Rating: PG-13
Warnings: Wibbly wobbly, timey wimey.
Word Count: About 10,000 for Chapter One, a more modest 7300 for Chapter Two.
Spoilers: Potential spoilers (kind of) for all six seasons of LOST, and up to and through Glee 2X09, "Special Education."
Standard-Issue Short-Form Disclaimer: I do not hold copyright to Glee or LOST, I make no claims to such, and I am not profiting from this. The songs referenced in Chapter One are "Catch a Falling Star" and "Blackbird"; in Chapter Two, Ben quotes a line from "Black Coffee."
Summary: Ten years ago, Ben Linus killed several of his own people and left the Island on a stolen submarine, with a child that wasn't really his. He and his son have been running ever since, from one end of the United States to the other. But no one can run forever, not even them. There comes a time when you either give up, or you stand your ground, and you fight.
(In Chapter One: Blaine's first day at his new school goes better than anticipated. In Chapter Two: His second day is when everything starts to fall apart.)
Author's Notes: Back from the dead, and almost certainly not a Smoke Monster! This is a Glee/LOST AU crossover, and it is probably even weirder than it sounds. Because I started this ages ago, the story actually takes place in Season Two, shortly after the introduction of Blaine. Some chapters are Finn-heavy, so if that's still a sore spot for you or if you're concerned about his eventual fate in the story, please PM me or send an ask to my tumblr (same username), and I'll try to ease your mind.
Previous chapters and supplemental materials can be found on
the masterpost I'll be updating every other Tuesday (because I don't currently have internet at home, and I know the library is always open on Tuesdays.) Fic is still a work in progress, but I'm ten chapters in and about to start on eleven, so fingers crossed I won't drop off the face of the Earth again.
