Again it had proved to be another interesting day for the AwesomeSauce. First she had met up with Barthalomew in the Inn. Toby was there and said there was food. So while shoveling down a plate piled high with pasta Barthalomew introduced her to Yuki. A boy that looked strangely like Barthalomew but it had to be a mere coincidence. Her friend claimed he was like a brother to her and the poor boy was deaf. Communicating with telepathy Barthalomew and Yuki decided the Glen would be a good place to visit for Yuki to place. And so Darcy tagged along.

Once at the Glen it was nice to sit down and enjoy Barthalomew's company while watching Yuki play. Barthalomew then asked Darcy if Yuki could stay at the Lair and of course she couldn't say no. Seeing Barthalomew happy really made her day and she was glad she could help out others. However the peaceful moment was cut short when she heard something tearing through the woods and coming into their area. She was shocked to see it was her own mother!

Her mother was hunting and she stood motionless to watch her. Suddenly her mother's hunt was interrupted by a Lich. Darcy would not stand for this. Charging into the fray she shifted into her dragon form to aid her mother. Charging and blowing fire did little to the Lich however he was successful at landing a strike upon her leg. Wounded she stumbled away in pain shifting back into her human form. Needless to say since it had been a while she was nude.

Barthalomew who had also been hurt trying to assist Darcy and her mother came over to aid her. At the moment she didn't notice his blushing as she accepted his assistance. Just then the Lich turned his attention to her and healed her himself. After a few taunting words between the two whilst Barthalomew did all he could to protect Darcy the Lich demanded to know what she was.

It wasn't often that she let down her guard but for the sake of him leaving her mother alone she would. Taking the Lich's hand she would let the layers of the Darcy everyone knew fall away. Her power, her true power, kept stuffed deep inside of her she released it with a mere twitch of a thought. For those that were far away and resistant they might feel a twinge of her power. Those that were near and not so resistant would be knocked back or down by the sheer force of it. What she held inside of her was drowning and would be most pleasurable to the right type and flavor. It was all that power along with her memories she shoved into the Lich forcefully and not gentle either. Satisfied the Lich stepped away and extended an invitation. She accepted it and during the power ride she had became clothed once more. Sucking all of that power within herself she then took off after thanking the Lich for healing her.

Her journey next took her to the Teas 'N Tomes hoping to find Barthalomew there. She was right as he was on the couch informing her he would need to sleep in order to be fully healed. After cleaning and re-dressing his wound with fresh gauze Darcy laid with him on the couch answering his questions as to why she was interested in him. Then the bell jangled on the door signaling another person was in their midst. Lifting her head she saw her own mother enter.

Leaving Barthalomew's side for a moment she joined her mother. Deciding to use telepathy she was finally able to communicate with her mother. Finally able to confirm who had her dear mother captive she was relieved to some point. Her mother making her promise to look after the little ones she fell into slumber.

Once her mother was asleep she was full of emotions. Seeking comfort in Barthalomew's arms as she let out everything she was feeling at once before falling asleep comforted by his warmth and presence on the couch.
