Hotel Cryptid [completed]

Cecelia's story

The next day, Juniper is up bright and early and working the front desk. She had asked Dahlia to check on Tabitha before her shift started and if she is awake, to teach her about the hotel. This damned hotel.

Dahlia does what Juniper asks of her and checks on Tabitha, who's humming to herself while laying down. "Tabitha?", Dahlia asks into the room, which is dark. "Hello?", Tabitha asks while sitting up. "Hi Tabitha!", She turns on the light, "it's the morning! Let's get you ready for the day". Walking to the kitchen, they see Cecelia sitting there. Messing with some cards. Tabitha looks at her. "Who's that?", She asks Dahlia. "Oh, that's Cecelia", Dahlia explains, "why not go talk to her?". Tabitha walks over to Cecelia and looks at the cards

"Hey Missy. Your the newbie, right?", Cecelia asks and Tabitha nods in response. After a bit of talking, Tabitha asks Cecelia about her past, where she is from, and how she ended up here. "Oh, sweetheart, that's a little rude to ask-", Dahlia starts, but Cecelia interupts. "No, no. It's fine. I can tell", Cecelia says, leaning back in her chair. Not many new about Cecelia's past.

"I'm from New Orleans, Louisiana. I was born to Samuel Facer and Lilly Joan Facer. Both were amazing, my father was a magician, so he traveled a lot. My mother, Lilly Joan, was a beautiful woman. She taught me and my sister, Melinda, French. So I do know French. Eventually, I grew up, but my mother had passed when I was fifteen years old. Which devastated me, Melina and my father. I got married at twenty two years old, to my husband, Malcom. He was a sweetheart. Then, I had twin boys, Space and Ace. See, I grew up in a gambling family, so I always loved gambling and card games. My boys were my life. Then, we went to this damned hotel. I was in the casino, and", she stopped there, starting to cry a little.

"And what?", Tabitha Pushed for the answer. "And I died", she tells. She moves a card across her face to show her face, but different. Her face had all white eyes and there were purple veins going up her neck. Tabitha gasped and she moved the card back to show her face normal. "It's why that casino is called 'Venom Casino' and has snake decor all over", she explains. "Can I meet your sons?", Tabitha asks. "Oh, they're all grown up now. To be honest, they probably have children already", Cecelia sighs sadly.

After a while, Tabitha is playing in the Kraken floor, swimming with Aria. Dahlia's showing a family around. A family walks in. They have black hair with a white streak around the middle of the hair. It's two adult males that have that hair, and a little girl that has that hair. There are also two woman, but they don't have that hair. There is also an older man with dark brown hair and dark skin, he looks to be the father of the two males. They walk up to the counter and get checked in.

Cecelia walks in the room, "Hey Juniper, so I was thinking I should work the casino, you know?", She says while looking through papers. The family looks at Cecelia, the older man and the two adult males looking shocked at her.

"Cecelia?"
