I woke up in a waiting room sitting down. I remembered that I was shot in the chest. I thought I died. Maybe this is the afterlife. I looked around to see no one. Outside the front doors, which were glass, I only saw white. Then, the door opened. It was a man in a lab coat. “Hello, I’m Keith. You’re in a place for people who died. These people have split personalities, and it’s sometimes hard for the world to choose an afterlife for them. Follow me.” I got up and followed him into a white room of two men on thrones facing me. One was blue and ethereal. The other was completely gold. They both looked at me. “This one is…different”, said the gold one, “I detect no split personality.” Keith looked at him, shocked. “So, what do we…”, Keith started. “We need time”, said the blue one. “Uh, I’m a glitch”, I said. They all stared at me. “I’m a being of chaos. My physiology makes no sense. I act a bit glitchy in the head, too.” I laughed. “I have always been fond of Valhalla and Heaven.”
Keith turned to me and said, "Until this is settled, you will be staying here at the waiting room. Meanwhile, we'll be discussing whether you should go to Heaven or Valhalla. I wouldn't be surprised if Buddha also shows up." I walked out, and the door closed. Stupid godly beings. I walked to the front doors and opened them. It was just a white void that went on forever. I looked down. I might as well. I stepped off, and I fell down. I continued descent for a few seconds before I blacked out.
I opened my eyes to see a woman looking down at me. She had a blue T-shirt and jeans. We were in a meadow. “Hi”, she said, “I’m Fiena, goddess of order. This is my personal copy of Earth. It has no people.” I got up. “Order? Well, I’m a being of chaos. Are you okay with that?” “Of course. I see good in you.” “I’m X”, I said. “Do you know how you ended up here?” “I probably just glitched into another reality. It happens.”
