Climbit

Sunset

Christine's POV

I was laying down, on what seems to be water. Am I on a pond? An ocean? Anything at all. I suddenly realised wait, water? Why am I on water? I opened my eyes and looked around as I felt water dripping from my back as my shirt is soaking wet.

I looked around, its so dark in here. Where am I even? I stood up from the puddle of water I was laying at. I looked at the water to see I had no reflection in it. What the- why do I not have a reflection like I should.

I then looked around again and began walking away from the puddle of water. I was amused of what im seeing. The sudden dark room was filled with light. I closed my eyes from the brightness coming through some sort of door or whatever that is.

When the light disappeared, I opened my eyes. In my shock, I saw someone. I then looked at the person more clearly until I noticed who it was. Mom! It was actually mom!

"Mom! Mom! I missed you so much!" I shout as I ran to her and hugged her. "I missed you too, sweetheart." Mom said as she hugged me back aswell.

"I never knew you were some hero, Christine." Mom said as we pulled away from eachother. "How did you know?" I asked. "Look around you, this doesnt look like earth to you, doesnt it?" Mom asked.

I looked around and she was right, it doesnt look anything like earth. "So where am I?" I asked as I looked back at her. "Have a guess, huh?" Mom said. "Im not sure, where are we, mom?" I asked.

"Dont you notice? Im here, im dead. Arent I?" Mom asked. "Yeah, wait so does that mean?" I said before she smiled and placed her hand on my cheek. Slowly stroking my cheek with her thumb finger.

"Your in the afterlife, silly." Mom said. I was shocked to hear those words. Am I dead? What happened? I dont remember. Wait a second. I remember now. It was Controlez fault.

I looked at mom as she smiled. She pointed towards another puddle of water and I look at it to see hector or controlez sitting up from his laying position.

He rubbed his eyes then his head. He looked at me in shock. "Where the heck am I?!" He shouts at me as he went closer to me and ready to fight me. "The afterlife." I said. He looked at me shocked.

"You brought me here, didnt you?" Hector said. "Yeah, I did. We did." I said. I expected him to punch me or hurt me after I said that, but to my surprise, he didnt.

"Thankyou." Hector said like he has fulfilled something. "And im sorry, Climbit." Hector said before a beam of light appears through the door as it slowly opened for him.

"Goodbye!" He shouts happily as he entered through door. The door was still opened even if Hector already got through it. Mom looked at me after and smiled at me.

"Are you ready aswell?" Mom asked. I looked at the bright light through the door hesitantly before looking back at mom. Mom placed her hand out for me to grab and I was hesitant to hold it.

Am I really ready for the afterlife? Maybe I am. My time might have came already so yes. Maybe I am ready. Am I? I think so.

I held mom's hand and smiled at her and she smiled back at me. But as we were walking towards the opened door with bright light coming through it I couldnt move. Mom looked back at me and I looked down to see whats holding onto me that is causing me to not move from here.

Some kind of plant or stem was tied around my waist. Why is it here? Why is it tied onto me right now? Was this here already a while ago? What does this mean? I had so many question for this plant tied around my waist here.

"Seems like your not ready to go, seems like life is still with you. Its not your choice, its the worlds choice." Mom said as she smiled at me. "Now go my daughter, finish what you have started." Mom continued as she let go of my hand.
