scene a car stops and parks in the lot of the apartment complex
two people tiffani and lexi,walk across the grounds, to the apartment,the evening air bringing a little chill,inside they settle down.
tiffani.. it's a little cool, she set's the heat, and turns the theromostat up,seconds later it kicks on,,warm the place up in just a jiffy
lexi giggles remebering a nickname every,most everyone had for her jiffytiffy,
tiffani...what are you giggling at?
lexi,,,remeber when people use to call you jiffytiffy,funny,how sometimes,you can remeber things,you maybe hav;ent remebered for years.
tiffani...yeah funny, and remeber what i use to do to anyone for that?
lexi....you mean, come in crying to daddy
tiffani.....nuoooo....when i use kick butt and sent others home crying to their folks
lexi,,,,i'm sure those few times stand out for you
tiffani.....narrows eyes,and smiles,want anything to drink i still have some diet pepsi
lexi sure.....{the cat meows from the back],better check on my baby
Seconds later sammi scoots through the room,tail in air, rubbing against everything,, demanding her dinner....
tiffani..she sure has a funny meow
lexi...yeah,you can tell she is a little redneck cat,,meowwwww, lol,setting the food down that should satisfy her
lexi... sits back on the sofa flips on the tv, tiffany joins her with the coke and a few snack crackers they find a movie to watch remeber and talk about growing up,remebering some of their sister spats, which were quiet a few, cept for some lost hair neither were really hurt ,most of them ended up with them either crying and hugging,or laughing and hugging,starting getting late, and they got ready for bed...lexi decided to just wait to check out any voo doo hex spells untll later,,she was'ent sure how much of that to believe anyway,auntie t could tell some good halloween stories back in the day.
THE SCENE...B ack,at her house/cottage..it's like watching herself from the back through someone else's eyes as she moves around, from laundry room, to kitchen ,and living room, a record is playing,it's one of her favorite songs soft,instrumental,pianohttps,sammi,looks up from the sofa as she walks by, to the bathroom door, someone is there,her backed turned to lexi, strange that she can only see her reflectionin the mirror, the person half turns, her eyes widen, it's herself, her face covered in a mask, like that of a voo doo priestess, she thought,the figure face forms a hideous smile
Lexi,jerks awake,, another bad dream, she sets up a moment catching her breath... then looks out the window, someone is standing the shadows,looking toward her window it walks close enough to be under the street lamps, she gasp, at what she sees,and looks away,then looks again,the figure is gone.
She hears auntie t's voice, you will have,a hex away spell tp protect your self from the negative energies,,no need to wait further,she get's up, turns on her computer and begins a search.
TBC
Lexi, looks through several threads and stories about voo doo,it's origins...pretty interesting she thinks, wonder what the real difference is between it and witchcraft,maybe some time she would do more research, but for now she wanted to find something, to heelp get herself out of this apparant pickle she got herself into..page after page of voodoo spells, then she finally finds a couple,that look simple enough, hope that one of them would work..she copies down a couple the material she would need.she started feeling sleepy, shut down the cmputer and went back to bed,she was able to fall asleep pretty quickly...if they were any other dreams she did'ent wake up .
Next morning she wakes up to the smell of breakfast cooking, she stretches and yawns, rolling out of bed...a trip to the bathroom. and then into the kitchen..
tiffani...goodmorning sleepy head
lexi...good morning
sammi, is asleep on the chair...lexi,scratches her ears..
tiffani...i fed her already, did you sleep alright?
lexi... yeah,pretty well...had a bad dream, can;t remeber much of it now {she could}
tiffani....yeah, i had some funky dream to,can't remeber..this will be done in a bit want your egg over easy
lexi ... yeah that's fine,can i help?
tiffani sure,,get some plates and cups down
lexi ...ok

may as well get ready to leave to she says to sammi, the emptiness of the apartment felt strange..she remebered the dreams,, it gave her a shudder, she takes her shower and dresses, gathers her bags takes them to her car, the morning still cool butt warming up..back inside gathers sammi's things and put's the protesting little cat back in the carrier..looking around think i have everything,walks out locking the door. looking at the street lamp from last the night before,, a little dread crept into her, she had a couple steps to make...she only hoped things would work out.
