He woke up with a gasp on the cold hard concrete. He looked around him and saw a massive school building.
'Where am I?' The man thought to himself.
A calm and quiet voice then spoke up from behind him, "You are in what is commonly referred to as the afterlife, in case you were wondering." When he turned around he saw a short girl, not too young but still not an adult, with long white hair and golden eyes.
"Who are you?" The man asked, confused.
"I name is Kanade Tachibana, I am the school council president."
"My name is... Uh... I... I can't remember my name, I can't even tell anything about me."
"Amnesia is common for people who died in accidents here."
"There you go again with the being dead thing again! If I am really dead then prove it!"
"Guard Skill: Hand Sonic." Was all the Kanade replied before a sharp blade appeared covering her hand. Without a moments hesitation, she leaped forwards and stabbed the man right in the middle of his chest.
He woke up again with a gasp.
'Was that all just a dream. That was a very strange dream if so.'
Getting up, he realised that he was in what appeared to be a school infirmary. He spotted on the chair next to him a bunch of clothes, but a second look at them showed that they had a slit in them and were covered in blood.
'W-what is going on here? Don't tell me that what happened last night wasn't a dream.' Though no matter how much he looked for an excuse, the evidence pointed towards it being real. The door then opened revealing a girl with purple-red coloured hair and very analytical eyes.
"So you're finally awake huh?"
"Who are you?"
"I am Yuri, leader of the Not Dead Yet Battlefront. This may seem a bit sudden... But can you join up with us?"
"What do you do?"
"We are a group who believe life to be unfair and are rebelling against the one whose fault it is."
"You mean God?"
"Precisely"
"So he actually exists?"
"Yes"
"And you've met him."
"Not exactly..."
"So you don't know whether there is a God or not yet you're rebelling against him?"
"He has to exist! How else would we be in this world of misfortune! How else would there be an angel that defies us?" she yelled this, tears welling up in her eyes.
"Wait.. Angel?"
"Yes the girl who stabbed you yesterday is the only link we have right now to God."
"Ok I accept that I am dead, I accept that in this world it is impossible to die, I even accept that I may never get my memories back, but what evidence do you have that she is really an angel?"
Yuri stayed silent. After a minute of silence she said, "What is you're name?"
"It's... Ugh... Come on.. O... Oto... Otonashi, I think."
"Well then Otonashi, are you going to join us?" she said over-exaggerating the use of his name.
"Give me time to think about it." he replied.
"Oh and while you're at it, think of a new name for us." she said before leaving the infirmary. Otonashi put on a school uniform lying around and soon left the room himself.
Thanks for reading!
