I felt my back glow brightly behind me. I could see the blood somewhat drying on Aleks' now dead body when I turned around, seeing my wings have appeared.

I saw people running up to me and flashing lights, I think the police have arrived. I clung tight to Aleks' body, now seeing my wings triple in size and wrap around me and Aleks, blinding me to where I had to close my eyes.

Third Person POV

The only thing Aleks could see was darkness, pure black darkness. His memory of what happened was blurry, even though the events have just occurred moments ago.

Aleks kept on hearing his name being called as he felt like he was falling down, but something stopped him. Aleks quickly opened his eyes to see he was surrounded by bright white light. "Wh-Where am I?" Aleks said aloud while trying to protect his eyes from the blinding surroundings.

"Aleks!" He recognized that voice, which really didn't please Aleks as Elle appeared in front of him.

They both looked at each other for a long time, lost in their thoughts. "Elle, where am I?" Aleks repeated the question to her.

Elle's face dimmed, her smile turning into a sad frown. "Aleks, you-you're dead."

Aleks froze, he now remembered what happened. The drag race, him close to winning, the random car coming out of no where, the car crashing, Elle coming to him first, his death, it was all real. Aleks was truly dead.

"But this isn't heaven, or is it?"

Elle shook her head. "No, you're lucky that I came here right before you fell into Hell."

"Wait, there's a Hell?" Aleks asked, now seeing why he felt like he was falling down when his eyes were closed.

Elle nodded. "Because of some recent actions you have done, you are going to Hell." Aleks knew what she meant. That whole incident with her and James, the photos, the video, that was a life changing day. Looks like its wasn't in Aleks' favor this whole time. "But I'm here to change that."

Aleks was shocked at what Elle said. "What-Why? Even after all I did to you."

"Stop Aleks." Elle scolded him. She floated over, yes they were apparently floating, and placed her hand on his shoulder. "I am doing this not because of pity, because I am trying to fix what James ruined. It wasn't your fault for all of this, Aleks. James found a way to break what fate has planned for all of us, and now, I want to try to repair some of it. Aleks, you were never supposed to go to Hell, now I can give you a chance to actually go to Heaven." She explained to him.

Aleks was trying really hard to suck in all that Elle said. "I-I still don't get it. Why would you do this for me?"

Elle looked at him straight in the eyes. "Because you don't deserve to be down there, you deserve to see all of us and not be tortured. And trust me, after what has happened to me, you will not survive being down there like I survived living under your feet."

Aleks felt guilty. He realized that he never wanted to hurt Elle the way he did, but what made him feel that way towards her and do so? Elle leaned back, holding something glowing in her hands. "What is that?" Aleks asked.

Elle opened her hands, showing a small orb in her hands. "For you." She blew it over to Aleks, where it absorbed into his chest. Aleks felt something tickle his back, looking behind him to see wings. When he turned back, he was even more surprised to see that Elle had a pair of her own. "You were supposed to go to Heaven, and now you can."

Aleks looked at her with disbelief. He could suddenly feel himself floating up, so he tried to say some final apologies. "Before you go, I just want to say I'm sorry."
