I woke up with the light beaming down on my face. My eyes open to see a white room once again, "god damn, does anyone want to buy some other wall paint". I sat up on the bed and started wondering how I even got on the bed in the first place, I mean I am still 412 pounds. Whoever lifted me, must have worked out, hope their back is still okay. I heard a knock on the door and soon the door opened for Tyler to poke his head out. "Hey, I heard your footsteps, how are you feeling?". I didn't realize how nice it was to hear someone ask me how I was. "I'm.... okay I guess? where am I?" "Well, welcome into the REDEMPTION TRIBE" 

"The redemption tribe? What is that?" I asked as I lifted my doe eyes from my lap to Tyler's face. I never realized how soft his skin was, or how blue his eyes shone. "Well, look around." As I looked around me, I saw tons of fat people, some even heavier than me. They stood around my bed like a cult, and for a moment I asked myself: "Is this what it's like to have a family?" I stuttered, finding it difficult to find words to explain how I felt.

"You're not the only one who wants revenge for the way you've been treated," Tyler said. "Your dad and I have been planning this for a long time."

I stared up at him, eyes blank with shock. "My father?" Tyler smiled, knowing. "I understand this all may come as a surprise to you Emily, but there is much you do not know. Especially about the tribe. Follow me."

I slowly rose from the bed, head pounding. The cult-like crowd around me was forced to the side as my bulk pushed through. Tyler grabbed my hand gently, leading me through the white room. He opened a door, showing me a world of saturated greens and blues. Birds flew through the air chirping, but then I looked closer. They weren't birds, but something else completely. Something I have never seen before. Something winged with four eyes. An... alien.

I looked around. For once in my life (or death? post-life? idk what I am rn) I saw a world that looked like me. The bird aliens were fat. The ladybugs were fat ladybugs. The cats were the same. The clouds were fat. I almost understood what it might've been like to be skinny. But then I wondered...

"Where has this world been this whole time?? Could this be...fatty heaven?" 

Tyler replied, "I guess you could call it that. You know, I used to be just like you too. Stabbed a little too many times. But I could not do what we here at the REDEMPTION TRIBE need you to do. In fact, we've been waiting for you, fatty" 

Another fatty showed up. "It is time for you to hear, THE FATTY PROPHECY"
