Brooke Scott

Brooke Scott is the daughter of Dan, and Karen Scott making her a member of House Scott through her father, and a member of House Tyrell through her mother. Brooke is the sister of Lucas, and Nathan Scott, while being the step-sister of Haley Scott, of which her brother Lucas is a brilliant warrior who became the hero of the people of Tree Hill but is now dealing with the personal problems that have arisen due to his sexual involvement with several women, while her brother Nathan is the heir to House Scott and lies in the position of secondary power to only his father in House Scott, and her step-sister Haley is inolved in the drama that threatens to destroy House Scott from within. Brooke Scott has been secretly engaged in a long term affair with the King of Lucerne for the better part of her life now, and in this love affair she has two children in the form of Riley, and Sigmund Scott of which Riley is nearly six years old by the time of the Rise of Lucerne, while Sigmund is younger at only four years old.

Brooke Scott was born the youngest child of Karen, and Dan Scott. During her youth she was very popular with everyone she met, and this allowed her to get away with a lot of things with her father who was very happy with her apparent growth into a perfect political marriage wife. In this copasity she grew close to her mother whome she spent a lot of time with learning to practise of being a political wife, and a generally acceptable wife for the Houses eventual requirement. Her relationship with her mother was one of mutual love, and respect but at an early age Brooke became painfully aware that her mother Karen was dealing with her own deamons, and for this reason she never really pushed her mother to be anything more then what she could be.A very outgoing girl she found her rich excistence destroyed when orcs destroyed Tree Hill. She honed her skills at medicine until she is now one of the most capable healers in all of Tree Hill. This skill has done little to heal the wounds she still sees in her family, who she believes are closing in on a very dangerous moment in their history due to the hatred between Dan and Lucas, and a growing hate between Lucas and Nathan. Much like Bella Swan her life went in a tailspin when she bacame pregnant by Andrew Lovie. Unlike Bella Swan she has been forced to keep this a secret, and instead her child is believed to be the child of a soilder in Gondor who she still sees every once and awhile. This secret was confronted when Bella Swan learned of the love affair and travelled to Tree Hill with Andrew in order to confront Brooke which she did near the end of the Rise of Lucerne. Brooke Scott would eventually become overcome with her hatred of Bella Swan, and this would corespond around the same time that Morrigan was being commanded by Flemeth to find someone close to William Lovie that would be able to infiltrate his inner workings. Realizing that Brooke was lost she would push using Brooke not realizing the extent of the love that William had for her, and thus she was eventually hounded by the Dark Men of which would eventually end in her suicide and turning into a Daughter of Flemeth. As a daughter of Flemeth she would spend reasonably little amount of time in Korcani as Flemeth was forced to take her into the Fade where she was shown a phony world where everything had died, and told that the main reason for this change was the fact that she and William were not together anymore. Convinsed through exhaustion that the only way to reuinte with William was his death she would be sent to Lucerne where she was supposed to kill him the first chance she got. Waiting month after month she finally got her chance when William travelled to the Lucernian Mountains but it was at this point that Odin the Titan would finally reveal himself when he appeared to her as an appiration and released her from much of her coruption.

Brooke Scott was a POV character during the Journey, and had an entire chapter of which she described the coming of William Lovie III. into Tree Hill. This would be the only major part of the Journey that we do not see the actual thoughts, and processes of William Lovie thus making her role a rather shocker change.

Early Life


Brooke Scott was born the youngest child of Karen, and Dan Scott. During her youth she was very popular with everyone she met, and this allowed her to get away with a lot of things with her father who was very happy with her apparent growth into a perfect political marriage wife. In this copasity she grew close to her mother whome she spent a lot of time with learning to practise of being a political wife, and a generally acceptable wife for the Houses eventual requirement. Her relationship with her mother was one of mutual love, and respect but at an early age Brooke became painfully aware that her mother Karen was dealing with her own deamons, and for this reason she never really pushed her mother to be anything more then what she could be. Her mother for all of her skills didn't even notice that Brooke pulled away from her, and this was a truly sad moment for Brooke as she lost the only parental relationship besides her Grandfather at an early age. Even though she was close with her mother this closeness never moved towards her relationship with her father if what the two shared could be described as a relationship with her father Dan Scott.


 * Brooke_Scott_Gif_Big.gif"As I came to understand that my mother was just always going to be devoted in her love for Lucas, I was lucky enough when my Aunt Deb became the mother I needed. She and I came to love eachother as I should have loved my own mother, and that made me truly sad. Despite my sadness about the failure between me and my mother I couldn't have imagined my youth without Deb around. She was the one constant in my life, that I just knew would be there. She and Frank didn't have to give me a moment of the love that they did, and the way it ended I almost wish they hadn't. Life is so fleeting...it becomes more then you can handle when your alone...I guess I just wish I could have said I loved them more then I had."


 * -Brooke Scott

As time went on Karen became more and more in her favoritism of Lucas and this led to her moving away from the close bond she had with her daughter when she was a baby. As Brooke got older she was cared for mainly by her aunt Deb Lee, and her grandfather Earl Scott of which Dan Scott for a time didn't seem to care about. As this continued though it was the involvement of Frank Lee into Brooke's life that made Dan enter her life for the first time. As Deb had taken over mothering of Brooke it was then Frank Lee that begin to become a father figure to Brooke, and this did not sit well with Dan Scott. Dan would make it very clear to Frank Lee that he had better stay away from his daughter lest some very real consequences befal him.

Popularity


Along with this during her youth even as she gained immense popularity due to her intelligance and general beauty she never became especially close to her two brothers. Of her two brothers she was somewhat close to Lucas and it was through this relationship that she came to known Haley James who would come to be one of her best friends. But despite this Nathan and Brooke had no type of relationship during their youth, and this was something that was just accepted by everyone in the family. What little existed between the two was near conflict as Brooke despised the way in which Nathan treated Lucas, and also she was silently jelous of the attention that her father showered on Nathan.


 * "I hated myself for feeling it but I envied my brother Lucas. He seemingly had everything, and yet he was able to maintain it without even the slightest effort. He never went to the endless parties that I went to. He didn't socialize with the popular people the way that I did. He didn't do any of the things that my mother had told me were the only ways to achieve real power in this world."


 * -Brooke Scott

Brooke attempted constantly to maker herself into something that was important enought, and noticeable enought that her father would care about her. She would go to every party that the nobles were going to, and during these parties she would play the role of the perfect Lord's daughter with such skill that if she didn't feel so empty while she did it, she might have thought it was a real effort. She used her beauty and station in life to make a lot of friends in the noble school in Tree Hill, and she became even more popular then her brother was during their youth.

Peyton Sawyer

When Brooke was eleven her mother brought home an orphan girl named Peyton Sawyer of whom she had discovered while travelling to the market. At first Karen had walked by the young girl on the street, and thought little of it. Then she came to handing the girl food from the market, and then she came to sit with the girl on the route back from the market. Eventually she attempted to get Dan Scott to intervene but she found her husband nearly uncaring towards the affairs of this poor girl and so she took matters into her own hands when she brought her home. Peyton at first stayed hidden on the outside of the estate by Karen, but at a certain point Lucas came across her hiding in one of the houses, and came to talk with her. At first she was extremely afraid to talk to Lucas as she was told by Karen that she needed to be very careful lest she be thought a criminal and someone killed her on sight. After a time though she and Lucas came to get comfortable together, and he was able to convinse her that he meant her no harm. Now that he knew the secret he came to discuss it with his mother and they decided to keep it a secret until Karen had completed her room, and everything was prepared. As this continued Lucas came to meet with Peyton many times and they grew very and as the days moved forward she came to live inside the actual House Scott home as a handmaiden to Karen Scott. Peyton was very similar to Lucas in that they were both very shy and didn't like the center of attention. In their shared personality they became closer when Peyton grew close to Brooke Scott on a friendship level, and started to feel more comfortable in the house. Peyton would be the only person that Brooke ever really felt was actually listening to her, and this brought the two to a level of comfort that she had never felt with anyone outside of Deb, or her grandfather.



This close relationship with his sister Brooke, and his best friend Haley led the two to become together more often, and during these times it became clear that they were both very interested in the other. Peyton eventually made the first move and following this they became very sexually invovled with eachother to the point that even his time with Haley was interupted due to his growing obsession with Peyton Sawyer. Lucas was completely in love with Peyton and he often talked openely with her how he wished to marry her, and for her to have his children. This affection was returned by Peyton but she worried what his parents would say, and also she feared she wasn't good enough to marry Lucas. Because of this in the days leading up to the Fall of Tree Hill Peyton had rejected Lucas's proposal to marry him, and this had created the first problem between the two. After the rejection of the proposal Peyton became distant from Lucas, and this made her closer to Brooke Scott, and Brooke would definetly need her for the coming days as she was to married off to Julian Baker of House Baker



Julian Baker
See Also : Julian Baker


 * "I heard from my mother that Julian was a good man that every noble mother hoped their daughter would get to marry. So it was with that information that I was actually excited to finally fufill the final piece of my role as a Lord's daughter. The first time I met him was a time of extremes. The person I met around people was a brilliant and kind young man, but the man that appeared once it was just us two was someone that frightened me."


 * -Brooke Scott

About one year before the Fall of Tree Hill, and when Brooke was fourteen she was told by her mother Karen that Dan was in discussions with House Baker in order to have her married off to their heir Julian Baker who at that point was seventeen. Karen spent a long time telling Brooke how great a young man this Julian was supposed to be, and Brooke had always trusted her mother in these types of things so she trusted her yet again. It would be weeks of negotiations before she actually met Julian and when she did her first sight of him was that he was an extremely handsome man, and clad in his armor he looked like a true knight. Thus Brooke was excited, and when he spoke to her he spoke with a grace to her that made her feel comforted, and he held her hand the entire time that they were surrounded by their parents, and siblings. With everyone about to go home Julian asked to have a few minutes alone with her so that they could talk without anyone watching them. Their parents agreed and silently shuffled out of the room, and when they did Brooke waited excitedly beside Julian for whatever he would say to her, and she held his hand closely feeling a protectiveness from his touch. It was in this moment that the changes in Julian became clear, as the moment their parents were out of the room, his hand pulled itself from her, and he went over to the cabinet where he made himself a drink. Wanting to remain the picture of calm and happiness Brooke just stood their watching as seemingly a light had flicked in his mind and turned him into a different person. They stood alone in that room for some five minutes while he stood facing the cabinet making himself one drink, and then two, and by the time he had made himself the fourth drink Brooke had lost hope the other person was coming back.


 * Brooke_Scott_Large2.jpg"He just stood there staring at the wall, with his head only moving to drink the glass in his hand, or to refill it once it was empty. I had no experiance in these matters so I didn't know if this kind of behavior was normal so I just stood there watching him. And then without a second thought he chugged the glass he had in his hand and then returned to me, where he grabbed my hand and moved me over to the table and sat across from staring at me with what I assume was his attempt at a charming face, but it was devoid of real emotions. A few seconds after we had sat down my father walked in, and I had never been more excited to see my father then I was in that moment."


 * -Brooke Scott

As quickly as he was away from her, he returned to her side and pulled her like a rag doll towards the table in the room. Once at the table he reached across the table and held her hand, and stared into her eyes, and where five minutes ago she felt protected, and loved when he did that she now felt a strange tinge of danger from Julian as he was clearly not mentally put together. A few seconds after this her father walked in and a look in his eyes said that the only reason Julian was now at her side was because he had heard Dan coming, otherwise he had no interest in being at Brooke's side. It was in that moment that both families reentered the room that a new face entered in the form a beautiful young women several years older then she was. As this young women walked in the resemblance to Julian made it easy for Brooke to know that this was Lindsay Baker his sister, and she prepared to walk over and meet her, when she caught her eyes and saw a very angry girl looking back at her. For the briefest of moments Lindsay looked at Brooke with pure hatred, and then as if she was able to turn that off she moved forward toward Brooke and gave her a hug before saying how happy she was for Brooke and her brother. As she was being hugged she could see Julian watching them, and his eyes shined with an almost mistevious tension as he watched them. As Lindsay pulled away from the hug she grabbed Brooke's arm and pulled her into the other room to talk to her.



Meeting the sister

 * "As she pulled me through her family estate the harshness of her hand told me that this girl hated me. I didn't know this girl from anywhere, and I spent the time that she was dragging me around trying to find any words that I might say to make her like me. Turns out she just attacked me before I had a chance but even if she hadn't I don't know what I would have said."


 * -Brooke Scott

As Lindsay closed the door behind Brooke she grabbed her hand again but this time much more harshly and pulled her farther into the house, before going outside and into another small house outside the main house. Once inside this house Lindsay let go of her hand before slapping Brooke across the face and pushing her to the ground. Brooke was much younger then Lindsay and this was the first moment in her life where someone had ever reacted truly angry towards her so she didn't know what to do, and she just lay there as Lindsay screamed at her. Through all the screaming she heard the door open and hoped that someone was coming to save her, but when the verbal and sometimes physical attacks continued she realized she must have been hearing things. Lindsay screamed at her that Julian was hers and that she would not allow Brooke to interfere with her love for Julian.


 * Brooke_Scott_Small7.jpg"I watched with obvious amusement as my sister fought my prospective wife over the right to bed me. In the eyes of Lindsay I saw a women who loved me unconditionally, but in the eyes of Brooke I saw nothing but distain for both me and my sister. Not that I blamed her, I didn't feel a thing for her, and in all truth I just wanted to get out of here and ravish Lindsay. The Brooke problem could wait for another day."


 * -Julian Baker

As Lindsay started to get in her face, Brooke simply walked out of the room, and despite the yelling after her by Lindsay she didn't stop. She didn't dare look back she just walked back to her family, and told her father that it was time for them to leave. Her father gave her a look of pure hatred, but Karen saw the near tears in Brooke's eyes and made an excuse of why they needed to leave so that Brooke wasn't punished so harshly. As they arrived back in the House Scott estate, Brooke acted perfectly normal until finally Dan left the room, and once this had happened Brooke broke down crying, and it was Lucas that found her in her room in this state. When he asked her what had happened she told him the truth, and that she needed the wedding to not happen. She didn't feel right about the situation, and even though she knew what her role was she needed to get out of this. Lucas believed everything she was saying with every ounce of himself, and for this reason he stormed into his parents room at this point nearly in the middle of the night to discover his father Dan in bed with Nesme Oakheart of whom was the wife of one of Dan's vassals. Lucas grabbed Dan by the collar and punched him which caused a fight to break out between the two, and the ruckas became so much that eventually Nathan and Brooke both entered the room to find the still nearly completely naked Nesme Oakheart hiding behind a blanket while Lucas, and Dan rolled around the floor. Nathan went to call a gaurd but Dan stopped him, and continued fighting so Nathan stopped Dan himself by throwing Dan to one side, and grabbing Lucas by the shoulders and taking him back to his room. With Lucas gone from the room Brooke just stared at her father. She stared at him for the complete hypocrit that he was, and in this moment she finally understood how pathetic he was which caused her to laugh out loud.



Love of a Grandfather
See Also : Earl Scott

''``My father was a cold and calculating man with little love for anyone but my brother Nathan. My mother Karen was constantly worried about my brother Lucas. It was my Grandfather that was the one that paid attention to me. It was my Grandfather that tried everyday to make sure I had a smile on my face. It was my Grandfather that was the one that I scorned in favor of the friends that cared nothing for me. It was my decisions in regards to him, and the lies I told that haunted me more then anything else that happened in my youth.''

-Brooke Scott

A Family relationship that was suprising in the family was her relationship with her grandfather Earl Scott. Earl Scott was a hard and strict man that showed very little affection for his children, and even less to his grandchildren, but for whatever reason he was enamered by his grand-daughter Brooke Scott. While Earl Scott would spend some time with Lucas Scott of whom many spoke of as reminding them all of Earl when he was younger, he basically spent most of his kindness on making sure Brooke was happy. For much of her youth her relationship with her grandfather took the place for her lack of relationship with her actual father Dan. Earl spoiled Brooke to no end, and Brooke begin accompanying her grand-father on his constant trips throughout Lucerne. During these trips she was able to see all the major cities of Lucerne, and at one point she actually visited the Lucernian Academy where her future lover William Lovie III. would be taking classes. While she was at the academy her grandfather had asked her whether she wanted to come to school here, and she had said no because she was afraid to be in the big city without anyone she knew. Brooke had silently dreamed of going to the Lucernian Academy but the fact that it was so far away from everything that she knew wasn't even what did it to her. She felt this feeling in her heart like she was somehow needed in Tree Hill. This would be a decision that had not been popular with her father, and mother who both believed that she needed to go to the Lucernian Academy if she wanted to have any hope in becoming popular enough to gain a proper husband, but their desires were overruled by Earl Scott who had a horrible habit of giving Brooke everything she wanted.

The Siege of Tree Hill


If the battle was tough in that most people lost a lot of their families if not all the siege was even worse. The Orcs were led by Jurden Hardaxe and he was unlike many Orcs a member of the elite caste of the Orcs which meant that he was more intelligent then the rest of the savage orcs that made up the armies that had rampaged across France, and now Tree Hill. Jurden decided early on that he was going to make this pyschological in that he wanted to weaken his oponents in his own army so that when they moved on to Forks he would be completely dominent, and at the same time he truly enjoyed the pain he was going to cause on the humans of Tree Hill. Far beyond this as well was the fact that the Titan Odin had come to Morrigan the "Daughter of Flemeth" and removed a significant piece of her coruption and making her believe that Flemeth wished for her to delay the destruction of the city. Pretending to be a member of Mordor she would bribe him into holding off, and this played to his larger plan of weakening his rivals whenever they rose, and thus the siege would be something that was going to technically go on forever. Inside the city following the destruction of the outer layer it was a complete chaos of panic as people attempted to fight their way out of the gate and somehow escape, but Lucas and Nathan held the gates and wouldn't let anyone leave. Plans were drawn up to begin farming in the open areas of the town, and this would become their main source of food outside of the large but not inexhastable supplies in the keep.



With this strategy in mind Brooke and the rest of the survivors were treated to entire days of the Orcs simply standing throughout the city in painful arrogance of their numbers. They would do this and then scream throughout the entire night so that noone inside could sleep (as if they could anyway with the massive army just sitting inside the city. As the siege wore on it became a series of minor conflicts where Jurden would send his commanders that he wanted dead on near suicide missions against the keep, but even these suicide missions cost the defenders dearly as they ran out of basically all things they needed. During this time Brooke became knowledgable in healing as many of the women were forced to take on male roles in order for the city to survive while the men fought. She discovered during this healing time that she had quite the skill for the act of healing, and with very little prompting she is now capable of many things that regular nurses cannot even do. Even healing could not make up for the emotional damage that was done, as the Orcs paraded broken bodies around the walls, and due to the increasingly desperate situation they couldn't fire many arrows as there was increasing worry they would run out.

Raid of 5123


As the years of siege went by a lull in the fighting had taken place as the Orcish commander was completely fine with draining his leadership rivals in duels with Lucas, while the defenders were worn out and emotionally destroyed. The Raid of 5123 came about when an especially large Orc took control of forces, and led them in a very large attack that unlike the overall Orc leader he was actually interested in destroying the city. The main attack came against the main gate, and they were hardpressed to hold them off as they ran across the bridge. The only lull in the fighting came as the Orcs were forced to push their casualties into the moat where so high were their losses that they begin to fill the moat. At the eastern gate Loras Tyrell led the defences and the orcs here were in greater number then every before and they broke into the courtyard of the keep. Fighting became brutal and a last stand broke out at the gatehouse as the defenders were overrun and the Orcs broke inside the Keep. Loras Tyrell would lead some twenty men into the breach and kill most of the attackers during the charge, and bought time for relief to arrive from the main keep. The large Orc would be killed at the eastern gatehouse by Nathan Scott and following his death the Orc force retreated, but the defenders had been drained beyond repair by the attack suffering immense losses, and Loras Tyrell fell into a coma following a massive blow from the large Orc.

Meeting William Lovie III.
Main Article : The Journey



With elements of House Martell, and House Shephard entering the area outside the main gate and communicating with the defenders there was no more doubt about what had transpired on the part of the defenders. The entire city was abuzz, with news that the Prince of Lucerne was heading into the city. Brooke would join Haley, and Peyton in gathering the nobles and the entire population to prepare for the entering of the prince, of whom they all knew had saved them from certain death. For many including Brooke this would be their first look at a member of the Royal Family, and for others including Dan Scott this was a chance at getting to know what kind of future king they were looking at. On top of just seeing a member of the revered royal family they were also going to meet the man who had saved them all from death or slavery.



When he entered the city he was mobbed by the crowd, and it took many minutes before he reached the town hall where the Scott Family waited for him. It's said that when she looked at him she fell instantly in love with him, and it appears that the feeling was mutual. This provided a deeply troubling situation for the prince as he had already proposed to Bella Swan back in Forks, under the pretense that his love for her was the greatest he could ever feel. Brooke watched him as he moved towards her father and shook his hand before Dan introduced the entire remnents of House Scott to him. As Dan moved down the line and finnally reached the spot where Brooke was the situation became different and as Andrew took her hand to kiss the top of her hand, the two became locked in eachother embrace for a moment and only a slight shot to the back of Andrew from Jasper moved Andrew along. Despite moving along he was lost in his mind over the image he had gained of the beautiful girl. As he followed Dan Scott into the Scott manor he hoped and prayed that she would join him, while at the same time he also knew that it was a dangerous game, and she was the kind of girl that he could see himself going to war over. The silent looks, and held kisses was something that passed by the majority of the members of House Scott but one number that didn't ignore it was Lucas Scott, of whome immediatly thought he had a crush on me.

Falling for the prince


Dan Scott during the meeting would declare to William that he had been sent a letter by Bill Lovie apologizing him for bringing the Orcs to destroy Tree Hill, and what William read in the letter made everything up to that point just so much more clear, and from that moment on there was no more doubt about what his father had done. As the meetings ended Brooke's father Dan had by this point seen the looks that were being constantly shared between the young prince and his youngest child, and in this moment he also knew that Andrew was involved with Bella Swan of House Swan. With this in mind Dan wanted to make sure that he was able to get House Scott into a higher position and what better way then if his daughter became invovled with the prince. In order to sucede at this he told Andrew that he had important business to attend to but that his lovely daughter Brooke would be more then happy to show him around the town. Both of the young adults just kind of stared at eachother with Andrew understanding that he may not be able to control himself around her, and Brooke wanting desperatly for him to be with her.



The two walked around the town, as Andrew got to know the girl that he couldn't understand why he felt such an uncrontollable pull towards her. As they walked together the conversation was simply, but it wasn't the conversation that changed things it was the moment that Andrew felt the pull so strong that he moved his hand towards hers and gently rubbed his hand up and down her hand. When he did this she looke up at him through her eyelashes and they both knew that resisting had ended for Andrew and he had relented. With this gesture from him, Brooke saw her chance and grabbed his hand and they walked from that point on hand in hand. As they reached the last spot that Brooke thought she could even explain to him, she was scared that this would be the end and that she wouldn't see him anymore unless she did something drastic. She couldn't know that at the same time she was worried it was going to end, Andrew was feeling the same fear, and so together in that moment she made the decision to go for it. She grasped his hand tighter and told him that there was one last thing that he needed to see before the tour was over. She led him towards the ruins of the front esate of House James which she knew would be empty because they were having celebetory dinner with her father.

The two would enter the ruins of House James, and as they walked the grounds they would continue talking but the electicity between them was too much to resist. William would be the first to move and he put his hand to her cheek and after this they two would kiss. The kiss would become heated and the two would make love in the ruins, and despite knowing the political consequences of the action he couldn't resist what he was feeling for her. Brooke would lead him back to the city, where the two would join the celebrations that were taking place, and despite attempting to remain secretive there shared looks and smiles throughout were noticed by many including more then just Lucas this time. Jasper would take William aside and get him to tell him the truth and after at first lying to his best friend he came clean after seeing the hurt in Jasper's eyes over being lied too. Realizing he had to help his friend Jasper convinsed him to keep it a secret, and made him understand that his bethrothel to Bella was beyond stopping at this point. Saddened but realizing the truth William and Jasper would find Leven, Emmett, and Edward and meet as the Shadow Council to discuss their next moves. At the same time Brooke was taken aside by Lucas of whom told her the thing she dreaded to hear when Lucas let her know that William was bethrothed to Bella Swan. Breaking down into tears at the feeling she had been betrayed by William she stormed out of the room with her brother and went to find William.



Brooke ran out of the room and quickly found Carlisle Cullen of whom she knew was Williams advisor of sorts. Telling Carlisle that she had word for him from her father Carlisle told her that he was meeting with his friends in the camp. Making her way to the camp she would find the prince still in the meeting and she barged her way past Ellia Snow and the four other gaurds in place to make sure noone entered. Entering the room she discovered him laughing with Leven in the corner and immediatly begin crying which brought the attention of everyone in the room especially William. Seeing her cry broke his heart and he rushed to her side taking her outside the tent and rushing her to his personal quarters followed closely behind by the Shadow Council, and his personal gaurds. Making his way inside she broke down and he held her as she cried, while outside Jasper kept everyone from intervening telling them that William had to deal with this. William and Brooke would talk and he laid everything on the table for her, making her understand that he loved her deeply and that despite only meeting hours before he knew they were fated, but on the same note he said that he couldn't break his bethrothel to Bella. Brooke in that moment hated Bella more then she believed she had hated the Orcs as they butchered the city, and she made the decision in that moment that despite her love for him she had to step back and give him space. William told her that he would return and see her and that feeling what he had felt with Brooke he believed that what he had felt with Bella was nothing compared to their connection.

I pushed past a Violet haired girl that didn't seem impressed that I had done that, and walked into the tent. Entering the tent I saw the large boy, and Jasper standing in the corner looking onto a table, while a lanky robed young man stood behind them trying to look as well. It wasn't until I heard his laughter that I realized he was in the corner with a beautiful blond girl who I knew from the initial meeting was a Martell. Was she another of his girls on the side? He had seemed so sincere when we had spoken, I just couldn't believe that he was here laughing with his next conquest while I was broken utterly and completely.

I let out a sob and he looked over at me followed by everyone else in the room. I wanted to yell at him. I wanted to hit him and make him feel the pain that I felt being betrayed in this moment, but I couldn't. No words, or movement came from my body or mind, and I watched crying helplessly as he nearly ran to me and pulled me through the tent and back into the open. I could hear the sounds of shouting but all I could concentrate on was the feeling of his hand on my shoulder, and the way he nearly carried me wherever he was taking me. "Everything with be alright Brooke."

"You lied to me William how could...how could any of this be alright?" He made a left down the paths of tents and pulled me past more gaurds and stunned faces into a larger tent then I had ever seen before.

"I'm sorry that I lied to you Brooke, but I knew if I told you then...If I told you the truth you would have passed me by." There was a vulnerability in his eyes that confused me. This was a stark contrast to the confident and centered prince that I had seen up to this point.

"I would have pased you by because your taken. Your taken and now I'm ruined." I fell forward and he caught me and brought me to rest on his shoulder. As I cried I could hear the voice of someone outside the tent making everyone understand that everything was fine and noone was entering the tent. I had never thought much about my first time. It was always something I didn't have to worry about as a noble girl. My father would pair me with someone, and that person would have me as he pleased on our wedding night. It was all so simple until I saw him.

"I'm sorry that I betrayed you, but you have to know that I care for you deeply." He looked at me and I believed him. Either he was the greatest liar that ever lived or he was telling the truth. "I thought what I had with Bella was fated. I met her and I guess I didn't know what love felt like because I thought that was it. I thought that was love until you and I were together."

"What am I to do now William. I can't picture myself with anyone else now. How could I? You tell me what I'm supposed to do?" He looked conflicted. A part of me wanted him to tell me to think of him no more. It would have made things so much easier if he had just cut the cord right there. It was only a part of me that wanted that though. The main part and the part that was ruling over my decisions wanted him to beg me to wait. Tell me that we would meet in secret, and eventually he could divorce the Swan and marry me.

"I don't know Brooke."

Funeral of Earl Scott
See Also : Earl Scott



"As the fires stopped burning my mind returned to the grand-father that I had loved so much back then and could't help but think how much he had been forgotten. He died so that all of us could live, and yet my father cared nothing about it. The funural was about remembering his life and the way he died. It was about showing him somehow how sorry I was."

-Brooke Scott

When the fires had stopped burning and William had returned to Lucerne to deal with his father, Brooke was left with the fact that now she was safe but at the same time she had lost so much. Her friends were dead, her family was in tatters, and the one person other then Haley and Peyton that had loved in her in the form of her grand-father was dead. She asked her mother if they had found any sign of her grandfather but she said that by this time there was nothing to find. When she asked if there would be a funural Karen said that Dan didn't think it was approapriate and was making efforts to make sure that Earl Scott's name was forgotten from the memory of Tree Hill so that he alone would be celebrated. At this news she left her mothers side near tears and made her way to her grandfather's room where she discovered servents tearing into the room. For a moment she just watched them as they tore her grandfather's room to pieces, and she just really didn't understand the world in that moment. When she went to ask them what was going on, her father came up behind her and told her that Earl's room was being turned into a resting room for Karen. When Brooke told him that she didn't want him to get rid of her father's things, he looked at her for a moment before grabbing her roughly by the arm and pulling her into a side room nearbye. Inside the room he proceeded to verbally attack her before pushing her roughly into the wall. At the sound of Brooke being pushed into the wall her brother Nathan and several servents approached the room and saw her on the floor with Dan clearly the reason for her being on the ground. Brooke at this point with tears in her face looked to her brother Nathan for some kind of help, but instead Nathan just turned around and walked back the way he came, and after this the servents quickly followed suit. At this point Dan would verbally assault the nearly broken Brooke.


 * Brooke Scott: Please father I never ask you for a thing...why can't you just do this one thing for me...please father.


 * Dan Scott : Just sit on the ground and remember your place in all this little girl.


 * Brooke Scott : And what is my place father?


 * Dan Scott : The bottom of the food chain.

After saying that he would walk out of the room leaving a broken Brooke lying on the ground for sometime before her brother Nathan returned into the room looking severely disapointed in himself, and perhaps worried about Brooke more then she thought he ever would. Brooke didn't know what to say to her brother so she ran out of their and ran away past the cries of Haley who noticed her running away, and finally made her way to the glades west of Tree Hill where she and her grandfather had spent a lot of time. While she spent the time alone she knew that her grandfather needed to be remembered and if her father wouldn't help her then the only person left to go to was her mother.


 * "I had never been particularly close to my mother, and while that made me sad sometimes I understood her. I knew that she loved me in her way, but she had lost herself somewhere along the road. I can't blame her for loving someone, and then following that love even when it didn't make sence."


 * -Brooke Scott

When Brooke left the glade she went to the home of Margeary Tonsvale of whome was the matriarch of House Tonsvale, and the women that her mother spent most of her days with filling out the boredom. She barged into the estate being alowed past the gaurds because they knew who she was, and when she reached her mother she grabbed her by the arm and pulled her outside. Outside she tried to make her mother help her, but she quickly discovered that her mother was exactly as far gone as she appeared when her mother not only refused to do this, but also moved to side with her husband against her daughter. This was too much for Brooke and knowing the debate between House Scott was over she knew the only person that could help her was William Lovie III.

Begging a King



 * "The city was massive. Gleaming white as you entered its walls but when I did get past the walls the whole city was alive with the sounds of cheering, and laughter. After living so many years just begging to live this was a new thing for me, and knowing that he was responsible for all this happiness didn't suprise me one bit."


 * -Brooke Scott

With her attempts to get her family to do what she wanted she risked a lot by deciding that she needed to see William. She was able to talk Haley into pretending that Brooke was staying with friends for a while and the sad fact was that noone in her family except for Lucas even noticed her absence. She made her way by carriage to Lucerne and arrived there to the sight of a parade. The carriage driver explained that William Lovie had taken control of the Kingdom and was now the King after he had thrown Bill, and Sean Lovie out of Lucerne. She covered herself in garbs as if she was an Ostrogoth, and made her way to the Keep where she hoped to find Jasper, Edward or Emmett because William had told her that of anyone alive those were the people he trusted next to his sister. She would have gone to Alice but she worried that Alice would be on Bella's side and wouldn't help her. If she had thought that she was given ample proof of that when she arrived at the Keep and wasn't greeted by one of his best friends but instead by Alice Lovie of whome stood in the Gateway staring at her through the garb as if she had somehow known all along that she was coming.

The Funeral

 * “Grief is like the ocean; it’s deep and dark and bigger than all of us. And pain is like a thief in the night. Quiet. Persistent. Unfair. Diminished by time and faith and love. I didn’t know Quentin Fields, but I’m jealous of him, because I see how his absence has affected the people who did know him. So I know he mattered to them. And I know he was loved. People say that Quentin Fields was a great basketball player: graceful, fluid, inspiring. They say on a good night it almost seemed as though he could fly. And now he can.”


 * -Brooke Scott

Pregnancy
See Also : Riley Scott



It wasn't more then two months after William had left the city, and the beggining of their affair that Brooke begin having trouble keeping food down early in the day, and soon after she realized that she hadn't had her bleedings during that time either. Thinking she knew what it was but wanting to be sure before she sprung this potentially horrible news on William she went to see Haley, and when the two met she created the first lie between the two when she told Haley she had become involved romantically with a Gondorian soilder. After going through the list of things that had happened to her and seeing that the situations were the same Haley indeed validated her pregnancy, and with the knowledge that William was coming to Tree Hill in less then a month she became increasingly worried about what his reaction would be. William and her were still writing eachother nearly every other week and althought these letters were heavily vague in their wording the two seemed to understand eachother already and there growing love for eachother only grew stronger through this communication. During this time waiting for Maergary Tyrell to return from Highgarden she spent her days and nights with Haley of whom by this point no longer had any real relationship with her brother Nathan and was increasingly obvious about her affections to Lucas Scott. With her best friend Margeary Tyrell the only person who truly knew about William she became hysterical when she saw Margeary a week later upon her return from Highgarden.

Brooke told Margeary of her pregnancy, and her friend attempted to talk her down as in her heart she knew that William could very likely simply end the relationship and turn Brooke into a single mother with very little prospects for the rest of her life. Despite these constant and powerful pleading by Margeary it was Brooke that was completely unwilling to accept a world where she didn't have his baby and thus she begged Margeary to assist her in finding a proper excuse as to how she could be pregnant. Despite the extreme misgivings that Margeary had about the decision she was still her best friend so together they came up with reinforcing the earlier lie about a Gondorian soilder and her had become romantically involved following the liberation and she had become pregnant during these intimate moments. She and Margaery decided she needed to tell her family and she did this a few days later when she asked them all to meet for a dinner. When she told her family she was accompanied by Maergary Tyrell of whom held her hand the entire time and while Dan Scott was furious and Nathan disgusted they all appeared to believe her except for Lucas who had come to understand what had happened between Brooke and William, and in that moment when he figured it out he went to his sister.

Lucas Discovers the Truth


As Brooke finished telling her parents she retreated to her room as she was basically pulled along by Margeary. When they arrived back in her room she was shocked when noone followed her, but she could hear yelling from the living room so she knew that they were still argueing over what was happening. It would be hours before the yelling finally stopped and she heard the shouts of her father before watching Dan, and Nathan storm out of the Keep and into the city proper. When after everything had seemingly calmed down Margeary left and when she did she was followed behind by her brother Lucas who had known about the tryst that she had with William Lovie after he had admitted it to him because of their bond. He didn`t say anything but she had always suspected that he knew, and the look he gave her just made it all the more real for her. After she cried for what felt like hours she and Lucas discussed what she was going to do, and she made it very clear that she was not going to give up the baby under any circumstances. Niether of them knew but there entire conversation would be overheard by Dan Scott of whome had come back inside the Keep after getting into a fight with Nathan and planned on getting his anger out by coming in and making sure that Brooke knew how much of a disapointment she was. This all changed when he heard her whispering to Lucas in the room about the true father of the child growing inside her. Knowing the importance of this later on, and realizing neither of his two children would ever tell him the truth or help him willingly he hid himself in an adjacent room and listened to everything they said about the situation. As Dan realized that Brooke was involved with not just a secret man but actually the King of Lucerne he became unstoppable in his desire to make this union the most important moment in House Scott since the fall of House Targaryan.

Royal Mistress

 * Brooke_Scott_Large9.png"When I realized that most forgotten child was secretly carrying around such a secret I was beyond shocked. She had always been the runt of the family but I guess this would be her shot at proving herself."


 * -Dan Scott

The moment that Dan heard that Brooke and William Lovie were together he had finally come to terms with her usefullness. In Dan's mind he would be able to use Brooke to gain the power base that he required. He stayed silent with his knowledge for a time as he continued to built up the plans he knew he would need in order to blackmail the king of Lucerne. When finally he had gained the foothold into the whole thing he came to believe that he could force Brooke into making William leave Bella Swan and thus make Brooke the new Queen of Lucerne. If this failed then Dan would unleash the fact that Riley Scott was actually the first born son of William Lovie thus creating a serious competitor to the throne of House Lovie. All of this would come to a head when William arrived in Tree Hill for what was described as a mission to oversee the recronstruction that was underway in Tree Hill, but was actually William just needing to see Brooke. As William arrived in the city he was silently watched by Dan Scott's men who Dan wanted to find proof that William and Brooke were actually together. As William entered the city he found himself unable to even contimplate being official and instead of first visiting Dan Scott he made his way to the carefully prepared Order of the Red Dragon compound within northern Tree Hill where Brooke was awaiting him. The two would basically lock themselves in the compound for many hours as he could barley imagine his life without her in that moment.


 * Brooke_Scott_Sexy1.gif"For a time despite the fact that I knew my place was tenious I felt fine. I was okay because I had him to myself in my heart. I didn't matter to me that she got to be the one who claimed him in the eyes of the people, because I knew in my heart that she could never have him the way that I
 *  did. He loved me in a way that she just couldn't compete with."


 * -Brooke Scott

As William hid himself within the Order of the Red Dragon members of Dan Scott's forces attempted to infiltrate the compound but were captured by Ezio Ederiz of whom had travelled alongside his king. With the men captured Dan realized that he might be found out before he had even had a chance to tell Brooke about what he was doing, and thus he moed to assasinate the men he had sent to the compound. As the prisoners were taken north their convoy was ambushed by forces of House Scott of whom targeted the prisoners and then fled the scene. Back at Tree Hill it was William that finally moved on from Brooke for a moment and went to visit with the Order of the Grey Dragon that were constructing the cities most important elements, and while he did this Brooke returned to the House Scott estate so that she could get Riley Scott so that William could see his son.

The world always had seem so simple when I was young. I would grow up and marry, and that perfect knight that I found would gather me up in his arms and protect me from the world. It was a childish dream to believe that life would be as simple as all that, but thats the fun of being a child. When your young you get the chance to believe in things, and hope for dreams that when your older you can't even contimplate. I walked into the estate and old lady Helga gave me a strange look that I wanted to find out more about, but I didn't dare take a second longer then neccesary before I saw my prince again.

As I entered Riley's room I found Dan sitting in the chair beside the crib holding Riley in his arms. He was holding him close to himself singing some song I had never heard and rocking him back and forth. This was the first time that I had seen Dan even go near Riley, and for a reason that wouldn't have been normal for a daughter to feel about her father holding their baby I felt deep within myself that I needed to protect Riley from whatever cruetly my father had in mind for him. As I approached him he begin to laugh before standing up still holding onto Riley. "Father what are you doing here?" I tried to move closer to him, but he held out a hand to keep me at a distance. It was as I moved closer and he put out his hand that I noticed the two men standing in the corner of the room. One one was hooded and what little I could see past the tatoo of a scorpian on his arm I didn't know, but the other man was very clearly Dustin Crain the lord of his family.

"Dear daughter do you not trust me to hold onto your child?" Dan gave me a mocking look before continueing. "For what reason could I have to want to harm this child? Hmmm...is there something that you want to tell me Brooke?" He moved closer to me still holding onto Riley and then shut the door behind me. I stood motionless infront of him, and as if sencing my fear he moved forward and slapped me in the face knocking me to the ground. The pain was all over my face, and I raised my hand to try and offer some comfort to the wound, but found he grabbed my hand and ripped me from the ground to make me lean against the wall. "I asked you a simple thing you moron. Is your brain so small that not even the tiniest of things can slip out." Walking into the corner I could hear rustling in the corner of the room and looked up to see Dan putting Riley into his baby bed before sitting back on the chair he had been sitting in. I let go of the wall and as I went to move closer to him, I felt hands push me from behind and saw Lord Dustin laughing down at me.

"I don't know what you want me to tell you Dan." I crawled a bit towards him before using a table to get back to my feet." Just tell me what you want to know and I'll tell you...this doesn't have to escalate any further Dan."

"You think I'm worried about this escalating? What could you possibly do to hurt me you slut. You have been an embaressment to this family since the first day I saw you parading around in your dresses. Tell me you pathetic girl what could you possibly do to hurt me." There was an almost unhuman look in his eyes, and whatever piece of him he lost during the siege was clearly the part of him that knew right from wrong.

"I'll tell Lucas about this. I'll tell him..."He moved with more speed towards me then I expected and it scared me to the point I jumped backwards slamming into Dustin who pushed me to the ground again. Trying to get up Dan grabbed me and pulled me towards him.

"You really are quite pathetic you know that. I know everything Brooke, I overheard you talking to your brother about your little affair with the king. The child is of House Lovie." I went to respond but before I could he threw me to the ground which crumpled me once again. I shielded myself from the incoming blows I thought were coming but instead he just kept talking. "You will not lie to me here...not in this place you will not dare to lie to me." The other man came behind me and grabbed me pulling me upwards to look at Dan. "The question of whos the father of that child has already been anwsered, but the question I need you to anwser is how far are you willing to go to protect him." That was the kind of question only a man who didn't know what love was could ask. A parent would do anything to protect their child. I would do anything for Riley, and here I stood in front of my own father who was clearly losing his mind.

"I would do anything." I reached my hand to my face and felt the cascading tear drops dotting my face, and looked around for someone to help me. The hooded man held me tight to him making sure I couldn't move, and looking at Lord Dustin told me that he had thrown his lot in with Dan and couldn't back down. When I looked at Dan if he noticed he didn't seem to care or show any response. Walking in circles I did see the happiness in his eyes as clearly he had recieved the anwser he wanted from me

"Good. Then if your are being truthful your going to do exactly what I say. Because if you don't your lover boy is going to be hurt in ways even he can't repair." That was the moment I knew. I still meant nothing. This had nothing to do with what he wanted me to do, and had everything to do with what he clearly wanted me to make William do. So there I was stuck being held by one man, while my father blackmailed me into betraying one thing in this world that I could not betray.

"What would you have me do." Whatever he said didn't matter. I wouldn't hurt William. I couldn't hurt William. Whatever he said I would find a way to tell Lucas and he would protect me from Dan's wrath. Maybe I would simply flee eastward to Patria and stay with my uncle there. He always loved us. It didn't matter to Keith that we weren't his. It didn't matter that we must have been constant reminders of the brother he loathed so much. None of that matter to him as much as loving us. It was times like this that I missed him more then ever.

"I don't want you to betray your beloved. I don't want you to blackmail him. I just want you to make sure that when the day comes that Bella Swan is no longer alive you will be ready." To say that I hadn't thought of what life would be like without Bella alive would be a complete lie. Everytime he returned to the city he shared with her, the bed that she warmed for him. I grew sick. What right did she have to what was mine. We both had sons for him. I'm sure that Bella loved him as any servent loves their master I mean how could she not, but she was nothing. An insect scrambling around the world trying to destroy my relationship with William.

"Ready for what?" Dan gave a wave to the man behind me and he released me. Turning back to him I looked in his face and saw more of a monster then a man. He had a crooked nose that made the rest of his face look even uglier then it would have otherwise. A massive burn covered the left side of his face and puss oozed from it as if it was an open wound still. As if it had happened yesterday. His left eye under the burns was gone, but his right eye had a peircing glare to them that made clearly understand how bad a man this was. Who was this man.

My staring at the ugly man was interupted by Dan's voice behind me anwsering my question."For you to be Queen of Lucerne you moron."

-Exerpt from the End of Darkness

After this Dan would tell her that in order for Dan to for a time protect the dark secret she would have to promise that in the future if Dan demanded something of the relationship then Brooke would do it without question or resistence. Brooke agreed to this, before quickly getting Riley from his crib and then retreating from her room. Moving away from her room she made her way through the estate before making her way back to the compound of William Lovie III. and the Order of the Red Dragon. As she entered the compound she was noticed by William from afar as he had been patiently waiting for her since his plans had fallen through. Seeing her holding his son he was overcome with love for her, and he walked towards her before bringing her into the large tent. Inside he held her and his son close for many minutes and so overcome with love was he that he didn't notice the bruise on her eye, or the tears streaming down her face. For Brooke's part this was the first time since she saw her father that she felt safe, and she held onto him with everything she had. After a few minutes he pulled back and noticed the tears that dotted her face, and the very noticeable bruise below her eye. William tried to make her explain what had happened, but Brooke spent the next long time convinsing William that he had nothing to worry about. When William wouldn't take this as a good enough excuse she would tell him that she was being threatened and that if she told him by who then he would be harmed. She said she had it under control, and that was all she could tell him right now. William made it very clear that he wasn't going to forget this, and that whoever had harmed her would be dead without any question. With the protectiveness and love that he showed her she broke down and fell into his arms before he carried her to bed and they lay together for the rest of the night.

The Fall



 * "I realized quickly that life without him was just utterly not something I was willing to live. It was either with him, or without him completely. I tried to tell him how much he meant to me, and that I couldn't live without him, but in the end I understood his problem. He couldn't just leave her. She was the Queen of Lucerne, and while she was there was never going to be a time when me and William would truly be together. I had to change the foundation of the Kingdom if I wanted my life to go the way I believe I deserve."


 * -Brooke Scott

Following the birth of their second child the situation between William, and Brooke began to deterioate to the point that Brooke hardly went a day without crying. This went on for months until eventually William could no longer contain his guilt for the complete destruction that he was causing to not only Bella but now to his fated love Brooke. Brooke sent him constant letters and it was while they were sending eachother letters that Brooke begin to show evidance of another pregnancy by Andrew Lovie. When she sent him the next letter and described the fact that she was pregnant with another one of his children he wanted with everything in him to simply go and see her, but he knew that he had promiced himself to Bella Swan and thus couldn't get involved anymore. When Andrew's return letter was filled with none of the writing style that had framed her beloved for their relationships history she knew something was wrong, and she was proven correct when he didn't come to Tree Hill during the next scheduled meeting with the royal family, and on top of this the next letter she sent didn't get responded to.

Return of Andrew

 * "I didn't know that it was Bella's words that had drawn him back to me. She had given up what I never could because she was capable of understanding that he needed both of us. However much it pained her she knew that he could only be truly happy if both of us were by his side in whatever way we could be. I envy that she was selfless enough to be able to do that because I would have never done it if the situation was reversed."


 * -Brooke Scott

Leven Martell


During the events that followed William confronting Brooke over her attempts to plan an assasination of Bella Swan, she would become a target for many who were against William during the Lucerne Civil War. After the attack on Lucerne by House Jestife William would send Leven Martell to Tree Hill where she was to protect Brooke against the threats that might exist for her. During this time Brooke and Leven got to be friends, as Leven tried to understand the importance of this seemingly low level noble. After befriending Haley Scott she would learn that Brooke`s two children were the children of William and Brooke. Learning this shocked Leven who thought William was completely devoted to Bella, and for a moment she hated Brooke who had gained the thing she had always wanted.

Final Moments


William's return from Westbridge had led him from happiness in the victory over the Malfoys, and the time he spent with his friends, and Brooke into a return to the capital where his sister awaited him. Entering through the gates his sister sprinted towards him and jumped into his arms holding him tight as his commanders looked on, and not even Jasper her near husband was willing to try and get between her and William. Alice would finally give way to the queen in Bella Swan who hugged him with tears flowing down her cheek, and William hugged the women back that he loved but knew he didn't love enough. Following hugging his children deeply and his family that had come to greet him they walked through the second gate where the crowds of Lucerne awaited in massive throngs for their victorious king. William was obligated to go to a dinner hosted by many of the nobles of the city, and he held Bella and his children close as he remembered what it was like to be home again. Alice and Bella were able to get him away as quickly as possible and William would kiss his children goodnight before retiring to his room with Bella where the two would make love for the first time in months. As Bella fell asleep William coudn't sleep and left his room to find Alice waiting outside the door clearing close enough that she would have heard what had happened, but she doesn't seem to be bothered. Alice takes him into the library where William knows he is about to get in trouble from Alice.

Alice's agents had discovered increasing talk about William's affair with Brooke Scott, and this had her greatly worried as she had held onto the belief that it was nothing more then a fling, but having invited her to Westbridge she knew this was something beyond a fling. Alice told him that she had evidence that Brooke was once again contacting people looking for poison and although she had been unsuccesful so far it was just a matter of time until she found the supplies she was looking for. Hearing all this he promiced his sister who was crying and beggining him to do this for her, he promiced her that he would end things with Brooke, and told her he would leave within a few weeks to Tree Hill with Leven.

"What do you want from me Alice?"

"I want you to finally tell me if your going to do what is right."

"If you mean stop seeing Brooke I'm sorry sister but I cannot do that. She has ahold of something within me, and no matter how hard I try I cannot accept my life without her in it."

"It is far past the time of continueing this affair. I gave you time sweet brother, but it must end. The people scream of your greatness, but soon the whispers of your affair will become louder, until the day comes that all the victories in the world wont shelter us from the noise."

"How could people know about my relationship with Brooke."

"They know the same way that we know. You don't hide well. You called her to come to Westbridge? Did you honestly thing noone would notice the noble lady of House Scott coming to Westbridge and spending all of her time with the King."

"Maybe what people think isn't the end all for me Alice."

"It should be Will, but if your saying you need more I have more."

"What more could you have?"

"Morrigan reported to an agent of ours in the Green Dragon's that Brooke has entered into a number of poison shops. I can show you the letters, but the action speaks for itself."

"God Dammit!"

"William I'm sorry."

"Your not sorry. Don't you see that this breaks me? Dont you understand that without her I feel hollow."

"Think about Bella."

"If I didn't love Bella I would have divorsed her years ago and been with Brooke. Thats the problem. I do love Bella. I love her for everything she is, and I couldn't think of a more perfect wife."

"Then you need to forget about seeing Brooke."



Brooke had departed from the main army alongside her brother Lucas at Stormwind, and travelled back to Tree Hill where she was rejuvinated. Her time over the past weeks with William were the best she had in years, and she finally remembered happiness. Lucas was happy for her despite knowing the consequences of what she was continuesly moving farther and farther into, but she wouldn't hear it and just couldn't stop smiling. When Brooke arrived back in Tree Hill she was barely able to stop herself from paying the driver more coin to get to see her children quicker, but when she did arrive she and her brother were met in the keep the other members of their family, but most importantly to Brooke was the moment Riley ran to her, and Peyton carried Sigmund to her side. Settling back into life in Tree Hill she would meet with Morrigan of whom had become once again very close to her, and despite seeing a change in Morrigan she brushed it aside, and got closer to Morrigan. She would be tricked by Morrigan into visiting a shop that she didn't know what was, but it was done so that agents of the Order of the Green Dragon would see her enter, and thus report back to William that she was in fact entering a shop that specialized in poisons. Having framed Brooke of the attempted murder of Bella Swan Morrigan disapeared for a time, where in she was visited by Flemeth of whom gave her a new task which was to menipulate the situation that was coming from the arrival of the Man of Fear.

William says goodbye


William left nearly two months later from Lucerne in order to say goodbye to Brooke. Jasper, Edward and Emmett had all nearly demanded to be there for their friend, but Edward was needed elsewhere, Emmett was dealing with problems in the west, and Jasper was needed to protect the household while he was gone so he refused them and took only Leven. Leven and William travelled by horseback with a troop of nearly two hundred House Lovie troops, and nearly the same number of Martell and Golden Dragon men. Travelling the road he would further confide in Leven of whom by this point was basically the only person who knew everything he had ever done, and was the only person he had never lied to about his actions. As they reached Tree Hill the two would tell eachother that they loved the other, and then she held his hand briefly as they entered the city that would always be a reminder of his greatest love, and greatest mistake. Entering Scott estate he knew Dan wasn't there as he had commanded him to travel eastward to host a small squire tournmant in order to remove him from the city when he arrived, but waiting for him was Lucas and his beloved Brooke. Saying hellos to Lucas and the other assembled nobles he left Leven and walked with Bella into the palace where they would hold hands once they were out of sight. Realizing there wasn't going to be anyway to soften the blow he got right into it not realizing that Leven had snuck into the palace grounds and was listening into their conversation while she had commanded a massive gaurd of the palace grounds to keep out anyone else from hearing. William would begin to cry as he spoke the words, and Brooke upon this enveloped him into a hug as well crying as she knew what he was here for the moment he had started crying. As William explained everything to her she broke down into tears even further and begged him not to leave her and promised him that she wasn't trying to kill Bella, but it was too late and she knew it. Eventually pulling away from her he left the palace grounds and left behind him a broken Brooke Scott of whom lay unable to move against the side of the wall.

Goodbye son


Leaving behind a broken Brooke Scott William used all his remaining strength to enter the inner palace and find his two sons. Followed closely by Leven she stopped him in a hallway and as he tried to get away she just hugged him, and he broke for a moment hugging into her and not wanting to move. He didn't move it was Leven that released him and smiled kissing him on the lips before pulling him down the hallway towards the sounds of laughter. Finding Sigmund playing with Lucas and Haley Leven left to get Sigmund, and William bid all the servents leave. Haley, and Lucas left leaving father and son alone together one last time. Riley wanted to know what they would be doing together while he was in Tree Hill as whenever he visited he would spend time with Riley, but William was forced to tell him that this time he wasn't going to be able to, and really had just wanted to say goodbye to his son. Riley begin to cry realizing that this goodbye was more permenet as he saw Leven bring Sigmund into the room and William cradle Sigmund while staring into his eyes.

Riley and William would hug for many minutes, but finally he pulled himself away from another person he loved dearly kissing his two sons on the forehead before leaving the room, and Tree Hill for the last time. Riley would get his brother and find his mother of whom he knew would be in the garden as that was where she always went when she was broken by things like this. Finding her still crying in the garden he felt anger towards his father for not being stronger. Anger towards Bella and Alice for forcing his father to do this. And in the end anger towards everyone for not loving him as much as others who were no more deserving then he was of love.

Daughter of Flemeth

For Brooke Scott life was begininning to become depressing in a terrible way before the return of Andrew, but with his return it was as if all the things that troubled her were distant memories of trouble long forgotten. Despite the fact that she understood that Andrew was never going to leave his wife on his own, she was now driven to end the marriage. In this drive she became involved with a women named Heather Yearl of Forks who told Brooke that she could create a potion that if injested by the Queen would make her infertile and thus her plan to make Andrew leave Bella would have true grounds. She knew that this plan would work in her mind, but she needed a way to actually implement the plan and for that she needed someone that hated Bella and was willing to give her a toxin. She had trouble finding someone like this but she remembered as a young girl that her friend Thomas Nighting had mentioned during torture that his family had used a women in Tree Hill as the one that was responsible for these acts, and with this girl in mind Brooke went about finding her. Brooke during this time was consumed with her hatred of Bella Swan, and despite the fact that she understood everything she was planning to do, she continued down the same dark path until she finally found the alchemist. The alchemist told her that for sufficiant funds she would provide her with the poison, and Brooke immediatly gave her the poison, and then was told to return in three days and the potion would be done.



As she continued down this path she became watched by Morrigan who was a daughter of Flemeth, and had been ordered to keep her eye open for any females who could be used to get close to the King of Lucerne, and with knowledge now of the affair Morrigan sent word to Flemeth who proceeded to work out plans to turn Brooke Scott into one of her pawns. Morrigan believed that this was the only way to stop Brooke from killing Bella of whom she felt didn't deserve to die, and of whom Morrigan believed was a more effective Queen then what Brooke would make. Thus she only did the bidding of Flemeth because she couldn't find a better way to stop Brooke. Morrigan would slip vials of poison into Brooke's drinks over the course of several days of which hightened her presence in the Fade, and made it horrifyingly easy for someone within the Fade to menipulate her. Flemeth responded back very quickly with the news that a Dark Man would be coming soon, and that she should make sure that everything was prepared because they only had a few more months before the Lucernians and their Magi shield would block their ability to move freely in the same way they had always done. Morrigan knew that she had signed Brooke Scott's death warrant and for this reason she went to Brooke in order to explain to her why she was going to die.

I went to open the door when I felt a pain so deep and so entirely in my body that I wondered whether I was dying. Was this how it would end? Would my life truly end walking to meet Lucas for a walk in the gardens? The pain became unbearable and I fell forward through the door onto the ground, which felt like water as I seemingly fell through it.

I don't know how long I was asleep but when I woke my face was in the dirt, and I coughed to remove it from my mouth. "Dear daughter you have truly made quite the mess of your dress." The horrible sound of her voice was enough to spring me from my coughing fit and bow beneath her as I had always been trained to do.

"Mother it is wonderful to see you. Where are we meeting?"

"I have pulled you into the fade sweet daughter. I'm sorry that you feel like death, but you must remember that you are dead."

"Yes of course mother. I am sorry for my failure in coming through." Her reminder of my death brought me back hundreds of years to the first time I had known what true life was like. Walking through the lush fields of northern Lucerne with my brothers I had known pure happiness then, and it was an insult to my brother's memory that I was this person now.

"Mention nothing of it Ashley, the time for apologies is over. I have a task for you." Sayin that sent chills down my spine. I wondered what it was like for a monster to do the bidding of a monster, because surely it would have been easier for her to convinse them. Then of course I remembered she didn't have to convinse me of anything. If she asked me to I would be helpless to do whatever she wanted, such was her control over me and my supposed sisters.

"What may I do for you mother?" I hated her. I wanted her to die, but what was I to do. Like a perfect soldier I couln't speak the words in anger towards her. It was simply not possible, the words just wouldn't come.

"You have become quite close to the Scott daughter I see."

"She is a friend yes. I have been ruining her reputation as you said to do, and it has led to many believing she is trying to kill Bella Swan. The King my great grand nephew visited just recently and told her he would never see her again." I wondered whether my beloved brother would even recegnize me when I went to heaven. Would he be waiting for me for the final fight against Aerene only to find me a ghost of myself.

"Thats very good work Ashley." She moved closer to me and pulled me up finally allowing me to stand in front of her, but I knew it was expected that I remained half bowed in her presence. Standing up though I was able to see that the Dark Man was in the corner, and seeing him this close frightened me. A man of nothing but pure evil, it was like an aura being sent around being this close to him, and I wished to remove myself from his proximity. "My daughter I need you to give Brooke these vials." She pulled vials from her cloak and handed them to me. "They will allow Mann von dunkler to see her perfectly in the Fade and quicken what might take longer then we have time for."

I had done this twice before and thus I was confused why we needed the vials. "Mother why do we need to quicken the pace. Surely the Man of Dark is capable of doing his job is he not." Despite insulting him he stood motionless and if he was insulted or could even feel that he made no motion to show it.

"No need to be rude to your brother Ashley." He was no brother to me. I had three brothers and none of them were this failure of a person. What ever he was once was gone, and now this Dark Man was nothing more then a shadow eating away at the light trying to taste whatever he once was. "The Lucernians are constructing a shield around the capital, and once that is done they plan to expand it out to other major cities of which one will surely be Tree Hill. If this should happen I don't have to tell you what would happen to your brother."

"They would surely kill him."

"They would murder your brother without a second thought." I smirked at him thinking on his death, but still he didn't say or do a thing that would indicate he was even awake. "So take these vials and do what you must do to make her drink them. Your brother will arrive within the days after this happens."

"Death"

 * Brooke_Scott(7.png"It was like looking at the most horrifying creature imagineable in your mind. It had no face that I could understand other then the hate filled eyes that just stared back at me. He whispered to me in my mind telling me darker and darker things. I begged him to leave. I pleaded for him to just tell me what he wanted, and when he told me I wished I had never asked. He told me I had to die, and that he wouldn't ever leave until I was dead. Needless to say I knew I had to see William. He would save me."


 * -Brooke Scott

When Brooke returned to the alchemist three days later she found the potion ready for her, but as she walked out of the house she ran into a man clothed completely in black robes, and wearing a mask that showed nothing but the outline of his pure red eyes. This scared her, and she screamed to the crowd for them stop the man, and the crowd couldn't see him so they attacked a man that was just standing by her, and nearly killed him to protect Brooke. As she watched the Dark Man just stood there and watched. He followed her home, and she attempted to get him away but as she did this she realized that she was the only that could see him. She knew that if this was Magi related the only person who might be able to help her was Morrigan so she ran to find her all the while being followed by the Dark Man. When she arrived at the home of Morrigan she could clearly see him, but Morrigan played it off as if she couldn't and this sealed the fate of Brooke's sanity.


 * THE_dark_Man1.jpg"When Morrigan couldn't see him, it was like an alarm went off in my mind that told me what I had feared all along. I was insane. Somewhere along the line I had lost my mind trying to kill Bella. I knew in that moment that this was once again something I could overcome. I could ignore him. I could accept that he wasn't actually there, and I could move past this."


 * -Brooke Scott

She from that point on refused to accept he was there and went about her next days attempting to ignore him, but he begin to threaten those close to her, and she became scared once again to the point that she fled from him as fast as she could before she would take a carriage northward. She at first thought she had gotten away from him, but when she arrived in Lucerne she saw him waiting in the center of the gate, and knew that her time was almost gone. She entered Lucerne and when she reached the Cloud Tower she was met at the entrance by Alice Lovie of whom had had heard of her arrival in the town, and had moved to keep it a secret. Alice would take Brooke into the Sky Towers, and the two would finally get another chance at attacking eachother. The two would at first trade jabs at eachother verbally but as the fight continued and Bella arrived the fight became physical as Brooke physically attacked Brook the point of all of her rage. As this happened Emmett McCarty barged in and was able ot get Brooke under control, and got her out of the Skytowers, and towards the Kings Keep where William was.


 * Brooke_Scott_Large4.jpg"I thought that when I found him he would take out his sword and kill the Dark Man. I believed that the Dark Man would be gone once I found him, but when I opened my eyes and saw him I realized how wrong I was."


 * -Brooke Scott

As she arrived at the Kings Keep she found William standing at a table surrounded by both Jasper Hale, and Robb Starke. As she approached completely in tears he took her into his arms and took her into a side room. In the room she continued to cry, and he couldn't get her to explain what was wrong, and it was as this was happening that she opened her eyes and saw that the Dark Man was in the room with them. This time when she saw him she didn't cry out or try and get away from him, she just accepted that she was gone. In that moment she looked away from the Dark Man and back to the William, and she would smile at him before kissing him on the lips. The two would be intimate one more time, before she said her goodbyes to him, and when he tried to follow her, he was stopped by Alice Lovie of whom didn't want him to get in trouble with the people if they saw what was happening. Watching her walk away was one of the toughest things he had ever done, but what happened next would be far more painful to not just William but to many people throughout the valley.


 * Brooke_Scott_Small6.jpg"I left the Kings Keep and just walked. I walked through the gates of Lucerne, and into the fields beyond. I don't know how long I walked before I finally saw him again. When I did he made a movement that told me to follow him. When I did follow him he took me to a waterfall I had heard William tell me about once before. He didn't have to tell me what to do I knew already. I don't remember quite what I said in my final goodbye to William but as I punged over the side of the waterfall I felt free of the Dark Man for the first time in a long time."


 * -Brooke Scott

Brooke would leave the Kings Keep and walk for nearly an entire day before finally the Dark Man brought her towards a waterfall where he waited beside her for her to kill herself. Brooke in that moment took off the necklase that William had given her all those years before, and held it close to herself for a time before she finally set it down on the ground beside what she assumed would be the site that they would believe she jumped from. When she finally did jump off the side she carried with her the curse he had done to her, and in this moment she became a "Daughter of Flemeth".

Waking up to a Nightmare
Main Article : Nightmares
 * Morrigan_Strange_up_close.jpg"I wanted to cry as I awoke in a dark cave. Everything around me was scary whether it was the skinned bodies, or the monsterous dogs that walked or paced around me. I wanted to go home. I wanted William. All of it seemed so pointless in the darkness. It wasn't just that I was alone, and that a part of me didn't feel like I was normal anymore. It wasn't just the fact that I was surrounded by monsters. It was the fact that Morrigan was a friend of mine, and now she was completely without anyone to resist her in Lucerne. The damage she might do pained me more then my own pain ever possibly could."


 * -Brooke Scott

The next thing Brooke felt was the dark feeling of waking up laying naked in the middle of a giant cave. As she opened her eyes she saw a skinned body strapped to the roof of the cave, and this caused her to scream which then brought growling to fill the cave. As she looked for the source of the growling all she could see in the pitch black walls of the cave was cage doors, and peering back from the doors were horrifying red eyes. As she screamed and moved away from the eyes she ran backwards into a small body that she should have knocked over with the force she jumped back with, but the body didn't even move. As she turned around she saw it was Morrigan of whom had a sad look on her face, but for Brooke she ignored this and held onto the one person she recegnized. Morrigan allowed her to hold her close before she begin to explain to Brooke what had happened to her.

"Brooke we need to talk." As I heard her speak I couldn't make my head move off her shoulder. It all just felt so heavy, and there was a dull ache that sprang throughout my entire body. I know that my mind drifted into sleep, but was pulled up by Morrigan who held my head to stare at her eyes. "Brooke there are things going on here, that you need to understand."

"Morrigan...what's happened..." I tried to speak but the words just wouldn't flow out.

"It's alright Brooke. Your mind is coming to terms with what's happened to you. You need to remain calm or else the pain will get worse." She held her hand against my temple, and for a moment as she did this I felt relief from the pain.

"What's happened..." I wanted to finish but as I spoke she withdrew her hand and the pain became momentarily unbearable.

"The truth isn't easy to hear Brooke. I wish I had a story that ended with you returning home, and being with everything that you love. I wish I could tell you something positive." As she spoke she led me to the wall and rested me closer to wall where I slumped against it. "I just wish that I could Brooke. And trust me on the fact that this doesn't come easy for me."

"Just tell...just tell me." tears were flowing down my cheek as it was clear that she was going to let me know something terrible.

"Brooke your dead." I waited for her to finish but instead she slumped to her knees before lifting her head and staring back at me. "Its not as simple as just death though Brooke. Your now what she calls her daughters."

"Who calls?"

"She calls herself Flemeth, and she is a dark Magi of unimagenable powers. She has taken to capturing young women like you and I, and then she uses us to gain a foothold into places, and people that she needs. You will understand more soon, but what I need you to focus on now is the fact that you can't try and escape. If you do you may get miles, you may travel years on the road, and during this time you will think you have escaped. But what I want you to know is that your now connected to her in a way that allows her to know where you are no matter where you go. There is no escape from this place, and you need to understand that." I was too shocked to anwser, but she moved with a swiftness that was near instant and she held my face in her hands with a pleading look on her face. "Tell me you understand Brooke. Because if you try you will waste away years of what are going to be a very important time for us. Tell me you understand."

I didn't understand. I couldn't believe what she was saying, I mean she's telling me I'm some kind of hellish demon and I was supposed to just listen. But it was the conviction that she said she would help us escape that made me listen. "I understand."

Touched by Lightning


Following her meeting of William in the skies before he met with dragons Brooke Scott led her unicorn to the tips of the Lucernian Mountains and as she did she got off the unicorn and walked along the snowy mountain before laying down and sobbing. It wasn't minutes before she was interrupted in her crying by the arrival of Flemeth, Morrigan, Lord Vodin, and the Shadow Man of which Lord Vodin would taunt her over the fact that she was weeping so much blood. Flemeth would gently tell her that her goal would be to entice William Lovie III. into travelling into the mountains and meeting her and she would use these moments to lower his guard and once the chance came she would kill him. With Brooke now known to William she wanted to run away, as she knew that the entire reason she was being allowed to speak to him was because Flemeth wanted to see him dead. Back in Lucerne William had returned from his visit with the dragons completely rejuvenated by the fact that both the meeting had gone well, but also the fact that dream or not he had seen Brooke. William would take Keenklaw into the mountains following a feeling of where she was, and after days of searching he finally found her. When Brooke saw Keenklaw and knew that William had found her she was both heartbroken, and beyond excited by the fact that she was going to be near William again.



Brooke though was helpless and despite the fact that she wanted to tell him every time she she him, she was physically incapable of resisting the will of Flemeth. This meant that Brooke would wait patiently at the cottage that William had told her about high up in the mountains, and as hours went by she hated herself more and more. Despite this hatred a part of herself was returning to her, and she couldn't understand what was happening, but as she lived out those days in depression she never questioned what could be happening to her.

Release
Free from her prison somewhat she followed the pull that she felt since Odin's intervention and found herself after months of travel in the Mountains of Valhalla where she was met by Odin once again.
