Another flash, Melissa again found herself someplace else. It seemed like the set of a sci-fi movie...everything was white and clean. But as she looked down at herself, she didn't sppear any older. She was wearing an elaborate white gown...again, something out of a sci-fi movie almost.
She stood up and noticed the massive throne she had just sat at...as she approached one of the many mirrors her gown's train dragged on the floor. She saw her face made up to fit the white surroundings. Her face was pale, her lips only had a slight tinge of color.
Two very old women entered the room...but Jon recognized them instantly. One was Karyn and the other was his sister, Zoe.
Zoe spoke first, "You can't trust them, Jon! You can't! They're fucking bastards..."
'Still the same Zoe,' thought Jon/Melissa.
"Calm down," spoke Karyn, "Jon, there's something they're not telling you..."
"Who?"
"Your gradfather and Sarah..."
