Just so you know, they found the August soul key already. If you didn't notice, they never got it in the last chapter so while Cat and Emery were still dead after bumping into things and people, Satou got up and found the key! Yay! The new story is coming today!
"Okay, so the August soul key said go to After, right?" March asked.
''Yeah, but may I ask what After is?" Satou inquired.
"Well, After is like a waiting room for the dead. They kinda just float around until someone's all like 'Yo sup. Here's a staircase. Go to level one.' If they say float down to level one, you're going to heck. If you go to level threes, you're in heaven. And level two, After is purgatory." Inferno explained.
"Why's it called after?" Cat asked.
"Cuz ya go straight there after you die. 'After'." Emery said.
"Okay, then let's go." Lilan puffed up her chest and walked down a staircase, floating in mid air. They all followed her to level two. They were now in After. It wasn't actually depressing. The ghosts were holding nachos and playing tennis. March nodded in approval. She walked up to the person working there.
"I'm just here for an investigation. Me and my friends aren't dead I know but you know about how the Monthies are gone, right?" March asked the worker.
"Yeah check around. But watch out for the ghosts, they get rowdy." The worker waved his hand signaling do what ya need to.
Cat started acting all Sherlock Holmes and inspected everything. EVERYTHING. She ate a bunch of seafood.
"It's ah... -BURP- it's not in the seafood." Cat sighed.
"Ew. Okay, let's check in more secluded places. The key's more likely to be there." Emery pointed out.
"Sounds good, sweetie. Let's go." Satou hung his arms on Emery's shoulders and kissed her.
'What are you doing." Emery trudged.
"Carry me on your shoulders." Satou yawned.
"Do it yourself." Emery tried to shrug him off.
"Then say you love meeee." Satou got heavier.
"I LOVE YOU, YOU PERSISTENT @&$%#{£!!!" Emery tried kicking him.
Satou caught her leg. "Eh, good enough. But can you kiss me to prove it?"
Emery dark pulsed him. This time he couldn't get away. "GAAAH! OW! WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU!?"
"Lots of things." Emery reluctantly helped him up.
Inferno lead them around to different rooms in After. Lilan sat in a sink.
"Aaaah, the water's nic- WHAT THE- OW!!" Lilan cried. She was sitting on a key.
"The September soul key was in a sink? Weird..." Inferno muttered.
"Hey, at least we found it. Let's go." March and the others left the room.
They walked into an entry room and saw two guards frozen. There was a ghost in front if them. One frozen guard had the ghost's leg. She cursed under her breath and tried to pry her leg away.
"Hey!!" Satou yelled. "What're you doing!?"
The ghost girl had long brown hair and bright blue eyes. She had a purple jacket wrapped around her, with skinny jeans and black boots. She just rolled her eyes and obviously didn't care. A fleet of guards flew out from every door. The ghost clenched her teeth.
"What's the matter!? Why don't you want to go!?" A guard asked.
"You're going to level three, that's a good thing!" A guard followed.
"NO!" The ghost girl snarled. "I DON'T WANT TO GO!"
"Why!?" Another guard yelled.
"NONE OF YOUR CONCERN!" The the spun in circles, sending ice in every direction. Those guards were now frozen too.
March and the others were hiding behind a door.
"We have to do something!" Inferno whispered.
"C'mon guys!" Lilan motioned them.
They strolled out from behind the door and stepped over ice. The ghost girl twisted around to face them, her wavy brown hair flew behind her.
"You aren't guards... right?" The slowly put her hands down, the icy aura around it fading.
"No, we're not." March replied. "But why don't you want to go to heaven?"
The ghost girl looked away. "I-It's nothing..." She whispered.
"No really, why? Are you afraid of leaving Topia?" Lilan asked.
''No, it's fine.. Don't worry about me." She glanced down.
"Well, what's your name?" Cat asked.
"Amy.. My name is Amy Snow." Amy answered.
"How'd you die?" Emery questioned. They were trying to gain her trust so they could talk her into going to heaven.
Amy's eyes started tearing up. "Why.. Why!? WHY AM I DEAD!?" She cried.
"What do you mean?" Satou tried to calm her down.
"I was a powerful winter sprite! I was unstoppable! So how am I dead!? It's like all my power just drained away and I faded from existence!? How!?" Amy growled.
"But aren't you okay with heaven?" Inferno questioned further.
"NO! I still have a full life ahead full of adventure! If I can just find my body... And repossess it.. I can be reborn! No, I'm not going to heaven! Whatever happens, I'm going to finish what I started!" Amy announced.
"If you want adventure, come with us! We're on a journey to rescue the kidnapped month goddesses!" March asked.
"Adventure!? Kidnapped!? Rescue!? I'm in!'' Amy grinned.
"And who knows, we might just find your body!" Cat smiled.
"Let's do it!" Amy laughed.Hope you like the new character, Amy, Pittbulls44 ! Next, I'll release the new story! Then the special chapter, then the custom drawing for Alexatheturtle ! Yay!
