“The world is so blurry...”

I tried to open my eyes, but the light is too bright. As I adjusted to the world I’m in, I thought it just a dream. I saw weird people with wings riding pegasus and dragons. There were lots of clouds and some weird people were flying with their wings. I realized I was on a floating island, but I wanted to get back to the real world. This seems too unreal to me, so I jumped off the floating island. As I begin to regret my decision, white wings erupted from my back. It hurted really bad and it feels I hit my back against titanium. At that point, I didn’t know what to do. As I picked up my senses, I used my instinct to fly back to the floating island, staggered.

“Hey!”

I heard someone behind me and I’m hoping he could give me answers.

“Umm, who are you and where am I? Where do these wings come from?”

“Whoa, that’s a lot of questions, but it’s normal for an undefined to ask them.”

“Wait, what do you mean by undefined?”

“Well, let me introduce myself first.”

“I’m Andrew, an undefined like you.”

“I know my way around this place and been here for 5 months”

“I was trusted to help undefines and to answer your questions, you died. Since you died, you’ll be transported here and no, you won’t remember a lot about how you died or your past life. There is an academy called “Angels and Demons” You’ll be at the academy for 10 years till you graduate and get a job here in the afterlife.”

“For your wings, it is actually really rare for you to get wings already at the start. Others usually get them after 5 hours of transporting to this world.”

“Oh yeah, what it means to be undefined is you are not determined if you are an angel or a demon yet. You’ll soon have to pick sides, I don’t know when though.

I am still a little confused, but why did I die? I suddenly remembered that I just got into a car crash while I was driving back to my parent’s home.

“Umm, hello? Are you there?”

“Oh, sorry. I was just wondering why I died, this world is kinda confusing to me.”

“Don’t worry, you’ll be able to pick things up as you go through your years at the academy.”

Andrew looks at a weird device and it has the number 45 displaying in red.

“Oh, shoot! We’ve spent too much time talking. We’re supposed to talk for a limit of 30 minutes and then you go to the academy with me.

“Well, I’m not sure if I’m ready, but let’s go..!”

“Ok, great! Flurry, get over here!”

A cute and fierce looking pegasus quickly arrived to where me and Andrew are.

“Hop on my back..?”

“Oh wait, I haven’t got your name yet.”

Oh yeah, I totally forgot to tell him my name.

“Uh, my name is Sophia.”

“Ok Sophia, hop on!”

I hopped on and I didn’t expect this, but the pegasus was so furry. As me and Andrew flew to the academy, I watched the sky filled with clouds. The breeze was so cooling and I wish this ride lasted a long time, but it had to come to an end.

“Here we are!”

“Wow...”

The academy looks beautiful and historical. As I walked to the entrance, I saw a statue of a person with angelic wings on its back with demon horns on its head.

“That statue represents peace and justice between angels and demons.”

I was surprised that Andrew noticed me staring at the statue. As I walked closer to the entrance, I saw a man and he had angelic wings on his back. I quickly assumed he was an angel.

“Hey Andrew, got another undefined with you?”

“Yup!”

He walked toward me and looked into my eyes.

“Hm, you’re special”

He let me go after saying that, but I was confuse on why he said I was “special.” The angelic man opened the door and I spotted stairs leading to another door. The angelic man guarded the entrance while me and Andrew started going up the stairs.

“That man was Gerald, he is a professor at this school and sometimes offers to guard the entrance of the academy.”

“Oh, wow.”

We got to the top of the stairs and Andrew opened the door.

“This is the academy, welcome Sophia!”
