Welcome to the dwelling of heavenly academics, all those who failed in life but aren't bad enough to go to Hell.
In the state of purgatory, spirits are purified with fire in order to be able to reach Heaven. That fire is Purg Academy, the only school in the afterlife which was established to educate the younger spirits and prepare them for Heaven.
In order to graduate, students must fully use their memoirs, relics of old memories and rediscover themselves. Only then can they gain their wings and reach Heaven.

When Angels Fall Twice {Enyphen ff}
Sunoo never believed in Heaven or Hell-until the night he died. One moment he was a college student racing toward his future; the next, he was plummeting into a realm of fire and shadows, face-to-face with the Seven Deadly Sins themselves. But instead of devouring him, they saved him. Held him. Protected him. And then sent him back. Sunoo wakes in a hospital bed, alive but changed, surrounded by terrified friends who think he simply collapsed. They don't see the faint shimmer of phantom wings behind him, or the way the shadows in the corners move when he breathes. They don't hear the voices of the Sins whispering through the cracks of reality. But someone else does. Lucifer-their seven-foot-tall creator, ancient and impossibly powerful-wants to know why a fallen angel survived a plunge that should have erased his soul. Why the Sins chose him. And why Sunoo carries a light Heaven never intended humans to hold. Because Sunoo's fall wasn't an accident. His death wasn't a mistake. And the seven beings who saved him may be the only ones who can protect him from the truth waiting to hunt him. When an angel returns to Earth, Heaven notices. When he returns touched by the Sins... all of Hell does. And Sunoo is about to learn: Sometimes the most dangerous place to be is alive.![Hope.

Evil with a D
When Morningstar fell, God felt such pain and betrayal. The Heaven's wept for the losses and pain of their creator. Now, banished from his Heavenly world, Morningstar began his own kingdom where he could cause pain and suffering to Gods favored children. It was these feelings that Hell sprung from. And it was at this that God grew all the sadder, turning forever from the angel he'd favored above all others. It was then that "Lucifer" began to terrorize the human world; trying anyway he could to gain Gods attention again. And collecting the souls of His precious children caught the most attention of all. It wasn't until one High Demon realized just how precious one of these humans becomes to him that everything changed. It is this history that takes us into the present world with a story that could change everything you thought you knew about the worlds above and below the middle plain of existence. ((This story is rated R for several reasons. Mostly Theme and content. While this story touches on religion, it's a rewritten, most "realistic, version of it.))Complete

Inner Demons
Welcome to a world of blood and gore, with demons and vampires and angels galore... The flu had always been a penetrable foe in the past, but the latest strain came from somewhere else. It wiped out 99% of the world's human population, leaving the remaining 1% to either drown in misery or find new hope in narcissism. Twenty years later, Elijah falls into the latter category. Having discovered that he, and only he, has the ability to draw demons out of the Possessed, he decides that he must have been chosen to lead the 'new world.' However, his attempts to bring the 'chosen few' under his wing do not go as well as he hopes. Lindsey, on the other hand, falls into a category of his own. As a vampire, death is no stranger, but given the lack of newly deads to choose from after the post-Flu population drop, avoiding starvation has become a struggle. He survives by sleeping through his days, but the arrival of a past enemy and a less-than-wise decision to help a murderer force him back onto the road. Unfortunately, he quickly discovers that the new world does not follow the same logic that it did before. TL;DR - Most of the world died from a flu pandemic so there's a post-apocalyptic type situation where demons possess people.Complete
