Jim mumbled “Here it comes…”
Suzy informed, “We’re taking the Baby to my house and sleeping with it.”
Latter at the house Suzy put a pamper diaper on the baby. Then she laid the blanket on the bed, and laid the baby on it. She set the baby so its head was at one corner at one end, and its feet was pointing to the opposite corner. Then she took the bottom corner and folded it up over the baby. Making sure the babies arms were down she folded one of the side corners over the baby, and tucked it tight under the baby. Then she did the same with the other corner. Now the baby was wrapped tight in the blanket.
Looking at Jim Suzy said, “Now we wait.”
Jim asked, “Do you think this will work?”
Suzy replied, “It worked for my grandma on my dad, and she showed this to my mom and it worked on me.”
Jim questioned, “And if this don’t work?”
Suzy insisted, “Then its plan “B,” but you won’t like it.”
Jim demanded, “What’s plan B?
Suzy dropped her head and revealed, “We put the baby in our room and shut the door. Then we let the baby cry itself to sleep. We keep doing that until we break the baby of the habit.”
Jim exclaimed, “That could take days, or even weeks!”
Suzy replied, “About ten minutes. You can just blink us back to our room ten minutes after we left.”
Jim went to the kitchen, and filled the coffee pot with water, and poured it into the drip coffee maker. Pulling a filter from the canister he put in a filter, and pulled the coffee can from the back of the counter. Scoping out the coffee Jim went on, “Now that we’re alone I need to talk to you about something.”
Suzy sat at the table and asked, “What’s that James?”
Jim asked, “Do you think we’re immortal?”
Suzy took a deep breath, “I don’t think it’s that simple James. I’ve asked Najl about it, and he told me I was Love. Then Wind Walker told me that Bird Man and he have never aged a day. I also know we live in a buffer zone. It’s the realm between Good and Evil. Najl told us we live in the realm of time which is outside of time. He also told us that we live in the time between the living and the Spirit world, and that we just interact with the living.”
Jim set two cups by the coffeepot and questioned, “So what are we? Do you know?”
Suzy replied, “I think we are pure energy that has the outward appearance of what we were. This is like a shell that holds our being or soul. The energy we’re made up of is unique to each of us. Mine is pure Love. Kathy’s is like a star and pure light. You would be the energy that holds the fabric of space time together. Have you ever thought about how powerful you are? You probably dimmed a star to jump us here.”
Thin the baby started crying and Jim responded, “So much for that.”
Suzy started making a bottle and replied, “It’s just feeding time James. Don’t you know anything?”
Jim replied, “I guess not.”
Suzy took care of the baby, and they talked and drank coffee. Then they went to bed. The baby only woke up twice. The first time at about two A.M. hungry and needing changed. Then the baby woke again at four to be fed. The next morning Jim blinked them to the pancake house. Then they gathered their stuff and Jim blinked them back to their room at the boardinghouse. Suzy showed Rebecca how to wrap the baby to make her feel secure, and gave her the plastic baby pants for the nights. Suzy insisted Rebecca only use the stuff in her room, and to not let anyone see them.
The days went by and soon it was Monday, and Albert was taking Kathy to Lambert to ride the stage back. In lambert Albert stopped to see Bill. Albert walked in the Marshal’s office announcing, “How’s it going Bill? You get any word on the Judge?”
Bill insisted, “It don’t matter now Sheriff. We buried him last Wednesday. Found him dead in his cell. Someone must have slipped him a knife through the bars. He stabbed himself and we didn’t even know it.”
Jim took off out the door and went to the alley and blinked to the cemetery. There it was, a fresh grave dug up and wide open. Then he thought, There’s a Demon among us.
