I do not own Static Shock nor any of it's characters except the ones I invented for this story.
Hi Everybody I'm sorry it's soo long in waiting for chapter but I've been going through a lot of stuff lately so please be a little understanding.
Chapter 3
Ah the smell was wonderful and the taste made her mouth leap with joy. Cantaloupe was her favorite fruit on the planet and, it was made all the sweeter by the fact that Catori hadn't eaten or stopped working since she first arrived at work that morning. "Man I never thought Susan would work us that hard after the barn was perfect." moaned Catori as she massaged her shoulders. "Well I don't know what your complaining about you didn't even clean the damned barn!" snapped the ever observant Iris.
Catori just rolled her eyes and changed the subject back to the main topic of their conversation. "Anyway," She continued. "why do you think I keep having these dreams of spirits? What do you think I should do?" "Well," said Iris. "If I were you I would let the spirit catch you. Maybe it's a dream symbol for destiny or something corny like that." Iris mused. "Oh har de har har Iris." Giggled Catori "Well I better get back to wor…" at the last word Catori swooned and fell to the ground. "Cat! Cat! What's wrong! Are you all right! Cat!" Screamed Iris as she ran to Catori's side and shook her lifeless body as Susan came running up the path towards the noise.
Where am I? What's going on? Were the first thoughts that came to Catori as she opened her eyes to the same dream landscape she had seen so many times before. Catori finally you have decided to join me. It has been a long time waiting young one. Said the woman in white as she came into view. She was beautiful and, not frightening at all Catori finally realized. She was tall and graceful with a beautiful flowing white gown that seemed to the made of a shimmery gossamer material. So tell me are you ready to take my hand and complete your journey? She asked in her beautiful siren like tone. I don't understand ready for what journey? Said Catori as she stared spellbound in front of the white lady. Take my hand young one and the understanding will begin. Said the spirit as she offered her hand to her. Without a second thought Catori took the hand.
The change was incredible. All at once millions of spirits came out of nowhere and swarmed around her surrounding, her entirely. She started to scream but found that all the thoughts of the other spirits quieted her own and she had trouble even identifying her own mind through all the others. Her skin became transparent and she dissolved into the spirits like a drop of water into a pond. Her last thought that was her own was What's happening to me!
Catori awoke in the ranches horse infirmary very weak and confused. She didn't understand where she was for a moment and, then realized it had just been a dream. "Where, Where am I?" Catori very groggily croaked. "Oh Cat your ok!" squeaked Iris as she threw down her magazine and ran to her side. "I was so worried! You just fainted and I didn't know what to do. Thank god Susan was walking up the path when you passed out." Iris had tears in her eyes at this point. "What happened to me? Do you know?" asked Catori. "Well," began Iris. "The horse Vet said you were over heated and that was why you passed out." "You had the Vet look at me?" Shouted Catori rather panicky. "Well frankly we didn't really know we needed to dial the damned Mayo clinic Catori!" yelled Iris.
"Well, anyway, Susan said I should drive you home and let you rest." Said Iris rather wearily as she picked up her purse and offered Catori her hand. "Well I took the ladies hand like you suggested and man what a weird dream!" replied Catori as she climbed off the table and headed for the door with Iris. "Well you can tell me all about it on the drive home." Said Iris in a comforting tone as they both went out the door and headed home.
