??? AM

I wake up in what I thought was my bed. I kept thinking to myself "must've been a dream." I look around my room. This is not my room. All my posters were replaced with different ones. There was one with 6 frogs on it dancing, one with a red guy with sunglasses and a big yellow guy, and one with 3 ghosts rocking out. It was all so weird. I looked out my window to see the sun shining but the the green grass was replaced with pink clouds. I'm still dreaming I'm still dreaming I'm still dreaming.

I get up to find myself still in my school uniform but a little dirty. I guess the only thing left to do was leave. I walked out the door and found myself outside instead of in a different room. One room house I guess. But that was the least of my concern. As I looked around there were some absurd, crazy things were around every corner. A monkey and a Mandril carrying golf equipment, a cat and a dog playing badminton in biplanes, 4 guys with extremely long legs, box heads, and red bowties. I'm still dreaming. I'm still dreaming.

I turn around to see a large  blue frog with darker blue pants in my face. I jump back in fear. "Hey you, your finally up!" He said to me. At that  exact moment, my fight or flight activated. In a state of panic, I ran for it. Dodging obstacles and strange looking character that came in my way.
Hopefully if I run fast Fast enough I can escape this nightmare. Maybe I'll wake up in the hospital, surrounded by my friends and family. That sounds nice. Unfortunately for me, all these nice thoughts distracted me and I ran straight into a brick wall. I lie on the ground to see the blue frog standing over me. This was not a dream. 

"Ok ok I give, I'm not dreaming, what the hecks going on?" I ask him. "Come with me, I'll explain everything." He said. He helped me up and i followed him, despite not knowing this guy. But  at this point im kinda desperate for answers.

12 PM

Me and the blue frog walked into a cafe. We sat on the red cushy stools in front of the counter.

"So I assume you have a lot of questions, huh?" The blue frog said, reading my mind. "I'm know around as the Bandleader, you must be Romeo. Before you ask how I know your name, I'm a special kind of person here, and we get a list of the new guys.

"Where am I anyways? What happened?" I asked, terrified. "That's an easy question" the Bandleader said with a smile on his face. "You died."

It felt like time froze at that very moment. It all made sense. The truck killed me and I was in someone kind of weird afterlife.

"W-where am I?...." I asked, confused And frightened.  "You're in a very special afterlife. An afterlife for those so passionately into music. A world run entirely by rhythm. This....is rhythm heaven!" He screamed, clearly way too enthusiastic about dying And ending up in crazy music world. "Can I get you 2 anything?" Said a voice from behind the counter. "Uhh, can I get a-" I froze in place when I turned around and saw who was exactly saying that. Behind the counter was a small white dog with big red headphones. "Uhhh...nevermind...." Said and turned back to the Bandleader. "Hey kid, tell you what, I got a show to do in a few minutes, how about afterwards I'll show you around town?" The bandleader said. I agreed and decided to follow him. Might as well see his performance I guess, whatever it is.
