Death is funny. People say that dieing hurts. When I hit the ground, I felt all the pain leave my body. Even though I was dead, it felt like I could finally breathe again.

My death was instant as soon as I made contact with the ground. It was completely painless. Now that I was dead, I completely forgot what pain felt like. It felt nice.

People also say that when you die, you appear in a tunnel with a light at the end of it. And that it's your choice to go towards it and officially die or not.

I appeared already in the light. There was no tunnel. There was no choice. And even if there was, I would have gone into it anyway. It meant my friends would be safe.

A man greeted me. His name was death. I greeted him like an old friend. I've come close to death many times. I've come close to meeting him before.

Death lead me to the clouds. There was a golden gate. On the other side was paradise. A man named Jesus opened the gate. He welcomed me with open arms.

I smiled. Death is peaceful. I used to be afraid of death. I don't know why I was now that I'm here. I wish I could know what happened. If we won. If Felix is safe. But I know I can't go back. Death is permanent. That was certain.

Heaven is a beautiful place. I close my eyes. It felt nice. But I wished I could say sorry to everyone. I know I'll be able to eventually. When they come and join me here. I hoped that wouldn't happen anytime soon though.

I smiled, and joined the rest of the spirits.
