THREE YEARS AFTER THE GRADUATION OF THE ORIGINAL BRAX PACK (AS THEY WERE DUBBED BY THEIR PEERS AND TEACHERS), SOUTH BRAXTON HIGH WAS RAZED TO THE GROUND IN A FREAK BLAZE CAUSED BY AN ELECTRICAL FAULT. MOST OF THE BUILDING SUCCUMBED TO THE FLAMES IN THE MIDDLE OF THE DRIEST JULY ON RECORD; LUCKILY, THE STUDENTS WERE BUSY ENJOYING THEIR SUMMER BREAK. WHAT WAS LEFT - THE GHOST OF A ONCE-THRIVING STUDENT HUB - SERVED WHAT WAS LEFT OF THE SMALL TOWN'S DWINDLING YOUTH POPULATION.
<BR><BR>
TO SAY "ALL THAT CHANGED WERE THE FACES" WOULD BE A LIE. THE PACK KIDS GREW UP, BECAME ADULTS, AND HAD KIDS OF THEIR OWN. SOME LEFT TOWN BEFORE, SOME AFTER, BUT WHAT WAS CERTAIN WAS THAT THE PACK WAS NO MORE. THEIR PARENTS DUBBED IT 'THE GREAT DIASPORA'; AND THAT'S HOW IT FELT, FOR MOST. AFTER SOME YEARS HAD PASSED, IT WAS THE FUNERAL OF ANTIGONE 'DAISY' SAUNDERS THAT BROUGHT THE PRODIGAL PACK HOME; OR, AT LEAST, MOST OF THEM. RECONCILIATIONS WERE REACHED OVER THE GRAVE OF A FALLEN FRIEND, AND A CORE GROUP OF FAMILIES FORMED FROM THE EMBERS OF THE THE FAMOUS BRAX PACK DECIDED TO RE-BUILD SOUTH BRAXTON.
<BR><BR>
HOUSES WERE BUILT; BUSINESSES WERE STARTED OR RE-STARTED; PLANS WERE MADE FOR A NEW SCHOOL THAT WOULD SERVE THE NEXT GENERATION IN YEARS TO COME. SOME OF THESE PROSPECTIVE PUPILS WERE ALREADY TODDLERS; OTHERS WERE NEWBORNS, OR EMBRYOS IN THE WOMB. THE COMPLETION AND INAUGURATION OF SOUTH BRAXTON WAS COMPLETED, AND COINCIDED WITH THREE BIRTHS, TWO MARRIAGES, AND ONE ACRIMONIOUS DIVORCE. SUDDENLY THE VERITABLE PEACE WROUGHT BY THE THIRTYSOMETHING CREW ONCE KNOWN AS THE BRAX PACK WAS STARTING TO SLIP OUT FROM UNDER THEIR FEET ONCE MORE.
<BR><BR>
AND, GIVEN A LITTLE TIME AND A LITTLE MOMENTUM, THEIR CHILDREN WOULD COME TO SHOW THEM THAT PEACE IS REALLY JUST A MIRAGE.
