Chapter 8
Patch point of view
I carried Nora to our bedroom and wrote a not as to where I was going. I got in the car and drove off to my daughter's grave.
...
"Hey princess, We did it. We sent that monster back to hell...just for you." The first tear came down and I sat there quietly. "Remember when you first started walking and I chased you all around the house...and you bumped into the the kitchen counter and got flour all over you...you didn't cry but you laughed when Mommy screamed." I smiled and giggled at the old memory and kept talking.
"Mommy hasn't been handling this situation very well and I'm trying to stay strong for her but truthfully I don't think I'll be able to deal with it much longer. But I should get back to the house before Mommy wakes up and panic...haha...we both miss you so much princess. We love you." And with that final say I got up and took that painful walk back to the car.
Once I got back to the house Nora was still sleeping so I decided to go look up ways to contact Raphael.

I woke up to voices coming from the living room and I heard Patch's voice but with our messed up life that still doesn't mean it's safe to go down without caution. I crept down the hallway and saw Patch sitting in a chair with his hands folded loosely in his lap, so I crept a little more and Patch eyes quickly saw my movement and...
"Nora come out its ok. I found a way to contact Raphael and Im trying to figure out how to see if we can bring Layláni back." Patch spoke calmly.
Did you find out anything useful so far? Patch didn't answer but instead held out his hand and I went over and sat in his lap comfortably. Raphael was what you would expect a a heavenly man to look like. He had long brown hair cascading down his back, his eyes were light blue almost clear, his sun kissed skin tone and he had a long deep blue silk robe with a silver rope around his waist. His features was sculpted and perfect. But not as perfect as my husband's...of course nobody compares to him! Raphael stared at me with questioning eyes and I realized I was asked a question. "Sorry, what did you say?" I said a little embarrassed.
"Do you have something Layláni recently worn or something she always carried with her?" Whoa. His voice is deep, it kinda reminds me of Mufasa from Lion King...hehe...oh yeah the question. "Um..I have her phone and her jacket she wore that day, which one would be better?"
"The jacket the should have some blood on it unless you washed it and in that case I would need the phone." I got up to retrieve the jacket and phone and gave them both to him. He looked thoroughly at the jacket and found the bloodstain, and before anybody judges me Patch wouldn't let me clean the jacket so we had it put up in the storage instead, he hovered his hand above the bloodstain and his hand lit up and there was blood coming out if the jacket. The blood looked fresh and new again and He made it rotate in a ball and then it disappeared.
...
Once we got to her grave it was a crack that ran from the tombstone to the end of the new growing grass. Raphael words kept playing through my head and I don't really have a clue to what he means by chant the words of freedom. "Post solis occurret in terram, ad ubi requiescit. Cumque caneret verba illa libertas consurget. Sole amplius appareret." Patch translated it: "When the Sun meets the ground, go to where she rests. When you chant the words of freedom she shall rise. When the Sun is no more, see her." So here we are at Layláni's grave and and Patch started speaking latin and I just stood there...sadly.

"Spiritus liberaret eam. Liberavit. Alii spiritus inspirant corpori eius eam et uti bonis." I spoke the words in latin and afterwards I sat down and pulled Nora into my lap waiting for the sun to disappear.
...
A light started to shine through the crack in the ground and it shined so brightly we both covered our eyes. Once the light dimmed I looked at the newly formed hole in the ground saw nothing. No body, no casket, nothing but dirt. I looked around and saw only the trees swaying with the wind. I heard Nora make a sound and I looked back at her and saw that she was looking up at the sky.
There was a girl floating in the sky but she looked too big to Layláni, but then again Layláni was five feet two inches in her first few years of life. She started falling and I caught her, and thats when I saw my princess again...but now she's an adult...well she didn't have much of an childhood. She was unconscious but at least she is breathing.
...
We got her home and put her in the guest room bed since she is too big for her bed, then put some aspirin and a cup of water on the nightstand and waited until she wakes up.

Nora point of view
I sat in the bed room with my baby girl and her eyes shot wide open and she sat up and her eyes started to glow and she looked at me as if I was threating her somehow. "Layláni...calm down its Mommy...I mean your mother, calm down baby." I spoke to her soothingly afraid I was caused her to attack or something. Her eyes started to slowly go back to normal and she just sat there with confused eyes. I was about to ask questions and see if she feels okay but I was never really the one Layláni was really close with she loved her daddy more...I'm okay though.
"Patch!" I yelled.
Patch came in and he looked at his daughter with disbelief and he sat at the end of the bed. We all sat there silently waiting for some type of answer. "Princess...Layláni how do you feel? Do you know who we are?" Patch asked unsure.
"I remember who you are but Im so confused on how I'm breathing right now." She looked down at herself then sighed "Well there goes my childhood." Patch snickered then started to explain everything that happened a week ago.
Please review...I feel as if I'm saying it just to say it...PLEASE REVIEW!
