The Hands of Death

When Heaven and hell meet pt 1.

My lungs are burning and my chest feels heavy. Feels like a thousand pounds are sitting on it. My clothes are wet, I'm wet. As I sink further into the abyss of the ocean, I feel something begin to tangle itself between my legs. I try to scream for help but no sound comes out: just bubbles. I close my eyes in hopes all the torture will end soon. I'm tugged faster and faster and next thing I know I feel a cool gust of wind as cool as the winter winds. I'm falling now and can't stop. I opened my eyes, I'm in a tunnel: purple and blue.

 I look around and I see a boy about my age. I do a horrible attempt of a swim to get over there but I make it. I see that he is asleep: not wanting to wake him I turn to go back to the other side of the tunnel. As I start to leave he grabs me by my wrist and says," Don't go ..... Please." He looks as if he is about to cry so I nodded my head in agreement.

As I examine his face I notice that he has: curly brown hair, dimples on both sides of his cheeks, milky brown skin, and glasses. I say "Hi my name is Royal, what's your name?" He looks at me a little shocked. 

He probably thought I couldn't talk. He says "My name is Jamie" then he looks away and says something under his breath I can't quite hear then he looks back at me and says " You might want to look in the mirror". With a smug look on his face, I thought it was an insult but I kept it to myself.

He pulls out a handheld mirror from his pocket. I take it. When I look in the mirror, I see a girl with creamy light brown skin, glasses, long eyelashes, and shoulder-length curly hair. I look just past the mirror and see Jamie staring in awe. 

He smiles and looks away, I blush. All of a sudden everything goes dark and I scream. Jamie grabs my hand and asks me if I am ok. Me being too frightened to answer I make a weird squeal noise. The lights come back on. I release Jamie's hand.

We are in an all-white room with two chairs and a table. A loud voice starts to speak in the room. It tells us to sit in the two chairs we do so instantly without hesitation. As we sit down some type of tv turns on in front of us.

On the tv it shows a picture of Jamie then the loud booming voice comes on again and says " This is Jamie, he is 14 years old, weighs 156 pounds, height is 5 foot 11 inches, and is the MVP for the basketball team. His birthday is on March 8, 2005. His zodiac sign is a Pisces and is allergic to peanuts. He is single and ready to mingle." For a second there I thought the voice was referencing me.

I was about to say something but then a picture of me appeared on the screen so I kept my mouth shut. So their voice continued: "This is Royal. She is 14 years old, weighs 103 pounds, height is 5 feet 4 inches tall, and is the captain of the cheerleading squad. Her birthday is on November 24, 2005. Her zodiac sign is Sagittarius and is allergic to pollen and honey. She is single and ready to mingle." Now I know for a fact that was about the two of us and we were blushing now.

A door appeared to the left of us and the loud voice said " Enter through that door" we gave each other a confused look and then walked to the door. Jamie opened the door for me and motioned for me to go in first but I pushed him threw the door and I followed.
