The Pendragon Legacy
A Chapter Closes
Now I am sorry to disappoint
but this will be the last chapter for this generation. With so many kids, if I don’t get started on
the next soon they will be elders!! So,
at the end of this chapter I will list the prospective heirs. You decide who will take the Pendragons into
generation 2!
Kami wrapped up warm
and headed out to her beloved garden.
As she passed through
the kitchen she saw Jonas playing basketball.
He was supposed to be at school.
Kami decided to carry on with the gardening and see if he would head off
of his own accord.
Lost in her garden
Kami forgot about Jonas skipping school and headed back in for a relaxing
bath. As she entered the study Jonas was
at the computer.
Kami: Jonas! Why are you not at school!
Jonas: Uh, teacher training day.
Kami: So just your teacher is it? Your brother seems to have managed to attend.
Jonas: Well, I…
Kami: Don’t even try lying to me
again. You disappoint me Jonas, I
thought you were better than that.
Jonas: Sorry mum.
Kami: Now go take a time
out. If I catch you even breathing wrong
today you will be grounded! Got it!
Jonas: Yes mum.
Jonas: Stupid school. Stupid rules.
Can’t wait till I’m an adult.
Kami: I can hear you!
Jonas: *grumbles*
Once he had finished
his time out, Jonas decided to head upstairs to work on his inventing and keep
out of his mother’s way.
Outside of working
hours, Martin was trying to gain the guitar skills needed to earn a promotion.
Destiny was also
practising. She needed to raise her
skill level before she would have any chance of working in a bar.
Kami headed out to
speak to Galen, who was in his usual spot under the sprinkler.
Galen: You look annoyed love,
what’s up?
Kami: Oh, Galen. I just think I’m getting too old for
teenagers!
Galen: Who did what?
Kami: Jonas skipped school. The worst thing was he tried to lie about
it. I never thought my children would
feel the need to lie to me. If he is
having problems why doesn’t he just say?
Galen: I’m sure he’s just being a
teenager. Don’t forget he is a born
couch potato.
Kami: I guess *sigh*. Anyway, what are you still doing out
here? It’s freezing, you’ll catch your
death!
Galen: You worry too much.
Kami: You’d worry if I didn’t!
Galen: True *grins*.
I’ll be in soon. I promise.
Apart from the
occasional hiccoughs with her children, Kami was enjoying her retirement. She was often out and about on her broom and
loved the local SimFests.
Poppy and Prince were
also enjoying the SimFest :)
Moss was visiting
Dillon and Julian after school. He
missed Julian but was lost without his twin.
They sat together on
the porch in the sunshine doing homework and catching up with each other’s
lives.
Dillon’s behaviour
had improved greatly. He was a wonderful
uncle to Julian’s daughters. He had a
special bond with Lottie. She doted on
him and followed him everywhere.
Lacie was a quiet
child but loved her daddy. Julian often
worried about his second daughter; she just didn’t seem to be progressing as
well as Lottie. But he loved her all the
same.
Galen had been
feeling unwell. He tried not to show it
to the rest of the family, especially Kami.
The last thing he wanted was an I told you so for all the time he had
spent out under the sprinkler!
Moss had returned
home quite upset after his visit to Julian’s and had headed straight to
bed. Galen watched him sleep, wondering
if he had done the right thing keeping Dillon away so long.
Butler Bryce paid his
first visit!
Things had been
strained between Jonas and Kami since he had skipped school.
Jonas: Mum, I’m sorry I skipped
school and for lying about it.
Kami: Thank you Jonas. You do know you can talk to me about
anything. Don’t bury your problems or
they will grow like weeds.
Jonas: Thank you.
Kami: You do know I love you
right?
Jonas: Yes and I love you mum.
Clare was loving her
new job and was quite taken with the uniform.
Destiny was still
feeling lost without Orson. She had
tried phoning but he just rejected the calls.
Her texts had been ignored and she just wanted him to know how much she
missed him. So she decided to try the
old fashioned route and wrote him a love letter.
Moss had decided to
visit Jodie.
He was totally
smitten!
And he made sure she
knew it ;)
With her new career
going well, Clare wanted to make sure her body was in tip top condition and was
trying to stay away from junk food.
Clare: What flavour is that?
Moss: Maple syrup and bacon.
Clare: Oh! That’s my favourite!
Moss: You want some? I’ve made plenty.
Clare: Nope! I’m being good. Anyway this smells urm…
Moss: If you’re sure?
Clare: I’m fine. Just a little too much basil I think.
Jonas: Jeeze what is that smell?
Moss: Clare’s spag bol.
Jonas: Ugh! You really going to eat that sis?
Clare: It tastes better than it smells.
Jonas: if you say so!
The only trouble with
being a loner is that you spend a lot of time alone, making you an easy target
for all sorts of predators.
Including aliens.
Poor Grayson was
quite shaken up by the ordeal.
Grayson: I feel violated!
Kami had received a
very distressing phone call from her eldest son. Lacie had passed away.
(I know right, the game killed a toddler! I couldn’t believe it!)
Galen visited at
first light to support his son and daughter in law.
Lottie was shaken at
the loss of her little sister. She just
sat and stared into space, every now and then a small tear running down her
pale cheek.
In the weeks that
passed after the loss, Dillon proved invaluable in helping the family cope with
their loss.
When Galen came to visit,
Poppy and Lottie explained how invaluable Dillon had been and how changed he
was.
Although still unsure
as to whether Dillon should return home, Galen knew he could not let the twins
be parted on their birthday and arranged a party.
Adult Moss gained the
ambitions trait and his lifetime wish is to become a martial arts master.
Adult Dillon gained
the cat person trait and his lifetime wish is leader of the free world.
Jonas and Martina
seem to be getting along well ;)
Destiny still hadn’t
heard anything from Orson. She headed to
her sleeping bag and Parsnip for solace.
Destiny: Oh Parsnip, will he ever understand?
Martin had invited Carolina
over to visit.
However he had forgotten
about it being his brothers’ graduation!
Carolina: Don’t worry about me. I’ll just wait here. In the rain. *death stare*
The family all headed
off to the graduation ceremony.
Moss graduated with
the highest honour and was voted most likely to burn down his own house :/
Unfortunately with
Dillon not part of the active family I don’t know how he did. He looks pleased though!
Bless her; Carolina
had waited out in the rain for Martin to return.
But it was worth the
wait!
And she gladly
accepted.
Nawww! She’s soaked bless her!
The couple excitedly
spread the news of their engagement.
Clare, feeling sentimental
over her twin’s great news, wrote Adam a love letter. She really did miss him terribly. He was travelling in China so she hadn’t seen
him for quite some time and she hoped the letter would reach him.
Kami threw a
graduation party for Dillon and Moss.
And Galen had a
surprise in store for Moss.
Galen: I have decided to let Dillon come home.
Moss: Really?!
Galen: I think it’s time.
She had also
persuaded another guest to attend. Much
to Destiny’s surprise.
Destiny: Is that?
Orson!
Destiny: You’re here!
Orson: I’ve been a fool.
Orson: Can you ever forgive me? I was being jealous and possessive, you don’t
deserve that.
Destiny: I’ve missed you so much!
He agreed to start
dating again :)
Clare was growing
increasingly worried about her father.
Galen had not been right for some time and of late seemed tired and
distant.
Clare: You need to see a doctor dad.
Galen: Don’t be silly, I’m just old!
Clare: No, really. I’m worried.
Galen: I’m fine.
Lots of years in this ole dog yet!
But, just days later
Clare’s fears were realised.
And death came for
Galen :(
Our first Pendragon
to enter the family cemetery. Galen
Pendragon.
Kami was inconsolable. She just sat in Galen’s favourite chair and
rocked.
Clare was still
writing to Adam, despite not hearing from him.
She knew once he had finished his travels she would.
Moss was a huge fan
of martial arts and wanted to visit China.
With his new adulthood he booked a holiday.
For Dillon and
himself :)
The young men had an
amazing time exploring tombs.
Enjoying the time
together that they had longed for as teenagers.
As well as tomb
exploring they both gained new belts in martial arts.
All too soon it was
time to head home and for Dillon to re-join the family.
Moss and Dillon were
not the only ones to return home.
Much to Kami’s
delight, Galen had also decided to visit.
Moss and Dillon got
quite the shock to see their father’s ghost perched in the corner of the room.
Dillon took it
especially badly and fainted.
Dillon was finding it
hard fitting back in to life with such a big family. Especially around his sister and their ‘girl
talk’.
Dillon: OMG they can’t really be
talking about that!
Destiny: Were, freaking him out, quick say something
else!
Dillon: Exit stage left!
The
time had come for our remaining twins to become adults. First Grayson.
Grayson: I hate my hair.
And then Jonas.
Jonas: Oh, yeah. I’m hot.
Destiny: Pahaha! Look at that hair!
Grayson: *death stare* did she
laugh at me like that?
Yes. Yes she did.
The gorgeous Poppy
had also attended and it looks like a new little bundle of joy is on the way!
