17. Oh, Now I Understand

"Umm. . ."

Jamie gaped at the question, and thought to herself, How did he know? She'd never told anyone about those dreams, because they'd freaked her out to bad. Jamie Elliot did not take to kindly to random white black stripe headed women with amber eyes in her dreams.

"What is . . . Is she too you?" Jamie asked slowly, refusing to look at Lord Death in the eye sockets of his goofy mask. He blinked, and then replied with, "She was my wife, and Kid's mother." Jamie Elliot was speechless. That lady was Kid's mom? That twin of her with different colored eyes was Lord Death's deceased wife? Ew! Was she the reincarnation!

As if reading her frantic mind, Lord Death smiled and laughed, "Oh calm yourself, it would take her many more years to be reincarnated." Jamie sighed in relief, a puff of air causing her ragged bangs to flip up before slowly falling down. Lord Death pressed on, "So, does this mean you have dreamt of her, of Lady Death?"

The swirl eyed girl nodded, "Yes. I have dreamt of her."

Flashback

Jamie had started to have these dreams the night of her first day at the academy.

She settled down in her aqua bed covers, in florescent green pajamas, and snuggled into her stuffed penguin, Mr. Wiggles. Letting sleep take her in its ever enticing, and addicting waves.

She'd woken up in a very familiar location, the Death Room. Except for the absence of the pathway of guillotines out, the red mirror, a black table with two chairs and woman sitting at it, the room looked exactly the same as it did in the waking world.

Jamie paid very close attention to that woman. The main reason was because she had exactly the same hair as her, but with gray stripes going vertical as if they were drained, instead of the ebony ones that marked the little Miss Elliot. That woman was drinking tea, and looked up at Jamie the moment she had slipped into the dream. Her topaz eyes were more than topaz, they were amber, no. They were lightning, melting honey, gold.

They were like Death The Kid's.

Jamie blushed, and the woman smiled at her. "You must be Jamie Elliot. The chosen one. My name is Meridian." Jamie waved timidly, "I'm Jamie Elliot. Pleased to meet you." For some reason, that woman made Jamie want to hide. She could sense a power coming off her. Not very strong, but not something to screw with either.

"Its wonderful to meet you too, Jamie. Would you have seat by me?" she asked, gesturing to the chair that sat in front of her. "Sure." Jamie piped quickly, sitting down and scooting the chair as quietly as possible to avoid eye contact with the strange person.

Then, for some reason, an ice broke and the two spoke. They laughed, and they talked. This happened every night, but at the very end in the middle of a laugh, Meridian would always say, "Take good care of Kid."

End flashback

Jamie hadn't realized she'd flashbacked, and when Shinigami-sama smiled wide, his eye slits getting bigger, Jamie flushed. She had said all of that stuff out loud. "I see." Lord Death commented with glee, "Now I understand."

Lord Death couldn't have been happier, he found his sons wife! Now all he had to do, was some matchmaking. In other words, send them on a mission together.

Pulling the poor girl out of her stupor, he said, "Oh! I have your first mission papers on me, you will be going with my son." Jamie flushed deeper, and the goofy grim reaper continued to grin. "Okay, Lord Death."

"Your dismissed!"

Jamie nodded and waved at the bubbly Death god, who waved back, still smiling. He would get them to confess and get together, or he wasn't the proud owner of the number 42-42-564.
