The Sinclair Estate

[takeyouaway]

Walking around to the different consoles, he helped to switch up everything to prepare for landing. Sitting in the other chair, he watched as they burnt through the atmo. The ship shook a bit, but not much. it was practically new and a good ship.

Just above the ground, he got back up and started to help with the setting on the ground. They were in a private cargo area that Laline owned. Turning as he headed out, he led Sylar out. "Welcoem to the home." Seeign Betty in the cargo bay, he rushed to the woman and hugged her. "How is the batty? Any word?"

--------------------------------------------------

Betyt hugged Alec. She had missed his presence around. The horses were a bit more antsy. She had a lovely emal cooking for the whole group on board. her wedidng rings that she still wore shown on her finger. "Hello. She's going crazy with this ball. And jsut the usual. She's comign for her stuff." Her voice was low. She didn't know how many people knew.

Looking, she saw the caskets. Betty's smile faded a bit. "We have everything dug up. Where is this new boy?" She saw quit a few new guys here. Laline would be happy. But some needed haircuts or everything tied back neatly.

[rourkey]

"Thats Me" Said Sylar standing up off of the crate he was sat on. "My name is Sylar James, Pleased to meet you ma'am" He held out his hand to shake.

[takeyouaway]

Betty moved forward, She shook the kids hand. "Hello, I'm Betty. The batty old cook. I'm sorry for your loss." There was a private grave out back. He could come and go over the years as he pleased.

--------------------------------------------------

Alec shook his head. "You're not batty. If your batty, I'm batty." Nodding to Sylar and then Max, he smiled. "They know. But that's it. They saod they'd help." He sent a look to Max to let him know to be careful with his words. Max tended to let things slip. Max just looked away, which worked all the same. THe crew was unloading things around him. Alec and Max could go with Betty to the graveyard after if he wanted.

[rourkey]

"Thanks, But if you wouldnt mind i would like to bury them as soon as possible so they can be at peace" He gestured towards the makeshift coffins.

[takeyouaway]

Alex nodded. "Yeah, we can." Motioning to a few guys, one being Max, they went over. They would carry the coffins. Sylar could help carry whichever he wanted. Him and Max each had ahold of the ends of his father's. Leading the way, the air was sill with remorse and regret.

--------------------------------------------------

Betty was a kind woman. She was older, so she could sympathize with death. Her husband had died. Wrapping a kind arm around the boys should, she spoke to him only. "We have a priest here. He works at the estate exclusively." Must be nice to have money. "So it can be more personal." The graveyard was not far off. Just over the hill. She led Sylar towards it. There were two freshly dug holes. Gravestones were already there as Alec had sent all the information to her the day he contacted her.

[rourkey]

Sylar followed the others and picked up one end of his mothers coffin. "Thank you so much for all your help it is much appreciated" he said to Betty. He then headed in the direction of the graveyard eager to ensure his parents were put to rest.

[takeyouaway]

Betty nodded. It was really no problem. "All the plots are free for staff or anyone hired here. Setting your parents to peace is worth it." Opening the gate, she led everyone in there. The priest was already there. He nodded to them all. As the caskets were set on the poles. Then the preacher began about the family's life....at least what was sent to Betty. It was all very beautiful for what little they had.

"We thought we'd let their son close the ceremony." The priest looked at the boy, wondering if he'd want to say anything or not.

--------------------------------------------------

Alec set the father's casket down on the poles that would lower the caskets after. Betty was so busy for a cook, doing more things then just what was required. She had done a good job. The roses on the headstones were a lovely touch. Something ceremonial here.

[rourkey]

Sylar was a little taken aback by being asked to close the ceremony "Um...." He started. "My parents were the best parents a man could ask for very kind and generous most of the time and stern when they needed to be. They didnt deserve to die like this but at least now they can rest." He looked round "And it is good that they are to be buried in such a beautiful place as this. Thank you all."

[takeyouaway]

Betty had tears in her own eyes. Even after all this time, she still remembers losing her own husband. Even after all this time, she still wore the wedding rings. NOdding at him, she watched the caskets being lowered. But she felt angry when Jacob cam running down the hill to talk to one of them.

"Betty! You have a wave from the butcher you went on a date with." Betty hadn't been dating, so this was the code that Bella was sending a wave, but didn't want Alec there. At least for now. Nodding, she smiled kindly. "I'm so sorry. He just won't leave me alone." Patting Sylar on the arm, she nodded again. "I'm sorry for all of this. But you've found a resting spot for a third person." Then she ran out, hoping Bella hadn't left.

[out-brdige...erm in a sense]

--------------------------------------------------

Alec helped with lowering the caskets. For on the spot, that was a touching speech. Once done, he patted Sylar's back. "Well done mate. They'd be proud." Listening to Jacob, he was disappointed that it wasn't Bella. But he was confused. "You're dating?" But Betty had run off. "Shoot." Then he faced everyone before him. "Well, would you like time alone before they are buried?"

[rourkey]

Sylar smiled appreciatively at Alec " No, Its fine" Said Sylar reaching for a shovel " I would like to get this done as soon as possible". Nad he began to fill the grave from the nearby pile of dirt.

[takeyouaway]

Grabbing another shovel, he nodded the other gentlemen off. This they would do just the two of them. The other two would not understand burying your parents. Not like Alec and Sylar. Not like Betty. Once his grave was done, he wiped his forehead. It wasn't extremely hot, but a think line of sweat had formed. The priest had left to talk to Laline. The older woman would want to see the new crew later. But Alec would wait until SYlar wanted this.

[rourkey]

Sylar finished his grave at about the same time as Alec. "Thanks again for everything" I would probably still be up in that gorram ship if it wasnt for you" He wiped his forehead off on his sleeve " Is there some place i can wash and change before i meet my new employer?" He asked "I wouldnt make a great first impression looking like this."

[takeyouaway]

Alec shrugged. "No problem." Pointing to just off to the side of the stables, Alec nodded. There was the workers area. "Come on. That's where you'll stay. Laline wants you perminatly, so you and Max will be here. Everyone else will be at a motel in town." Leading the way, he grabbed both shovels to put back in the stables along the way. Setting them outside the fence, he petted the horses before moving on and opening the door. A hustle of activity was going on.

Moving from everyone, he opened a door to a nice looking bathroom. "You can wash up here. All your bags are already in your room down the hall."

[rourkey]

"Thanks so much" He said and just as he was about to go into the bathroom a thought struck him "I dont have any smart looking clothes with me most of them are still floating in the ship have you got anything i can borrow?"

[takeyouaway]

Alec nodded. "Sure do." Going, he went to his own room upstairs and grabbed a nice button up and some slacks. They were about the same waist length, so it should work. Just in case, he grabbed a belt. Coming back down, he handed the folded clothes to Syalr. "Here keep em. I have a ton." Alec had always worn them to impress Bella. He had a closet full.
