Magenta hugged Diamond to her, sadness in her eyes. Ruby stood beside her, running her hands over her red hair, smoothing it. Diamond looked her Grandmother in the eyes. "Why are you so sad, Grandmother?" "I'm not sad. With two Granddaughters like you, why would I be sad?" Ruby kissed Magenta on the top of her head. "Gran? You're not a very good liar. I can feel it. Sadness radiates from you like light from a star. Lonliness too." Magenta lowered her head. "I thought that I'd found a man I could spend the rest of my life with. But I now know that he has no love for me. I saw to that with my treatment of my own daughter, Emerald." Ruby kissed her again. "Gran. He does love you. But not in that way. Joshua was an owned man the second he set eyes on Correll Peenk Montal." "And I'm so happy for her. She's been so lonely all her life. It's just that I'm lonely too. there has been no one there for me since Bitty's father died taking Coruscant from the Empire. I'm almost afraid to get out of bed some days, because I know I have no one. And at night, I dread climbing into an empty bed. I miss having someone to just hold me at night." Diamond wiped away the tears that were falling down Magenta's cheeks. "Tell her Ruby." Mama Montal looked up into Ruby's large blue eyes. "Tell me what dear?" Ruby gently put her hands on her shoulders. "After I healed Joshua, the Force gave me a vision of your future." "Mine? You saw something happy I hope." "Very." The tall blonde said with a smile. "I saw Joshua on a ship. A ship unlike any ship I've ever seen. he was talking to a man and woman. He was showing them holos of his new family. When they got to you the man just stood there, speechless. I think he became an owned man. I then saw the two of you here with the entire family. You were both old, and all twenty-three of your children were celebrating your life together." "Does that mean that I have two more after this little one?" she said , running her hand over her abdomen, noticing for the first time that she was starting to show. "Two very tall, handsome sons. They call themselves her bodyguard," Ruby said, putting her hand over Magenta's. "Is he one of Josh's people?" "I think so. They call each other cousin. So I guess they're related." Magenta shook her head. "That's what these super soldiers call any of their own kind who isn't a direct relative like a sister or brother. And their name for themelves is the Family. They're like Correllians and Mandalorians when it comes to family. Multiplied by a factor of ten. They like big families for the most part." "Oh, don't tell Uncle Ulrich, but the woman I saw in the vision? She's going to own him. And give him six children." Magenta smiled. "Good. My eldest son needs to be happy. But why do you call being in love owned?" "That's what Uncle Josh calls it. He says that when you're truly in love, that the other owns your heart and your soul." "I hope all Earthmen are like Josh." "Well technically, I'm a Martian, since I was born on Mars." "Nosey!"
