Jax 's P.O.V.

They say when we die that it's like being born. You go through a dark tunnel and end up in a new place. That we arrive and are greeted by people we love. If that's true, who will be waiting for Spencer when he dies?

" Do you think Spencer will go to heaven when he dies?" I ask softly as we drive down the road.

Gabriel's eyes squint as he tries to keep the midday sun from blinding him as he drives.

" I am not God. I don't determine where he goes. That is between him and God. All I can do is help him confess his sins. The rest is up to him."

" Would God accept him? I mean he did do a lot of bad."

" God wants us to ask for forgiveness for our wrongs. I know this is hard to believe, but God has accepted worse people into heaven. Look at the thief on the cross. He was a murder and a thief. If God chooses to forgive us, then we must do the same with one another."

" Forgiving him for letting Simon almost rape me is a hard pill to swallow. He also made Negan suffer in a cell. I do forgive him though, and that's why I wanted him to have his dying wish. I told Negan that's what grace is. Giving someone something they don't deserve."

" That's true."

Gabriel's eyes glass over, and a small tear escapes down his cheek.

" What's wrong?"

" I was just remembering when I did something unforgivable."

My memory replays the story he told us about him locking his church members out, allowing them to be killed.

" It must be hard to live with so much guilt. Do you know if God forgives you for it?"

He smiles, as we pull into the sanctuary. The guards above us allow us in without question. He parks the car and turns off the engine.

" Yes, he did. He sent me you guys when I needed you most. Gave me the chance to redeem myself. God forgives us when we ask it of him. We still pay for our sins, but he gives us the grace to endure til the end."

" Yeah, I guess so."

We walk up to heavy metal steps, then inside the cool building. People rush around us eager to finish their work, and head for dinner down below.

" Let's go find Negan. I am sure he is eager to get this over with."

I gently knock on Negans door, and hear a faint just a minute. The door swings open revealing my husband. His tall body is framed perfectly by his black t-shirt and faded jeans.

" Well look who it is? The creepy as shit reverend and my hot ass wife."

Negan glances at Gabriel, giving a curt nod.

" You here to take that assholes confession before he dies. So, you best get to it. The cells are on the bottom level near the back entrance. My guards are expecting you to show up. So go take care of him, and then come back here."

" Of course. I will be back as soon as possible."

The door closes, leaving me alone with my husband at last. His face lights up as he pulls me close to chest.

" I let Dwight go this morning."

I pull away, shock evident on my face.

" You did? Why?"

" I realized why he did it. He loves sherry and just wanted to be with her. I know I would do anything to be with you no matter who I had to betray. "

A big smile plays on my lips as I slip my fingers under his shirt. A smile forms on his face as he feels my fingers caress his body.

" I think you deserve a reward for that," I smirk seductively.

" Damn, I won't turn you down."

A couple of hours later, we head down to the balcony. Saviors kneel upon our arrival. Negan' hands clasp the metal rail as he addresses the saviors down below.

" I want you all outside in the courtyard in ten fucking minutes. We are going to have us a little bonfire. Afterward, we will be having a big party to celebrate the defeat of our enemies."

The crowd cheers at this news and hurries to the courtyard outside the doors. Negan takes my hand in his and we head down to the courtyard.

Once we get outside, I see a large metal pole with wood around it. The wood is tied neatly keeping them in place.

Two guards lead Spencer to the pole and tie him securely to it. Spencer's face is etched with fear as his fate is now revealed.

" Are you burning him alive?" I ask hesitantly.

" Yes, for a few minutes. Once he has felt the pain for a little while, I have a sniper set up to finish him off."

" Well, at least he won't suffer for long. I know a point needs to be made, but at least you're being compassionate about it."

" Damn right I am."

The fire is lit, along with Spencer's screams. Time goes slow, with every flicker of the fire. Black smoke fills the air along with the smell of burning flesh.

Once Negan sees Spencer's body begin to engulf, his head shoots up, alerting the sniper to shoot. A loud shot ends the traitor's life. A loud eruption of applause follows his death, allowing this event to finally be put behind us.
