginary friend, the dream I had and., I'm afraid for Bas, and for this little man”, as she placed her hand gently on her stomach.” I'm afraid that something will happen and there is nothing I can do to shake that feeling”
The tic in his jaw grew. He wasn't sure if he would break a tooth he was grinding so hard. Conflicting emotions ran thru him. Walking over to the bed he sat next to her. “I do not want to be blindsided Sota. So tell me now if there's anything else.” "Laying back on the bed he pulled Tory down next to him, holding her in his arms, waiting to hear what else might be going on.*
Laying there beside Ash, his arms a safe heaven, " Yeah there is something Acho." she whispered as she felt his arms start to tighten around her. “I.....I had a visit from a shadow at the back glass door" she laid her hand on his, gathering the strength he gave her to continue, but she knew Acheron was again clenching his jaw " This time baby it wasn't a dream......it was real, he kept saying not to be afraid. It just seems so strange with this strange shadow figure visiting and Bas's imaginary friend, all at the same time. It’s starting to worry and scare me.'' His arms tightened around her and she waited, knowing that Ash would get to the bottom of all the strangeness that has been going on.
Letting go of Tory he sat up straight, a tingle running up his spine. Rubbing his hands over his face, he thought for a second of all that Tory was telling him, and though back over everything she told him. Sending out feelers, opening his mind, nothing came back. That wasn’t good. It could only mean all this had to be coming from something close to his family, or going to affect someone close to him. Standing up he turned to Tory, who also sat up and was looking at him with concern all over her face. " Its ok, baby.. I'm not going smurf on you.. but I want you to get what you need together now, and get Bas ready. I'll get Simi. I"m moving you all to Katateros right now." And before she had a chance to say another word, he went to go grab his backpack and called for Simi. " Simi...on me now!"
