I opened my eyes to find myself hooked up to a bunch of machines. It was still somewhat blurry. I looked around and saw myself lying in a white room. Where was I? Am I dead? Am I on my way to another life? How did I get here? I closed my eyes to clear my mind, when I heard a door open. I opened my eyes to see a blurry figure dressed in black sit down beside the bed. All I could do was stare at it. It didn't say anything...it just sat there. I then looked up towards the ceiling, which was white.
"Do you know who I am?"
I looked back over at the figure. In a matter of seconds my vision became clear. It was the dark figure from my dream. I couldn't be in the dream again...could I? I mean...It was all white...and bright....not dark and grim. I wanted to know who or what was under the mask.
"Who are you?" I asked.
The figure lifted its head and looked at me. It's mask was still on its face. I continued to look at it, when it shook its head.
"Let's just say I'm an old friend of the family..." It said.
Old friend? I was confused as ever now. I turned my head to look up at the ceiling when the figure stood up. It began to leave, when I heard the monitor go flat. My parents, Zacky, Matt, Val, Maia, Chloe, Brian, Jimmy, Johnny and Christina all busted into the room. They were followed by doctors and nurses with special equipment. I felt the shocks of the equipment go throughout my body, but my heart wouldn't accept them. I began to pray...all I could do was pray.
Everything went dark. It was dark and hot. I looked down at my clothes to find me dressed in black patients clothes. I automatically assumed where I was...I was in Hell. I looked around and smelt the sulfur go in and out of my nose. I began to walk towards the fire and to where I heard voices. I walked up to one of the figures, who turned. It had one of the masks on like the one that was in my dream.
"Where am I?" I asked.
"Why...Hell....of course....." It replied in a low grumble.
Hell? How could I be in Hell? I'm too young. I continued to look around, when I saw a bunch of figures around me that looked like the figure in my dream. I then knew what was under the mask. It was a demon. A demon from Hell. I looked at them with curiosity, but also with caution. Each one of them had one of the beasts with them as well. I looked over towards the center of the civilization to see one main figure sitting in a chair with its hood up. I walked up towards the chair as the figure looked at me.
"Kneel..." it said.
I looked up at it, but without planning it, I felt my knees bend and touch the ground.
"Do you know why you are here?" the figure asked.
"I don't know that answer..." I replied.
"You are here because of a strong sin that has been done in your family..."
I looked up at the figure. The figure removed its hood to show me its face.
"A sin that can only be forgiven in one way...which only you can figure out...."
I looked back down toward the ground, when it spoke again.
"My name...is Lucifer."
I looked back up. Lucifer? That's the Devil himself? I knew I was at his mercy. What was my sin? What did I do? I began to think to myself when I felt a shock. It went throughout my body, when I thought about my friends and family. I felt another shock that went through me again, but this time I heard voices....screaming voices. I tried to make sense of them, but couldn't.
"Your people are trying to contact you..." Lucifer said.
I looked up at him when a third shock went through me and I could understand the voices this time.
"KATE! PLEASE WAKE UP!"
"WAKE UP!"
"DON'T GIVE UP ON ME!"
"DON'T LEAVE US!"
"I LOVE YOU!"
Love? Leaving? Failure? I looked up at Lucifer.
"It seems like you have granted the access of listening to the outer world..."
I looked at him confused. Outer world?
"Leave my sight if you must...you have found the alternate route back...."
"Alternate route?"
"The alternate route to everything...is Love." he replied.
As soon as I tried to stand, I felt my body float above the world below me. Where was I headed? I felt one huge shock, which caused my heart to begin a beat. I was alive! I opened my eyes and saw My parents holding onto one another, Zacky trying hard not to cry, Matt holding Val in his arms, Maia crying into Brian's chest, Chloe shaking her head while crying, Johnny trying to calm her down, Jimmy with a face of shock and Christina with the same exact expression. The doctors backed away from me with astonishment.
"How...how can it be?"
Everyone looked up to see the head doctor shocked as ever. I slowly sat up and looked around. Everyone stared at me, when one of the nurses checked my back.
"There's no...no slashes...or scars...." she gasped.
"She's been touched by an angel or something...." said a doctor.
Angel? I laughed inside lightly....I was far away from any angels.
