The Man in the Machine

She thought that bringing him back to life was impossible. It turns out she was wrong. When Nych died, Willow had only known him for a few days. He was just a face, a fleeting memory, a possible future that had died within her college days, just like so many others had. With his brain in a box and a few pictures of him for reference, she began working on trying to bring him back to life. She couldn't do it. It was too difficult. Nothing was working. She couldn't bring him back. Then she met Marcus. The man she'd have children with. It always felt just a little bit... Wrong. Like there was something nagging in the back of her mind that this wasn't right, she shouldn't be with him. And now, when he starts abusing her and her young daughter, well... Things go haywire. Blake is called in. Time travel is proven possible. Willow begins to believe in a God. And above all... She gets the one thing back that she has missed the most.
