The Devil Wore A Brown Suit

Chapter 15: Part One Pedition

Day Seven

235 A.M.

I just want to sleep. I hear the wind, I smell the trees, and I am overthinking everything right now. The smells of magnolias are in the air. I think of my mother.

There are so many thoughts in my head. I remember KoKo bringing me to this cabin as a child. The cabin that is in between all the worlds feels safe. It was a place for me and my brother to just be children, a place where we could build a fire and play in the grass. I can’t believe I had forgotten this place.

 Life is so strange. Here I am back in this cabin hiding from the world. KoKo is weak. I do not know how long he can live on the topside. His time is limited. Sarge lies with him. Aren’t we a nice trio? The three of us a dog, an injured demon, and a celestial that has no idea how to even begin.

I know I have to save Camilla Dawn and from there she can help me get my children. We can go home. Do I go back to the underworld? I have no idea where to go. Topside felt like home for a brief moment and now it feels like a betrayal. Maybe we could stay here in the cabin.

“Sleep my child,” KoKo says so gently. Sarge whimpers. I have been outvoted. I will rest my eyes.

333 A.M.

“My child, do not believe the lies.” I hear a voice. It’s the voice. The voice I have been hearing for days. What lies? I do not believe anything at this point. It is all lies, isn’t it?

 I feel like my entire life has been one lie after another. I spent my life trying to be a good girl. Now here I am with memories that are haunting me. The fire is still burning. I reach my hand out. The warmth of the fire reminds me of home. There is a sound, a rustling in the distance.

I check on KoKo and Sarge. They are both fine. If it was anything Sarge would wake up and warn me. There is something red burning in the distance. I look out the window it is hard to make out. The longer I stare at it the clearer it becomes. It is the tree of good and evil. That means the garden is close to us.

“KoKo, Did you know the tree is here?” I ask quietly. I wasn’t expecting a response.

“Yes.” He replied.
