The Priest Passes Away
The priest has just passed away. His body is in the hospital bed covered with a sheet over his head. His family members and several other priests are standing at his hospital bedside crying their eyes out. One of the other priests, who is his brother, cries out, "He's gone, he's gone!" He then looks up in the air and shouts, "God! Why did you have to take my brother?! I was hoping you let him pull through this! Why did 291
you have to take him?! Why couldn't he just stay here on earth much much longer?!"
The priest's brother continues to cry his eyes out as everyone else cry their eyes out trying to comfort him.
The next day, a group of people are sitting at a bowling alley table. A white female around her mid-forties is looking at a newspaper article with a headline that reads: DIANE D'S OTHER PERSONALITY HAS CLAIMED ITS SIXTH VICTIM AS THE
PRIEST PASSES AWAY: "Oh no!" the white woman shouts. "Another person who got injured by Diane D's other personality just passed away!"
"What!" the rest of the group shouts.
"Another person who got injured by Diane D's other personality died?!" a white male around his early fifties shouts.
"Yeah!"
"Who?!"
"This time, it was the priest who passed away!"
"What!" everyone else shouts. "The priest?!"
"Yeah!"
"You got to be kidding!" a young white male shouts. "The priest this time?!"
"Yeah!"
"Oh my God!" a heavy-set black woman shouts. "Let me see!" Everyone leans on the table to look at the article. "Did it say when the priest died?"
"Yeah, it says he died last night!"
"Last night?! Oh good Lord!"
"Wow!" a younger black woman shouts. "I can't believe Diane D's other personality killed a priest this time! First her other personality killed cops and a swat team and caused that little kid Marcus to take his own life, and now her other personality has killed a priest?!"
"Wow! I guess Diane D's other personality doesn't discriminate! It doesn't care WHO you are! You mess with Diane D, her other personality is gonna come after you plain and simple, even if you're a priest!"
"Even if you're a priest?!" the young white male shouts. "But what did the priest do to deserve this?!"
"He came into that hypnosis room with the security guards when the security guards were about to go for Diane D! That's when Diane D's other personality threw and tossed that psychiatrist couch right across the room at them full speed ahead and slam that couch right into those poor souls smashing the couch right into their heads!"
"My God!" the white woman says. "Thank God I wasn't inside that hypnosis room!"
"Well wasn't Diane D's family members inside that hypnosis room when Diane D's other personality went berserk and wild in there?" the young white male asks. "Her family survived! I didn't hear of any of them being hurt, injured, laying in the hospital or even killed!"
"Well that's because that's her family! That's what probably saved them! Look what happened to the poor souls inside that room who WEREN'T her family! You see what happened to them! The ones who are still alive are still laying in the hospital with some of them in comas and others with fractured skulls, broken necks and their heads split opened! They might never come out of that hospital alive like the others didn't!
292
The six victims who already passed away all died right in the hospital, neither one of them ever came out alive!"
"Wow Diane D's other personality did a whole bunch of damage to these people,"
the black woman says. "That other personality of hers does not play!"
"Wow!" the younger black woman says. "I would never want to cross Diane D, because if you cross her, her original personality might not come after you, but her other personality will!"
"Well that's what happened to that little boy Marcus inside that school hallway!
Diane D's original personality didn't beat him up! I heard her original personality refused to beat him up because he was a kid, it was her other personality who did that!
So I guess her other personality said 'if she don't beat the hell out of that kid, they're gonna do it', so that's what happened! That other personality took over Diane D's body and wind up beating the crap out of that kid Marcus half killing him!"
"That's why Diane D doesn't remember beating him up, right?"
"Yeah that's why she doesn't remember it."
"Well!" the young white male shouts. "Now that Diane D has killed a priest, there goes her performance career!"
"There goes her performance career?" the younger black woman says. "What do you mean?"
"I mean she might as well say goodbye to it because as we can see, that woman's performance career is over! She is going to be put in prison for life! I'm going to miss that woman's performance! I'm going to miss seeing Diane D performing on stage because she is one hell-of-a performer!"
"She sure is! I'm gonna miss seeing her perform too!"
"Well I guess the only place she can perform now is in the slammer! At least the inmates in there will get to see her perform."
"Wow, I'm gonna miss Diane D. I used to be a big fan of hers! I still am!"
"So am I."
"You two want to be fans of a killer?!" the white woman shouts. "Seriously?! Come on you two, Diane D is a killer! She just killed her sixth victim last night! And you all talking about still wanting to see her on stage and gonna miss her performance?! She's a murderer!"
"But it wasn't her original personality who killed those people!" the young black woman shouts.
"Either or, it was still her body that threw the couch at all those law enforcement officers and authority figures! People lost their loved ones because of her!"
"It wasn't her! It was that OTHER personality who did that!"
"Well whoever! People's lives were still lost thanks to her or her other personality!"
The people sadly look at the woman. They then look at the article.
The following day, Margarita, Tomas and Barry are sitting at the long tables in front of the large banquet room at the organization with around two hundred people inside the room facing them. Margarita stands at the podium. There is a microphone at the podium. Everyone turns and faces Margarita. Margarita then speaks to the crowd and says, "Good morning everyone."
"Good morning Miss Margarita," the crowd sadly says.

"This has been a sad time for us," Margarita says with tears in her eyes. "I'm sure we all heard by now what happened a couple of nights ago. I know you all know that the priest has passed away from what happened inside that hypnosis room."
"Auuhh," the crowd says.
"Are you okay Miss Margarita?" Alex asks.
"No Alex," Margarita says. "I don't think I'll ever be okay after everything that has happened. How can my family and I be okay. Lives were lost. I will never be right after this, neither will my family. Our lives has changed forever! All we can try to do, is help the surviving victims and their families. So we're going to have a fundraiser.
With all the chaos that happened with Diane that involved the deaths of several law enforcement officers and authority figures with some others left terribly injured, we're going to do a fundraiser to raise money for the victims and their families. We're going to put on a show and sell tickets."
"What kind of show Miss Margarita?" Vivian, a black female staff members, asks.
"We're going to put on an All-Cultural show, where different cultures from around the world will perform."
"Will Diane perform in the show Miss Margarita?" Evette, a black female staff member, asks.
"No Diane will not perform in the show. She's not allowed to. She's still on house arrest and probation from that incident."
"Ohhh," the rest of the crowd says.
"But she might come around at the end of the fundraiser with her two probation officers."
"She might come around the end with her probation officers?" Kory, one of the staff members, asks. "How come?"
"Well she wants to come there to support the victims for what happened to them."
"She wants to support the victims for what happened to them? You mean she wants to support the victims for what SHE did?"
"Well as far as she's concerned, she doesn't believe she did anything."
"She still doesn't believe she did any of that stuff?"
"No she doesn't."
"But you were all there when it happened Miss Margarita," Stephanie says. "You all witnessed it first hand! I'm sure you all told Diane she did it!"
"Yes we told her she did it," Tomas says. "We showed her the entire video of what happened inside that hypnosis room, she still doesn't believe it was herself in the video because she claim she would never say stuff like that or do things like that."
"Plus she said she is not that strong or capable to lift up a psychiatrist couch or throw it across a room," Barry says. "She claims things like that are impossible."
"Even though you all and her doctors witnessed her doing that, she stilll doesn't believe she did it?" Kory asks.
"No she still doesn't."
"Wow," the crowd says.
Three days later, there is a funeral for the priest at the Cathedral. There are thousands of other priests, police officers and civilians gathered at the funeral.
