Alice still had her jeep for now and could still drive. So the 75 miles needed to get to here was easy. In the back was Aurora and Ayden in their carry baskets and some it was on rougher tracks. She knew she could take things easy once she got here and Lucas could drive them back. She'd stopped half way for a break and to check on the babies needs but they were fine and enjoying the fresh air. So with jeans and boots and what looked like a rugby shirt and baseball cap she looked ready for this trip. There'd be time for a proper meal later on but she did a box of finger food and a flask of coffee ready for now. They'd plenty of time having left early to avoid the morning rush hour and she felt a bit more rested at least. About as rested as she was likely to get given two babies sleeping habits.

This was Lucas' favorite place, probably because very few people came here, and perhaps just perhaps he got to geek out without a lot of eyes but today it was his favorite place for a different reason. He got to bring his favorite people here not that it was not something that he had not thought about before but family things, he did like them. Yet at the same time he was still avoiding Sam as much as he could, his only fault but he would get around to it at least he kept saying. "You should have seen that apartment," he finally said. "Just covered in clothes everywhere it's like Sam has forgotten how to fold and put away laundry not to mention she had another baby, like what in the world is she thinking and Ace do not even get me started." He had never been this upset. "I just want hit him in his face." Alice Seraphim

She had rarely seen Lucas so worked up. Especially then it came to Sam. Alice always had been tidy and organised so she like Lucas put things away. Hearing Sam was that disorganised came as a shock to her; even more than finding out there was another baby around. "Another baby? I had no idea" she replied once out of the jeep. "But calm down. You really don't need to do that" she added regarding Ace. She had a feeling that might not mean getting babysitting help from Sam and Ace if the state of the apartment was something to go by. She also picked up the baby bag and slung that over a free shoulder along with Ayden's carry basket. It looked like the drive had put them both to sleep. They still had to check into the trail proper. "Does that mean she won't be helping us out yet?" she posed trying to calm Lucas down. Sam might well be going through what they were. Lucas Roberts

He stayed quiet for a second as he did his breathing exercises and then spoke. "Sorry I was just knocked back when I found out. Like why hide that from me? I am her brother and she did not even tell me and I tell Sam everything." He clearly was not taking this whole his sister had this husband thing well which was new to him. "I don't know she said she would but I am like just questioning her. Need to give her a lie detector test to be honest and probably a drug test too." The issue perhaps was that even though Sam was changing for the better it did not mean that it would be easy for Lucas to see but he was okay taking care of his own family and changing too. He got out so that he could help Alice by taking Aurora and the bag from her, but being careful in the process. "Takes me a minute to adjust to change is all but today is going to be good and I would not change that for anything." Alice Seraphim

It sounded like this was something that Sam and Lucas would have to sort out but today they had this as a family. Alice still hoped they could help her but that was for later on. She didn’t have a family experience like he has but her aunties had told her tales about their own families. So she knew something about that side of life. “We might be able to help Sam later on. She needs to figure out the changes in her life to a certain point. Then we can help” Alice softly replied. She still had the lunchbox and flask they’d need later and light was a light load. “Today will be good. Trust me” she added trying to reassure him. They’d learned so much about being parents in just a few days but the process was about also learning about each other. Now checked in they could start to explore the trail. Lucas Roberts

He honestly agreed so for the moment he was getting over himself and keeping his focus on the important things. He needed to learn to take a breather and put his head where it needed to be. "Alright I'm focused here where I need to be now," he said. He was still caught up in the aura of being a parent. "I think that being outside is good for the children, I hope so anyway. If it splits should we take left or right first?" Alice Seraphim

Lucas looked settled as they each took a child and now loaded up started to walk the trail. “I suppose as long we keep going forwards it dosen’t really matter” she suggested as she was curious about what they’d find on the way. She could see already that Ayden was awake again and making noises as he looked round. “I think our son likes being outside for starters”. She’d made sure both babies were dressed for fall and warmly enough but she worried about Aurora running at a lower body temperature. They’d figure out as they went if she’d need more or less layers but she at present had two layers like her brother. Lucas Roberts

He took a minute to make sure that he had adjusted Aurora as he needed and he was going to keep her inside of his own coat just in case as he listened. "Probably, I mean I can not even imagine being a baby and looking at all of this and being curious. It would certainly alert me but I do like that he likes it." He wanted to always have it be good for them here. "I am also going to do my best to make sure Aurora stays warm while we are out but not too hot so that she does not overheat if that is possible."

Both babies seemed to take this from their parents. Right now they both looked more like Lucas but they were curious like their parents. Aurora gurgled happily at her daddy as he adjusted her and now they could look at the signs to see what path they could take. “Good boy” she cooed to her son as the baby carrier rocked him and she flew up slightly to have a better view of what was ahead of them. There was a split ahead of them but it didn’t seem to make much difference about the choice. Once she landed she replied “if you think she needs that do so but I think she’ll be a daddies girl. The signs tell us where you’ll find different dinosaurs as well as about them. Also what they would have looked like”. Who didn’t like dinosaurs even if they hadn’t seen Jurassic park? Lucas Roberts

"Maybe it will be interesting to see how they turn out and what traits of ours they take on and do not take on as they develop into their own people." Exciting, scary, but all around thrilling. Either way he knew that it excited him and honestly that was the one thing that mattered the most at the end of the day. "Me and a couple of my coworkers were out here the other day, it was interesting." He had, had fun that day at work. "So how do you think you will feel when you go back to work?" Alice Seraphim

"They will be their own people but we'll be there to guide them and make a better world for our little darlings" Alice replied as she stilled the rocking of the carry basket. Ayden was clearly enjoying this judging by his reaction as well as the brief feeling of flight he got. "You were here? So what did you find that was so interesting" she posed. Then came a question. "I think I'll be able to cope but with these little darlings I'll know what I have to keep fighting for. If we make a better world they'll grow up knowing the good things and how to deal with the bad ones and keep making the world better themselves". She was sure of that as humanity having an understanding of oddity kind was a long way off. Living in peace seemed even further away. Lucas Roberts

He knew Alice loved her job and as good at it as she was, he knew she would be even more happier when she went back to work so he supported that one hundred percent with absolutely no questions ever needing to be asked. "Yeah we came out one work day, a leg I think no idea what it belongs to quite yet." The land seemed to have so many secrets but he was not letting that get to him. It was still home and he was still doing his best to make sure it remained a good land and space as well. "I agree," he said as he picked up Aurora so she could be close to him but she still felt fine. "All the more reason for what we do and I mean, hopefully as they learn who they are their home will treat them well too." Alice Seraphim

So they found a leg. Details would become clearer in time she supposed so she advised "I'm sure the pathology department of the Ashford PD could advise you further on it. You can gauge the age of a skeleton and if they suspect a crime it can be followed up". That was one way serious cases reached her. Meanwhile Aurora gurgled contently when her daddy held her. "Lets see what we can find" she cheerfully replied taking the chance to get some flight time in. She kept holding her sons carry basket as she was two feet of the ground and keeping in practice. It was easy to keep up with Lucas as she took in everything round her. This was the land they'd fight for and to keep as a refuge for their kind. Perhaps the future might have other refuges but right now this was the only one. Lucas Roberts

He was content to see what they could find and the truth was him getting out more was also good as he walked. He was also glad to see their children seem so alert about being outside. This being the first time that Lucas had seen something like this he was always still so shocked at how much had developed that he only knew a little about but it also made this place feel more and more like home to him. "If we go digging and we find anything resembling a human body part, you have no worries you are going to be the first person that I call, otherwise I would more than likely find myself freaking out too much."

It wouldn't matter if she was on an off day or a university day. She'd check out the call from Lucas. "I don't mind being on that scene. If you find a body it dosen't mean its a crime scene but its best to check it anyway. The guys and girls in Ashford PD Pathology department can tell you a lot more. Who really knows how long people have lived on this island?" she replied. Her fluttering was something Ayden seemed to like as the constant motion rocked his carry basket. Now they could branch off with a left or right option. The left led to an early era and the right a more recent one. Now she looked to Lucas to see where he wanted to go. Lucas Roberts
