Afterlife

When They Die

Three days passed, I've taught her all I know but as I've observed she still cannot stand what we've seen.

Death.

She cannot stand the death of someone it seems like she doesn't like seeing someone die in front of her. I cannot understand why.

We have been standing for a while now. The scene before us is empty except for the pool of blood on the room we are in. Five men were killed, shot to death, by a woman who later on shot herself.

"She suffered by their hands and she... Killed them." She said, breaking the silence.

"Humans often make mistakes and drag others into it. Sometimes they do things unforgivable because they are driven by anger, hatred, and vengeance." I stated as I send images to her mind. Images that made her flinch.

"They raped her, took turns in doing that, they beat her up until she is half dead and they just discarded her body in-God knows where. They deserve to die." She said.

"Their souls, what happened to them?" Ah I see she had noticed.

"Their souls travelled to what you humans call Hell." I said. She knew when not to ask any more.

"What about her? What about the woman? Where did she go?" Worry, is written all over her.

"We are waiting for her." I replied.

"What do you mean? Why?" She is confused. I see, I haven't told her about the trial.

"Her soul is being judged. A soul is judged when a human who've done nothing but good in life suddenly does something evil. What you could call a sin." I explained. Once I was done the woman who died two hours ago appeared before us.

"But what about those men? Their souls never appeared. Does that mean everyone is judged before their soul materializes into this realm?" She is full of curiousity as she said it. I do not regret having done what I did.

"Their souls were judged and if they didn't appear in this realm that means what they've done is something grave and is punishable in Hell for eternity. And yes, yes everyone goes to trial before going to this realm. You are no exception, my dear." My skull makes a sound as I chuckle at Aria's look.

Her eyes immediately lit up when she saw the woman after I explained to her the trial.

It seems she will be relieved sending someone off this time.
