Do You Believe in Karma?



"My life changed after I died.
It’s not like I had any special powers.
They just didn’t understand me.
They underestimated me.
I had a gift."


an excerpt

The girl sobbed and Annie looked at her again. The girl was staring back at her. Her eyes were wide with fright.
“Can… you… see me?” Annie’s voice was shaky. Her dreams had always taken her to accidents, disasters, and the victim was always ready to die. Annie hoped this girl wasn’t going to die. This wasn’t an accident, this was evil. “Where are we?”
The young woman just continued to stare. Confused, Annie wasn’t sure the girl actually saw her, but when she moved she saw the other woman’s eyes following her. Then she wondered if the girl could hear the things that Annie said, maybe that was the problem.
“You do see me.” The girl still wouldn’t answer, she just cried. “Tell me what you can and I will try to get you help.”
No answer.
“I need you to tell me something, anything. Who are you? Where are we?” The girl cried harder. Annie was frustrated. She looked around the room, it began to spin. She closed her eyes and held her head.

10/27/13 WEWRIWA a community of writers and readers

Welcome to a Weekend Writing Warriors snippet.  Participants share 8 sentences of our writing, published or unpublished Everyone is welcome to leave a comment. See more at the WeWriWa blog.

Once more from Karma Visited, and yes, creative punctuation was used to make it fit:

She looked scared, “How can you see me?”
He shook his head, “Come on, I’m not playing games.” He looked at her and shook his head again, “This is some kind of joke, isn’t it, they were all just pretending that you weren’t there, I’m pissed because this wasn’t exactly the time to play games.”
“No,” she sounded hesitant, “no one can see me, usually, no one except… the people I come to help and I don’t know why you can see me, who are you?”
“Wha…?” He stopped himself and stared at her, “Who are you, how is this happening? Wait a minute,” he stared in silence as recognition dawned, “I’ve seen you before.”
“No,” Annie shook her head fervently, “never.”

Once again, another snippet from Karma Visited. In this scene, Undersheriff Dave Turner has been called to the scene of a motor vehicle accident. The survivors, two children, have already been rescued. (creative punctuation has been employed)

As Dave watched the fire department volunteers that were left to bring the bodies up to the roadway, he realized he hadn't seen all of them come up the embankment. There had been a woman next to the car, he noticed her because she wasn't in uniform like the others. Who was she, he asked one of the firefighters about her. 
The guy shrugged, “Who?” He was busy helping the tow truck operator unwind the winch to haul the car back up. 
“There was another woman down there, next to the car, where is she?” he looked around. “I wanted to ask her if she saw the accident, she wasn't in uniform.” 
The firefighter frowned, “Sorry, never saw her.”

Welcome to Weekend Writing Warriors where we share 8 sentences of our writing every weekend.

Returning to my paranormal Karma Visited, this is one of Annie's dreams (creative punctuation has been employed):

She watched as the car rolled down the embankment. Annie was frustrated as usual because there was nothing she could do to stop it; she was next to the car and could see inside. The man who was driving was dead; she was able to tell even without touching him. She could see the life as it drained from his body.

 The woman sitting next to him was dying. “Help them, please,” the woman’s lips barely moved, she didn’t move. But Annie knew she motioned to the backseat. “Save my babies…,” she looked expectantly at Annie.

10/6/13 WEWRIWA a community of writers and readers

This week's entry is from my new paranormal suspense Karma Visited:

It was shortly after they were married when she had one of her nightmares. She woke shaking and crying and panicked by what she had seen. Scott held her and tried to calm her, it felt good to be comforted by his strong arms. He kept telling her it was just a nightmare, she was safe. He offered comfort up until the point that she finally told him what she had experienced and she trusted him enough to tell him about her belief that the dreams were real, and then he laughed at her instead of listening. He called her a fool; he made fun of her for days. His taunts reminded her of the ridicule she suffered in middle school. She was humiliated and decided she would be better off never to share her dreams with him again.
