The space vessel is gorgeous, I let the Star Essence surround me, a glowing force of numbness. My water made gloves morph around. I take one last look at my home. 
Home isn't the right word. I don't have a home. I have fear, pain, and I guess now hope. I wish I didn't spend so much of my time here hating it. I wish I didn't know what was coming was going to be worse. I wish I didn't feel like I was hiding.
I let some water swirl it's icy tendrils around me, before following the red-haired lady onto the vessel.

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!
