A/N: This is my first time trying to write a long fanfic. What was planned to be a collection of oneshots turned into this

John Laurens cracked open his eyes. He took a deep breath. Something was wrong. He shouldn't have been able to take a deep breath, he was sure he was dying from internal bleeding. Somehow though... He wasn't. He had survived? No. Deep down he knew he was dead. He swung his legs off the bed he was laying on, and saw an envelope which had his name on it. His hands shook as he took the letter. It's contents confirmed his theory but still took his breath away. It read:

"John Laurens. You have reached the end of your life. You have been chosen by God to live in his Kingdom for all eternity. Best wishes to you"

John half chuckled at the letter, marveling at the straightforwardness of it. He could not, however fully laugh as he remembered what he left on Earth.

Laf... Herc. He thought.

Alex.

He was over come by tears as he waited, hoping desperately for something to happen. He sniffles and looked around at the room he was in. He figured that this was some sort of purgatory. He didn't know what to do until the door to his room swung open. A sign above the door read "cleared". He cautiously left the room, and saw that he was in a place similar to New York City. He was overcome with joy at being in his second home again, yet somehow he knew that it was different. He had so many questions, so many thoughts running through his head that his feet carried him to the only place he could rely upon in times like this. He entered the pub where he had met Alexander Hamilton, the man who had changed his life.

John wondered what Alex might be doing right about now. Probably just receiving word of his death. John only wished that Alexander knew how he felt about never seeing him, Laf, or Herc ever again. John sighed and ordered a pint of a random drink. Just as John was about to take a sip (more like a draught, actually) a very unique voice floated through the air, words aimed at him.

"Well if it isn't Colonel Laurens. I thought you'd make it here sooner than later."

END CHAPTER

A/N: Yay my first cliffhanger! Who do you think is gonna bother John Laurens?
