Ch.12: The haunting dreams
**Marissa's dream**
Marissa walked across an old racetrack. It was once used for professional racecar drivers but it was now a race gate as she put it. She saw all the faces she had originally seen eight years ago. Usually there would be four cars racing around the track. Instead there was a crowd of 60 people all dressed in black. Marissa looked down. Marissa looked down. She was dressed in a long black dress and carrying three white roses. Carefully she looked back up and met her worst fears. It was her father's funeral.
**Marissa quickly awakens**
**Pan's dream**
Pan looks down at a long knife. She was surrounded by complete black. On the floor was a tiny bundle of blankets. It was a very light bundle about six pounds or sop. She pulled back the blanket to reveal a baby's face. It wasn't normal. Pan brings the baby closer to her face and the sour smell of death filled her nostrils. She covers her nose and looks closer. Carefully she shakes the baby. It doesn't cry. After a few seconds of wondering Pan finally catches the blue tint in the baby's lips. She drops the baby and moves backwards just as a doctor comes towards her.
"I told you that you should have gained more weight and taken care of yourself. Now look!" He shouted. "Your baby is dead!" The doctor disappears.
"No! I did everything right!" Pan cries. She spots the blade lying next to her. She smiles at the thought of joining the baby in eternity and picks up the knife stabbing herself.
**Pan's dream ends**
Pan snaps up from a dead sleep and looks down at her stomach. The baby kicks furiously but calms as soon as Pan takes a drink of water from the cup on her bedside table. She had been having these strange dreams now for a week. Each dream got stranger and stranger. Shaking away her thoughts, Pan lays back down and falls into a dreamless sleep.
**Trunks' dreams**
Trunks looks around his office. It's just his normal everyday office he comes to with his morning Dr. Pepper and laptop. After taking a sip of his soda and looks down at the new lawsuit against him. His secretary comes in. She looks sad and almost if she is in mourning.
"What's wrong?" He asks.
"You haven't heard yet?" She answers.
"No, I haven't."
"Pan had a miscarriage a few weeks ago and now she's dead." She sobbed. Trunks' jaw fell as he pulled out the obituaries page of the newspaper. Pan was the first name.
**Trunks awakens**
Trunks looked around his now sun filled office. He checks his watch and sees that it is after seven.
~"Thank Kami it was just a dream."~ He told himself cleaning up his desk. Once again his eyes found the empty "father" space on Connor Donovan's profile.
