Back From The Dead (ON HOLD)

Ch 1. Dreams

One night in December, Leanne couldn't get any sleep. She kept having these dreams of him again. Papa Emeritus III. He's always been on her mind. Knowing that he's gone forever because he was killed along with his brothers, Papa 1 and 2 by the clergy. When Leanne heard about what happened, she was devastated that she fled the clergy. She's been trying so hard not to think about him. "Ugh why?" She asked herself. "Why is he always in my mind?" She pulled herself together by not crying. Leanne was a strong woman who hides her emotions so that no one would see her cry or get scared when some terrible shit happens. She thought of an idea and grabbed her phone and earphones from her nightstand, and began to play some ASMR rain sounds to make her fall asleep again. The sound of raindrops reminded her of her peaceful homeland, in Texas. As she dreamed of Papa again. Only this time, she did not wake up. Just letting the dream happen.

(In her dream)

Leanne was visiting the chapel where all the three papas lived. They were alive and well. Leanne was hanging out with Papa 3, along with other papas, Cardinal Copia, her good friend Archdiocese Astraeus (who is actually an archbishop), and the nameless ghouls. They were celebrating Leanne's birthday, and all were laughing having time a good time. Later on, Leanne and Papa 3 went outside the back of the chapel. There was huge backyard with much green, trees and a small lake. They went to a tree near the lake, and spent a good time together. "It's so beautiful." Leanne sighed as she stared at the horizon. "It certainly is, Ghuleh." Papa said. He only calls by the name Ghuleh because they were engaged, and Leanne didn't mind him calling him that at all. They stared at each other's eyes while holding each other's hands. "Can't you see that you're lost without me?" Papa said. "I can feel the thunder that's breaking your heart. I can see through the scars inside you." He leans forward to give her a soft kiss on her rosy lips. Suddenly the sky turned red, and the clouds were turning black. Something was wrong. Leanne was focused on Papa. His left eye glowed a blue light color. He placed his hands on her shoulders and pushes her gently to the tree with her back facing the tree log. Leanne felt scared of what's happening to Papa. He stared into her eyes. Then black smoke began to merge around them. Leanne felt her breath quickening as Papa leaned close to her left ear and whispered in his deep husky voice. "Come back and visit me to the dark chapel at sundown tomorrow night, I need to show you something." Leanne can feel his breath on her skin. She shivered then Papa began to bite her neck hard. Leanne winced in pain.

And that's where Leanne woke up after feeling the vibration from her phone on her neck. She turned off her alarm and couldn't believe what happened in her dream. Could it be that Papa was actually telling her to come visit him? or was it something else? She didn't know. She brushed it off her head for now and went to get dressed for the day.
