I had been judged just as everybody else. I was allowed to pass. I could hardly contain myself and let a a squeal of joy. Thank goodness, I thought I wouldn't be allowed in because I didn't believe in harmony at first.
Anyway, I followed Lucy as she introduced us to her dad. He seemed like a very good person, and it was wonderful seeing Lucy so happy. It was a little bittersweet, seeing her reunited with her father when I was still missing Seth. But not even that could overwhelm them boiling joy that bubbling in my veins.

Grey and I entered Harmony together. As one. This is what we'd been waiting for. But not 3 steps into the haven, he stopped, frozen in place.
"What's wrong Grey?" I asked.
He didn't answer but pointed to a girl making her way over a hill coming toward us.
"Do you know her?" I asked, beginning to get worried.
He cradled his head in his hands and began to tremble.
"I'm sorry!" He whispered over and over. What could be so wrong that he wouldn't even speak to me?! I felt a hand on my shoulder. The mystery woman was gentle pushing me aside.
"Hey wait Lady-"
"Shhh, it's fine," She said to Grey ignoring me. She wrapped her arms around his now crouching figure. His body was shacking and I could hear him crying. This was the most emotional I'd ever seen him. This woman could only be one person.
The Deer Halfer!
"I'm sorry!" Grey repeated again.
"I forgive you." She said everytime.
Grey fell silent, still crouched, but regaining his composure. "Thank you." He said looking past the woman to me. I smiled. Why was he thanking me? "This is the woman I-" he choked on his words. "She transformed me."
"I figured!" I said.
He smiled, "Miss, this is the girl who helped me through it. She helped me accept my fate, and understand my faults. This is Dani."
What an introduction! I grinned and held out my hand, "Hi there."
She smiled and took my hand. I could hardly feel her touch. As soon as she touched me, she started to dissolve. I gasped and grey shouted "WAIT!" reaching out to grab her. It was too late. She was gone.
Just a spirit I guess.
"Well, I believe, we've truly achieved our own harmony now," I said, taking his hand and leading him over to where Io and Lucy were waving us over. It seemed they hadn't seen the Deer Halfer. Oh well, I thought, it wasn't their reconciliation.
