《Destiny Rewritten》Chapter 76

"So, did you call Caitlin?" Thea asked Lyla as they stood outside the cell that now contained her father.
"Yeah, she's on her way here now. I didn't tell her the reason for it though. Figured it would be best coming from you. By the way, have you told her that you're sisters yet?" Lyla asked Thea, who shook her head.
"No, I'm not sure how bring it up." Thea said.
"Well, you're going to have to tell her now." Lyla said as Caitlin approached them.
"Tell me what?" Caitlin asked.
"Well for starters, this." Thea said as she pressed a button that revealed the cell's inmate to them.
"Wait, dad." Caitlin asked, shocked since she'd thought her dad was dead.
"Finally, both of my daughters are together." Icicle said with a sick grin.
"Wait, both of his daughters?" Caitlin asked.
"Yeah, it turns out that after your parents got divorced, my mom had an affair with him and I was the result of it." Thea said sheepishly.
"So, you're my sister." Caitlin said.
"Yeah, not exactly how I wanted to tell you, but I guess this is killing two birds with one stone." Thea said as Caitlin then turned to her father.
"How is he even alive?" Caitlin asked.
"He managed to use a cryogenic treatment to cure his ALS, but at the same time, it turned him into this. The Icicle. He also performed a modified version of the treatment on me when I was a baby to keep me from developing ALS and that's where I got my powers from." Thea explained.
"And yet this family is not truly complete yet, for we are still missing someone." Icicle said as he looked at Caitlin.

"Why are you looking at me?" Caitlin asked.
"Before I treated your sister, I treated you. After that, I made more refinements to the treatment before I performed it on Thea. That's why her powers don't have their own alter-ego." Icicle said.
"Wait, I have cold powers to?" Caitlin asked, shocked.
"I'm still trying to figure out why Thea's powers became active while your's didn't." Icicle said.
"I can answer that. My powers activated after I was kidnapped by the so called Savior. The rush of adrenaline activated my powers." Thea said.
"Even so, I'm not even sure I want powers." Caitlin said as she walked away and Thea followed her sister.
"Hey, you okay?" Thea asked.
"Yeah, sorry. It's just, these powers are probably what turned dad into what he is now. You didn't know him before, but he was a good man and a great father, my mother even admitted that the only reason they got divorced was because in the end they just wanted different things." Caitlin said.
"That's why I brought you in on this. I didn't just want you to know what happened to him." Thea said.
"You were hoping I might be able to find a way to cure him." Caitlin said.
"You're the most skilled biochemist I know. If anyone can figure it out, you can." Thea said.
"It would be easier if I had access to my father's research and equipment. If I can find out exactly he created this meta gene, I might be able to use that data to reverse the process." Caitlin said.
"Great, but I'm guessing that's not the only reason you left." Thea said.
"Yeah, finding out you apparently have powers inert inside you is a bit shocking. And I'm not even sure I want them." Caitlin said.

"Why not? You've seen the things I can do right?" Thea asked.
"Yes, but at the same time, you heard what dad said, the treatment he used on you was more refined and advanced then the one he did on me. What if I become like him?" Caitlin said.
"Look Caitlin, I know I make it look easy to control this power, but it isn't. Even though my powers don't come with a split personality, thank god for that by the way, I still feel the darkness that comes with them. I felt it when I had him at my mercy earlier. I could've killed him. But I didn't. We all choose who we want to be and what we do with our lives. The choice about whether or not you want to activate your powers is yours. But a bit of advice." Thea said.
"More advice?" Caitlin asked.
"Wait until after you figure out that cure, so that if you change your mind about the powers, you can reverse it." Thea said and Caitlin nodded as her sister left her alone to think.

Shaman
*** Let's get this clear now: the MC is a trans woman. This is not a gender-bender. It's set in a fantasy world but the exploration of identity and gender is reality-based. Not a joke, not a kinky turn-on. If this is a problem for you, please just act like an adult and look elsewhere for something to read. *** Rating breakdown, since that should be public info: 2 x 5*, 1 x 4.5*, 1 x 3*, no reasons offered. A human shaman and healer returns from several years with the mysterious shyani, accompanied by her shapeshifting puma best friend. A valued friend, from her previous identity as a male student physician, has acquired an old shyani book, and extremists will not tolerate its presence in human hands. But back in human lands, the question arises: which world does she belong in? Generations ago, human explorers found a continent inhabited by an utterly alien culture of shapeshifting weyres and the shyani, humanoids who prefer dusk and dawn. A truce of sorts was eventually reached: humans claimed the rich lowlands, and the shyani and weyres retain the highlands. Along the border, practicality often rules, but on either side, old grudges linger in some hearts. As a student physician, Corin tried to take his own life, unable to bear the countless tiny wounds inflicted over twenty-one years of lying to himself in order to be, or pretend to be, socially acceptable. At the last improbable instant, intervention came, in the form of a spirit fox, who led him away from the existence he’d known in the lowlands and into the highlands. There, a puma weyre rescued him, and a shyani shaman helped him find his true self and offered a rebirth, a life with no more lies, and an important role to fill. Now a shaman and healer in her own right, Vixen who was once Corin learns that the one human who mattered to her in her previous life, then a fellow University student, has come into possession of an old shyani book, and the more fanatical shyani and weyres will stop at nothing to reclaim it and punish Jared. Even though it means going back into the lowlands and facing Jared as a woman, she can’t bear to just look the other way. This should be a short visit, just long enough to see the book into the proper hands and make sure Jared will not be killed for having it, and then she can return to the shyani community that has accepted her as their shaman. And, of course, her feline best friend Dayr insists on coming with her. But Jared is now a Lord, with considerable wealth and power, and his response to her presence isn’t one she expected. After years living with the shyani, she sees everything around her from a new perspective, and that makes it difficult to keep to the plan of making as few waves as possible. As an honoured guest in a highborn house, with only Jared aware that she has ever been anyone else, Vixen finds herself questioning where she belongs: with Dayr and the shyani, who accept her gender without question but have to make allowances for her differences, or with humans, in the culture she grew up in even though her past would mean a major scandal? *** Trigger warning: there are scenes of Vixen's previous life, which include some difficult moments and culminate in an (obviously unsuccessful) attempt at suicide before she finds her true self and a better life. Please be careful! This is the ONLY reason for the "Traumatising Content" tag.*** Complete stand-alone novel, 96K words. Also available on Scribble Hub and as a free ebook.
