137 these where the numbers Lauren knew. This was her name. 137 was her identity. She had rebelled. She had done everything possible to try to escape, yet every time she failed. Her hope had been disbanded. She was done.
Yet there was still that tiny bit of hope flickering inside of her. That stupid spark that would not go away.  Because hope always leads to pain. Yet in darkness there is light. Hopelessness there is hope. In cruelty there is kindness.
                                                                                            ....

What happens when she gets a chance of freedom? Controlled freedom, that is. A prisoner in the outside world?

Geoff and Naomi are dead, and they're depressed, but when Geoff's cat Bernie dies as well, they embark on a wild journey to find it in the underworld. ***** When Geoff dies, alongside his girlfriend Naomi, they end up sharing an apartment in the Underworld as skeletons. But after a few years, Geoff starts suffering a mid-death crisis. What's the purpose of going through the motions as a skeleton if you can't really live? Then he gets word that his cat, Bernie, just died and he can collect him and bring him home! Geoff and Naomi hurry to get Bernie only to discover that, due to a clerical error, their cat has been lost. With the hunt for Bernie giving new purpose to Geoff's un-life, he and Naomi begin a quest to get back their cat. Battling skeleton pirates, climbing the sky ladder and facing off against the villain who took Bernie, Geoff is determined to find his purpose - or die a second time trying!
