BELLA'S POV:
I was walking down the stairs when i saw Alice standing by my car. Ceryena looked at her and then to me but did not say a word. I turned around but she called me to wait. She sounded so desperate that i thought about it and then turned around. What do you want i snapped, she begged me to talk with her so i angrily said, fine, what do you have to say. She looked confused and i laughed, was she faking it or was she actually confused. I asked her to get in the car and she obliged. Ceryena shot me a puzzled look but i shook my head and she got in the car quietly. As we drove, there was a silence and it wasn't until we were drawing up to the house that she let out a little gasp. We got out and i led her to the sitting room. I asked her to wait and then i went up to Ceryena's room. She sighed grumpily and asked me who Alice was. Well, she's and old friend of mine and i haven't seen her in a while. Ok, i need you to be grown up about this but she's umm, well, she's the sister of your dad....Ceryena let out a gasp and tried to zoom downstairs but i stopped her, i needed to talk to Alice first. I promised that i would let her talk later but i needed to talk first.
I walked downstairs and saw Alice was standing up looking pale, she's Edward's daughter!? I winced at the sound of his name and told her to calm down. When she had stopped blabbering i sat down and asked her why she left me. She looked confused and said, but Bella you asked us to leave. I felt my blood boil. What!!! I snarled, why would i say that, well, that's what Edward told us. I laughed and said, are you crazy, he left me in the middle of the forest, oh, and i suppose he failed to mention i was pregnant! I nearly died! She looked even more pale than usual and said in a whisper, what?!?! I told her the whole story and when i had finished, she looked at me and then hugged me for so long and so hard that i thought my body was going to break.

Alice! She realised what she was doing and released me. Well, im pleased to see you too i said slightly flustered. She laughed, her tinkly laugh and i gave an involuntary shiver. This was the laugh i had fallen in love with, and this was the person i had fallen in love with. Then, she asked me how i had survived and if that girl i was with was my daughter. I told her how i had found their family and how they had saved me but we had departed ways after around 50 years of living with them. Then i told her all about Ceryena. When we had finished talking i gave her a hug and she left. An angry Ceryena rushed to my side when she heard the engines go and shouted at me. I thought i could speak to her she said. Sorry i forgot i said and she calmed down. We talked well into the night and then we went into our bedrooms. I dug out my folder and found that photo again. I smiled and hugged it to my chest, my love for Alice incredibly strong. I lay on my bed and thought of her, her smile, her laugh......

the Mediator
Award-winning rock musician Kris Maya had just held a ground-breaking concert, with an arena packed with his most die-hard fans. His songs that contemplated the human condition: desires, love, pain, loss, fantasy and reality, and his philosophy towards life have garnered a great number of people to follow his every move and as he strummed the last chord that signaled the end of his song, he stumbled in pain and collapsed. With a smile, he closed his eyes on the curtains of his final concert in this life. As the applause of his show turned to become murmurs of worry and disbelief, he was happy and excited. Still, he felt that he was ready and he was anticipating his return to the world where all his past mistakes left a grueling and bloody mark on its history. This world that he filled with his music had taught him many lessons. In Earth, the power of music served as his gateway to learning. When he returns to his former world, his overwhelming power of magic will teach others the same lessons; the bloodshed being the only difference. It was now time to pay it forward.

With no way around the restriction, he ventures into a new world—a VRMMO game based in space—called Advance Online. There he must help his companion AI, Hal Pal, overcome an identity crisis, race to the center of the universe to bring back his true love, and figure out where he stands on the scariest implication of all; AIs are bringing the dead to life. Crash: Grant’s prior adventures tie together and he finds himself back in Continue Online, as Hermes—in jail. He's forced to experience life as a digital convict and earn redemption points to gain his freedom. Each in-game death pushes his goal of helping his friends out of reach.

Together: The game is no longer about adventures in a new world or exploring fantasy lands. Grant’s digital wife faces deletion, along with everyone else he cares for. He, and those who know this is more than a game event, search for clues to salvation left behind by the game's creators. Even if he finds them all, the Voices have one last task for their messenger. A sacrifice.
