Lately I have been having some super crazy yet awesome dreams!
The other night I had a dream that my family was a mafia and we were fighting another mafia family. We were standing outside this super huge mansion waiting for the war to start. My brother and I had the job of getting into the house and stealing something (I don't know what). We got into the house and I lost my brother in the mess. I get to one room and one of the members of the other family had me trapped. Then all of a sudden this giant was peaking in the window. Of course the guy was an idiot and went out to the balcony and the giant ate him. I then discovered that the giant was someone in my mafia family that transformed into this monster giant that ate people when he was super mad.
Awesome dream right?
Last night I had another dream. This one came with a whole story line that developed part while I was in the dream and the rest when I woke up. So, I thought I would share this dream in a short story and see what you think and you can help me decide if I should continue with it. (So sorry this is so long! I didn't notice until I had finished.)
Elijah and Chasity crawled out of Sonia's car. Sonia was the girlfriend of Elijah's brother, Adam. Chasity looked back at the car and smiled at Sonia.
"Thank's for the ride. Hopefully the auto shop can have my car ready before classes tomorrow. Adam, thanks for coming to our call for help." Chasity said with a laugh.
"Anything for you Chasity." Adam said with a smile. "As much as my brother talks about you I think he would kill me if I didn't help." Adam gave an evil grin to Elijah as he watched Elijah's face turn bright red.
"Adam, you are so dead." Elijah said half serious. He took Chasity's hand and began to turn towards the college building behind them.
"Yeah, we were not doing anything anyways." Sonia said causing Chasity to stand her ground as Elijah tried to pull her away. "You should be getting back to your dorm, it's getting dark and all kinds of nasty things happen in the dark." Sonia said in a cold tone. She rolled the driver's side window up and drove off.
"What was that about?" Elijah asked Chasity.
"I have no clue. Come on, it's getting chilly." Chasity said as she pulled Elijah towards the building. When they entered and started up the stairs to Chaisty's dorm Elijah got a call.
"Go on, I will meet you in your dorm in a moment." Elijah said with a smile. Chasity had to pick up in her dorm room before he came up so she rushed to her room, grateful for the few moments of distraction.
It wasn't long before Chasity had her room picked up and had popcorn in the microwave. Elijah had not come to her room yet so she went looking for him. She laughed at the thought of him forgetting what room was hers. He was scatter brained sometimes. She found him at the bottom of the steps talking quietly into the phone.
"I don't understand what is going on? None of this makes sense." Elijah said into the phone. "No! This is not acceptable. She can't be the one."
Chasity knew what he was talking about, but she needed him to tell her. She needed to be able to trust him. Chasity jumped when Elijah hung up his phone and cursed loudly as he threw the phone into the floor.
"Elijah?" Chasity said as she looked down the steps at him.
"Chasity, I am so sorry. Had I known..."
"Known what?" Chasity asked as she walked to stand by him.
"They are coming for you." Elijah said quietly.
"Who Elijah? Who is coming for me?"
"Sonia and her warriors. They say that you are a threat to the world. They say that you have to be taken out before you remind me of something. They have been waiting for you to show up. I didn't know it was you, I never thought it could be you."
"But it is." Chasity said with a smile. "Come to my room. I will tell you a few things." Chasity took Elijah by the hand and lead him to her room. Once they were in she pulled the popcorn out of the microwave and placed it in a bowl. "Have a seat." She said as she sat the popcorn on the table and went to the small refrigerator and pulled out two beers. "You are going to need one of these." She said with a smile as she sat on the couch and handed one to him. He was still standing staring at her.
"What is going on?" Elijah asked as he sat down beside her popping open the beer and chugging half the can. Chasity smiled at him.
"You and I are meant to be together. It has been written in the stars. Together we can change the world. People like Sonia do not like the changes we would cause. Wars would stop, cruelty would come to an end. The world would be overcome by peace."
"Because of you and me? That makes no sense." Elijah said as he stared at Chasity in bewilderment.
"We have lived many lives. In the beginning we were Angels made for one another. We are soul mates. Every living being has a soul mate, every Angel, and every spirit, has a soul mate. You are mine and I am yours. It is our fate and our destiny."
"Okay." Elijah said as he laid his head back and closed his eyes. "I should be freaked but we can keep playing this game for a bit."
"It's not a game. Have you ever heard of the story of Adam and Eve?" Chasity asked with patience.
"Yeah, my mother made me go to church when I was younger."
"Well, I was once Eve, you were Adam and Sonia was the evil creature that pushed me to take the forbidden fruit. The story is not completely true, the one that people hear in church. As Adam, you were sick. Our creator did not know what had happened to you, it was something he had not created and could not contain it. It was a disease given to you by Sonia.
"She told me that the fruit our creator had warned us about would heal you. Even though it was going against our creator I had to do it. I did not actually eat the fruit, I gave it all to you. When you woke from your cold sweat I kissed your lips and that was when the creator found us. He saw that you were well and was elated, but he smelled the fruit in your veins and smelled it on my lips. He knew I had taken the fruit, Sonia told him so. Our punishment was to have to find each other in another lifetime. I was to remember everything. Our creator had felt that you had suffered enough with the unknown illness and let you forget..." Chasity met Elijah's eyes as a tear streamed down her face. "...everytime, you forgot."
"I don't want to believe you, but something about it feels right. I have to believe you." Elijah said confused. He stood to pace the room. "So why is Sonia still after you?"
"My punishment was to remember you and every life time we had together. Our creator did not mean for this punishment to go on forever. I was to find you in the next lifetime and we would return back to Heaven and retake our name as Angels. We were to renew the peace that had been our world before Sonia tempted me. She does not want peace because when there is peace there is no Hell and that is her domain."
"So she is like..." Elijah walked to the window that looked out into the courtyard. He saw Sonia standing by the fountain that stood in the center of the decorated garden. "...the devil?" He caught Sonia's eyes from the distance. She smiled a smile that sent shivers down Elijah's spine.
"Yes, that is basically what it boils down to. Our creator made her as he made us, though he made her with as much power as he has. Only, she uses her power for evil and in ways that makes her stronger than our Creator. He cannot stop her reign of terror on us. It is up to us to find a way to defeat her."
"Oh yeah, that will work! We are just humans, we have no power, I have no knowledge and if our creator cannot stop her how the hell are we supposed to stop her?" Elijah asked as he walked away from the window. "She is standing out in the court yard right now. She is staring straight into your window. She knows where we are and I am sure she knows that I know everything now."
"Elijah, chill out. We do have protection. We have creatures on our side that can help us. We have demons that want her reign to stop. While one demon cannot defeat her, an army can if lead properly."
"Demons? Like, from hell?" Elijah asked as his head spun in disbelief and anger. "Why not Angels?"
"Angels are good. They will cause no evil. They will not fight. Demons will." Chasity said as she stood from her seat and looked out the window. Sonia was gone. Elijah joined her at the window. "You will start remembering everything soon. Then things will not be so hard for you to wrap your mind around.
"What are you tal..." Elijah hit the floor in pain. Memories flooded his thoughts. Things he didn't know he knew. Things from another life, his life, lives. Soon his vision was gone and he stared into the blackness of unconsciousness.
