Chapter 16 - Elderly and still a Looker


Hank has taken over the Garden for me. I realised that I am a Level 8 and then Joss says I have already got a Life Plant then I don't need to master Gardening! I can leave it for a younger generation to do! So Hank can weed and water them now!



I got sent a Hot Tub for free! It's great, now that I bought that Lake across the road and added a Cafe I think we can indulge on ourselves a bit, I had a Garden and outdoor area started but it's coming out a bit more expensive than we hoped. I have also decided on the layout of our House. What House? So what I have decided is a sort of Town type thing with Alleys and paths connecting the different rooms. It might work but we will see.



Hank had his Elder Birthday! He still looks handsome to me though!






Agnes has been falsely accused too many times lately and the courts must have been the ones who started these rumours! They keep calling her a liar! She hasn't left the house in two weeks to be arrested or rummage in someone's trash!



George is cranking out some great Paintings! Not only that but he has Mastered Painting! He needs 2 Brilliants, 4 Masterpieces and 7 Paintings to Supermax! He also got promoted to a Level 8 Painter in his Career!




I've started sculpting, next to Agnes. She is getting older you know. We've fallen out a bit, everyone has. Chris and Agnes are hardly speaking because one the accusations was cheating.



Joss found another Camera at the Store and something that you harvest stuff with? She also met her Cousin, they are friends now. Poor Morty, stuck at home with his Vampire Mother.



I thought I overheard Joss asking him to move in but he refused, it wasn't her house or something. I'd be fine with it really, he would get a better job than at the Store with us.



Now it is my Birthday! Into an Elder, this should be fun...






Hank still says I look fantastic, I must admit, I have stayed clear of Wrinkles and look great for my age! I dyed my hair, it's a bit darker but oh well. It was either this or White I was not having Grey!




So I am an Elder. George and Joss turn into Young Adults tomorrow. I have to tell George everything. I hope he takes it well. I hope for the sake of this family that he does.

Chapter 17 - Telling the Truth


There he was, everyone else was asleep, now was my chance to tell George about this Dynasty.



I joined him in the Hot Tub. He seemed a bit confused, I should have been sleeping, I had work the next day.



And so I began...



"George... I have something to tell you, please don't interrupt. It's already hard enough. We are not ordinary, George. Far from it. We have Immortal Blood. I am not from this time you see. It all started a few years ago in this Time. A young Woman should have arrived and bought this Land, her name Diana Jade. She would marry a man and love him, have two daughters. She was Immortal but her blood was weak and she needed the aid of Ambrosia, food of the Gods. Ambrosia would keep her alive, to stay Immortal forever without aid there needed to be a Dynasty. A Dynasty of Eight Immortal Sims, She was the first and her first born was the Second. Her other daughter would die because she couldn't save her. The first born was called Gabriella and her sister was Madeline. Gabriella married a man called Cemre. They had a Son, Declan. Declan was the Third Immortal. He married a woman called Janna. Janna gave birth to Twins. The First Born was Eliza. The second was raised away from the others and grew up clever and secure, she worked out everything and what was going on. She would die and her Sister would live. At the age of 10 she knew the secret of her family. Then they told Eliza and everything came crashing down, they showed Eliza the Museums, the Twins were 16 at the time. Eliza asked why there were only two portraits of her Great-Grandmother. There should have been three. A meeting was called. The Dynasty had failed and they would all die. The Reaper would come and he would reap. He would Reap the Immortals and their Loves. Diana would die first, Gabriella, Declan, Eliza, Cemre, Janna and then Madeline and the youngest Twin. Madeline was known to the Reaper. The Twin wasn't, she had been raised away from sight, by sheer accident this Twin had given her family a life line. Her Great-Grandmother told her to run, run to the Time Machine the Twin had built and escape the Reaper. It would be a long time until the Reaper found her and she could become Immortal, she had the Blood. So the Twin fled for her life, just as the screams began. The Twins name was Shannon, Shannon Jade. George, I escaped from the Reaper. Do you see now why I have to do this. I have to let your Father die, my friends die, your Wife die, and everyone else die apart from myself and you, your child and so on."

I let it sink in, I just hoped he would understand.



"Mum, what happens when the Dynasty is complete."

It suprised me but I answered.

"The Reaper can not take from us again, we can use our Immortal Powers to revive our lost ones. I can bring my family home, bring them back. They will live forever at the end George, but we will have Heartbreak first."



"I'll do it. I'll do it for you and Dad, Joss, Chris, Agnes and anyone else."



It was all I needed, I was happy now. My Son was with me. We could do it.



I told George all the challenges he needed to do, turns out he was very close to a lot of them.



We would do it, we would do it together. Bound through Blood and Family. Nothing would break us this time.

George took that really well! Such a responsible kid!

Hiep Hiep Hurray to both Hank and Jade - although I'm not sure they're all that happy to age into elders themselves! They both still look very vital though - so they've got nothing to worry about!

[Gogowars329]

Great work so far Thomas!!

[samoht04]

Thanks Gogo!

@ Phyre - Jade is the surname not Shannons first name. Also thanks as well. They do stay looking young.

[Alexandria_]

Happy birthday Shannon!
That talk went smoothly

[samoht04]

Thanks Alexandria! Well George is just so understanding about it all.

[TheChronicR]

Happy b'day Shannon and Hank! You still look awesome.
George turned out to be such a great guy! Who knew? Nah, kidding. Awesome updates, as always.

[Phyre]

@ Phyre - Jade is the surname not Shannons first name. Also thanks as well. They do stay looking young.

I keep forgetting - every time

For some reason she just looks like a Jade...

Probably because she is. Hah!

Bad joke, sorry I'll increase my efforts to not forget her first name is Shannon

[samoht04]

Thanks Chronic!

Lol, it's fine Phyre! You can call her Jade if you want! I keep calling George, Hank. Now that he's a YA in game.

(I'm some where on the coast of wales so can't post update, we had to leave early.)
