It was no longer hot. Instead, she felt a soft cool wind brush her hair from her face. She could smell the salt in the air and hear the waves crashing on the sand. She stood there, watching the moon slowly rise above the black ocean. She sat down on the sand and cried.
"Why are you crying girl? You have a mission."- Dominik
"I can't believe I let those assholes kill me!" Juliette said sobbing.
"It's not all bad Jules. Look on the bright side, you get a second chance at life. And this time, you get to stay. Chin up, you'll get through this."
"You think so?" She said, wiping her face.
"Yeah totally. You'll see this was all worth it in the end." She smiled.
"Okay so why can't I see you?" She asked. He giggled and sighed. "You wouldn't like the way I am now."
"Why not?" -Juliette
"Because I am no longer human. I suggest I stay as a voice in your head." -Dominik. She frowned.
"Well, alright."- Juliette
"Don't think about it too much hunny, just think about what your mission now is." - Dominik
"Okay but one last thing, where are we? I thought I was dead?"
"For now, you are dead. You're in purgatory. You're here until I say we can leave."
"But He gave me instructions on how to get back to Earth." - Juliette
"No no no sweetheart, these are instructions on how to take your love ones life, and your consequences if you fail. Read it over." She did. After a couple minutes of reading, she cried again. She couldn't believe her task, how she was going to come back to Earth, and her consequence if she fails.
"Charlotte is almost out of time. We should be going now." - Dominik
Juliette stood up, dusted herself off, and walked to the open portal Dominik had opened for her.Discovering Charlotte
Chapter 6Juliette felt a gust of cool wind hit her face as she fell to the floor and went into a coma-like trance. It felt as if it was all a big dream. When she opened her eyes, she heard loud beeping and voices. Her vision was blurry, but she can tell she was in a hospital. Though she could not move, just look around the room.
"Juliette, go to the bathroom. It's right in front of you." - Dominik
She took a deep breath and slowly got to her feet. "It's right there." At that moment, a door leading to the bathroom opened on its own. She stepped in without turning on the lights.
"When I turn on the lights, you're going to be in front of a mirror. I want you to stay as calm as possible okay?" He said in her ear. "Okay." When he turned the lights back on, she took a look at who she now was.
"Oh my god." She said as she starred into the eyes of a pale golden blonde girl. "This is Charlotte. She was dying of leukemia. You took over half her body."- Dominik "Why just half?" -Juliette
"Well, there's more to it. This is your soul in her body. When you died, your body was not able to be recovered. So you were placed into Charlottes body." "Why Charlotte?" "Because if she would have lived, she would have been the one to get with Luke. Since you have to take your loved ones life, you had to be placed into someone who was connected with him. If you fail at this, Charlotte comes back and you go back to Hell. The longer you take on your task, the more Charlotte's features take over, and you get kicked out of her body. Then you don't get your powers or immortality. Take one hand and place it over the right side of your face. That's Charlotte. That is her green eye and freckled high cheek bone. Now cover the left side. That's you." She stared at both sides of her and cried.
"You should get back to bed. Your new family is coming to take you home." He said turning off the lights. She returned to her bed and waited.
"When you get back home, remember that tomorrow you start school again. It's been a year since your death, mostly everyone you knew has somewhat healed from it. Just not your parents, especially your mother." Her heart sank. "My mom? Will I ever see her again?" Tears started forming in her eyes again. "I don't know Juliette. I can't promise you anything." He was cut off by the sound of doors opening and people coming in.
"There she is my gorgeous angel!" A middle aged green eyed blonde women said coming in. She hugged Juliette tightly while she sat up in her bed.
"Honey we've been so worried about you!" A middle aged gray haired man said coming in the room, hugging her as well. Her new parents.
