Trouble Deep

Bigbee was in trouble deep

It's been a long time he was asleep

Rue sat by his bed gave Jasper a grin

"Okay. Here we go. Let's begin."


She closed her eyes

She called upon him in her mind

Searching and Searching

but couldn't find


She has seen glimpses of things that may

But she pushed them away

"Come on, Bigbee.

Sue is waiting for you."


"Sue?"


She heard the name.


"If she lost you now, it be a real shame."


A figure stepped out of the dark

He had a kind face but his soul

Was but a spark.


"I've come here to set you free

But I need your help, Bigbee."


"What do I do?"


"Take hold my of hands

And think of Sue

She'll pull you through

Let your mind expand."


He did as she said,

She felt his life pull

He was trying to fight

But the spell held on tight.


Ruechari closed her eyes

To her surprise

She had seen him

The Wraith buried deep within

Smiling at her with a grin


"LET HIM GO!"


"What if my answer is, no?

You banished me here

But you keep coming back

I almost had you last time

But you slipped through a crack."


Rue looked at Bigbee

She thought of Sue and Darkly.

"Go," she said, "go to them

There is no time to waste!"

She pushed him from her mind,

"You'll be no longer displaced!"


Bigbee eyes opened

He heard his wife's scream

He looked around his room

From her eyes tears did stream


He sat up in bed

then his heart filled with dread

As the woman in his head

Lay on the ground

in a man's arms

Had she come to harm?

"Is she....

dead?"
