Hey everybody! I am back. I know I completed this story a while back but I felt it needed an update to show how the trio was coping with being Taleons. I hope you all like it.

"Zaad meg, veyu." (Two bags, please.) Mercedes said as she held up two fingers. She was at the local farmer's market purchasing a bag of those gushy grapes she'd grown to love since she first tasted them back on earth. She had to buy a couple things for a special event that they would be attending later that evening. She still couldn't believe how easily she was able to adapt to things in Taleo since they migrated there. So much had happened since then. For a while, the crew remained hidden till all the chaos died down about the rebellion vs the Taleon army. Sam allowed his mother to use her powers on the three to implant the Taleon language into their memory, so they were fluent within minutes. After a month of being on the planet they'd grown to learn that the days were definitely shorter than what they had on earth. And the nights were just as shorter as the youth on the planet partied as if they had no tomorrow. One night, Sebastian took them to a club where he introduced them to a woman that he claimed was going to make them blend in more on the planet.

"Sam, do you know who he's taking us to see?" Mercedes asked as they all followed closely behind Sebastian. Things were different by then with Sebastian. He was no longer trying to get in between Sam and Mercedes. He had his brother on Taleo now and there was no reason to harm them anymore.

"He says that it's some talent scout with the talent to take and exchange talents from other Taleons." Sam replied as they passed by other Taleons who were experimenting with their new found talents. Mercedes looked back at Santana and Kurt who were both discussing what type of talent they would ask for. She wished she could be as excited as they were but she was nervous. If this woman found out they were from earth, she could report them as aliens to the Taleon Army. She wasn't sure how they could all be so calm about it.

"I think I would like the power to blow people up or something." Santana said as she looked over at Kurt. "I want to just look someone's way and their brain just oozes out. Or at least be able to control them or whatever." She shrugged.

"That sounds disgusting. And honestly that's a wasted power." Kurt responded as Santana glared at him.

"You're lucky I can't make your brain ooze out." She retorted. Mercedes rolled her eyes at the two. Being on a different planet did not change the constant bantering between the two.

"Alright, we are here." Sebastian said before turning to the crew. "As I told Sam earlier, this woman is a talent agent. Underground as you can see. She can take and exchange talents for the right money or the right type of talent. There's one thing though…"

"I knew it…what's the one thing? Does she have to probe us?" Santana asked as everyone looked over at her. "Hey, I'm just asking the questions here. You know you all thought it." She said as they all turned to look at Sebastian again.

"No probing. You just can't choose what type of talent she gives you. And once she gives it to you. That's it." Sebastian said as he turned to knock on the door but stopped when Mercedes reached for his hand.

"Sebastian, how do you know about this woman?" Mercedes asked.

"Were you trying to get rid of your talent?" Brittany asked. Sebastian looked embarrassed for a minute as he tried to find a way to explain how he wanted to swap his talent for something else.

"Look, yes, at some point, I wanted to have the strength talent like you two. But I changed my mind at the last minute, okay?"

"Because you couldn't pick your talent, huh?" Kurt asked. Everyone fell quiet waiting for Sebastian to agree or disagree but instead he looked over at them and asked if they wanted to change their minds too. Santana and Kurt both were quick to say they were ready, but Mercedes had to think about it. Sam took her hand and reassured her that he would love her with or without her talent. He reminded her though that without the talents it would be easier for the Taleon army to know they were earthlings. So she decided to bite the bullet anyway.

"Ms. Carmen Tibideaux, these are my friends Kurt, Santana and Mercedes." Sebastian said in Taleon as he introduced them. "They would like to have talent implantation."

"Implantation?" Mercedes asked in English, suddenly feeling woozy. "I thought you said no probing?" she asked as she pulled Sebastian slightly. Sebastian began to explain but Carmen lifted her hand to stop him before motioning for Mercedes to come closer.

"You…come here." She had a hint of a smile on her face as Mercedes moved closer to her. "You three aren't from here, are you?"

"Uh…" Mercedes wanted to lie but felt as if Carmen was reading her mind the way Holly always did.

"Don't worry I don't read minds. That is not a talent that I have. Though it is something that I am in the market for." She smiled and looked over at Sebastian.

"Sorry, Ms. Tibideaux, my mother would never give away that talent."

"I understand…but if she ever changes her mind…" Carmen said before waving him off. "I can tell that you three are from earth, don't worry I will not expose you. I spent some time on your planet and was very famous there. I was known to many as Whoopi Goldberg." She confessed as the trio looked to each other in shock.

"Oh my God! My parents loved you in Ghost." Kurt responded. Mercedes couldn't believe she didn't recognize the woman.

"It was a good time but, I grew bored with the politics of your planet." She smiled then looked at Mercedes. "Since you're afraid, I will do your implantation last." She looked over at Kurt and motioned him over. "I hope Sebastian went over how this works. I have no control over which talent finds a connection with the host. When I touch your head, the talent will try to implant itself and whatever connects with you is the talent that you'll have."

"So it's like getting pregnant? You never know what child you'll get, right?" Kurt asked with a smile as his nerves started to set in.

"There you go, Kurt, you finally get to feel what it's like to be a woman." Santana quipped as Kurt glared her way. Carmen looked over at Santana and immediately made the smile that was tugging her lips to fade away. Something about the woman scared the Bejesus out of her.

"We will begin." She said as she dipped her hand into a sink and washed her hands before making her way over to Kurt. "I need complete silence during this process. Any interference can cause an implantation to be incomplete." She said looking over at Santana.

Mercedes and Santana both were nervous and scared as they held hands with Sam and Britt. Carmen began to mumble words, they couldn't even decipher. Minutes later, lights began to flow from her and wrap around Kurt. Each color would hit Kurt and bounce off and return back into Kurt. Finally a bright purple color flowed out of her and slowly went into Kurt lifting him off the ground before slowly placing him back down. He slowly opened his eyes then his body became translucent then he shapeshifted into a couple different people before returning back to himself.

"The implantation of Shapeshift talent complete." Carmen said softly as Kurt beamed with excitement. "Please use your talents wisely. She looked over at Santana and gave a slight nod to her as she slowly let go of Britt's hands. Mercedes was still nervous as she watched Santana step to Carmen. She did the same steps as she did with Kurt, mumbling the same words before lights began to try to implant into Santana. Finally a dark red light plunged into Santana as her eye shifted from dark brown to a deep red. Mercedes waited for her eyes to change from red to brown but they remained red even after Carmen stepped away. "Implanting complete. Psychic empathy."

"Why hasn't her eyes changed back?" Mercedes asked as she looked over at Sam. Their connection was still strong as it were on earth, so Sam could feel her fear and hesitation.

"Taleon's emotions appear in their eyes, so since Santana here, seems to harbor a lot of anger, her eyes remain red till she calms down."

"What the hell is a psychic empathy power?" Santana asked as her eyes glowed to a darker red. Carmen looked at her and smiled at Santana before explaining.

"You have the power to sense emotions. You can either control how people feel or just feel how they feel."

"What am I supposed to do with that?" Santana asked in annoyance. Mercedes could tell that Santana wasn't happy but Carmen was already looking over at Mercedes.

"Are you ready?" She asked as she extended her hands towards Mercedes. Sam squeezed Mercedes hand slightly then nudged her slightly.

"You can do this, babe." He responded before letting her hand go. Mercedes nodded then prayed God could hear her on this planet before taking Carmen's hand. She stepped closer to Carmen then took a deep breath as she started the process. She felt each of the colors trying to implant themselves into her and for a while it felt like nothing could get through. Then finally a bright white light floated around her for a few seconds then went in and eliminated her entire body.

"Whoa!" Sam exclaimed as the bright light beamed so bright that they all had to shield their eyes. Carmen smiled and nodded as if she approved of the talent that seeped through Mercedes. "What happened?"

"Implantation complete." Carmen said with a wide smile. "She has reality warping talent as well as precognition."

"How freaking charming! She gets two powers!" Santana said before crossing her arms. Her eyes were still red but now there was a twinge of green flickering around it. Brittany took Santana's hand and calmed her down till her eyes started to darken back to brown.

"Be happy for her, Santana."

"What am I supposed to do with reality warping?" Mercedes asked.

"Whatever you want…just be careful that you don't lose yourself in there."

That was years ago and Mercedes was now a reality warping professional. Santana had grown to love her powers as well. Kurt rarely used his talent but he was the most comfortable on Taleo then everyone. He'd even started his own fashion consulting business that was flourishing daily. Sebastian and Kurt had finally opened up about their relationship, especially after he got his talent. They were real Taleons now and they were living the life. Santana and Britt were married within a few weeks of being on the planet and worked together with a Taleon Modeling agency. Sam and Mercedes, having been connected already were considered married in the eyes of the Taleon law but they had a small ceremony just for his mother's happiness. Soon after they moved into their own small home that was right next to the farmer's market that Mercedes loved to visit daily. Though Mercedes never launched her singing career, she did however use her talent to host concert for the Taleon Army.

"Meh juya!" Mercedes announced that she was home. Usually Sam made it home from work as the new leader for the Taleon Army. It was weird seeing him lead the army he was once against but after overturning Will, Sam had started a new regime that had more of an open mind.

"Babe, we're back here!" Sam shouted. Mercedes could hear the sound of giggles and her heart flipped. She loved hearing that sound as she came in every day. Minutes later, she heard the steps of two sets of feet running towards her. "I'm gonna get you!"

"Mommy, help!" the little boy shouted as he ran to her and jumped into her arms. His soft curly blond tendrils bouncing as he hopped in her arms. His light gray ass beaming with excitement as Mercedes shielded him away from Sam. Mercedes and Sam became pregnant a month after the ceremony and she gave birth to their son Tyler, soon after. With things being so different on Taleo, her pregnancy was only six months and Tyler progressed faster than she even knew. And he got his talent right before he even learned to walk which was an experience that shocked and scared Mercedes.

"Leave my baby alone, Sam." She playfully said as she ran away with him in her arms. Sam used his super speed and appeared in front of them stopping her as they all fell over on the sofa.

"No fair! He used his talent!" Tyler said before he disappeared and teleported to the other side of the room.

"Hey! No Teleportation!" Sam said as he laid his head in Mercedes lap. She smiled at the two as she played in his hair. Sam was such a big kid with his son, who aside from the blond curls and lightly tanned skin, looked almost exactly like Mercedes. "So, what are you cooking today?"

"Kilusa reiz!"

"Really?" Sam asked in shock as that was a dish saved for big celebrations. "What's the occasion?"

"Everyone's coming over for a surprise." Mercedes sang.

Hours later, everyone was at their house and sitting in the living room eating the meal that she prepared. She waited till everyone was done before looking at Kurt and winking as he and Sebastian stood up. Mercedes waved her hands around everyone till she had altered their reality with everyone dressed in all white as Kurt and Sebastian stood at the altar. Out of them all he was the only one left to finally connect with Sebastian. Kurt thought it would never happen but Sebastian finally popped the question the night before and Kurt immediately called his best friend, Mercedes.

"So…you told her about this wedding and not me?" Santana asked as she started to feel left out.

"Chill, he only told me because he wanted me to alter the reality of the ceremony like I had at my wedding."

"I could have just accessed your memories and made you believe it happened this way, you know." Holly said with a smile.

"We like it this way." Sebastian said before taking Kurt's hand. "Now we're about to start the process." He said then looked at Sam and smiled. "Sam, if you don't mind…" Sam made his over to the two and began reading the Taleon ceremonial speech.

Mercedes wished their parents back on earth could have been there, and every now and then she missed her mother and Kurt and Santana's parents. But she knew that if they were still on earth they wouldn't have met these incredible siblings. Sam was a great husband and Britt was great with Tyler, and even Sebastian was becoming someone she really cared about. Everything they went through made them closer and being that they were now all connected their bonds were going to be stronger. She couldn't believe that it all started because she allowed Sam to take her breath.
