Lydia Enia.  No last name yet. I refused to use my families name. 
The pain, grief, hatred, and dread that followed it around was something I  did not want to take on.  I wanted someone else's name. My lovers' name, under the law of marriage. But only being 16, there was nothing I could do. 
         Running away wasn't an option, neither was suicide. Because I didn't want to end my life, no, in fact, I wanted my life to truly begin. Here at this shitty high school was not the beginning.  I somehow needed a way to make it end, and I knew he was the key.

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!
