Must find some level of comfort in this place. This place has all the same trinkets, and the same veiled truth that all other 'Seattles' have had. But this is different. Despite all the similarities, the one big thing was gone. And for how long was she gone? No one knew...not even father who claims responsibility for her.
Though, I would never tell it to his face but I wouldn't trust dad with any of my loved ones unless I had no other choice. It felt like letting Lex Luthor look after Lois. This man has failed on so many occasions. Where was he when mom died? Where was he while Alexis was growing up? Making brothers and sisters for me...what a lecherous old man. He'd better keep her safe, or nothing...even our shared blood...will save him.
But that doesn't change the fact that they're both gone. I must find something to latch onto in this foreign homestead. There's Rein...I could solve the riddle of what ails her...but that wont last for long. One of two things will happen: I will figure it out and still be without purpose, or she will die and I will have been a failure at my first act in this world.
I can fall into the world of my work...but that is a new threat...sleep. I would fall asleep if I spent too much time at work and not with others of my kind. My kind...Lorian...my kin. The last words that lecherous old man tells me is that I have a brother. That would make Alexis his deceased younger sister. I wonder if he even cares to know what she was like. No point..it is all too circular.
I am a drone now. I live for my purpose, and that purpose is to help others live their lives. My life is theirs but theirs is not mine. Without Avery to guide my soul...who knows to what extremes I will go. It was Avery that helped me maintain a sense of morality while giving up that part of me that separated me from the 'bad' guys.
To fall from grace...what an epic ending to my DREAM. Just like Captain America after the war...forgotten until he was thawed back out to fight again. That may be my fate...to hibernate between threats...to be forgotten until a new day is needed.
Start small...start easy. The swing will come back. She will come back...
