**********************************************

Uncertainty clouds me as I feel the end of the road
coming nearer with each step I take down this foggy,
yet well-lit path. Reaching the clearing, I am
astounded at the sight of the same little boy that
led me to my sister's diary. I follow him further
down the path and I am gifted with the ghostly
apparitions with faces of innocence. I recognize
Amber Lynn LaPierre along with so many other children
who have been saved from life's cruel fates that
awaited them.

Someone is running my direction and I realize that
it's Samantha. She hugs me tightly before pulling
away, smiling and cradling my face in both her hands.
She pushes back into my embrace and I stroke her
hair, and smile at the walk-ins who have surrounded
us. Suddenly everyone has disappeared, including
Samantha, and a slight mist forms in my eyes.

I silently take in the scenery around me and stare up
at the sky. One star twinkles brightly for a brief
second and fades away again. That star is Samantha
and it's her way of telling me that she's now in the
past. She's also telling me it's time to liberate
myself from the guilt which I have suffered since the
day she was taken from my life. She has shown me in
that short moment that it is time to walk back down
that path to my future.

Samantha has finally granted me something I've needed
for so long. A future with Scully with my past guilt
forgotten. However, I will always remember Samantha
and how she was stolen from my life as an one of the
innocent faces that now walk in starlight. Only now,
Scully will be by my side to help me remember, and
that's as it should be.

-The End-
