PART ONE

Chapter One
Tru Davies was exhausted by the time she reached her apartment. At
least she had saved one more life. She grabbed a snack, and then
headed for bed.

As she let her soft, round body sink into sleep, she wondered what
lay ahead for her. All she could think of was that movie, Sixth
Sense, where the little boy said, "I see dead people." She didn't
just see dead people; she talked to them, and changed their
destinies. What about her destiny? What wt? At? And why couldn't
she change the one destiny that mattered the most; that of her
Mom's?

Tru pondered these questions, as she slowly drifted into a long,
deep sleep.

Chapter Two

The sun streaming through the windows marked the beginning of a new
day. As she slowly let the warm water wash over her body, Tru smiled.
She was meeting Lindsay for lunch and an afternoon of shopping. She
enjoyed spending time with her best friend. Lindsay was fun and
almost made her forget the bodies in the morgue.

Tru finished her shower and dressed in a pair of her favorite tight
jeans, and a low cut red t-shirt. Rushing out of her apartment, she
ran down the busy street. As usual, she was late.

She walked into the busy restaurant and noticed her friend sitting
alone by the window.

"Sorry I'm late," she exclaimed breathlessly, as she plopped down in
the chair opposite her.

Lindsay smiled. "Again, try always."

The girls laughed and decided on a light lunch of salads. Then they
rushed off to do some serious shopping.

They started at a small boutique and slowly helped each other pick
out some new shoes.

"Hey," said Lindsay, "Lets go see if we can find some sexy bikinis.
I think we're both in pretty good bikini shape."

Tru looked over at Lindsay and had to agree that her friend was in
very good shape. She had on a pair of tight white pants and a small
white t-shirt. She had always admired her firm little ass.

"Ok, sounds good," replied Tru. "Bikinis in New York, welguesguess
we can wear them sometime. Hey, I'm going to look for a thong."

As she turned to look at Lindsay now, she swore that her friend was
checking out every inch of her body. "It's my imagination," she
said to herself, but she felt a small tingle go through her anyway.

Chapter Three

The girls quickly found their way to the swim suit department of the
large store. "Hey look at this," exclaimed Lindsay, holding up a
tiny blue thong bikini. "Think this would look good on me?"

Tru looked over and smiled a big wide smile. The image of Lindsay in
that tiny piece of cloth, and nothing more, was something she could
not wait to see.

The girls slowly wandered around picking up suit after suit, until
they both had a handful of very brief bikinis.

"Ok, lead the way to the dressing room," said Lindsay, as she chose
one more suit to try on.

Tru picked up on one word in that sentence. "Room" not rooms. Did
her friend want to use the same dressing room? She immediately
opened the door to one huge dressing room. "How about this," she
said, hesitantly.

"Great!" replied Lindsay, as she eagerly entered the room and
dropped her stack of suits on the chair. Tru gulped. She felt her
heart racing. The thought of seeing her best friend naked was
suddenly exciting. She had known Lindsay for years but strangely
they never had been in a situation where they were undressed
together. Tru wondered why she felt this way now. She had never,
to her knowledge, had sexual feelings for her friend, or any girl.
Today, from the moment she got up, all she had thought of was
spending time with her friend, and now she was thinking much more.

Lindsay quickly pulled off her t-shirt, revealing her soft, round
breasts.
She wore no bra. Tru stared. Then quickly looked away, hoping her
friend had not noticed.

"Hey, am I the only one trying on suits here?" exclaimed Lindsay.

Tru quickly pulled off her shirt and loosened her brief bra, and let
it drop to the dressing room floor. Lindsay smiled at her friend,
not bothering to hide the fact that she was staring openly at her
large, full breasts.

Tru looked down at the floor, almost embarrassed. As she looked up
again, she watched her friend slip out of her tight pants, and bend
over to put them on the chair. She could not stop staring at her ass
in a very brief pair of white lace panties.

Tru pulled off her jeans and dropped them in the corner of the
room. She had on a pair of blue thong panties, and as she looked
up, she noticed her friend staring at her ass in the big mirror. The
dressing room was suddenly very warm.

Both girls stood there for a moment making small talk. Tru made the
first move this time. She stared opening at Lindsay and slowly slid
off her panties. Lindsay stared back, as she pulled down hers, and
let them drop to the floor.

The girls were naked. They stood there in the middle of the big
dressing room staring and checking out each other's round, sexy
bodies.

"Turn around." Lindsay ordered.

Tru smiled and turned around, revealing her firm, round ass to her
friend. She then gazed back over her shoulder. "Like what you see?"
she asked, coyly.

"I like," replied Lindsay, with a huge grin.

"Now you," gestured Tru. "Show me you're ass now."

"Hey, you already saw it," replied Lindsay. "I saw you checking it
out earlier."

Tru felt herself almost blushing.

Lindsay moved forward, very close to her friend. The girls stood
quietly, as they felt the chemistry rise between them. Finally
neither could stand it a moment longer.

"Oh God! "Exclaimed Tru, and kissed Lindsay hard. It was a long,
deep, passionate kiss that met a very welcome response. As soon as
they both felt warm, soft lips on theirs, they could not stop. They
wanted each other now; quickly and urgently.

Tru began to work her mouth down her friend's neck to her soft, firm
breasts. She grabbed each soft mound and began to lick and suck on
each hard, pink nipple. She moved her fingers slowly over the
nipples, teasing the blonde.

Lindsay held onto her friend's head and gasped, "God Tru! That feels
so good!"

Tru continued to work her hands and mouth down the blonde's soft,
smooth skin until she reached her destination.

Lindsay was shaking and moaning.

Tru pushed her friend down onto the chair. Suits flew every where.
She got down on her knees in front of her and quickly spread her
legs wide. She slowly licked up the inside of each firm, tan thigh,
until her hot tongue found her friend's moist pussy.

Lindsay let her head roll back and moaned softly, as she felt Tru's
eager tongue move over the outside of her dripping wet lips, then
lick her swollen clit. Tru held on to the blonde's hips and plunged
her tongue up inside her.

Lindsay screamed. "Oh, Tru!"

Tru dove into her soaking wet pussy further and further, enjoying
the taste of her sweet juices, as she lapped and fucked her harder
and deeper.

Lindsay moved her body faster and faster towards her friend, as she
gasped louder and louder. Tru fucked her with her tongue and
fingers. First one then the other. Lindsay screamed, "Deeper!" Tru
pushed in deeper.
Lindsay let herself go. Tru held on as she felt her friend's body
shake in uncontrollable spasms. Finally Lindsay collapsed back
against the chair, and Tru slowly licked the outside of her friend's
warm wet pussy dry.

Her mouth covered with the liquid, she got up and bent in and kissed
Lindsay on her mouth.

"Umm, tastes good," Lindsay murmured as she licked her own juices
off the brunette's lips. She then pulled Tru down on top of her lap
and kissed her passionately. "I never felt anything that good
before," she sighed as she smiled at her friend now.

Tru held on to Lindsay and they hugged for a while.

"Get up," ordered the blonde suddenly.

Tru stood up, and pulled her friend to her feet.

Lindsay put her arms around the brunette and then suddenly pushed
her firmly against the opposite wall of the dressing room. She held
her there; kissing her long and hard.

"Don't move," she ordered, as she moved her hands urgently over
Tru's large soft breasts. "Umm, you have a great body. I want to
taste every inch of it." She then moved her mouth and hands over her
friend's breasts; then down to her stomach, and over her pussy hair.
Tru let out a moan as her friend found her, now soaking wet, opening
and plunged two fingers up into it.

"Lindsay, oh Lindsay," gasped Tru softly.

"You like that?" asked Lindsay.

"Oh yes!" said Tru, louder now.

"Then I think you will really love this," she said firmly, as she
turned her friend around to face the wall. "Now leave your hands on
the wall, move your legs back and bend over," she ordered.

Tru complied eagerly.

Lindsay gazed at the brunette's round, smooth ass right there in
front of her. She got down on her knees behind her, and began to
lick all over each ass cheek with her tongue.

Tru felt her body begin to shake. This felt so good.

Lindsay moved her tongue around Tru's ass hole and then slowly
pushed it up inside her.

Tru screamed. "Oh, Oh, push it in deeper!"

Lindsay eagerly pushed her tongue up farther.

"Fuck me hard and deep," screamed Tru.

Lindsay now pushed two fingers up inside her friend, and pushed them
in deeper and deeper.

Tru moved her hips hard and fast.

Lindsay slammed them in faster.

Finally Tru let herself cum hard and long. Lindsay held on to her as
she slowly dropped to the dressing room floor.

The girls lay on the floor hugging and kissing softly. Their warm,
wet bodies entwined amidst a sea of bathing suits.

Finally they realized just where they were, and slowly got up.

"Well, do you think maybe we should try on some of these things?"
Lindsay said with a huge grin.

"Ok, I guess that's why we were here," smiled Tru.


Chapter Four

The girls took turns modeling suits for each other. They each chose
a tiny thong, and quickly slipped into their clothes. As they left
the dressing room and wandered out to the main department, they
noticed that they seemed to be the focus of attention. People smiled
and whispered as they walked by.

"Hey I guess we were kind of loud in there," said Tru, as she
reached over and gave her friend a smile.

"Let's give them something else to remember us by," Lindsay
whispered. She turned and gave Tru a big, deep passionate kiss.

People stopped and stared, as the two let the kiss linger just long
enough to let the entire group of people take it all in. Then they
both stopped and took turns squeezing each other's ass, as they paid
for their purchases and walked out.

They both laughed loudly, as they hugged and made their way down the
busy street.

"God that was fun," said Lindsay, smiling.

"Lindsay, I don't think I ever felt as happy as I do now," said Tru
as she gazed at her friend.

The girls smiled and held hands as they continued on.

"Hey isn't that the new boutique that just opened last week?"
exclaimed Tru as she let go of her friend's hand and began to cross
the street.

Lindsay had stopped to read the big sign in front before she
followed. She thought that this shop was in the next block.

As the blonde stared at the sign, she suddenly heard the sound of
brakes squealing, and a long, loud thud. She let her eyes wander
back to the street in front of her, and there she saw Tru in lying
on her side on the hood of a yellow taxi cab. She was not moving.

Lindsay screamed, and ran over to the car. A large group of people
were already gathered around trying to talk to the brunette.
Lindsay pushed her way through the crowd and stopped. Tru was not
moving. A large man reached in and felt her neck, "I can't find a
pulse," he shouted.

Lindsay stood motionless gasping and crying, "Tru, don't you dare
die on me!" Someone tried CPR. The police and ambulance arrived.
They tried over and over to revive the brunette, but to no avail.

Lindsay sobbed openly as she watched them pick her friend up, put
her on a stretcher and cover her with a sheet.

As they drove away she collapsed on the curb her head in her hands
unable to stop sobbing.

Chapter Five

The morgue was a busy place that evening. Davis was working at his
desk most of the night. The new arrivals were rolled past him into
the back, tagged, and placed into the drawers. Davis looked at his
watch. Tru was late.
Just as he was about to pick up the phone, and see just how late she
was going to be, he heard familiar footsteps running down the long
hall.

He turned around in his chair and got back to work, a bit annoyed
that she was always late for everything.

"There are about 5 new admissions back there," he said loudly to the
figure rushing by behind his back. "I want to show you something
when you have a chance."

He heard the door close and returned to the computer screen before
him.


PART TWO

Chapter One

When Tru finally awoke from her long, deep sleep she rolled over and
glanced at the clock beside her bed. She sat bolt upright, then
looked again, this time, trying to focus only on the face of the
clock. "How could it be that late!" She said out loud. Had she
really slept all day and into the night?


She jumped out of bed. She would have to hurry now to make it to
work on time. She dashed into the bathroom. As she waited for the
water to warm up in the shower, she returned to her room and rifled
through her closet looking for her favorite red top and jeans. They
were missing. She hunted through the entire closet. They were
nowhere to be found. She knew that they were there yesterday, as she
had seen them.

Tru shook her head. "What is going on here?" she exclaimed. Well
she had no time now to figure it all out. She showered and dressed
quickly and hurried to work.

She rushed by Davis and entered the back room, closing the big door
behind her. She still felt a bit groggy, but went on with her job.

By the time she reached the last new body in the row of drawers, she
felt a bit better and more awake. She slowly opened the heavy drawer
and pulled off the sheet covering the body of a girl.

Tru let out a scream, as she stepped back and leaned against the
huge cabinet. She closed her eyes, took a deep breath, and forced
herself to look again.

She stood there motionless, staring at her own dead body. It's face
was pale white, and it wore the red top and jeans she wissiissing.
Tru felt light headed. Just as she was about to lose consciousness,
she was jolted back by the image of her own apparition slowly rising
up before her.

It stepped out of the body and stood up. Tru stepped back
unsteadily, holding onto the cabinet for support. She felt her
entire body shaking.

The apparition smiled now. Tru gasped as she heard it speak to her
in her own voice. "Help me," it said. "Help yourself, and the
others."

Tru stepped back in terror. "How? What?" she stammered. "I don't
understand."

The apparition moved slowly towards the frightened gi"Do"Don't be
afraid my little one," she said softly.

A calm, warm feeling washed through Tru. She stopped shaking and
stood still, suddenly knowing that this image was not here to harm
her.

"You have all the information you need to understand," said the
apparition. "I can only tell you so much. You have the power to
change destinies. The answers are within you, if you only listen.

Tru stood staring at the image of herself with a puzzled look on her
face. She no longer felt afraid. "I don't know anything, though,"
Tru said.

"I can tell you this, my little one. Today was one of the happiest
days of your life. You lived it, and you will remember it when you
live it again. You were meant to be happy like you were today. It
is how it would have been. Your calling has been to help others,
which you have done unselfishly. Now you must help yourself and
those dear to you. This day does not have to end this way, if you
find the key."

Tru began to speak, but just as she was about to ask another
question, the apparition reached out and grasped her wrist. "Help
yourself, and those you love," she said softly. Suddenly Tru was
again jolted back to the beginning of a new day.

PART THREE

Chapter One

Once again, the day began with warm sunshine spilling into the room.
Tru awoke with a start. Confused, she sat up and looked around.
Instantly, it all came back to her. All of it. The entire day,
beginning to end.

Tru remembered Lindsay in the dressing room naked. She smiled. She
remembered warm hands, hot kisses. Then… "Oh God!" she
screamed. "I died!" She felt sick inside. After a few deep breaths,
she was able to calm herself.

The image of the apparition suddenly made her feel much better. What
did it say again? Oh, the answers were within her, she had the
power to change the destinies of those dear to her, if she found the
key? What did this all mean? If she was dead, how could she be here
at all? She had so many questions, but it would be easy to save
herself, wouldn't it?

"I won't cross the street, that will take care of that," she said
out loud. There was more though. She had the power to change the
destinies of those dear to her. Who? It must be Meredith and
Harrison then. Who else did she have really? Her sister and brother
were her family now. Her Dad wasn't part of her life, and her Mom,
well she had been murdered when she was a kid.

Tru got out of bed and walked into the bathroom, trying very hard to
understand what the apparition had told her. She did know that it
was a positive message. She felt a sense of warmth every time she
thought of it.

"Well I guess I better get on with this day," she said. It's the
most important day of my life. I better not screw this one up."

Tru showered quickly and dried off. She hesitated as she opened the
closet door. "Would it be there, or not?" She opened the door
wide. Yes there it was; the outfit she had worn that day, the red t-
shirt, and jeans hung side by side in front of her.

She dressed slowly now, trying so hard to think of what to do. How
to help her family as well as herself. Surely it was not as easy
as not chosing to step into the street. No, it was about changing
the other's destinies too. What key?


Chapter Two

As Tru rushed down the street to the restaurant, the image of the
apparition kept returning. The voice, though it was hers, sounded
like someone else that she knew. The words it used; the tone of
it's voice, were so familiar.


Tru entered the busy restaurant. There was Lindsay sitting alone in
the window. If she wanted to change this day, she would have to do
it carefully as to not change the outcome before the accident. If
this day was meant to happen, then it had to happen as before, until
she reached the right point. She hoped that she would know just when
that was. She had no idea what to do at the moment. This was all so
confusing.

"I guess I will let it happen but keep searching for the so
called "key" to all of this." Tru said under her breath.

The girls ate their salads and headed off to shop. Tru knew what
was ahead of her. Even though this day was so important, she
couldn\elp elp smiling in anticipation. It would be a very nice few
hours, and she didn't mind reliving that part a bit.

Chapter Three

The day continued as before. The girls shopped for shoes, then went
to the bathing suit department of the large store.

They again, entered the one large dressing room. Tru stood there
smiling, knowing what was coming next.

Again, the girls kissed, and they made passionate love. Afterward,
as they lay on the dressing room floor hugging and kissing, Tru
suddenly realized that she had to say something that she had been
unable to say to the blonde the first time.

"I want to tell you something," stammered Tru, gazing directly into
her friend's big, round eyes.

"Say anything you want," said Lindsay, as she held onto the brunette
tighter.

"I.. well… I love you. It's not just a sex thing. You've been my
friend for a long time. Now it's more. I know this is what was
supposed to happen."

Tru turned away, and continued. "If you don't feel the same, hey,
it's ok. I understand. I never thought I would fall in love with a
girl, but I did.
If we never do this again…"

"Hey!" Lindsay said firmly. "You have it all wrong. I loved this, it
was perfect, and well, I kinda feel the same. In fact, well, I do
feel the same."

Tru turned around now. Lindsay smiled at her friend. "I love you
too," she said.

They kissed softly and lay there for a while longer. Tru didn't want
this moment to end. Right now, she was the happiest she had ever
been in her life. She could stop her own death easily, but that was
not the point of all this. It was also to change her loved one's
destinies.

Suddenly Tru sat up and smiled openly. Of course she was the key.
She was the one who could make Meredith and Harrison's lives better,
but she realized now that she had more time to accomplish this. If
she was not there to be hit by the car, the day would continue on,
and something would lead her to solving the rest.


The girls left the dressing room after trying on their suits. This
time Tru decided to look around at the crowd of people. Right now
at this moment she was so full oppinppiness that she was more aware
of everything.

People were staring, and smiling and whispering to each other. As
Tru's eyes scanned the room, they stopped on a face in the back
corner. It was that of a woman. Tru stopped and stared. It was the
apparition of herself smiling at her. The image looked right at her,
and beckoned her to come.

Tru moved towards it. Lindsay was standing behind her. "Hey where
are you going?" she shouted, as Tru hurried towards the corner of
the room.

"Stay here," ordered Tru, firmly. If I don't return soon, go home
and I'll meet you there.

"What's wrong?" asked Lindsay, anxiously.

Tru turned and give her a big kiss. "Nothing is wrong. If can pull
this off, everything will be right for once."

Lindsay stood there wondering what was going on, as she watched her
friend rush off. "She said it will be allright, so I have to
believe it," she said under her breath.


Chapter Four

Tru pushed through the crowd of people. The apparition stood there,
almost waiting for her. Just as she approached the image, it turned
and ran towards the exit doors. Tru followed. "Wait!" she
screamed, "Wait!"

They reached the stairs. Tru had almost caught up with it, when she
stumbled and fell. Getting up quickly, she tried to gain the ground
that she had lost. Every time Tru would almost reach it, something
would happen to prevent her from her goal.

"It's as if I am being led somewhere," said Tru to herself. "Where
is she leading me?"

The chase continued down back streets, around corners, and up alleuntiuntil Tru realized where she was going. She was in her old
neighborhood; the place where she grew up as a child.

The apparition led her to the room where she had seen her Mother
murdered. Tru stopped. The apparition turned and spoke.

"Don't be afraid, little one." It said, and vanished.

Tru stood there frozen. Suddenly she knew what was happening. It was
at last becoming clear to her.

The words `my little one' meant only one thing. Tru looked down at
her body now. It was that of a child. She held out her hands. They
were her hands as a child.
She was back at the time and place of her Mother's death. There was
a reason why the apparition's voice seemed so familiar and made her
feel so warm inside and called her `my little one'.

Tru gasped. "You were talking though my body on that slab. You
wanted me to follow you back in time to this moment," she shouted to
the empty kitchen around her. "It was you, Mom! Oh Mom!"

Tears filled the small child's eyes now as she searched around the
room for her Mother.

It was 1993 now, and the events of the past were about to happen
again. Tru gluped and took a deep breath. "I may have my old child's
body," she said to herself, "but I do have the brains of an adult."

Everything began again. She saw the figure of a pretty, dark haired
woman enter the room. Tru reached out for her, but realized that she
must remain very still

She saw the figure of a man enter the window and start towards her
Mother. She couldn't see his face, just as before, but this time she
could do something.

Tru turned and saw the large kitchen knife that was there that day.
Instead of the man using it to stab her Mom, she would use it her
way.

It all took place instantly, but to Tru, it was as if it happened in
slow motion. Tru grabbed for the knife. The man approached her Mom
from behind. Before he could touch her, the small child ran
forward, and, as the press described later, `with the strength of an
adult women', she stabbed him 7 times in the back. He fell and died
on the kitchen floor right then and there.

Tru stepped back shaking and crying. She dropped knifknife. Her Mom
turned, saw the dead man and rushed over to hold her and comfort her
sobbing child.

"It's allright my little one," she said, as she held her
close. "It's ok."

The moment Tru felt the warmth of her Mother's arms around her and
the sound of her soft voice, she was immediately catapulted ahead to
the present.

Chapter Five

Tru was back in the Morgue standing in the very spot where she had
first seen the apparition of herself. She looked down and was glad
to see that she was again a full grown woman.

For the moment she was a bit confused. So much had happened so
quickly. She leaned back against the morgue cabinet and took a deep
breath, trying to sort it all out in her mind. She was beginning to
wonder what was real and what exactly she had changed. She appeared
to be all in one piece, and looked the same as before. She still
wore the red top and jeans. She wasn't hurt.

She looked at her reflection in the shiny metal cabinet. Not a hair
was out of place. How was any of this possible?

She couldn't remember what she had changed.

Just then she heard a sound. It seemed to come from one of the big
drawers. "Oh no, not again," she exclaimed. "Not now, I can't save
one more person if I can't figure out what happened to me."

The sound got louder. Tru started opening drawer after drawer. Some
were empty, some had bodies in them. Finally she reached the
source of the noise.

She opened the drawer, and uncovered a body. She stepped back, and
froze.

It was the body of her Mother.

Tru gasped.

The body sat up, turned, and smiled at her.

"You fulfilled your destiny today," it said softly, and you changed
the lives of everyone you love."

Tru was still puzzled. All she knew was that she had left Lindsay at
a store, run off, and somehow gone back in time to prevent her
Mother's murder.

"But how did I change anything?" said Tru to her Mom. Why don't I
remember the changes? And, you are dead now. So I didn't do a thing
did I?"

The image reached out and grasped Tru's wrist. "It's ok my little
one," it said.

Instantly Tru was back in the big department store standing next to
Lindsay.

PART FOUR

Chapter One

Tru stood there for a moment trying to take this all in. What had
happened? Had she changed the day or not? Lindsay looked at her with
a puzzled smile .

"Hey, back to reality," she said as she hugged her friend. "You were
off in some little world all your own here. We have been standing in
this long line for 5 minutes and you haven't said a word."

Tru reached over and kissed Lindsay. This much was real. She was
very happy about that.

The girls paid for their purchases and started down the street hand
and hand, just as they did twice before. Tru wondered what to do
next. She knew one thing, she wasn't about to cross that street
today.

Suddenly they both heard the sound of squealing brakes, and a thud.

Tru stopped, frozen in place. She looked over and saw the body of
her Mother on top of a car. People gathered around. A large man
shouted,
"Get help!"
Tru rushed over and stood above her dying Mother. "Oh Mom," she
sobbed. "I understand now."

Tru's Mom opened her eyes and looked up at her daughter. "Tru, she
said weakly, "I'ts my time now. It's ok". Then she slowly slipped
away into death.

Tru stood there sobbing. Lindsay walked over, put her arms around
her, and led her to the curb. The two girls sat there holding each
other.

"I don't understand much of this, but something happened here today,
didn't it?" said Lindsay to her friend, and now lover.

Tru looked up at her, and finally spoke.

"It's a long story, and I will tell you all of it, but first you
have to answer a few questions for me, please."

"Of course, anything," said Lindsay.

"I know this will sound strange but chalk it up to the trauma of
losing my Mom. Can you fill me in on a few things?"

Lindsay was worried now. Tru looked like she really was having a
breakdown.

Just then Meredith and Harrison appeared, as if out of nowhere.

"Oh God, Tru," sobbed Meredith, as she pulled her sister up on her
feet and hugged her. We saw the accident happen on the other side
of the street, but we couldn't get over here. The crowd was
huge. "It was Mom. We were all having lunch together in the park."

Harrison grabbed Tru and hugged her tightly. "She was going on and
on about some stupid store opening," he said angrily. She never
looked before she crossed. She always told us to, but she never did."

Tru stopped and stepped back. She stared at her brother and sister,
and at last all the pieces of the past came into place.

Harrison wore a three piece suit and carried a brief case. She
remembered that after college he had opened a business with his best
friend and was now a very successful business man. He and his wife
lived in Connecticut and they all spent summers at his estate.

She turned to Meredith who was now a very prominent lawyer, but one
who took many cases involving poor and needy people. She lived in
the penthouse above her office with her girl friend who was also her
lover.

Lindsay hugged Tru again. "I know it doesn't help much, but you have
to know that your Mom had so many happy years after you saved her
life."

Chapter Two

Tru remembered now.

All the years in the house with her Mom and Dad. The fun times with
her family at the lake. Her Mom and Dad had finally divorced, but
Mom had remarried and had a good life. She had changed all that,
hadn't she?

Tru walked slowly away from the others. She looked off into the
distance, and spoke to no one in particular. "I did find my Tru
Destiny didn't I?'"

The apparition of her Mom appeared before her. "Yes, you did your
job well. What you did in the present allowed you to return to
change the past. Along the way you helped many people also fulfill
their true destinies. But now, your job is done. Go and enjoy your
life."

"Tru cried softly as she gazed at the image of her Mother for the
last time. "You mean no more re living the days?" she asked through
her tears.

"You have met your true calling. Now you will live a normal life.
It's time for me to finally leave you."

"No, don't go!" said Tru, sobbing openly.

"My time is here," said the image.
Tru watched the form disappear. She stood there sobbing for a bit
and then turned to join her lover, her family, and her future.

THE END
