A Plan of Troubles

Spoilers: All Seasons and Episodes

Disclaimer: I don't own anything but Audrey's beginning story (you'll understand as the story progresses).


She stared at everything going on, clearly the men were trying to kill the cute guy with cheekbones named Wournos. Part of her realized that it wasn't normal but a bigger part of her expected the craziness. The woman in front of her was huddling close as if trying to help her but Lexi knew that the woman couldn't protect her but she instead could protect the woman.

When the woman beside her said 'Maine' and then 'don't worry after a while you get used to it' Lexi felt as if she knew where she was. William had said she needed to be in Haven, Maine and she almost sensed as if it was a haven. No one looked at anyone weird despite the blood feud obviously going on.

"Are they going to kill him?" Lexi pointed towards the area the insane men with the guns went.

The woman shrugged, "honestly I don't know. I know they want you to kill him so the weird stuff ends. He wants you to kill him so all the weird stuff ends so I think he's a little…nuts." She smiled, "I'm Jennifer by the way, you're Audrey…no you're Lexi. Sorry, everyone was expecting Audrey, I was expecting Audrey but the barn spit you out instead." She moved her mouth, "I'm sorry that was rude."

Lexi looked towards where the men had run and something in her made her start running towards where they went. Jennifer seemed to run after her but she didn't stop to look how close the girl was to her. All she knew was that the kiss that guy had given her had been full of love, as if he was dying in a desert and wanted one last drink of water. She didn't know him but she wanted to, she felt a connection she never had before when she looked into his eyes and felt his lips on hers.


When she found the insane men she found them about ready to shoot the guy, apparently his name was Nathan. That made her pause because she could almost picture him on a beach and in a shop eating pancakes. She didn't know him but apparently she remembered memories of him. Everything in her said to shoot the gun and so she did, right into the air and everyone stopped to look at her.

"Okay listen up you lunatics, move a muscle and lose your head." She got many stares in her direction, "I know it seems like I don't know how to use this thing," she made a small circular motion with the gun in her hand, but I do." With that she waved the gun towards them all.

The man in charge was the one who raised the question. "What do you want…Lexi?"

"Ideally, a stiff drink." She really needed one after the insanity she witnessed and was witnessing. Her first concern was the man on the ground for an unknown reason, "and a reason why you're trying to blow away Cheekbones here." She motioned to Nation with the gun.

The woman with the black hair shook her head, "I'll take care of her." She started towards Lexi and the gun raised towards her, Lexi took a warning shot past the woman.

"Get near me and I'll blow your head off."

"She's immune," the words came from Nathan as he laid on the ground and multiple eyes looked towards him. "Jordan you can't harm her, she's immune to The Troubles."

The Troubles, that words hit Lexi hard and she started seeing images of people in need and doing amazing things. She saw Nathan being harmed but not feeling it as he should, she saw the other guy with the ponytail dying while holding a baby. She saw so many things she couldn't believe it but up front she imagined looking into a mirror and seeing a woman like herself but different.

"He's right Jordan." The other man, bald one next to the guy in charge, said with conviction. "She can't be harmed and she has a gun, I would back down."


Lexi got confidence from somewhere inside her she didn't know existed. "Back off, you!" She pointed the guy with the gun pointed on Nathan. He backed off and the guy with the ponytail helped Nathan up before moving back over towards her. "Listen up, I don't know what kind of weird town this is but I know one thing, from the just I'm getting you need me to kill Nathan. So here is the deal, until I remember what the hell I'm supposed to remember in order to shoot him, not that I want to." She looked at both men beside her, "you leave him alone. These three," she motioned to the three people beside her, "so much as touch them and I put a bullet in myself taking away your only chance to end The Troubles. Are we understood?"

The man in charge nodded, "understood but know this isn't the end Lexi."

Jordan looked at the man, "we had a deal Vince…"

"Until she's Audrey again there is no way to end The Troubles." Vince looked at Jordan, "only time can end this. For now she's here so she'll be able to help those who need it. At least until she remembers who she actually is."

Lexi lowered the gun in her hand and Vince made the others lower theirs. "Okay then, you all can go home first while we stay here."


Ten minutes later the guy with the ponytail looked at her, "nice play there…Audrey."

She shrugged, "well you know, got to improvise Duke." She put up her hand, "oh and for the record, I only remembered after Mr. Injury-Invite here started talking about me being immune to the Troubles and of course Jennifer's explanation. Where'd you find her?"

Duke chuckled, "that's a long story."

"It's you?" Nathan looked at her and she smiled before slapping him across the face. "Ahh, what was that for?"

"Wanting me to shoot you," she shook her head at him. "And that kiss, really in the middle of The Guard almost killing you?"

Jennifer put up her hand, "guys I hate to break the happy moments but The Guard think Audrey is Lexi so what do we do? I mean if she starts acting like Audrey, despite being Audrey, than they will push her to kill Nathan. Do we have a plan?"

"Yeah," Audrey looked at them, "stop The Troubles once and for all without me killing Nathan. Howard said I had to kill…"

"Someone you love," Jennifer spoke and held out her hands. "We already know that."

Audrey waved her off, "but he also said I was being punished because I wasn't doing that. I return every twenty-seven years as someone new but what about the original me…who I was before this all began. That's the key to all this and we have to find it, until then I'm Lexi DeWitt with no clue about the town other than a simple idea about The Troubles and that Haven is insane."


A/N: I couldn't resist, between her posture and attitude and Duke's looks as well as the idea of Audrey solving the troubles as Lexi...I couldn't help myself. Let me know what you think, it'll help me with the next few chapters. Suggestions of what could happen (back story not changing sorry).
