Who: Bridgette Dubois and Open to Anyone
When: Friday (Tomorrow) the 3rd of April.
Where: Sidewalk in front of Apartment building 2.
Rating: PG

Bridgette stood outside of the apartment building, just staring up at it. She was a medium. Not that anyone here knew that yet. They'd find out soon. Her mom was a rather famous one in Phoenix before she was taken. If someone dug that far back in her history, they'd find out about her mom and eventually make the connection.

Quarantine was almost too much for her. It was an old mental hospital and the spirits that lingered there, drove her nearly insane. She begged the nurses for some sort of headphone so she could drown them out. Eventually, they'd complied, but not before they were pretty sure she was crazy herself.

She drew her orange plaid coat around her tighter, as it was still a little chilly. This was her new home. She was alone. That had never happened to her before.

She turned around to walk to the store that was just a few blocks down.

	Bridgette stumbled a bit, but caught herself. "Hey. Bridgette Dubois," she said softly. The year 1925 popped into her head, but she kept it to herself...for now. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Lucy "Nice to meet you Bridgette. Are you going to the store as well?" she asked "We could walk together. Sorry again for running into you." she smiled She started humming the last thing she had learned to play on the Piano before she had been taken. "I wonder why they chose to take us and keep us varying ammounts of time. It seems so illogical." she said (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	sweet_psychic 2009-04-22 10:48 pm UTC (link)
	Bridgette nodded. "Sure. I could go to the store." She was grateful for the company, in all honesty. "I don't know. I don't understand why they did a lot of it." She couldn't say "why her?" because she knew exactly why. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Lucy sighed "I miss My father. I don't miss our house that place was full of ghosts and they wouldn't stop threatening me." she sighed "I don;t know why I said the part about the ghosts." she sighed as they started walking. "They say there are an esitamted 4400 people taken from different eras. I wonder if there's anyone else taken from my time." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Bridgette stopped in her tracks. "You...were threatened by ghosts?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Lucy sighed "Yes, Collinwood is full of them. I was even possessed by one when I was 18." she looked at her "I just wish the ones who took us hadnlt enhanced that part. I can hear and feel ghosts. Which gwoing up in a mansion full of ghosts isn't a very good thing to actually be able to do." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Bridgette gulped. She didn't move. She couldn't move. "So can I. I'm a Medium...Psychic, whatever you prefer to call me." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	lucerocollins 2009-04-22 11:20 pm UTC (link)
	Lucy sighed "Thank God. I was Starting to think I was the only Psychic in the Area." she smiled "Were you confused the first time you realized you were hearing ghosts?" she asked. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	sweet_psychic 2009-04-22 11:36 pm UTC (link)
	Bridgette shook her head. "Only a little, because I was six at the time. My first best friend was a ghost and I didn't know it at first, but...my mom and sisters all are mediums too. Mom knew what to tell me, you know?" she finally loosened a bit. She was blown away and surprised she had told this girl. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"In my experience, it's genetic. My great-grandmother and my uncle are too, so you're probably right," Bridgette smiled. She was very happy to have someone to relate to. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Lucy "This time is so much different from 1925." she smiled "I am so glad I can wear pants without being looked at as an outcast." she said

Lucy had done research and she had found out that Beth Chavez-Collins, Her Mother, had died in 1932. But there was No date of death Listed for her father. She Knew her older Half sister had decendant in Maine and she windered if they were werewolves.

	Lucy "That's the one unchangable fact about life everything changes." she said "Sometimes all you can do is go with the flow." she smiled "RThis place is so odd. It's hard to believe all the people around us are from other times and places." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Bridgette nodded. "It's a little freaky, but I guess you and I are used to freaky," she joked. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	lucerocollins 2009-04-23 01:37 am UTC (link)
	Lucy laughed "Too true. Nothing freakier than growing up in a house veryone knows is haunted and knowing that there are ten generations of angry spirits within it/ pr at least six generations i know the house was finishedi n the late 1700s bit the town itsef was founded in 1740." she said.

	Bridgette grimaced. "Holy hell. I'd be getting the heck out of that house so fast that I'd probably break the sound barrier. It's amazing you aren't in a mental hospital. I go into a hospital full of spirits for a few minutes and I feel like I'm going to be ill the rest of the day." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Lucy "A long story. I wasn't living there for the three years before i was taken. i was only there that night because I was tired of my father scaring off every man I dated." She said "I finally got tired of him telling him me never to go into the woods of course when I went into the woods I was taken." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Lucy smiled "He was a pretty good father he was just worried about his curse effecting me." she sighed. She wasnlt sure her new friend would believe her about being realted to a werewolf so she decided to not say that part. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	sweet_psychic 2009-04-26 11:29 pm UTC (link)
	Bridgette listened. She felt like she shouldn't ask anymore. She felt there was more too it, but she didn't want to pry. "I see. That's good." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Lucy "I miss my dad though. And my mother but the public records show that Beth Chavez Collins died in 1932." she looked at Bridgette "Pn to a better subject.

Lucy looked at her "Anything is better than my family's motto, Trust no one outside Collinwood. As you can tell My family never left the house. The Night I got possessed. My 18th Birthday my father roped me into a Seance. I had a feeling something bad was going to happen if I did it. But Daddy said I was being Paranoid living in that haunted house corrupted his way of thinking and his daily glass of brandy."

	Bridgette thought that sounded like something scary out of some old novel and she shivered. She felt bad for Lucy, but at least she was here now. She kept telling herself that. "Yeah, don't go by that. Luckily, my family is pretty decent, but I never automatically would even trust family. There is always a crazy one. A criminal, something like that."

	Lucy Smiled "You've got a point." she said "All we can do is look forward instead of moping in the past. Nothing we can do to change what has already happened." she said. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Smart lady," Bridgette smirked. "Ta-da, we're here," she smiled and walked into the store. "Tortilla chips, here I come." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	lucerocollins 2009-05-10 01:27 am UTC (link)
	Lucy followed her inside the store. She still wasn't accustomed to all the stuff available in the store in the time she came from women wouldn't dare go swimming during their time of the month. "I like salt and vinegar potato chips. Since Potato choips hadnlt existed too long when i was taken there weren't any varieties." she said (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"They are pretty good," Bridgette grabbed a cart and grabbed a bag for her. "I'm partial to Sour Cream & Onion. Anything else you're craving?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	lucerocollins 2009-05-10 01:44 am UTC (link)
	Lucy smiled "Pepsi sounds good as well and i've been craving yogurt." she said "We need to buy something that looks mildly healthy so no one thinks we're just going to sit stuffing our faces. Cheese and bread." she looked around "Sometimes it's so hard to choose because there wasn't so much stuff when I was taken." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	sweet_psychic 2009-05-10 08:52 pm UTC (link)
	Bridgette grinned. "Gotchya. I'm getting some fruit too. Pineapple. Yum," she said, pushing the cart to shove the things Lucy had mentioned into it. She pushed a few breakfast cereals into her cart too. She didn't much like cooking in the morning. She remembered when her mom and dad would feed her cereal when she was a kid. It made her feel closer to them. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Lucy smiled "It's a Fresh Start here. I always wonder what happened to Lucius." she sighed "That's the part of my abdustion story I've never mentioned, The real reason I was in the woods the night I Was Taken I was secretly dating one of the Romany that was camped out in the woods on the Estate. Daddy didn't trust them because Gypsies cursed him. His name was Lucius and he was 3 years older than me the first timei met him was actuially while i was dating someone else in College. Lucius had been the caretaker for the grounds and he was observing when I broke off the engagement because I realized Simon just wanted access to Collins family fortune."

	Lucy blushed "Lucius was a handsome guy. He was about 6'5 and had light brown skin. He would only call me Lucero because it's spanish for Star. He has the most Beautiful deeo brown eyes." she smiled "I never called him anything but Lucius. But Lucius means Light." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
