Chapter Three
She then saw somebody appear. She didn't know that it was Farquad. For Some reason she felt waves of hatred come from him but didn't know why. "Hello again. Do you even remember what happened that brought you here?" he told her coldly. "No, not really. Do you know?" she told him. He smiled at this.
"This is too perfect!" he thought as he looked at her ethereal form and blue eyes. Meanwhile in the swamp Puss and Donkey were trying to think something out about their amigo. "Let's try jogging his memory!" Donkey said excitedly. "I don't think it would work. It would only end up hurting him." He told him. He then walked into the bedroom where Shrek was. He was asleep. In his mind he could shear somebody calling to him and it was a female one. He then saw somebody but it was blurry. It was Fiona. "I miss you honey." She said as she touched him. Suddenly he felt it all fade as he woke up. He was very confused. Who was that voice talking to him in his dream? Puss walked over to him. He looked into his brown eyes. There was sadness in them. "I know you saw her. She misses you. I wonder if she is okay after what happened." He told him gently in his Spanish accent. "What do you mean by that? Do you know her?" Shrek said to him quietly. Puss smiled eagerly at this. "Yes I do. Her name is Fiona. She's your… wife! You've been married but because of what happened at the falls…" he explained. But he watched as his friend groaned in agony as his head hurt really bad.
"I'm sorry if your head hurt because of that." Puss told him gently. He nodded quietly. "It's… just I never knew I would find somebody and get married." He said quietly. "I know but you need to rest. You broke every bone in your body after that nasty fall." He told him quietly. Meanwhile in the spirit world, Fiona was trying to figure out who she was and how she came here. Suddenly another door opened and she entered it. She felt waves of warmth and hope in the room. There was somebody else there too. Fiona watched as the girl opened her eyes and smiled at her. "Hello me." She said quietly to her. This shocked Fiona greatly. "What did you mean by that?" Fiona asked her worriedly. "Don't be afraid Fiona. I'm the spirit of you when you were trapped within my mortal shell. You only escaped at night but we were both afraid he would find out about our curse… to be bound to ugliniess's device at night fall." She explained gently. "What do you mean by not letting him find out about our curse?" Fiona asked curiously. "The one who calls himself your True Love. We couldn't let him know that we were that at night. I am a part of you but when the curse was in effect, I dominated over both of us, but when he broke it with his kiss, you became free to be you and I was trapped within but ended here." She said. "Was Farquad the one who broke the curse?" Fiona asked her worriedly. "No he didn't. Don't you remember?" she told her calmly. She then saw a mirror and brought her over to it. Suddenly as they stood beside it, the glass cracked and a powerful blast of magic hit them. Everything then went black once more. Fiona was back beside the waterfall at the bottom. Her other self was with her. She knew that this had happened. She then saw Shrek lying there and tears welled in those blue eyes of hers. They ran to his side. Her other self watched as she held out one of her pudgy hands toward him. "No! I can't believe I… forgot all about you and our love. Farquad hurt us, didn't he? Now I'm stuck in this spiritual state forever and it's all my fault!" she said through tears. One of them hit him on the face.
Her other self then stroked her hair. "Yes he did hurt you but it wasn't your fault. In this world of spirits, your mind was confused and you couldn't think clearly about yourself or how you came here. I know of one thing that is stronger than death and it could help you get out of here back to your True Love." She said gently. "What is it?" Fiona asked strongly.
"It is Love, pure and true. It'll help you return to him. He needs you at the moment. His mind is more clouded than yours and needs your help." She said as she vanished from sight…
Fiona then fell asleep thinking of that, hoping that she could return…
