I don't own any of the shows.
"Mum" Julie Mayer said shocked. Her mother was right next to her smiling. "Is that really you?"
"Wake up, Julie."
"What!?" she shouted, before noticing that it was Andrew who woke her.
"You wanted a ride." Andrew said. They were both at the Scavo's Pizza Parlor "My shift ended five minutes ago."
"Oh, I forgot" Julie said politely. She grabbed her stuff and before she left, she went to see her mother photo.
Some one placed his hands over her shoulders. "We'll all miss her." Lynette's voice calmed her. "Things have been so chaotic since she and Bree died."
"I know," a tear started falling from the corner of her eye. She left the building before any more tears came. When she entered Andrew's van she gave him a look before he could say anything. She tried to contain her tears during the entire but, when they arrived at their apartment her eyes were red and watery.
"You received a letter from Princeton this morning." Andrew told her when they arrived.
"I know." Her voice was full of indifference.
"So?"
"I got accepted." The indifference got bigger word after word. "But I am not going"
"I thought all you wanted was to leave Fairview behind and start over." Andrew said surprised.
"I need to find out the truth." She explained.
"What there is to explain? You know very well that gas leak caused the explosion." Andrew said angrily.
"That's a lie." Julie hissed.
"Your mother wasn't the only to the die in the explosion." Every word was overloaded with rage.
"I know that very well." After that she went to her room and slammed the door. A lock could be heard turning.
"Sorry Julie," she let herself fall onto the floor "This is also fucking me," she hugged a pillow "I understand what you are felling right now." This time she didn't try to hold her tears. She hugged the pillow tighter and fell asleep.
The dream was worse than the last ones.
She opened her eyes. She was in her room within her older house.
"You have to be kidding me!" her mother voice came from downstairs. Julie silently went downstairs.
"I am going to accept Arthur's offer." Bree replied.
"We both know very well that he is a tyrant." Susan said. "And if the rumors are true he even tried to kill his own sons. Oh, that's something you have in common, you are both terrible parents."
"Well then you don't leave me other choice" Bree removed a gun from her bag and pointed it to Susan.
"Please Bree," Susan said nervously "Don't make do this." Bree's face stayed the same. Susan groaned before everything blurred. The room changed into what seemed to mix between a tea room and play room designed by Tim Burton.
"Your illusions don't scare me." Bree said smiling. Playing cards started falling from the ceiling. "Are you enjoying this?"
"To be honest, yes" Susan was sitting in one of tables drinking a cup of tea. "Look at the cards" Bree grabed a bunch of cards, they were all queens of hearts and she was the queen.
"Is this a game to you?" Bree asked annoyed.
"No." Susan said in a barely audible whisper, which echoed through the house. The cards started to burn trapping Bree in a fire circle.
"Oh
my god," said Julie, who had been watching the fire starting
to
consume the room from another room. "Mum!" Julie entered
the room, but she
was no longer in her house.
She
was now in the middle of a rainy street near a watchtower. She ran to
the
hall to avoid the rain; unfortunately, the door was locked.
"Hi," someone
behind her said. She turned around and saw a
young Indian boy.
"Who
are you?"
"You
can call me Sanjog," he said smiling.
Julie
bended her knees so that she could be face-to-face with him.
"What
are you doing here?"
"I only came to the ones who call me." He explained.
"Why did I call you." Julie asked confused.
"You need answers." His eyes were full of wisdom.
"What answers?" every explanation confused her even more.
"The ones you already have but you don't know." He smiled and ran away.
"Hey…" that was when she noticed that her surroundings changed again. She was now on the top of the watchtower. She quickly nestled against the watch's glass and sighed in relief. Things couldn't get worse but they did. A cold liquid began to drain down by her back. Her eyes became wide open when the liquid started also draining down her head. While shaking, her hand touched the cold liquid. "Oh my god!" It was blood. She slowly turned around to see the source of the blood.
The crimson color of the blood contrasted with the white glass. The rain almost whipped away the blood but it was still possible to read the word justice written with it. She slipped and fell.
She woke up screaming "Are you OK?" Andrews' concerned voice came from the outside of her room.
She
ran her fingers through her hair while she thought. "I'm fine."
Her voice was dry. Mum
told me about the illusions when I made that puppy when I was six.
But she never told me that Bree knew. Her
mind was a complete mess. The sound of her cell phone ringtone broke
her concentration. Focus,
focus,
she
willed herself, but the sound never stopped. Defeated, she
grabbed it from her bag. You
have a new message.
She pressed read while rolling her eyes.
Hello Julie, you don't know me but I know you and what happen to your mother. If you help me, I will help you in getting revenge for her death. If you are interested in my offer go to your old house till midnight. Oh and pack your stuff because you might not return so soon to Fairview.
Watchtower
"Watchtower,"
she remembered what Sanjog told her. Quickly, she packed
all her
essential items.
"Julie
what the hell are you doing over there?" Andrew asked. With
a
smirk, Julie unlocked the door. "Finally …" Andrew became
silent after a
brick wall appeared where it was supposed to be
Julie's room.
Julie
watched the entire scene from the front door. "I am sorry for
doing
this to you," She said before closing the door. The brick
wall disappeared
with the sound of the door closing.
Outside,
Julie ran toward her old house. She had less than 15 minutes to
reach
her to reach her destination. Cold wind tickled her skin and slowed
her
down. When she arrived exhausted, she let herself collapse on
the grass.
Her eyes tried to ignore the destruction of her old
house and only focus on
the good memories. Her cell-phone started
vibrating in her pocket. She had
another message from Watchtower
saying:
Good girl
The
sound of a car engine could be heard from the other side of the
street
What seemed to be a black 2009 Shelby Mustang stopped next
to her.
"I
see you accepted Watchtower's offer," the driver joked after he
had
opened the door. He seemed to be around his early twenties and
had light brown
hair. Julie, who had been silent the entire time,
simply nodded. After 10
seconds of awkward silence he stated, "Get
inside and prepare for the ride
of your life." She followed his
orders. "So who are you?" he asked after
the car restarted.
"Don't you know?" Julie asked confused.
"Watchtower
only told me to arrive here to pick up someone," he
explained.
He held out his hand "I am Mike Knight."
"Julie
Mayer," she told him while shaking his hand "So where
are you
taking me?"
"Far away," he said in a flittering tone.
"And where is that?" she entered his game.
"Nearby."
OK this a spin-off to Heroes and Villains so both fics will be parallel. There will be things starting in one that will end in the other. So you will need to read bout of them. Thanks D.
