Chapter 4 - Life goes on.

Photobucket

She was lucky to make it out with her son alive. She had died twice but was revived both times. "Never again", she mumbled as she left the hospital with Kyle wrapped up in a crocheted knit blanket her mother-in-law made. One boy, one girl it was perfect.

Photobucket

Years passed by fairly uneventful. Sarah and Lane had just celebrated their 5 year anniversary and were as happy as ever. Little Charity had a big birthday coming up. She was entering the teenage years. Sarah couldn't believe her daughter was that old. In many ways it made her feel old, she still had so much yet to accomplish.

Photobucket

Charity aged into an interesting looking individual. Not nearly as bad as Sarah, so Sarah was content. Thankfully the ugly gene was working its way on out. Life was good, Charity was very smart and won many chess matches. Sarah couldn't wait to see what was in store for her.

Photobucket

Uh oh, this is an all too familiar scene for Sarah. She could not believe this was happening again. She had the most traumatic birthing experience with Kyle that she vowed to never have more kids, yet here she is with morning sickness just like her last pregnancy.

Photobucket

It was too late to turn back now. She chose to accept this pregnancy and try to enjoy it. Although the fear of labor was constantly in the back of her mind, this pregnancy felt very different from the last one. She hoped that was a good sign of things to come.

Photobucket

Charity loved her little brother Kyle. With Sarah busy preparing for the new arrival, Charity helped her brother with many of his firsts. She was so excited when he was all potty trained. No more diapers!!

Photobucket

It was that time yet again! Sarah felt the first pain and a fear rushed through her veins. She said a silent prayer and Lane got the car ready for the hospital. Although afraid, Sarah was very excited to meet this little one....or two...

Photobucket

Sarah was happy to have the birth past her. This one went much smoother than the last, and she had twins! Their names, James and Jordan. Sarah was going to have her hands full with four children, but she was excited to get home. She missed Kyle and Charity so much.

How will Sarah cope with four? Are there any more babies in her future?

Chapter 3 - It could be so perfect...

Photobucket

Life as a single mom was hard, but hard doesn't begin to describe it. Sarah about lost it during the potty training phase. She had to bribe Charity to get her on the toilet. Hoping that things would get easier, Sarah endured. That's all she had known to do in her life.

Photobucket

Awww...the mystery man. Their relationship had blossomed into so much over the course of a year. Unsuspecting one evening, Lane decided to pop the question! Sarah was so very excited. He was a much better man than Xander could ever be. Would this be her happy ending? She sure hoped so.

Photobucket

Prison life, Sarah knew it would happen eventually. Being a criminal for a living does have disadvantages. Thank God Lane had married her and was able to take care of Charity. The twist of the story, Lane had no idea that Sarah was a criminal. She had lied and told him she worked for the government on top secret cases. The call she made from prison was to tell him she would be away for a few days on a mission. If he only knew....

She made it home just in time to see Charity age up into a little girl. Although she wasn't the cutest thing, she wasn't nearly as hideous as her mother. Sarah was very happy about that. They celebrated the big day as a perfect family and Sarah tucked her little girl in for the night.

Photobucket

The next morning Sarah had quite the surprise. She knew this feeling all to well, there would be a new little one on the way. She couldn't wait to tell Lane. After 3 years of marriage, he was more than ready to have a child of his own.

Photobucket

It was a difficult pregnancy for Sarah, she had turned to skin and bones. The morning sickness never did go away, she could barely get down toast that Lane would try to force her to eat everyday. She was glad it was nearing the end.

Photobucket

Later that week she went into labor. It was intense! They say your second one is easier, but not for Sarah. She knew she needed to get to the hospital immediately. Something did not feel right about this. Lane scooped her up and off they went.

Will Sarah be okay? Find out in Chapter 4....

Chapter 2 - New Beginnings....

Photobucket

Xander wanted to make it work, desperately. Working overtime, since Sarah was near giving birth, he bought her a brand new kitchen. Sarah loved to cook. He knew it wasn't everything she wanted, but he hoped it would suffice. She still hadn't forgiven him for the betrayal. She wasn't sure she could.

Photobucket

The baby's coming, the baby's coming!! Xander was in a panic. They lived far out in the country and he hoped they would make it to the hospital. Although it was Sarah's first baby, she was surprisingly handling the situation well. She was so excited to meet the little one she had felt all throughout the pregnancy.

Photobucket

There was no time to make it to the hospital, little Charity Hilton arrived with a home birth. Thankfully mother and baby were safe. She picked the name Charity after all the evil ones she liked to donate to. It seemed very fitting in a twisted sort of way. She was a beautiful baby and Sarah hoped it would stay that way.

Photobucket

Deep in her mind, she knew she had to leave Xander. Xander was broken, too broken for Sarah. Afterall, as evil as Sarah was she wanted Charity raised to be strong. She decided that being poor was no reason to stay with a man. She quickly learned how to fish to put food on the table. Charity's birthday was quickly approaching. She was going to kick him out after the party.

Photobucket

It was awful!! Of course Xander was off on one of his long phone conversations with a woman and left the cake unattended. He nearly burnt the house to the ground. Fireman arrived just in time to extinguish the rising flames. They were able to barely afford a new cake for the party.

Photobucket

Toddlerhood, Sarah was looking forward to spending all her time with Charity. Xander moved out on his own. He told Sarah he wanted some space. Sarah was realived she didn't have to initiate his departure. Who knows what the man was capable of. Afterall, she realized she didn't really know him to begin with.

Photobucket

Weeks went by without hearing from Xander. Sarah had met a new man at the park while taking Charity on a walk. She had plans for a dinner date with him and wanted her baggage gone. She made a phone call to Xander inviting him over. He obliged, gladly. Once inside she started to talk, "Xander......we need...umm...". Before she could finish he blurted out how much he still loved her and how he was moving back in. She cut him off and screamed loudly, "I want a divorce!!" Xander stood there shocked. Without saying another word he turned around and walked through the door never to be seen again.

Who is this mystery man? How will Charity turn out as a child? Find out in Chapter 3.

Chapter 1 - It wasn't much, as matter of fact nothing at all.......

Sarah decided to make the best of what would otherwise be a crappy situation. She sat down and figured out the things she truly needed. Being that she was a pretty good thief a toilet, shower and bed would do for now.

Photobucket

Knowing that she needed a roof over her head as winter was fast approaching, she headed over to a local hideout for thieves. She had received the name of a local in town during her last visit to jail. She had heard things were pretty good for thieves in Sunset Valley. They offered her a job as a decoy. The pay wasn't much, but enough to get by. Besides, she could do side jobs it wasn't as if she was on the clock.

Photobucket

Meet Xander Clavell. A loser might describe him, but he was worse than that. He was a hot-headed, inappropriate mooch, typical dating material for Sarah. They had met at work (if you call criminal activity a job). He was strong, handsome and Sarah couldn't believe he was actually interested in her.

Photobucket

Things weren't going so well at work. Beyond that, she had resorted to rummaging through trash cans and stealing neighbors fruits/vegetables. Xander was a shoulder to cry on. Sarah could turn to him for anything and their relationship was more than friendship. Surprisingly she got the courage to propose marriage. He gladly accepted and they had a quaint little ceremony on the front yard.

Photobucket

It would appear he was as broke as Sarah. Although she was able to put a roof over her head, they still did not have much.

Photobucket

It didn't take long for Sarah to learn yet another trait about her dearest husband. She really wished she wouldn't have found out this way. Sarah walked in on him in bed with Tamara Donner, another fellow co-worker. She really shouldn't have expected much from a bunch of criminals, but she thought Xander was beyond this.

Photobucket

She was working up the courage to break it off with Xander, but thoughts ran through her mind. "What if I never find someone like him", "What if I never find ANYONE?!?". Before she had time to process how to handle the situation a surprise was in store. Sarah was pregnant.

Photobucket

Will Sarah stay or go? Boy or Girl? Cute or Ugly? Find out in Chapter 2

Hilton Legacy

This is the story of the Hilton you haven't seen or heard of. If you are expecting a fairytale or happy sim, turn around now! Her name, Sarah Hilton. She was born with some hideous features. Because of the pain she had to endure, she became quite mean and hostile. She was totally out of control by the time she reached High School. Her family tried to tame her, but couldn't. It resulted in the family disowning her at the age of 18. She was given a meager $1,300 in cash and a large empty lot to start a life. She had one wish, for her future generations to be beautiful. Is that possible? Find out what her children look like in my first Sims 3 Legacy Challenge.
