Chapter 8 Butterflies In My Stomach 2

Name:The Devil WithInn Author:So_mi
When all the Reapers were out of sight, Inna finally released a sigh of relief. After checking the butterfly in her hand, she continued walking.

She kept walking and walking that she felt like there was no end at all! Just how long is this path?!

Feeling bored and hungry, she was about to ask Mei if there's any consequences in eating butterflies, like poison or something. But suddenly, she felt a force as she walked through. Like the feeling of passing through a thick squishy wall.

And when she looked up, a huge castle appeared out of thin air. It was a silver castle that seemed to sparkle under the red light of the sky. It was beautiful and not mention, huge! Probably the taller than the tallest skyscraper in the world!

Holy.... It wasn't there before! How could she miss something that huge?

From what she remembered from what Mei said, there's supposed to be a castle at the end of 40 floors.

Does this mean that she's 'awaiting judgment' next?

While pondering, she began to notice something blue forming on top of the heads of the people in front of her. It seems like a sort of halo thing.

After a few second, Inna saw a number appearing on top of Mei's head.

999?

What's the number for?

She looked up and sure enough, she got 1000.

She looked behind her and saw a huge gap of a mile between her and the rest of the queue.

Does this mean 1000 is the limit? What for?

She tried to think of reasons but she knew nothing at all. She felt minute movement in her hands and her stomach churned involuntarily.

Ahhhh, I'm really hungry.

And tired. And bored. And hungry.

Just as she was about open her hands, she saw that she was nearing an open doorway with black cloaked men at its sides. She immediately resumed her facade from before, straight arms and a blank face.

The Reapers were holding on to the handles of the huge double doors, but their faces were constantly scanning the people in the queue.

A few seconds passed and she finally reached the doors. She curiously peered at the entrance but she got confused by what she saw. The doors might be open but she wasn't able to see anything inside aside from total darkness.

She looked at Mei worriedly as she entered the doors but Mei didn't seem worried at all.

Suddenly, as soon as she stepped foot towards the doors, she disappeared out of thin air.

Inna began to get scared.

Will she see her again? She was her first friend in this place so she held a sort of special place in her heart.

Minutes later, she felt a compelling force that urged her to enter. And without her control, her body started to move towards the doors.

In every step, she wondered what will happen once she enters. Will she end up in heaven? Or maybe, in hell?

But little did she know, that her judgment would be the most crucial event recorded in all the history of heaven and hell.
