AUTHOR'S NOTES: "When life throws you a lemon, make lemonade." Well, I think I've squashed and squished and twisted the rumours and fears as much as I can to make something I think I could possibly stomach as the end of the show (even though it'll never happen – but that's what dreams and an active imagination are for!) Besides, this is just the *first* of my twisted attempts at writing this storyline – there will be another, hopefully more believable, version..

DEDICATION: Little Miss – I am *so* not as evil as you, and I won't be the only traitor to the cause after tomorrow, hun! ;) Lynn - thanks for your suggestions and support :) Lena – you rock!
