Anne stared at him. Her eyes searching his desperately. At first she hated the sound of it. And then she thought about the girls. Those beautiful, beautiful girls. "I want to forget too." She whispered shaking her head. "I love those girls, I love them. I don't want to remember them either. I don't want to if you don't want too. Do you think she will? Will she reconstruct our minds so we can just...live together?"

Eric shrugged his shoulder softly, "It's Sam, she won't be cruel." A soft smile tugged at his lips before he turned to Samantha and the other Eric, "Samantha, I need a favor. The last favor I'll ever as of you. Erase our minds. Make us forget this whole [dang] war. Please, it's all I'll ever ask of you. Just... Let us live our lives happily together, and we'll never bother you, or your family. I swear."

Jessie watched in pained silence as the other Eric and Anne asked Samantha to wipe their minds. Pain filled her and she couldn't help herself as she stepped toward Anne. Tears filled her eyes as she pressed a soft palm to Anne's shoulder. When the girl turned to look at her, Jessie pulled the girl in to a hug. "I'm sorry Anne," she whispered in a choked voice, "I really am. I'm sorry for being such a [female dog]. I just wanted you to know, I'm glad you were in Eric's life, and I'm glad you're my sister in law. I wish I could have done this sooner."

Anne felt sadness flood over her and she couldn't help but start crying. She'd never remember Jessie, she'll never see her again. Ever. "Thank you." She whispered to the girl. She had wanted Jessie's acceptance more than anything, and now she had it. This was going to be harder than she thought. When the girls pulled away, she made eye contact with Samantha's Eric. "Thank you. I know you're..." She swallowed. "Indifferent to me now. But you're still him. And I love you. I don't know what my life would be if you hadn't fallen in love with me. And...it kills me I won't remember the time that was shared between us. That I won't remember... I won't remember when we fell in love..." Anne clamped a hand over her mouth. She knew it would be easier when she forgot, but this almost felt like dying.

Anne's Eric felt his heart crush in his chest as Anne spoke. The other Eric looked on with a sympathetic gaze, but nothing that indicated that he felt anything akin to love for her. "Thank you," the other Eric spoke, "For keeping me alive. I know you're the one that saved me Anne, and I hope... I hope that your next life with bring you all the happiness you deserve."
Anne's Eric gently slipped his hand in to Anne's and pulled her back to him, "I'm ready whenever you are sugar." He looked down in to her eyes and whispered, "Come what may, I will love you, until my dying day. I promise."

Samantha found this harder and harder to watch. Her heart broke for the poor girl, this had to be so hard, on both of them. And it was so hard having to be the one to do this, but she knew it's what they wanted and needed. It was just hard to process Eric fell in love again. "I'll do it." She breathed out, her throat tight. "Give me your hands when you're ready. Eric, do you want a different name?" Samantha asked. If they were rewriting themselves, then he would probably need a different name.
"Wait!" Christian said and moved forward, his arms wrapping around Anne tightly. He didn't want this. He knew she did, but he didn't want this. She would exist in his life but he wouldn't in her life. "I love you, Annie."
Anne cried against him. "I love you too." She whispered, her heart pulling in her chest as she held onto him.

Jessie watched as Christian and Anne held on to each other desperately. She couldn't imagine how horrifying this would be for her husband. To lose his sister? Actually... Jessie did know, and it brought tears to her eyes. Losing Samantha had torn her in two. She couldn't watch as that happened to Christian. "Sam," She spoke softly as she approached her sister, "Can you keep Christian in her memories? Please? I can imagine losing you again, and I don't want that for Christian. Can you keep him there?"

Goldheart · ThunderClan Warrior

Samantha nodded as she watched the scene unfold before her. "Yes." She whispered. "I can do that. I'll keep the two of you and your kids in their memories. You'll have to watch the kids though, if any word of me or Eric get out... Things will get too overwhelming for them." Her sister nodded and Samantha stepped forward, explaining Jessie's plan to the others, which caused Christian to hug both Samantha and his wife happily. So Samantha then held out her hands. "Whenever you two are ready, join hands and hold onto mine." After a few moments, they did just that. Samantha went to work, cycling through their minds and recreating their history, wiping everything that needed to be wiped and filling them with new memories. It was so hard seeing what Eric went through, but seeing it made her respect Anne in a way she couldn't explain. She kept her husband alive. And for that she will forever remember her. She made their lives simple yet intricate and beautiful. They grew up together, best friends. And then, by accident, fell in love only a year ago. Had plans of the future, plans for careers and a home and a family. Samantha was even proud of her work. It had taken awhile, but it worked. She then placed in their minds that everything was okay, and Christian and Jessie was going to take them to their home where they've just moved in together and needed to get settled in. She made it the first place she thought of, the lake house. Her father wouldn't mind, she knew it. She put a blinder on them as well, so that they wouldn't see her Eric. It would be like he wasn't even there. Samantha let go of their hands, and they both looked like a huge weight had been lifted off of them. Samantha smiled, and she let Christian know what he needed to do. The boy nodded, and they were gone.
Samantha turned to Eric. "Now how about our girls?" She asked with tears in her eyes.

Eric watched as his counterpart walked away with Anne. There was a blissful happiness the other Eric had that, the boy with the sixteen on his wrist was jealous of. He envied how the other boy wouldn't remember all the pain, ache and horrible hurt that this Eric had to endure. When Samantha spoke, he turned to look at her. For a moment, he ignored her words and just studied her face. He had never thought he would see her again, not after the interrogation room. Now that she was here, he was in awe that he had her back. Eric didn't reply as he stepped forward and pulled Samantha in to an embrace as well as crashing his lips against hers, desperately needing to know that this was all real. He didn't care that the rest of the rebellion was standing around him, he didn't care that they saw.
"What... What have you done?" A desperately broken voice called in pain. Eric managed to pull away from Samantha long enough to see Lewis standing from where Eric had abandoned him. Eric knitted his brows at the pathetic creature Lewis had become. "Just kill me now, or I swear, I will kill you Eric," the man snarled at them, but Eric wasn't exactly sure he'd carry through with his threats.
"Lewis, it's over," Eric spoke, "Just stop. You lost, and I've got my wife back. You can have yours." He pointed toward where Gwen's body was at. The girl having already passed away by now, "She's right there."
Lewis' eyes widened, and his mouth slackened. Without a word, the man turned and bolted from them, to where, Eric didn't know.
With a sigh, he turned back to Samantha and whispered, "Let's go home."

The girls were still across the sea, and the flight there, Samantha didn't leave her husbands arms. Everything felt like a bad dream. It almost felt like the time she died, like only a day or two had passed. But looking back, she could see and feel everything Grace did. Everything with Andrew, all of her thoughts and feelings, everything. She was a person using Samantha's body, and the girl hadn't even known her life was fabricated. Samantha tried to push those thoughts out of her head though, and that's when she remembered the extent of what the healing had done. It was like...it was like she was finally all put together. Her mind fixed and whole again. It made her unimaginably happy. Samantha sat up and stared at Eric. She took his hand and pressed it to her heart, and she did the same with hers. She stared into his eyes and brought forth her powers, recreating her end of the thread. She wanted to be entirely hole before she saw her girls again.
