You can do what you want just seize the day
What you're doing tomorrow's gonna come your way
Don't you ever consider givin' up, you will find, oooh

It's a beautiful life, oh oh ooo
It's a beautiful life, oh oh ooo
It's a beautiful life, oh oh ooo
I just wanna be here beside you
stay until the break of dawn

The chill of the desert air ruffled the bushes on the twin graves and caused the two standing nearby to drawn their light hoodies closer as they watched. to the casual observer the twin girls were Identical...but to those who came near the battle weary stance of the one with the ring and the quiet contemplative look of the other marked them as night and day...or by their choice Ebony and Ivory. 30 years to the day the two inhabitants of the graves had left the twins alone and unsure in a world of evil and chaos unready though they knew their destiny. They had each gone their separate ways and worked to become what their parents had wanted them to become...and here they stood decades later each as representatives of their orders.

Take a walk in the park when you feel down
There's so many things there
that's gonna lift you up
See the nature in bloom a laughing child
Such a dream, oooh

It's a beautiful life, oh oh ooo
It's a beautiful life, oh oh ooo
It's a beautiful life, oh oh ooo
I just wanna be here beside you
I just wanna be here beside you
stay until the break of dawn

It wasn't till Dawn broke over the sand that they thyrsus moved from their vigil nearly collapsing in a pile as their muscles complained about the sudden use. With a bemused look Ebony helped her sister to her feet again and together they made their way back to the house and the waiting lunch as well as Ebony's waiting family. This had been the children's first trip to visit the graves of their grandparents...thought they had been to spend time even summers with her family the time had never seemed right. The only reason she brought them this time was because of her oldest, at 18 he was the first of the family to awaken to a tower outside of the primal wild and she wished to speak to the elders as well as bring him for instructions in his family's heritage. Thus far by mutual agreement she and cedric had kept them unaware of the nature of the world beyond as they were unsure of if all would awaken or even become walkers or if they would stay asleep for their life’s blessedly avoiding the dangers of the world.

You're looking for somewhere to belong
You're standing all alone
For someone to guide you on your way
Now and Forever

It's a beautiful life, oh oh ooo
It's a beautiful life, oh oh ooo
It's a beautiful life, oh oh ooo
I just wanna be anybody

The return flight to the states was quiet and uneventful...the plane her grandfather provided had sleeping compartments which currently housed the twin boys who had promptly fallen fast asleep after a long day playing with the cubs at the center. With a yawn she curled up against her husband's chest and glanced up at him murmuring sleepily "thank you" before drifting off to sleep.

Living in different ways
It's a beautiful life
I'm gonna take you to a place I've never been
before oh yeah
It's a beautiful life
I'm gonna take you in my arms and fly away
with you tonight

The sensation of someone setting on the couch beside her drew her from the deep slumber to blink sleepily up at whoever would dare intrude and wake her up ready to kick a feline off of the couch. at her confused sleepy blink he chucked and leaned down to kiss her forehead "Thank you for what love?" she furrowed her eyes at him "what do you mean?" he smirked slightly earning him a sleepy glower which only caused him to chuckle more "when I came in you murmured thank you to someone...and as the kid is asleep..." Finally the dream came back to her in vivid detail and caused her to smile curling up closer to him "Just thank you...for making my life Beautiful"

It's a beautiful life, oh oh ooo
It's a beautiful life, oh oh ooo

It's a beautiful life, oh oh ooo
It's a beautiful life, oh oh ooo
It's a beautiful life, oh oh ooo
It's a beautiful life
