Chapter 7
Suddenly I was running a long a beach, it was a routine of mine, wake up, brush my teeth, and then go for a run. I did more of a run-walk today because my legs killed from a long day at the theme parks the day before. I turned the corner and ran up the path that led to my family's estate towering over the beautiful shore. I closed the gate and walked in the open back door, which was strange because my mom was always yelling at me on how I was letting bugs in by keeping the door open. I walked into the kitchen where I had last seen my family, my dad reading the newspaper and drinking his morning cup of coffee, my mom laughing about a joke she had heard at the country club, and my sister sitting in her brand new pink dress she got for her second birthday, looking like the most precious thing in the world. I walked into my kitchen and the scene that I saw next is burned into the back of my brain forever. My family lay on the linoleum floor, cold and dead to the world.
I woke up with a bolt, and sweating from head to toe. Where was i? and WHO WAS THIS STRANGER IN MY BED? I felt like a party girl with a hangover.
"HOLY CRAPPP! WHO THE HECK IS…?"I screamed and the guy in front of me woke up shocked and confused. He looked so familiar and so very important. Nothing was making any sense, I was so confused. I held my head in my hands searching for answers in my mind that weren't there.
"Rachel, whats wrong?" He asked with such pain in his voice.
A million thoughts and images flew threw my brain, so many that it overwhelmed my body and I fell back into the bed and fell into a deep sleep.
"What happened? Is she going to be okay? Somebody please tell me she's going to be okay. I can't lose her! So much has already been taken from me!" I heard very distantly, but I could tell Ghoul's voice anywhere.
I opened my eyes to see a worried Kobra, a freaked out Contro, a crying Ghoul, and a calm, but concerned Dr. Death hovering over me.
"Hello?" I mumbled.
Ghoul ran to my side and asked, "Are you okay? Do you remember me?"
"Of Course I remember you, Ghoul. How could I forget with all that happened last night? I winked and he blushed and gave everyone the itsnotwhatyouthink look. They just laughed and he turned back to me and said,"You're saying you don't remember waking up and forgetting who I was?"
"Oh. I remember it, but there are so many things packed in my mind right now and I have so much to tell you." I said
"We can hear about your memories later. Some of us actually have stuff to do," Kobra coughed.
"What was that Kobra? I'm being an ass?" Ghoul asked, "Yeah, I think you're right about that."
Kobra shut up and walked out of the room and Contro said he was just stressed out about some personal matters he may or may not be facing based on her pee and we all got the message and shut up about Kobra.
"Honestly, I have something super important to tell all of you!" I said
"KOBRA! GET YOUR SEXY ASS IN HERE!" Contro screamed
Finally Kobra walked in and had a sastisfied look on his face and he threw his arms around Contro and pulled her into a very long and deep kiss, Ghoul and I just looked at each other to avoid be super awkward, but we couldn't keep a straight face and watched as kobra and Contro gave us the evil eye for disturbing their makeout session.
"sorry, guys. I do have important things to talk about!" I said.
"Okay. Go ahead. Tell us." Kobra responded and I thought that he definitely got some of his brother's sassiness
"I woke up knowing way more than I should be knowing. I felt like a flashdrive overflowing with files. My own memories, ones I didn't want to remember, but also the memories of others and I've been having these weird flashbacks for a while, but I don't know when their gonna come and I don't know what it's gonna be.
I couldn't tell if they believed me they all looked so confused, so I sighed and walked out of the room, tears stinging my eyes. I heard footsteps behind me, I turned around to see ghoul who wrapped his arms around me and squeezed me tight. I embraced him back and let my tears dampen his shoulder. He looked at me, seeing if I was okay and then led me back to his room where he sat me down, but I moved, preferring to sit with his arms wrapped tight around me and we discussed everything I had just told him.
"Sedative, what kind of memories?" he asked
"I have ones from Korse, Kenroku, Party, Jet, Kobra, Contro, and, uh, even you Ghoul" I mumbled
He looked so concerned , and broken, he unwrapped his arms from their resting place around my waist and turned to me and whispered, "Like what?"
Tears streamed down my face and I looked at him, and said, "Frank, its okay, I know what happened and I know exactly how you feel. It's not your fault! You did absolutely nothing wrong!"
He gave me a sympathetic look, we would talk about it later, but he looked at me and choked, " You don't know a thing about my sins." I hugged him tight, even if he didn't know he was forgiven, I did and I kissed his cheek to stop the single tear falling down his face, in its tracks.
