Chapter 1 - Chapter-1

What happens when someone dies? Do they go to the afterlife? Is there an afterlife or do they become dust?

I do not have answers nor do I have timeto think about philosophy.

"Where...am I?"

"Does it matter? This place is so nice."

"Huh? Wait where are you?"

'It sounded like that voice came from my head....almost.It sounded like me too but there was somthing else to it as if it was not really there as if it was not meant to exist.

Calm down and think.

This is wierd place,I dont know how I got here,there's a voice....what else?Wait...why can't I open my eyes?W-why can't I feel anything? WHAT IS THIS?'

He told himself to calm down over and over but it didn't work.How could it work.No normal person could stay calm in this situtation.He couldn't feel his heart if he even had one but if he did it would have broken out of his ribcage.In his panic he tried to move and run but to no avail.He was stuck and could do nothing but exist.

"This is fun isn't it?"

'There it is again....Wait why does it sound like me?It's so creepy.'

"HEY WHERE ARE WE?"

"How am I sopposed to know?"

"Why can't I open my eyes or move or feel?"

"...Do we even have eyes anymore?Im pretty sure we died."

'Well his not helpful."We died",next he'll tell me I can walk on water.Theres no way I could have died I have my hole life ahead of me but if he was telling the truth...no no there's no way.This has to be some sort of dream.Right?'

He didn't really know how much time was passing nor how much time had already passed.For awile he stared to count in order to have a grasp of how much time was passing but he soon gave up on that idea.Mostly because it wasn't helping and also because the numbers were getting so big that just saying them was taking too long.He tried talking to the voice a couple of times too but only for a short while.Talking to it for too long was....well he didn't remeber.He didn't even remeber waking up he just stared noticing gaps when tring to recall conversations and there was also that uneasy feeling he got from it.Like it was invading his mind every time he heard it.

"Are you still there?"

"Are you sure that you don't have a mouth"

"Always with the insults.I have a question.How do I see? Can I see"

"Huh? Ha,I thought you were gone ask somthing important.You can see but not how you used to.You got to do what your eyes did."

"What?That doesn't make any sense.How am I sopposed to do that?"

'He didn't answer? That a first.'

After what felt like hours somthing finally happened.It was hard to explain but it was like having 360° vision.After looking around he couldn't help but gasp.

What surrounded him was an endless void with nothing,nothing but a damned soul foating in it.Before he could even take all in thousands no milions of lights started burning in the void.It reminded him of the pillars of creations he had seen in a documentary.It was beautiful so beautiful that he could stare at it for hours.

.What are these? Stars?No stars don't really appear out of nowhere,do they? Maybe they're souls. What do you think?

You there?"

But the voice didn't asnwer and he didn't have time wonder either because all those burning lights started moving.At first it was slow around the speed of a bike and than they started moving faster and faster.After just a few minutes they were traveling so fast they looked like shooting stars.

"I wonder where they are going.Wait can I move?

He tried shifting his vison into himself and only then did he relise.

'WAIT WAIT WAIT WAIT.THOSE THINGS AREN'T MOVING I AM'

Just as he finished those words his short journey came to an end and what stood before him was...god? Those were the only words that came to mind to describe it.It was amost human exept it had no eyes,no face,its body was made out of what could only be divine light.....oh and it was as big as mountain.

Than he raised his arm and reached out for him.Any normal person would be terrified right now but after looking at it all he could feel was calmness.Why would it hurt him?After all why would god care about a lowly soul.

As the giant hand reached him he felt a strange force pulling him from below.It started dragging him deeper and deeper into the abyss.The image of this god started becoming smaller.The beautiful lights that were once burning brightly now were so stretched that it looked like they were being pulled into a black hole.His vision was becoming distorted and blurry but as he felt himself lose consciousness he heard the creature speak.

"Go Child"

'It has a voice fit for a god' -he thought as he fully lost consciousness.

Trembling,with heavy breathing and sweating all over his body he opened his eyes.
