Family Reunion (open to Atlanteans)
Arthur walked through the ruins of Poseidonis. The jewel of Atlantis lay mostly in ruins and was now floating on the surface of the ocean. Her sister city of Tritonis was in ruins on the ocean floor. Arthur's kingdom was in ruins, but the people were alive. They would rebuild and Atlantis would flourish again. Arthur would spend the rest of his life making sure of that.

He looked around at the ruins of the city and the people moving about. Arthur already had the council on his back for a meeting, but he told them it could wait. He had to make sure his people were provided for first. A good majority of the newly resurrected citizens had been evacuated to Cerdia, but even Cerdia couldn't hold all of the citizens of Poseidonis. Personnel essential to rebuilding were here now and ready to get started.

Arthur looked over at Mera and smiled. No matter what happened they'd get through it together. His gaze wandered and fell on Ash. Arthur had heard she had assumed the throne and with Garth's help led the surviving people of Atlantis to safety in a remote area away from the two ruined cities. When word that the dead had been restored to life, Garth and Ash led the people back to Poseidonis and they had just arrived.

Mera. Garth. Dolphin. Cerdian. Ash. Just one person was missing from his family. Cait. Thoughts of his daughter added some weight to his shoulders. He had to find her and see if she had been brought back. He couldn't imagine having to go through the rest of his life without her in it.

No it won't.

He's calmer now, and needs to blow off some steam and energy. His eyes go blank, and telekinesis and violet magical light flare out from him. Time bends to let him to more things seemingly at once.

Repairs are transmuted into place, dust is transformed into the raw materials to patch things up, a gust of wind sweeps the rest out the door. Things crawl, click and slam back together, everything in its place, until the house looks precisely the way it did in Cait's fondest memories of it.

And you are mine.

	She kissed him again. "Showoff. At least let me make dinner. Now that I'm back here, I'm in the mood for some clam chowder. My grandfather's recipe." It would just take a quick trip to the small market in town and digging up a few clams. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	I just wanted to make you happy, love. Of course though... you're a much better cook than I am... and that sounds amazing. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"You do. I've never been happier than when I with you. I'm going to have to go into town to pick up a few things for dinner. Want to come with me or do you want to explore a bit? I know Grandfather has a few old books in there if you want to check them out." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Old books? She definitely has his attention. You sure you'll be ok on your own for a bit? (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Yes, I'll be fine. I lived here for four years before Grandfather passed away. I know almost everyone in town." The town was just a few steps up from a village and the population was around three thousand people. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Ok, love. I think I've had my fill of 'new' for a bit. I need to relax. I think I'm going to do some reading, but the link will be there if you need a teleport or anything, ok? (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"It's not far and I'm going to see if the old truck still runs." Cait's Grandfather had an old pickup truck that he had used to go into town. He taught Cait to drive it before his health started to decline. Toward the end of his days Cait had driven it by herself into town for supplies. Knowing how to drive would come back to her once she climbed in. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	If it doesn't, I'll fix it back better than new. Just let me know. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	young_swimmer 2011-04-03 07:23 pm UTC (link)
	"I will," she said. Though she knew she would just walk if the truck didn't start. It was only a mile and a half into town. Cait had walked it many times. "I'll be back soon. Promise." (Reply to this)(Parent)
