Chapter one

Crashes of life

I was driving so I could pick my son up from school, I saw Austin, my son smiling and waving at me as I pulled up, I glanced up to see a young teenage girl talking on her phone coming my way fast, she was to distracted by her conversation to notice she was in the wrong lane, I glanced back once more to see my sons smiling face now twisted in horror, CRASH BOOM and the sounds of kids screaming were the last sounds I heard before I pasted out, that and the sound of my son screaming mom.

I awoke to the sound of doctors saying "Don't worry mam everything will be okay" I saw my son and husband leaning over the bed, my sons face still twisted in horror, he had blood on his shirt, my blood. I passed out once again only yo awake to a voice again, not a doctors nor a nurses, it was my sons' voice."Hm your awake"

Said Austin.

I opened my eyes completely, I was floating in nothing but complete darkness, "How are you feeling?'" The voice that sounded like Austin's called out. I whipped my head around to see my son too floating in the black abyss. "W-where am I?" I said. He looked at me then slowly said " Nowhere." I looked at him trying to figure out if I misheard him.

"W-what do you mean by that" I said nervously awaiting his answer. "What I mean is that your not in heaven or in hell, you are nowhere." I looked at him confused and scared still trying to make sense of what was happening." Am I dead?" I asked. He looked at me and sighed." Yes." He said blankly. I looked at him unable to move. I snapped. " HELP HELP ME PLEASE SOMEONE HELP!" I yelled to the top of my lungs.

"It won't work your dead" He said so casually it made me mad. " I can't be dead! I have a family to take care of!"I yelled." So, you think just because you have a family your immune to death?"He said. I sat there. I finally got up the courage to ask him " Why do you look like my son?" "Huh?" He said as if he was lost in thought.

Irritated I said it once more " Why do you look like my son? Did he die too? Is he okay?" He looked at me and sighed. " No he isn't dead, I'm your soul" I stared at him " My what?" He sighed once more.

"Soul: A soul is the very thing that makes you human, not your heart not your feelings your soul. It lives within your body which is really just a shell. Your soul takes the image of your strength which is why I look like your son Austin."

I just sat there, said nothing, finally calming down from the shock of being dead, I looked up to see my son- no my soul getting smaller and smaller, I never saw him again, nor did I see me son Austin or my husband again.

Day of the funeral

Preacher guy: Here lies the body of Amy Nonders, a beloved wife and mother, she leaves behind a son , Austin, and a husband, Keeth. May we take this moment of silence to remember her not only as a person but a friend.

"I- I am going to miss you mommy"He said trying to hold back tears like a big boy but couldn't, he broke down. The husband sat there not saying a word with a dead stare in his eyes like a cold dead fish, he watched as the casket went farther and farther down into her grave.

The End
