The first breath she took almost poisoned her lungs. Or could it be the tight clothes she were wearing? She looked at her mother shocked as she kept breathing deeply. There was something with her lungs and she didn't know what. There seemed to be a lot more problems there, though. What the hell was going her... She grabed the left side of the... COFFIN?! She tried to sat and failed, then her mother helped. As she sat, she finally found the proper words. "Mum? What's going on here?"
Apprantly her mum couldn't talk, she was just crying and laughing at the same time. "It worked, it worked my lil Danny! You're back!" When she hugged Danny, she started to think. Back? Back from where? Before she could anything, she realized why it was still too hard to talk. Her lips were shaking. "I'm cold." was the only sentence she could got together. Her mother wrapped her with her own long coat and stroked her back as she hugged to make her feel warmer. "You'll be alright, baby, I will make everything alright." But Danny could feel how tired she was too. "Mu...mum... I was... dea.. dead." said she, after she remembered. "Yes baby, but you're back and that's all matters." "I can't understand, how? Did you do this? How? It wasn't possible before. I'm not like dad. I was REALLY dead. I can't remember much after the poison, thuogh. Bilge was also dead, right? How long was it before?" Feli paused. "A few years. I'll take care of her later, I think. I don't think I can do anything but going home. Hey, it's Halloween. Why don't we celebrate it at home? After you get rid off your funeral dress?" "Where's Carwyn?" She was still confused. "Later, baby." Feli's second paused gave it away, though.

It was that time of the year. It was a fest Feli had alwasy been adored but this time it was different. She had been preparing everything for this magic night and she would do anything to be successful. Even though she had never been sure if that was possible. She had to try anyway.
After watching the famous cursed movie again, she drove her Shelby Snake to the Highgate Cemetary. It was a cold night but she didn't even realize that much. She was shivering with excitement and a bit fear. Fear what could happen. She had never mentinoed anyone her intentions, not even to her ex-husband, lover, or husband. She didn't even know what they were but the truth is he was the father of her two deceased daughters and he had right to know. But he could think she was mad and to be honest Feli wasn't sure she wasn't mad. She grabbed the shovel she brought with and began with the first grave. When she was done she was tired but there it was: The coffin. She looked at the coffin like she saw it for the first time. It wasn't entirely wrong. Last time she saw the coffin, she couldn't actually see anything but her babies' faces. Not as dead, as babies, little children or young girls. Not dead... She got back to the car to pick other things she needed. She knew how stupid it would look: Candles, a knife she bought from a gypsy, a parrot cage and her Kobe necklace... It was like a bad joke. She wasn't sure if it was a good idea to wear the necklace but she did it anyway. She had always been a follower, even at that sinful moment. So was her daughter. She shivered even more with that thought. She would disagree. But she was fucking dead and Feli had been in pain. It was her right. She sat down and took a deep breath for a moment. She remembered everything the gypsy had said. There were risks: Bringing back just a zombie, losing someone else instead or worse: losing a lot more than just someone. She could also remember that dirty smile she gave her. She thought about her other children, grandchildren and her brother. It was stupid to continue but she did it anyway. She stood up, opened the coffin with a little help of her tools. As finally she did, she looked at the bones with a sick belly. She stood back and opened the cage. Parrot was yelling like crazy bu she didn't mind. She killed it with the knife and drew the circle with its blood. Then she placed the candles and burnt them. As the last step, she cut her left arm, too. It wasn't a deep cut but enough to make her bleed and add the blood to the circle. She pushed the wound with a cloth piece and sat in front of the coffin without looking inside of it. As she said the words she had learnt from the old woman, in Spanish, she closed her eyes and felt the cold more and more. It wasn't lie, it wasn't a joke, it really made something there she had never imagined before. "Rise!" was the last command and she said it three times louder than ever before. She felt almost the last heat of her body leaving her as she stopped. She still couldn't believe what was happening until she opened her eyes. She waited for a few seconds, she was afraid but also curious. So she forced herself to stand up. Sh barely could walk bu managed to get to the coffin. The corpse was at the same position but it wasn't a bone pile anymore. It was a real person, it was really her. She looked just like sleeping. Tears began to fall Felicidad's cheeks slowly, she stroked the ginger hair with shaking hands untill she opened her eyes with a shock look. Danny took a deep breath and looked at her without changing the look on her face. After breathing deeply a few times, she sat there with help of Feli. "Mum? What's going on here?" Feli was speechless, she kept crying then remembered to hug her. |
