A/N - Again, thanks to Chartreusian.

A brief followup, because calm doesn't exist in the Sanctuary. Also a timeline from Helen's perspective.

Again, if you've got an outtake you want to see, comment and I'd love to write it for you!

Epilogue, immediately after The Last Time

He was almost asleep when the commotion outside grew too noticeable to ignore. His eyes propped open and his teeth emerged, sharp and vicious and half-ready to tear into anything that would disturb Helen's rest.

The door was pushed open, and in walked River's Jack. The too-tall, Hollywood-handsome troublemaker who had been wooing his daughter on and off for three decades.

The man was entirely too much to handle right now, and Nikola wasted no time in trying to hold back his urge to fully transform into a vampire. He held a talon up to his lips, his eyes flicking over to his wife.

Jack put his hands in the pockets of his long coat and rocked back on in heels, a smile on his face as he looked with far too much interest in both Nikola and Helen entwined on the bed. River stomped in after him, followed by Dan, holding the sleeping bundle of his infant son, Nick.

Jack whispered softly, "Look, I know its not a good time, but fluctuations in the time stream never wait for a 'good time' to get ugly. There's some pretty nasty people who just got ahold of Jack the Ripper who got boomeranged into 2898 by the same crazy machine that mucked up the timestream for you lot."

River growled softly, mimicking her vampire father and brother with a lifetime of expertise.

Jack turned to her, "Sorry, babe. I'm not arguing with the positive results to the fate of the world, and me personally, but John Druitt has completely lost his everlovin' mind. The electrical entity within him is threatening the stability of half the Earth's infrastructure, and the death toll is mounting. No one can get close enough to kill him. I've been sent to do something about him, and there's only two people known to be able to control him. Nikola Tesla and Helen Magnus. Both of whom are in another star-system in 2998. So, you interested in helping?"

Nikola narrowed his eyes, digesting the idea that Helen and he would still be alive in nine hundred years, and that they would be exploring the galaxy. John Druitt they could handle, but not yet. He glanced at the device strapped to Jack's arm with unadulterated lust. A means to travel in time, with none of the risk Helen experienced. What he wouldn't give to examine it. But not now.

"Come back in a month, Jack. We'll be ready then."

Jack grinned. "Will do, Pops. Have a fun time with the missus." He turned to River, holding out his arm like the proper gentleman he was not. "Hey babe, wanna take the fun route to next July?"

River looked at her father, and he rolled his eyes and waved her on. Dan huffed in annoyance as his sister disappeared with a bass thump and a flash of yellow light. Helen stirred softly, and Nikola stroked a hand carefully over her shoulder.

Never a dull moment. Not in this family.

Helen's Timeline

1850 – Helen Magnus born to Gregory Magnus and Patricia Bancroft Magnus

1883 – Helen Magnus meets Nikola Tesla while auditing classes at Oxford

1886 – The Five, led by Helen, inject a serum of the Source Blood, extending her lifespan indefinitely and recreating sanguine vampirus in the body of Nikola Tesla

1888 – Helen's fiancé, Montague John Druitt, is driven mad and murders prositutes in London. After initially being suspected of the murders, Nikola is vindicated when John is revealed as the culprit. After building a stasis box with James Watson to preserve Helen and John's unborn fetus, Nikola Tesla leaves for New York and a job with Thomas Edison.

1908 – Finally feeling recovered from the betrayal of John Druitt and knowing that letters from Nikola are no longer enough, Helen tempts him to join her on a study of vampire artifacts in Vienna. They spend the spring courting, but she becomes overwhelmed by the intensity of her feelings for him and flees. Shortly afterward, the British government calls on the Five to hunt down the terrorist Adam Worth. Nikola leaves once again for New York, and Helen builds her Sanctuary network with the aid of Britain.

1912 – Helen is finally convinced by Nikola to visit New York, and she agrees in order to look into starting a North American Sanctuary. Nikola arrives to escort her to New York, and the chemistry between them flares to life again aboard the Titanic. But there is a disaster when a lost ice kraken crashes into the ship, causing tremendous loss of life. Both Nikola and Helen survive, and in the aftermath spend weeks engaged in an intense physical and emotional discovery. Terrified by this, Helen begins to distance herself from Nikola, moving out of his rooms and throwing herself into building a new Sanctuary. They grow farther apart, until the war begins in 1914 and Helen returns to London to help in humanitarian and abnormal relief.

1917 – Nikola ceases his letters to Helen, and after hearing of the destruction of his Wardenclyffe Tower, Helen fears what has happened to Nikola. Influenza then hits the abnormal community, and the London Sanctuary, very hard. After her recovery, she strikes out to travel the world and look for her missing vampire. She discovers a deep love of Old City, on the West Coast of North America.

1922 – Nikola pops up out of the blue, luring her out of the London Sanctuary with the promise of vampire tombs in Egypt. They work together in a friendly competition with Howard Carver, and once again start their dance. Once again Helen runs, sure that if he could leave her for years without a word, he cannot feel the same as she does.

1943 – Helen discovers an Axis plot to kill Nikola after stealing plans for advanced technology that he has not turned over to the US government. She helps him fake his death and brings him in on her team working to defeat the Nazis.

1945 – After an explosion at Bletchley Park, Nikola disappears completely. She is certain he is alive, but he leaves her no word.

2008 – After sixty three years, Nikola Tesla returns to her life in dramatic fashion, only to be mortally wounded by John Druitt within an hour of his return. John drags Helen away, and she is left uncertain of his fate, impossibly angry and hopeful all at the same time. Months later, she sees him again as he helps them reclaim the Source Blood. With his help, an antidote to the dangerous Lazarus virus is developed. Ashley Magnus is abducted and irrevocably changed, leading to her dissolution into death in an EM shield.

1948 – Helen leaves London for good, determined to build a Sanctuary in Old City.

2010 – Helen journeys to Hollow Earth due to the machinations of Adam Worth, ultimately receiving a cure to radiation sickness there. Unbeknownst to her, the treatment has restored her ability to ovulate.

2011 – Having once lost his vampiric abilities to a tool named a "Devamper", Nikola Tesla nearly dies after a mortal injury, but is restored to immortal life with an injection of pure vampire blood from the Vampire Queen Afina. After the defeat of Afina and her army with the sacrifice of the Praxian map, Helen can not help but attack Nikola with all the pent up passion she's held for him since she first was intrigued with the Serbian student at Oxford. He seduces her, loves her, marks her with a deep scar of possession that may just be the vampire equivalent of marriage. Then he leaves her with an obscure note and a pair of trousers and disappears once again.

2011/1898 – Helen jumped through the time rift to follow and defeat Adam Worth. She is 160 years old. Within a week of her journey to the past, she realizes she is pregnant after the events following restoring Nikola to his vampire status and the destruction of Queen Afina. She contacts James once again, who comes with her to track down Nikola in Colorado, stealing his blueprints for the stasis box used to store the embryo that would become Ashley Magnus. Helen uses a memory lock device developed by James, who also tells her about his research into the ability to lock memories away with a trance technique of thought organization. He has already begun to lock his own memories away, to forget that this future Helen even exists.

1906 –First Time Helen has plans to develop an underground home for herself to hide away in, a place of respite to retreat to for the long wait, and a place of sanctuary for all of those she fears will be threatened in the war which will be brewing in 2011. To power her home, and to assuage her loneliness, she visits Nikola Tesla on his 50th birthday, hoping he will agree toundergo memory-lock training to allow her his companionship. She believes she has deciphered that mysterious note he left her in that hotel in Addis Adaba, and that this has always been that happened.

1910 – Second Time The stasis box containing her child with Nikola, created a century in the future is possibly malfunctioning, so she risks a visit to the man she loves despite the risks.

1917 – Third Time The first time through, Nikola disappeared from her life after the low point in his career, and she had feared for his life.

1963 – Nikola and Helen travel to Louisiana to see Nigel one last time before he dies. While a somber occasion, Helen finds herself possessed of an insatiable appetite for her husband and they make love so frequently even Nikola is drained to exhaustion. In the weeks following, Helen develops a craving for very rare meat, and soon realizes that once again, she is pregnant – and this time their offspring retains Nikola's vampire genetics. Daniel Bancroft, aka Daniel Gregory Magnus-Tesla was born in December 1963.

2008 – Fifth Time After helping his wife build over 80 sanctuaries housing close to a million abnormal residents in stasis or as caretaker staff, Nikola Tesla undergoes a two day trance to lock away sixty three years of memories, replacing them with sketchy false memories of an obsession with restoring the vampire species. He revives several corpses and leads the younger Helen Magnus into the Roman Catacombs, asking for her aid to escape the Cabal and her help to restore vampires to their "rightful" dominance, with her as his ruling queen. She rejects him, and John Druitt sweeps in to mortally injury Nikola and escape with Helen in tow. The older Helen and their children recover the dying Nikola and restore him to health.

2009 – Sixth Time Helen once again discovers that she's ovulated at an inconvenient time, and she tracks Nikola down to Bogota, Columbia, where he's preparing to track down a Cabal research lab that housed the Source Blood. She releases his memory block and tells him about the pregnancy, asking for his help to build another stasis box to preserve their third child.

2010 – Seventh Time Helen is busy in the final preparations for the revival of a majority of the abnormals kept in stasis throughout the underground world she and Nikola helped create. But she visits the surface and her husband who is deep undercover at the Sanctuary, worried about the younger Helen's health. Older Helen must ensure that Nikola interferes in the right way to drive Helen to Praxis to recover her health, and as a signal to Helen's contacts in Praxis that is it time to begin a slow, stealthy evacuation of the city.

2011 – Helen Bancroft once again becomes Helen Magnus, stepping into her old life and taking the reins of the doomed Sanctuary Network as the world discovers the presence of abnormals among them.

2011- Ninth Time – The memory-locked Nikola Tesla becomes very suspicious of this new Helen. She releases her husband's memories to insure he does not collapse everything they've worked so hard to achieve. She needs him inside the enemy's camp, and she needs a night of her husband's body next to hers.

2012 – Last Time - Helen Magnus is presumed dead as the Old City Sanctuary explodes in spectacular fashion, heralding the collapse of the Sanctuary Network on the surface. Underground, Helen recovers from injuries sustained in the explosion. Nikola can not handle the mental strain of two warring sets of memories, and goes into collapse until Helen speaks the words to release his memory lock, for the very last time. The future is now theirs.

A/N: Thanks for reading!

And yes, there are bits of Whovian in here. I can't resist. This is one of those very parallel universes with no Doctor.
