I wake up on the concrete and stand up, and I try to wipe the garbage off my suit. I see my arm go through my body. I seem to be transparent, i couldn't have survived that fall, Maybe i am a ghost I worry a little and do what any ghost would do in this situation.

I look down and see my human lifeless body on the floor and i walk up to it and lay down and position my hands and feet in line with my human body thinking I'll be put back in my body and come back to life like in the movies But it doesn't work. I panic a bit and get back up, I try to remember what happened but it doesn't come to me. All my memory has been lost.

All I can remember is waking up on the street .

I look around and see the broken glass beside me i look up at the tall apartment above me, i seems that i must have fell from a tall height I wonder. Maybe i have nausea from the fall that made me loose my memory.

Suddenly in the alley way opposite I see a small boy, he has black hair and a small black suit with a red tie, he flaps his hand back and forth gesturing me to follow him I follow him through the alleyway and he makes fences and  things vanish before my eyes. I think how is he doing this?.

I look at the boy and see he is transparent like me so i figure that means he is a ghost too, it is amazing what kinds of powers ghosts have, it's amazing i wonder if i can make things disappear and walk through walls i think while following the boy.

I yell out stop and The boy halts in place and I ask him were I am? He looks at me and explains to  me that this is gods waiting room purgatory if you will. The boy tells me throughout my time as a ghost i will develop abilities like him and will be able to make things reappear and disappear at will and maybe walk through walls as a ghost he also tells me that before I am judged and let into heaven  I must completely find out why I was killed because in his ultimate plan there must have been a deeper reason to why i was killed.

The boy gestures his hands and creates a glowing yellow orb, it is bright, i put my arm up to block my eyes from the brightness, in the bright orb looks like a figure with long hair moving, it looks like a woman, the boy explains to me that when i solve this case and find out what happened my girlfriend who i watched get stabbed five years ago will be waiting for me and finally we can live a life of peace together with no worries.

I realize the woman in the orb is Sophie my girlfriend, she looks at me and her voice echos through the orb, she tells me to solve the case so we can finally be together again, Emotion hits me and my eyes tear up, i had not seen her in a long time and it will be good to see her again and finally spend my eternity with her, i walk up to the orb and put my finger on hers and a tear runs down my cheek and i tell her not to worry i will solve this case and be with her in no time, she says she loves me and can't wait to see me again, suddenly the bright gold orb pulls back and closes, i raise my hand as it closes and promise that i will be there soon.

The boy tells me to be careful and to watch out for demons, he tells me they look like hooded figures in black cloaks with red glowing streaks that are open wounds, scare that have been opened put there by the devil himself  resembling their sins, they're are also flying creatures  joining them. He explains only ghosts can see demons and are the ones That are truely bad pepole and have escaped hell and brought into purgatory to stop people from completing their unfinished business and getting into heaven, the boy explains that means they will come for me and try and stop me from solving the case and getting into heaven, they will do anything to stop me.

I tell the kid i will be careful and will avoid these demons and maybe use my abilities when i eventually gain them to try and stop them.

The kid reminds me one more time to find the reason i was killed and put the man who did it to justice to gain peace. The boy vanishes out of thin air and his voice echos as he vanishes, slowly fading away i have no more questions for the boy.

I walk  on I now understand what i must do.

It is clear that I must find out who killed me to make my life complete.

I look up to the five story apartment were the killer threw me out of and I wonder if there is more evidence to a deeper reason inside.
