       The Legends

       For a while, she waited for his return, until she waited no
       longer. She began raising her child the way she always wanted
       do, to be a sincere, gentle, and thoughtful man. Ace's absence
       had a great effect on the child, but she did all she possibly
       could to wipe away the negativity from his thoughts. He always
       asked her, "Where is daddy, mom?" She shook her head, with a
       smile on her face, responding with a simple, "He'll come back
       soon, sweetheart." A loud voice echoed through the house,
       "MOOOOOM!" She heavily lifted herself from the edge of the bed,
       slowly walked towards the staircase, looking down from above,
       "Yes, dear?" She heard frantic footsteps that led to Ace Jr.
       looking up at her. It brought a smile to her face, how grown her
       son had become. "I'm hungry!" She was back within the obscurity
       of her memory, reminding her of how beautiful it would have been
       if they had raised this child together, how spectacular it would
       have been if they had went on picnics together, refurnished the
       house together, celebrated all ceremonies together, laughed,
       played, and even cried together. "MAMA!" Swoosh, back again.
       "Yes! Yes, baby!" He sighed in frustration, "I said I'm hungry,"
       he exclaimed. Claire nodded her head, running down the stairs,
       those heavy steps again. "Of course, my sweets. I'll make you
       something in less than a minute." She walked into the kitchen,
       swiftly snatching a croissant, getting some jam and butter, and
       applying them above it. Opening the fridge, she got the orange
       juice, poured it into a small glass, and put the entire meal on
       Jr.'s tray. She hushed the rushing thoughts, her hands shaking
       as usual, and walked on her way to her son.

       A man with jeans and a opened up jacket walked right by the
       sidewalk next to the horse where his family lived.  He stopped
       right in front of it and took a deep breath thinking to himself
       'is this even the right house? ' he shrugged and walked up the
       steps of the house and sighed.  His knees shelling from fear but
       he understood it was time to come back home.  He raised his hand
       with a closed fist,  and with his knuckles he knocked on the
       door 5 times.  He then dropped his hand down by his side and
       jumped up to his toes over and over again waiting anxiously for
       the door to open up by a friendly face.

       Five taps? No way. Startled, Claire's thoughts diverted away
       from the book she was reading. Ages ago, during the times of
       war, Ace had agreed with her that he would knock on the door
       five times so that she can recognize that it was her husband
       waiting outside. Oh how she wished that it would be him, how she
       wished everything would go back to normal and they would raise
       Jr. together the remaining years of their lives till he would
       grow up to be just like his father. Impossible. Back to reality.
       With furrowed brows, she looked to her son, hurriedly nudging
       him as he took another bite of the croissant. "Open the door,
       baby. Be careful though, please." He sighed, getting up and
       putting his dish on the table. "Be careful about what, mom? No
       one has visited us for years!" He got up, put his dish down on
       the table, and sighed his way down the hall. Nearing the door,
       he decided he would not ask who was behind it; he loved
       visitors, probably because they never came anyway. As his hand
       took a grip of the doorknob, and twisted it, Jr. stood there
       alarmed, unable to utter a word at the sight before him.
       "D-Da..Dad?"

       When I heard the for cracked open, I had taken a deep breath and
       held it in.  But when the for opened,  he saw a young boy that
       was startled by the sight of him.  But once the kid had spoken,
       he realized who he was.  How much had he had grown from the last
       time he'd laid eyes upon him.  Ace simply dropped down to one
       knee and looked at his son straight into his eyes.  "Yes,  my
       son. I'm back and her to stay. " he reached out with his hands,
       and pulled him into a warm embrace. Wrapping his arms around his
       body and rating his head on jrs shoulder.  "Is your mother home?
       I wish to see her"

       Junior's arms slowly crippled around his father's, and slowly
       pulled away as well. Before Ace could even ask if his wife was
       here, his son got up, grabbed his father's arm and pulled him
       into the house. Claire would not change anything in the house,
       and so everything was the exact same as Ace left it. "MOM! DAD
       IS HERE!" Ace Jr. exclaimed, running to the living room with his
       father's hand in his. Claire's eyes widened, her hands abruptly
       dropping the book on the couch as her body quickly rose up to
       see if her son was being serious or not. According to Claire,
       there was no way Ace would come back; she had hopes, but they
       were never realistic. However, once she saw her husband right
       before her eyes, she wasn't capable of doing anything other than
       to collapse. "DAD! DO SOMETHING!"

       When claire had walked into the room he had walked in,  his look
       turned serious. But when she collapsed,  he ran off to her  with
       a worried look and carefully held her hand and kissed them "your
       legs always did get weak at the sight of me.  He slid one of his
       arms under her thighs and the other around the back side of her
       neck and lifted her up.  I then carried her to our couch where I
       laid her down with her feet on my lap "yes it is me,  but please
       call me by my real name Elijah.  Ace was simply a nickname I
       used for battle. "

       His voice. No no, that was his voice. It's him. It's really him.
       Claire felt the kisses on her hand, tears of both disbelief and
       joy streaming down her cheeks. Supported by his body, Claire
       rose her hands up to Ace's cheeks, her fingers roaming around
       his face as if she wanted to make sure it was really him. It is.
       It's him! This was beyond true, this was reality. Claire's tears
       continued to fall one after the other, unable to speak because
       of the shock she was in. A small smile crept its way to her
       lips, as she hurriedly embraced him, and enveloped her body
       around his. "Ac-.. Elijah?" For a second there, she was
       confused, but then it all made sense. She knew the truth. She
       knew that there was a million risks behind him having the name
       of Ace. She understood him. She knew him. "I don't give a shit,
       I missed you.. Your son missed you.. We missed you so much..
       Elijah.."

       He smiled at the sight of his family finally being around him.
       He couldn't believe it but he knew it was true.  "It's weird
       being called by my real name. I haven't been called by it since,
       hm birth I think. "He then faced  his son and pinched his
       cheeks "you've grown so big and handsome,  you may just be
       better with the ladies than I was.  To bad I couldn't be around
       since you were taken from me. " he looked at claire with an evil
       glare but then it went away.  "But it was mostly me,  I'm just
       glad to have you both here. "

       "Taken away from you?" Claire inquired quietly as she lightly
       punched Elijah's shoulder, frustrated at the way he glared at
       her. Pushing the thoughts away, Claire properly sat up, gently
       sliding her fingers through her husband's hair. "Are you okay?
       Is it over, Elijah.. all the battles, all the hardships; are
       they over?" She leaned in against him before he could respond,
       raising her head a little bit and placing a small peck on his
       forehead. She had been wishing her husband would be alright for
       yours, she had been wishing he would be alive; she never thought
       he would come back, she had only hoped for it. With a small
       smirk, Claire let her hand fall to the couch as she looked to
       her son. "Ace, bring your dad some water." Claire averted her
       vision from Ace to her man, gently asking, "Are you hungry? Do
       you need anything to eat? Just tell me, whatever you want; I'll
       make you."

       Nods my head yes and holds your hands up to my heart.  "I
       promise you no more battles,  I'm going to stay here with you my
       love,  and our perfect son. " he changed his sight to ace and
       smiled like crazy.  "I love you my son,  be careful in the
       kitchen" I turned back to face my beloved wife  and  I leaned in
       to kiss her lips "no my dear,  I don't need anything other than
       your love and our kid. "
