Epilogue

A last "hiya" to all of you out there.

When one story ends, another begins. Saying "goodbye" to a part of your life means welcoming a new one simultaneously.

The world as Rachel knew it, has come to an end.

What will her future hold? What will yours hold?

Are you scared of things ending?
Don't be. What lies beyond may be strange and a lot to handle, but it may also lead to the one place you're supposed to be and outshine your wildest dreams. Don't let your fears hold you back.

However, although this is goodbye, it'll always be a part of you, cause you've been here.

All the best.

Final Chapter

Hello.

Our journey ends today. You did see it coming, didn't you?

There comes a time in everyone's life when they will be challenged, facing hardships, despairing about the where and how and whens. I can promise you, there will also come the day the trial is done and whatever the outcome - it will be the end of an important chapter in your development.

They say the first steps of a journey are the hardest. I say the final steps are just as tricky. What do you think? Will Rachel take those final steps or is she gonna fail and fall apart?
Listen to the end.

Love always,

Wendy

Chapter 21

Heya,

you're still around. I'm glad you came onto this journey with me so far. It's just a little bit further till the end.

They say when you seek the truth you won't ever have to look far, cause it's going to find you first. This pretty much applies to Rachel.
Now that she knows, now that she sees the pieces for what they are - what to do?

Enjoy today's chapter. You can find it here.

Chapter 20

Good morning, everyone.

Feeling a little tired this monday morning? Or are you well rested, having slept sufficiently, now ready to battle whatever challenges the new week is about to provide?

Fatigue is a powerful enemy. It weakens all of your senses and clouds not only your vision but also your judgement. Rachel is overtired and walking the edge to a physical breakdown, but the odds keep on pushing. What she finds when she finally succumbs to exhaustion was never intended to be found.

See what it is by listening to today's chapter.

Chapter 19

Hello everyone,

May already! It's been so many months since Fifth Child went online. Amazing how time flies by.

Has this story been with you since it started?
Sometimes stories can stay with you for a long time after you've heard them. Sometimes they make you cry, sometimes they have the power to make you happy. Or even change your life.

For Rachel, the quality of a story will decide about her life. Is her story convincing enough to save her for now, or will she be eliminated?

Chapter 18

Still sticking around, are you?
Thank you for that. I extremely appreciate it. It's soothing to know someone out there listens and cares about what you do.

We do what we do because we wish it and I am no exception. Doing the things I do does make me happy, but to have somebody out there listening and watching is amazing. Thank you, once more, for, in your own way, being a part of this.

Letting go of someone you love can be harder than anything you ever had to face before and it is exactly what Rachel is about to do. Could you put someone else's happiness before your own? Feel free to share your thoughts with me in the comments and make sure to see how the story continues.

Chapter 17

Hello everyone.

It is April, official spring-time, but weather here has us feeling like winter, still.
Personally, I am very much looking forward to warmer days and flowers blossoming. What is your favorite time of the year? Do you love the snow or will it be the beach for you?

Being the Fifth, Rachel wonders what has happened to the Four Children that came before her, although it is clear that they most likely did not find a peaceful ending to their days.
As she realizes what Nobu has gone through, she makes the hardest of choices.

Find out all the details in today's chapter.

Chapter 16

Hello there,

monday morning it is, once more. The weekend has ended and when something ends, you can either dread it or welcome the start of the period that is about to follow.

As Nobu is gone, Rachel is devastated and anything but welcoming towards this turn of events. When she overhears a conversation of her superiors, though, a lot of things finally make sense.

Does the truth make her free or lonely?

See for yourself by listening to today's chapter.

Chapter 15

Good morning, everybody.

Spring is in the air and suddenly the world seems to be full of happy couples.
Do you enjoy being close to someone else or are you rather moving in your own way, independent and freely?
Maybe neither is the case and you're a fan of balance. Or havent found someone yet.

Rachel has found someone - or was found, that is - and would very much like to melt all the barriers that are bound to separate two human beings from one another.

Will she succeed?

Chapter 14

Happy monday to everyone of you. In case mondays can ever really be happy.

So Valentine's Day has come and gone. Is it like any other day for you or do you host Anti-Valentine's-shindigs cause the shmaltzy bullshit pisses you off?
Or maybe you're one of those that actually enjoy some lovey-dovey time with their other half.
Rachel finds that falling in love changes her focus significantly. If for better or worse, you decide.

Give today's episode a listen.

Chapter 13

Hello there,

every now and then, all of us feel like taking a break from reality. Escaping into a world far off from all the things going on outside, away from all hardships and the turmoil. If you swim out to far though, you can get lost and might never come back, caught up in this little world inside of you. Rachel'd have preferred to stay in the void forevermore, but she can't.

What she finds at her return could not have been more of a surprise.
To find out what it is that awaits her, you merely need to click here and listen.

Chapter 12

Nice to see you again on here.

Feeling comfortable yet in 2013? I bet you do, cause after all, not too much has changed, now, has it. Are your resolutions falling apart already or do you hold on to them well? Maybe you quit smoking or started working out or have chosen to treat others more kindly. How's that coming along?

Whatever it is that happens in your life, it is always a relief to have a friend by your side who can acknowledge what you're going through and who will share what happens with you. Rachel has found a friend at school, but things are falling apart once more.

Find out for yourself what happens by listening to today's chapter.

Chapter 11

Welcome to 2013.

Have you already put 2012 behind you, focusing on what's to come or are you reflecting on the year that has passed and about what has gone wrong or right for you?
Are you content with your life and how things are going or have you made resolutions as to what it is you'd like to see change over the next twelve months?

Changes from her everyday-routine are quite welcome to Rachel as she starts going to a regular school again.
Also, many things seem to make a lot more sense as she figures out the difference between herself and Nobu.

All you need to find is, as always, to be found here.
