This is one chapter from my novel, Inferior, an epic monomyth set in a dystopian future. In this future, genetically engineered humans, Superiors, rule over  Inferiors (non-genetically engineered human beings). Faced with possible extinction, the Council Superior (the six oldest Superiors who act as a governing body) develops a plan involving the Inferior (or maybe not so Inferior) youth named Chaos. This chapter falls at about the first quarter mark in the book and gives the audience the best glimpse into the overall plot of the larger text.

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!
