Please note that all I'm about to say about Faith Seed here is my own interpretation based on the base game (Far Cry 5) alone: I do not consider any "revelation" in the Collapse DLC canon nor relevant to FC5's continuity due to a number of reasons I won't share here, and sincerely do not care for "Word of God/Saint Paul" based on principle. Now, some similarities and differences I thought were worth sharing about Silva & Faith. Both Silva & Faith share a father (figure) who fit them into a role that specifically places them on an idealized pedestal they must maintain and functions for some kind of spiritual/religious purpose, but is also a role that is explicitly (and fatally) replaceable should they falter or stray from their assigned purpose, just like their previous predecessors. Silva and Faith share a history of abuse from a birth parent/s (I do believe Faith when she says she was abused by her birth family), which also led them in jumping at the chance of a familial connection with someone who could fulfill that familial role (specifically a kind of paternal role: Paul for Silva, and Joseph for Faith). Both are women in positions of influence and authority, especially in their respective factions. Both are deceptive in their own ways and for their own reasons, especially in relation to their pasts, and both have a complicated relationship with honesty and often mask their truths behind a persona/performance. Both are cunning, tactical, and extremely spiteful towards those whom they hold low standings with. And finally, both had a previous personal identity that they viewed as weak, broken or just negatively, until someone or something came into/happened to them in their lives that led to their "rebirth" as a stronger, more powerful and overall, "better version" of themselves. There's likely more similarities, but the differences are... staggeringly contrasting.

Silva and Faith's replaceable roles bestowed upon them by a "father" in their lives is a prime example; its apparent Faith has lasted far longer than her predecessors (Lana and Selena), likely for years, and while her replaceability will never fully go away (the contrast between her songs & propaganda signs and John & Jacob's more personal + visibly printed faces on the propaganda/billboards), her impact on the Project at Eden's Gate with her perfection over Bliss (+ her own immunity towards it) seems to have ensured the threat of a replacement won't be anytime soon, or at all since she performs her role flawlessly enough to have Joseph's full confidence and an overall positive (if unideal & unhealthy) bond with him, meanwhile with Silva it was a matter of luck that she lasted as long as she did - in short, she wasn't meant to be born a girl, but Adam was prevented from infanticide by likely the closest person he held respect to in his life (his childhood friend Alvarich whom had been indoctrinated into the Congregation alongside Adam, groomed into becoming the future Prophet's main adviser), with reasoning that Adam's (frankly unreachable) goals could still work even though the "Judas" he wanted for a son was instead a girl (which quelled Adam enough to not immediately murder his new daughter but did exile Alvarich to the Mines for standing up to him this one time), and so Adam kept Silva around to become his "Judas" whom would betray him (while occasionally attempting to take her life when he felt like forgetting the vow he made to Alvarich for a couple seconds), and yet held no genuine love for her (and treated her like shit most of the time) just he held no love for her failed predecessors, whom were all blood siblings and were numerous compared to Faith's predecessors. Silva's adoptive father/daughter relationship with Paul was far more stable, unconditional and equal in standing (at least during their time on the Archipiélagos) than Joseph & Faith's own will ever be, and their relationship with those under their own positions of authority is quite contrasting too; Faith's is parasocial and (to an extent) one-sided but also extremely toxic (with Faith perhaps having the capacity to care for her underlings but still reducing them to mere disposable yet martyred cannon fodder and often taking away their bodily autonomy too) while Silva's leadership in the Resistance is based on mutual respect and trust through genuine connection and understanding. Silva is evasive and deflective of her past due to how much pain and sorrow it brings to herself (as well as sounding outright unbelievable), while Faith weaves whatever truths she tells about her past along with lies to better weaponize it for manipulation to lure new convents into the Project at Eden's Gate for Joseph. Their spite also differs: Faith's spite is violently disproportionate and meant only to psychologically "punish" her offender while Silva's spite towards those who offended her (specifically John) is strictly targeted towards them and only affects them, and the spite is more a "cherry on top" kind of personal retribution that doesn't get in the way of an ongoing mission. Faith is a known liar and for those savvy enough (like Silva herself), can see through her tricks, while Silva is someone who is genuinely hard to read and would be someone described as mysterious or mystique (unbeknowst to her of course), and such an obstacle drives Faith up the wall (while also inspiring a bit of curiosity surrounding the deputy).

And lastly, their current identities; Faith's was given as a role that was convenient for her to unshackle herself from the sad & unfulfilled life as Rachel, even when it came with conditions, while the identity of Silva came through the Tumultite traditions she grew accustomed to; essentially, she sheds the meeker identity of Sylvester, a persona her father Adam forced upon her, to grow into the more stable and firmer identity of Silva, a mosiac of the life experiences she's gone through and an identity born from a cherished nickname given to her by the positive influence of a loving and accepting community. Both Silva and Faith's relationship with violence AND their faith, especially with how it overlaps with their own relationship together, is also something to discuss, but for another post and time:

"I once was a child With innocent eyes And my family swore They knew best for my life

I followed their rules As I played with my friends When it came to the world Never thought it would end

Help me faith Help me faith, shield me from sorrow From fear of tomorrow Help me faith Help me faith, shield me from sadness From worry and madness Lead me to the bliss

And as I grew up I could never be free 'Cause the shackles I wore Can't be touched to be seen

My heart never loved And my soul couldn't laugh So much hate in my life Couldn't make out the path

Help me faith Help me faith, shield me from sorrow From fear of tomorrow Help me faith Help me faith, shield me from sadness From worry and madness Lead me to the bliss

And when I grew old I was riddled with sin Locked my soul in the dark Never let the light in

I crawled towards the gate With little time left I cried, "what have I done?" As I took my last breath

Help me faith Help me faith, shield me from sorrow From fear of tomorrow Help me faith Help me faith, shield me from sadness From worry and madness Lead me to the bliss Lead me to the bliss!"

Next up is a song for Paul's relationship with the Highwaymen Twins, Mickey & Lou, in Old Dusk. One prominent thing about Paul is that he is a certified girldad (although can be flexible with being a better father figure to, say, Ethan than Joseph ever could be, albeit out of manipulation than genuine want), but he is solely a girldad to Silva, even despite their fallout after the events of La Última En Pie (which led to his murder of Persephone, Silva's first daughter, and his own demise at the hands of Silva, albeit he wasn't putting much effort into preventing it). So any parental relationship he forms with anyone else isn't quite as genuine, especially now that he's resurrected and completely under the servitude of his deity, Zachariah, and doing the Orchestrator's bidding. Case in point: Paul adapts to filling the void the Highwaymen Twin's father, Vince, leaves behind after Mickey and Lou killed him to advance their own ambitions over the Highwaymen. Vince became a "problem" to Mickey and Lou, most likely being "softer" in his leadership over the Highwaymen which got in the way of the twins own ambitions, meanwhile Paul offers himself as a "problem solver" to them, and since his advice and help guaranteed good tidings to the twins and the Highwaymen, he earned himself a position of power and trust within Mickey and Lou's inner circle. Paul presents himself as someone who is worthy of their respect, by showcasing he can back up his own power and threats; mainly through his skills, physically and verbally, and power he and the twins "work together" to keep hidden from the other underbosses of the Highwaymen, especially with the convenient cover of Paul being a physically disabled man, which would get the other underbosses in Mickey and Lou's court to disregard him (after all, what's an often wheelchair-bound, chronically-in-pain man in his mid-fifties gonna do to a bunch of hardened road-traveling marauders? A LOT, HE CAN DO A LOT, HIS GO-TO-METHOD OF HANDING OUT DEATH IS DECAPITATION FOR GODS' SAKE-!), a position he's more than happy with since it keeps him out of the public spotlight (and therefore out of everybody's attention when he's doing supernatural shit). Paul also appeals to Mickey's violence and sadism, often backing her methods up with a logical lens as well as a personal one; he and Mickey do share brutal violence as part of their life. Such a relationship is insincere from Paul's side though; he genuinely can't view either of the twins as a daughter, nor even as a replacement to Silva, the twins violence being abhorrent and unjustified to him notwithstanding. He can't stop himself from comparing them to Silva, and that idealization prevents him from allowing any potential of another parent/child relationship like that again. Not to mention he's entrapped in his own self-loathing suffering, as well as the suffering that comes with being in service to a deity who basically forces him to harm himself for its entertainment (whom also resurrected him as a conscious hivemind of man-eating wasps that are eternally hungry for human flesh), so any relationship for Paul at this point in his life in Old Dusk is out of the question in general.

"If you wanna be evil and awful and free Then you should thank your lucky star That you were born the girl you are The daughter of an evilicious queen Like me!"

And the last song is for Arcane Urias and Discord, the Mad Kin of Carnage's cooperation throughout my Fallout WIP series called A Radioactive Calamity of Love, Bombs & Gore. Urias discovers some remnants of Discord's crystal heart in What Happened To Vault Numbered 76? and manages to recover some essence of Discord, allowing both Displacement and Kin to come into contact with one another. Urias shares his disdain and disappointment in the regressive evolution of humanity and wishes to get rid of it entirely, while Discord offers an accord; resurrect him into his body, and the Mad Kin will grant Urias a shard of his decaying power to add to his own in order to destroy the very world of Fallout, to which Urias agrees and goes off in search of the remaining shards of Discord's shattered heart (of which Urias has fixed up into an amulet), before deciding to utilize the use of a group that can help with locating and obtaining said shards; which Urias, along with his apprentice, Aggravor, will found as the Occult, a movement that desires to preserve the Old Magic that was lost to humanity's overstaying presence (especially with their hyperfixation on technology) and bring back the former powers that predated humanity; aka the Kin. This is, however, entirely a ruse set up by Urias and Discord, to better justify to the underlings why they're bringing back a deranged Kin.

Here's an OC Meme Template of the Omniscient Rule gang (and honorary members) which relates a little bit to Pride Month because of course:

From left to right, top to bottom are the following OCs:

Jeff Hopper, an amateur private detective who is the brother of Jim Hopper, is actually Pansexual, though he has a big fat gay crush on a long-time widower, Leslie Who.

Rick Thompson, leader of Team Beta in the Omniscient Rule, is Bisexual in a (Bi4Bi) relationship with Allyson "Alice" Darling.

Lillian "Lena" Elliot, former Fazbear Pizzeria Night Guard turned member of the Omniscient Rule, Lena is lesbian in a relationship with Cassandra Darling.

Calvin Dearing, a former cartoonist from the 1930s who is now a dream spirit, helped take care of Joaquin alongside Mario & Lisa before the events of The Perfect Storm saga kicked off. Calvin's sexuality is officially Demisexual, and homoromantic. Calvin technically isn't a member of the Omniscient Rule since he died before its conception, but he is still considered and honored as one of its inspiration/founders.

Allyson "Alice" Darling, the eldest daughter of the Darling Family whom run Darling Enterprises, abandons her parent's crushing expectation on her to join the Omniscient Rule as their intelligence and dispatch. She is in a happy (Bi4Bi) relationship with Rick Thompson.

Eleanor, a former Knight of the Light (or rather, the Beacon of Light, Agnes, the sixth-borne Eldritch), after her master's death at the end of The Perfect Storm saga, Eleanor joined the Time Guard full time, and co-leads it with Timekeeper (and later, H.O.S.T). The Time Guard is on good terms with the Omniscient Rule (unlike the Time Bureau Authority), and often help them out. Eleanor's sexuality isn't necessarily focused on, but due to her attraction to Maru, she is queer.

Fizzer Pop, a former animatronic entertainer (from both Hell and then repurposed for the Dark Circus in the mortal realm), is now an official member of the Omniscient Rule who basically saved the day during The Omniscient Rule: Dark Omen. Fizzer Pop is explicitly queer and gender non-conforming, but holds no specific label.

Mario Emmet, a shapeshifting extraterrestrial known as "Deadlights", he had helped Lisa & Calvin take care of Joaquin before the events of The Perfect Storm. Mario is bisexual in a polyamorous relationship with Charlie Emily (fellow bisexual) and Elizabeth Afton (pansexual).

Cassandra Darling, local mechanic and now a caretaker of a foster shelter for Shiners and other gifted children alongside her alternate universe variant Malcrum Darling, is lesbian and a transgender woman.

The next morning, Captain gets up from their nasty fall caused by the twins. They slowly and painfully go up the stairs to the same room where all that shit happened. Finding Paige and Kate still cuffed on the floor with the blood from Thomas and Barbara. 

Not long later, perhaps a day or two later, Carmina gets intel that the twins are running some demolition derby at The Meat Grinder. The winner gets to have a dinner celebration with the twins.

Paige and Kate think this would be a great opportunity to send those little bitches a message about hitting their home, and trying to break them apart. Killing their godmother.

They ain’t gonna take it, they’re gonna get some shit on those little cunts. Of course they sent their kids out to “spy” on them, and surprise attack them, or at least sabotage them to embarrassment. 

Cristina, Jeff, Tom, Bianca and Daenerys, the usual group. Set out on their spy, and sabotage mission along with the help of the Security Captain who was recently ambushed by the Highwaymen and the twins.

As they're preparing, Paige approaches her kids, “I don’t want to put you all on the frontlines of this shit, but I know putting an end to them is what you all want”. She moves her eldest to the side to talk to her, “I know you and Barb were close” she tells her. “I remember there was a quote from an old, well not necessarily old, but there was a quote the main character said, and it stuck with me forever. Revenge is a fool’s game. Vengeance isn’t always the answer”.

“So, you’re saying we shouldn’t go after them? After everything they’ve done?” Cris asks her mother. 

“No, you should, this is Barbara’s and Rush’s redemption. Barb would’ve wanted us to avenge her death” she tells her.  Killing Garrett Barnes, and holding Thomas Rush hostage, saving him, and only for the twins to kill him in front of Cap. Gina Guerra, who is an ex Highwaymen, and hates the twins. Helps them in on their sabotage game. 

“I told the twins I wanted them to keep my baby out of their shit, and they didn’t listen” Gina tells the kids, “Now this shit is personal”.

“Don’t worry Gina. We’re gonna take care of them.” Cristina tells her.

“Children listen” Cap tells them, they all turn to face them, “If we’re gonna get those twins. We’re gonna do it my way”.

Cristina scoffs, “Okay Cap, how are we gonna get them back? What’s the plan?!”. 

They roll their eyes at the smartass Winchester, “We have Gina. If anyone knows anything about the twins. It’s her”. 

They plan on going to the Meat Grinder, and since Cap has their issues with the twins. They agreed to help out the Winchester family as well.

“So what we’re gonna do. We’re gonna stake out the joint, and see if the twins are really there” they tell the kids.

“Or!.” Cristina tells them, “Or we can go to Irwin Smalls. Since he’s the twins right hand man, or so he calls himself”.

“Isn’t he a Highwayman?!?” they ask.

“Yeah. He’s a high ranking member but he is also not well respected because he is known to betray his allies, and constantly argue with the twins. So it’s safe to say he’s good in my book” Cristina tells them. 

“How can we even trust this Irwin dude?!?” they ask.

“My mom has gotten shit from him before on the twins” Thomas tells Cap, “Not only our family, but the Rye’s, and pretty much everyone that lives in Prosperity knows something about the twins from Irwin”.

Captain sighs, “Okay. Okay fine we’ll go to this Irwin Smalls guy. But I swear if he turns on us, and tells the twins about us sabotaging them. I swear I will-”. 

They aren’t able to complete their threat because the eldest Winchester steps in. “Do what Cap?’ she snaps, “Kill us?. Hurt us? Turn us over to the twins?. Because if you do that, you’re gonna be in deep shit with our family, and they’ll come after your ass”.

They don’t say anything because she’s right. Her parents, their family will hunt them down. It’s best to keep their mouths shut. They go to see Irwin, and he gives them the info about the race at the Meat Grinder, as well as some fight club at the Bonecrusher pit, and of course he suggests that the Captain should participate in the race, win and take out the twins. 

It should be easy right?!. Thinking they should bring Carmina Rye with them since they need someone who was actually responsible to have their back. Not that they didn’t think the Winchester kids weren’t responsible, but they’re too hot headed, and they seem to turn on those who weren’t family, or sided with them.

Despite they all want the same fucking thing. Taking out those damn twins. That night, midnight, Cap put on a Highwayman biker suit, kept the helmet on the whole time. They were able to win that brutal race. Killing the "Warden" of the Bullet Farm, some dude named Frank, kinda easy to kill, for Cap at least it was. He was suppose to take part of the derby, and well, not anymore, thanks to them.

Thanks to Irwin, for getting them a suit, and a ride for the derby. Fire, explosions and bullets. Goddamn that shit was fucking brutal.

Loud, but also fun to watch some sad stragglers kill each other just to sit down, and eat a meal with the twins. Kinda sad, but they end up losing a limb or two, so there’s that.

The kids watch this whole thing from the outside. Keeping themselves hidden. Hiding inside a broke down old school bus that is now one with the ground.  

“Well at least they had the sense to bring Carmina along” Cristina whispers to Bianca as they all watch this “Demolition Derby Battle to the Death”. 

A dude over the PA system hyping up the drivers and getting rowdy. 

As the chaos goes on, Tommy turns to Dany, and says “Hey since Cap is killing some HWM, and everyone is pretty much occupied with the derby and killing each other. You should work up your trickster games, and find out where the twins are hiding out”.

She nods in agreement, “Yeah, yeah that sounds like a great idea” she ties her hair in a ponytail, and puts her jacket hood up, “I’ll be right back”.

She leaves to find a way into the joint, stealth mode style, while the others stay behind and keep an eye on the derby. She runs to the side of the arena, and finds a tower with a ladder going up, when she gets to the top of the ladder, she sees a Highwayman with his back to her. 

She pulls out her hunting knife, and stealth kills him. Stabbing him in the throat. She looks around, watching the cars passing each other, gunfire and explosions. A place that is not meant for a teenager. Looking for a way into the smaller building in the middle of the track. 

“Come on, come on. There has to be a way in” she says to herself.

The others see her kill the dude, no one can see since everyone is preoccupied with the murder derby.

“Shit Dany just killed a dude” Cristina whispers to the others. 

She runs around to the other side of Meat Grinder, hiding behind the giant “YES” sign, and a giant cheeseburger.

She sees an entrance in the smaller building. “The twins might be in there” she says to herself. She squeezes herself between the gaps in the fence.

Looking out for any fast moving vehicles, and semi trucks. 

She carefully walks along the sides of the dirt race track. A fence in the small building in the middle, she can easily squeeze herself through.

When the last vehicle, a giant semi truck passes, she dashes across the track, jumps onto the tires, and climbs over the chain link fence. Dropping onto some pieces of metal, bins and tires.

A few Highwaymen hear the loud metal drop. “Did you hear that?!” one asks the other.

“Yeah I think it was over there” the other answers. 

Dany jumps into a broken down car to hide in. Footsteps approach where she dropped down from.

“I know it was over here” HWM says to the other, “It came from over here!”.

The other one scoffs, “Yeah sure. Let’s go, Mickey and Lou are inside waiting for the derby winner to go in”.

She can see their feet, peeking up and sees their helmet covered faces. 

They walk away, and go inside the small room in the graffitied building.

Back on the outside, Cristina, Bianca, Jeff, Tommy and Carmina watch the race, and Cap was able to pull it off, and win the race.

“Shit, I didn’t think they were gonna make it” Bianca says to the others.

“Yeah me neither” Jeff replies. 

“Looks like Cap is going inside the middle building” Carmina says.

“I think Daenerys snuck in there” Cristina adds.  

Irwin was praising Captain for winning the derby. The plan was for Cap to win the derby, get to the dinner celebration and take out the twins, and all the Highwaymen there. Simple plan.

Dany was able to find an open between the walls. Walking between the metal walls of the place. 

On the other side, she hears two muffled voices, female and from what she can hear it sounds like they're arguing, or probably having some sort of disagreement. 

When she gets closer, she’s able to look through a small opening between the metal panels, and sees the twins.

Mickey and Lou, having an argument.

“I told you Lou, I have the final say!” Mickey argues.

“You always fucking do this!!” Lou spits back, “I don’t care, if daddy wanted it go this way”.

“He’s dead!. I have the final say. Not the both of us. Only one of us!” Mickey says back. 

“Whatever. The old man is dead, we run this motherfucker!” she says back, “Not just you, both of us!”.

“Fuck it, the winner is coming in” Mickey says.

The arguments between the two sisters reminds Dany of when Cris and Jeff argue. The ol' 'I'm the oldest' this, 'I have the final say' that.

A few moments later the metal doors open, and Cap walks in.

“Cap?” Dany whispers. Lou, and a few other HWM sitting at the table, laughing and talking. 

“Hey, I know you” Lou says, pointing to Cap, “Derby winner. Man, you put on a show”.

Laughter, and rambling from everyone at the table. 

“Thank you all for being here!” Mickey says out loud as she walks into the room, “Come along way for some of you. Fun as this is, we can’t stay long”.

Everyone murmurs to each other in, and groan in annoyance. “Been some new development. Got a proposition for you all” she says.

Daenerys tilts her head in confusion as Mickey says this. Moving along between the metal walls, trying to get a better view of the dinner celebration.

“Come on it!!”.

A man, dressed like he belongs in the Paleolithic era walks into the room.

They all laugh, “Who the fuck is he” one of the male HWM asks.

“He is our numero uno problem solver” Mickey says.

“He’s gonna take us up north, and hook us up with some crazy. What the fuck is it? Fruit?” Lou says. 

“A sacred fruit. The miracle of New Eden” he says.

The elder twin speaks up, “Yeah, that’s it. Our boy says that fruit will give you strength like you can’t fucking believe. And, for the right price, we’re willing to share with y'all”.

“New Edener?” Dany whispers, “Sacred fruit?”.

“What the fuck are you talking about?” one of them speaks up, “We’re the strongest already”.

“Damn straight!” another one says.

“For real” Lou says, “I’ve seen it”.

“You hear yourself? Sacred fruit. Un-fucking-believeable”. 

“You’re going soft in your head like you pops?”.

They all start to laugh like a bunch of goddamn hyenas. Lou breaks a plate on the table, uses the broken piece and stabs the dude in the neck. Making everybody go silent. Mickey smirks at all this. 

“Any other observations?” she asks, the dudes head dropa onto the table. 

“What the fuck?!” Dany whispers in shock. 

The New Edener speaks up, “I will give you the sacred fruit only if you do as we agree. I want you to burn New Eden to the ground”.

“A deal is a deal, man. We’re reliable” the youngest twin says.

“Now” he orders, they all glare at him “We must do it now”.

“Come the fuck on” Lou says, getting up from her chair, “Man, we’re gonna burn this motherfucking shit to the ground”.

Mickey, Lou and the New Edener leave the room.

“Magic fruit that makes you powerful? Bullshit” a HWM says to Captain, laughing at the bullshittery of this so called magical fruit.

Captain stands up, walks towards the open door, leaves and immediately comes back in. Guns blazing.

Daenerys moves forward between the walls to find a way out of this gun fight before she gets hit from behind the walls. Back on the outside, the other kids see all this. Alarms going off. 

“Shit, I think they found Captain out” Cris mutters. "You think they did?." Carmina asks her. "I'm sure of it." she responds.

They all rush the place, killing HWM in the process, looking for Daenerys and Captain. 

They run towards the now slowly opening garage, and see Cap getting into a vehicle, they see the group of teenagers. “Get it!!!” they yell. Without a 2nd thought or hesitation they all get into the vehicle, except Cristina.

“We need to find Daenerys!!” she yells, reminding the others about the youngest and smallest Winchester. 

After she says this, Little Trickster herself jumps down from a vent in the ceiling.

“I’m here, and I got some interesting info” she tells them.

“Me too!.” Cap shouts, “Now get it!!”. 

Yet another long journey from Joseph’s sanctuary to the New Eden compound. Not wanting to sit in silence this whole journey. The Father sat across from the two girls on the boat. 

“I’ve seen you before” Daenerys says to Joseph, “When I was 6”.

“I know my child” he responds almost immediately. Surprising both of them. 

“So you remember me?” she asks. 

“Yes. You are from the Winchester family. Both of you” he says, “I remember both of you”. 

“So you know our family?!” Cristina asks him. Slightly nodding his head, “Yes. I know your family. We were enemies at one point in time”. 

Both of them don’t say anything else until they get to the compound even up until then, neither of them say any other words to Joseph. They follow behind as Ethan gives a speech about him and how they should move on, forgetting about Joseph. 

They stay back while Captain goes with him. 

“Our future depends on adherence to my strictures. We can no longer hope for Joseph to save us. He is not coming back. We must put him out of our minds and…” Ethan trails off as he sees Joseph. Walking through the small crowd of followers. 

You can see alarms going off in his head, everyone turns and sees The Father. Hope and joy in the eyes of all of them. 

“Where have you been?” Ethan asks Joseph, “Our land is under siege. Our land is threatened. You disappeared. You left us when we needed you. Why?!”. 

As they talk, go back and forth with each other, Cristina and Daenerys step away from the compound. 

“Well now that we have New Eden on our side, we should get going” Cristina tells her. 

Nodding, “Yeah I think we should”. They tell Captain that they’re leaving, and they take a boat back to the mainland and return home to the compound.  

Upon returning home, they are greeted by their parents. 

“Oh finally!” Kate sighs, relieved that her only daughter is home from her dangerous journey. Gabriel follows not far behind her. Paige and Kenneth along with the Triplets go to Cristina, and everyone else. 

“Are you okay??” Paige asks her eldest daughter. 

Nodding, “I’m fine. We had no trouble” she responds. 

A few hours later, the kids are sitting outside on the 2nd floor front balcony. 

“What happened on your trip??” Jeffrey asks his elder sister and cousin. 

“We found Joseph” Cristina answers, “He was out in the mountains. Hiding out”. 

“That wasn’t the weird part, but how we found his word. Well it was actually Captain that found it, it’s a book, a bible like book. I didn’t get to read it but that's what it looked like to me” Daenerys tells them. 

“What’s he like?” Bianca asks them, “Joseph Seed. What’s he like??”. 

They pause for a moment, trying to find the correct words. Cristina then says, “He’s difficult to describe. From what our parents have told us, he seems a lot different from what they’ve told us about him”. 

“But from what they said about him to us. That was almost 20 years ago. People tend to change over the years” Thomas tells them. 

“Apparently he has a son” Daenerys tells them, “His name is Ethan, but I don’t think he’s a blood relative to Joseph”.

“What makes you say that??” Bianca asks, curious. 

“I don’t know. He doesn’t look like Joseph, he doesn’t have any resemblance to him. Yeah I know, he has a mom and he probably looks like her, but I just have this feeling that Ethan isn’t really Joseph’s”. 

A few moments of silence have passed, they sit in silence and watch the sun slowly set behind the mountains. From outside, down on the ground level from the 2nd house. 

The Angels, Michael, Raphael, Gabriel, Castiel, Gadreel, Uriel and as well as Lucifer watch the 5 teenagers, the 2nd Archangel not really paying any attention to the 5 teenage humans, or to anything at all for that matter.  

“Are you sure she has powers??” Gabriel asks Michael. 

“I’m sure” he responds, “I know she does. I can feel some angelic grace radiating off of her”. 

“Are you sure Michael?” Castiel immediately asks his older brother, “I don’t sense anything from her. Even from where I’m standing”.  

“I’m sure Castiel. I know for a fact. She is dangerous, she may have very little control and knowledge about the powers she possesses”.

“But will she be able to use them??” Gabriel inquires, “What if she discovers them accidentally?!?. She’ll freak out, panic. I know she will”. 

“Only time will tell” the eldest Archangel responds, but the response isn’t good enough to Gabe.

Daenerys is a 16 year old human, her having the powers, and the strength of an Archangel would be incredible, but is also very dangerous. Her being the first human in the history of humanity to inherit the powers of an celestial being. 

Coming from two full humans, her mother Kate Winchester, and her deceased father John Seed. Being born after her birth father’s death, and not knowing of his existence. Not knowing that Joseph Seed is her uncle by birth, and by blood. That being the reason why she doubts Ethan is actually Joseph’s son. 

Not long after, Paige gets a radio call from Captain telling her that Thomas Rush was taken by the Highwaymen, and was being kept hostage by the twins. Shortly after they get that information, their godmother, Barbara was taken by them as well being held hostage. 

“They took him. They took Rush” Paige mutters, fear and panic in her voice. 

“What?! Where is he??” Kate asks.

“I don’t-” she gets cut off when she gets a radio call from a familiar voice. A familiar, annoying and bitchy voice. The voice of Mickey.

“Listen up Losechesters. We have yo’ granny, and Rush. We fuckin’ warned you. We warned you, Rush and your Captain not to fuck with us, and ya’ll will now pay the fuckin’ price”. 

Just hearing her voice makes Paige’s blood boil, and skin crawl, “When we get there. You and your wonder twin sister are fucking dead” she growls into the radio. 

Both twins laugh at her response, “We’ll see about that!”. Dead silence, static on the other end. 

“Kenneth you and everyone else stay here!” Paige tells her husband. 

“Where are you going?! What happened?!” he asks, oblivious to what’s going on.

“Those fuckin’ twins took Rush and Barbara” Kate mubles angrily while getting into their now beaten up, and old Monte Carlo that somehow survived the impact of the collapse. 

“C’mon we need to get them back” the elder Winchester sister says, while starting up the car, and speeding down the dirt road towards the Green-Busch fertilizer plant. 

Captain follows closely behind them in hopes to bring Thomas back alive, while Paige and Kate have the same priority they also need to get Barbara back with their family. 

She was the one that raised them when they were taken away from their mother all those years ago. She took care of them, checked up on them, she’s pretty a 2nd mother to them. A close, long time family friend, their adopted mother, aunt. Whichever she’s family to them, and that's all that matters to them. Family doesn't end in blood. 

“What happened? What’s going on?” Daenerys asks the other 4. 

“The twins got Rush and aunt Barbara” Thomas tells her. 

“Oh no” she mutters. 

They arrive at the plant, speeding, and making sharp turns the whole way. Once arriving, Lou’s voice plays over the intercom. “If you want Rush back, you have exactly 3 minutes, but also we have some of your people locked inside the silos with explosives, and once the timer is out, they’re as good as dead. Tick fuckin’ tock!”.

“Shit, Kate, Paige you guys save the people in the silos and I’ll look for Thomas” Captain tells them. 

They all move quickly to save the people, all while getting shot at by Highwaymen. 5 people in different locations, Kate is able to disarm a few of them, and free them before they were killed.

Paige fends off the advancing Highwaymen so that Captain could get to Rush, all while keeping their cover from their bullets. 

Captain bursts through the door, and sees Thomas with his arms tied behind his back. Mickey standing by a window. 

“Captain? What’re you doing here?!? Get outta here, now!” he tells them. 

  “This feels really familiar” Mickey says, “Like we’ve been here before”. 

Lou steps to the room, staring at them and Cap becomes very defensive, one move and this could all go bad real quick. 

“Relax” Mickey continues, “Stay awhile” while motioning to some chains and cuffs hanging from the ceiling. 

Telling Cap to hang themselves by the wrists, while they tortured Thomas in front of them?. Probably, Captain resisted, but with a possible chance of death they cuffed themselves. 

“Look at that?! See how easy you can be to get along with if you just listened!. I wanted you to understand that, I wanted to get that everything could have ended differently if you left, went away. But instead you chose to be a huge fuckin problem!”. 

Mickey steps outta the way, while Lou takes a double barrel shotgun and blows Thomas Rush’s head off his shoulders. Blood pouring out where his head once was, gushing all over the dirty, graffitied concrete floor. 

“Thomas!” they exclaim, regretting putting the cuffs on in the first place. 

Lou comes at them with her pink helmet in hand, “And when we tried to reason with you over, and over!. You wanted to make something that it's never gonna be!”. Striking them with her helmet several times. 

Paige and Kate head upstairs to the gun sound and loud banging. 

“Captain?!” Paige calls out. The twins hear this, “Oh? You brought friends! How nice” Lou tells them. 

Both sisters kicked down the door, and immediately get blindsided by the twins. Lou hitting Kate with her helmet and Mickey striking Paige on the head with the shotgun butt. Cuffing their hands behind their backs, leaving both Winchester sisters blooded, and bruised. 

“Well since you two decided to show up!” Mickey tells them, “Another pain in our asses. We got someone who belongs to you”.

Lou comes back into the room with Barbara, her face all beaten and bloody. The weak, and barely alive but holding on to dear life, 70 year old woman. Pressing her foot on her back.

“Barbara!” Kate whinces out, blood dripping from her mouth.  

“So sweet of you to come all this way for your granny” Mickey tells them, “Other than your fancy friend here with their fancy train and fancy people. Your family has been another problem to us. You hit us, we hit you back… harder”. 

Without hesitation or even a few second pause. Lou hammers down on Barbara’s head with the same helmet she used on Captain.

“No!” Paige screams. “Stop! Please!” Kate screams out as well. 

Lou stops beating her for a brief moment that doesn’t last even a second before striking her once more that kills her, “I’m gonna fuckin’ kill you!” Paige mutters angrily, trying to get out of her restraints. 

“Barbara!” they both cry out.
