My Death

It all ended and started with a silver bullet to my head in a dark alleyway. It was a perfect night to end my miserable life. It was a clear night sky. The air was cool, the stars had an unusual twinkl to them, and I was alone. I had finished my enjoyment of my final happiness about thirty minutes ago found myself here. I stood there motionlessy then tought to myself, "Now what?" Then I smiled and closed my eyes and thought of my daughter and wife in heaven welcoming me with open arms...

"Ah, Eric Jones" said an unfamiliar voice, "Let's take a look at your life story now." A strange figure with what looked like a colorless ring above his head and two horns of the same shade of nothingness appeared before my eyes. It pulled out what seemed to be a book. "I'm your judge whether you get into heaven or hell. " said the figure.

"What's your name?" I asked.

The figure said, "Just call me Judge," as he was flipping the pages at light speed. The Judge closed the book within five seconds. "From what I have read, it says that you were born and raised in Eugene, Oregon. Your mother died in childbirth and your father was very abusive to you. At age 24, you graduated college and met a gal called Olivia. You guys got married and eventually had a daughter. But it took a dark path. Your wife and daughter were murdered horribly and the events that led to their death are unspeakable to me. Throughout your life you hunted down the people who made your life hell, and you made them pay. but sadly I cannot let you into heaven because two wrongs don't make a right. You should know that your daughter and your wife have made it there successfully."

Before I could speak I started to sink into a dark matter. Although I knew that I was dead, I felt like I was drowning...

I awoke on a black fog surrounding the ground, or what I assumed what was the ground. A small goblin looking like demond with a finger bone crown said in a high and raspy voice, "Mr. Bones, Have been awaiting you. You not need to say anything, Igor know all." he suddenly cackled. "I see you not scared. I want propose sometinng to you. How you like to make people suffer? I thinking I will make fun show for all . Course they will be charged a fee, but we will split 50/50, yes?"

Before I could respond he said, "Good, glad we agree. By the way, I read mind so you do not have to respond. "

"The name of fun show is Cruciatus ( a title well earned.) All materials be supplied for you for free. Your title be Mr Bones. Show starts with a week time. You write down what you need."

Two objects suddenly materialized into my hands and I smiled. Although his language was crude, I understood what he wanted.

"See you within a week, Igor. "
