Beetlejuice carried Katie to her room and sat her on her bed. "Beej could you grab that big old book right over there." She pointed over to a stand holding a big really old looking book.
"Where did you get this thing?" He asked as he carried it over to her. "I got it from my grandmother. She was a gypsy/witch like me." She said as she took the book from him and looked for the healing spell in it.
He just watched for a few minutes and asked. "So you were going to tell me how?" She looked up at him floating and thought 'What?' Then it hit her. "Oh! Oh yeah ok hold on."
She was still looking when she asked. "Beej could you go into my closet and grab my white dress that's in there for me?" He looked down at her and nodded.
He came back with a white dress in his hands and was amazed at what he just saw. Kat had her eyes closed and chanted the spell quietly, but loud enough for him to hear. A blue light came from the wound and it healed in a matter of seconds.
She looked up and saw Beej with a shocked look on his face and she laughed which snapped him out of it and smiled at her. 'Good she's laughing I was worried for a second there, and my god her laugh is beautiful.' He thought to himself. "So I guess I should tell you now huh?" She said while she was composing herself. Then took the dress from him telling him to turn around so she could put it on. She then went and sat on the bed.
He nodded and sat next to her and looked at her as she took in a big breath and let it out. She looked at him and smiled sadly. "Well I guess it all started one night. My mother was hosting a really big party for what I don't know and don't care really." She said frowning.
"Anyways I was seven at the time I got my pwers early. I was five when I got them so two years with my powers and I could control them pretty well. Everyone there knew I was different so they treated me so. My father and two older bothers Justin and Peter were the only ones there for me. Always there to protect me when someone was glaring at me or saying something mean." She said sadly.
"Those kinds of people are horrible for what they did and to a seven year old at that." Beej said angrily. She smiled at him and continued. "Yeah they were, but I didn't care about them even if what they had said hurt at the time."
"Anyways it was a little after ten we were in the middle of the party when it happened." She breathed out and continued as Beetlejuice wrapped his arms around Kat and pulled her close.
"This strange group of men came crashing through the windows and landed in the middle of the room with guns and for some reason some of them had swords. I was getting ready to fight, but my father told me not to so I just nodded and stood back."
Katie pause for a second then continued. "Then out of no where one of the men grabbed me. It was weird I would usually feel someone's presence before they could get to me." She said angrily. He was amazed at how well she was trained and only at seven.
"He took me and ran jumping out the window to the back of the mansion. I screamed for someone to help and Peter told my father. He chased after us, but the man was way to fast."
Katie took another breath letting it out. "When we got to the woods I was scared out of my mind, because I had no idea what was going on. What this stange man was going to do to me. If someone would come in time." Kat said as she held onto Beej tightly.
"The next thing I knew I'm being held down by the man. He told me my mother hired them to kidnapped me and kill me, but he said he didn't want to kill me." Beej became confused until she continued her body shaking from remebering.
She looked up saw the confusion on his face and said. "He said instead he was going to mentally break me." She stopped and took another breath. It came out like she was about to cry.
She said quietly. "So he raped me and my father came to late." Her voice began to get louder tears coming down her face now as she continued. "My father was so angry he attacked the man that was on me." He just kept holding her as she talked.
"They kept fighting and fighting till the man held my father down." Kat closed her eyes the memory flashing in front of her. "He looked at me and said 'You watching little girl? Because I'm about to break you completely.' The next thing I know the man took a knife and sliced my fathers throat in front of me." Beetlejuice tighten his grip, but not to much to hurt her. She just sat in his lap crying.
"I screamed a blood curdling scream as I got up and raced to my father." She sniffed and said. "He was trying to talk, but I told him not to. I rested my head on his chest as I listened to his heart slowly stop." She finally stopped crying and laid her head on his chest.
"Finally to make things worse the woman my father trid so hard to protect me from stood there and said 'This is all your fault you little monster. He's dead because of you.' I did the one thing I told myself I would never do, I believed her and blamed myself."
She was finally done when he spoke. "You do know it's not your fault right?" She looked at him and nodded. "It's my mother's fault I know that now." She said grimly.
"Your father sounds like a good man." Beej said to her smiling trying to lighten the mood. It worked to. She smiled back and said. "Yeah he was." She smiled brightly and looked at him and said.
"You know he would of liked you. You're his kind of people he would of hang around with." He just smiled. "Really now?" "Yup!" She smiled brightly at him.
"Hey B?" He looked at her. "Yeah babes?" "Could you stay here tonight some reason I sleep better with you around." She said a little sleepily.
"Sure babes anything for you." He just held her in a very protective manner. He wanted to save her from this, but didn't know how, but he knew she needed him.
So he decided he would stay with her marriage or not he didn't care. He had fallen for her and he knew he fell for Belle as well. He was actually happy with them around.
He finally fell asleep with her in his arms smiling. In the shadows stood a figure who watched the whole thing. It was Juno smiling at the poltergeist.
'I was wondering what could make you change so suddenly. I'm proud of you Beetlejuice. You finally found someone to care for and to care for you as well.' She thought to herself still smiling as she vanished into smoke.
