Author's Notes: Storytelling using 200 words was by Uncoloured, a Gakuen Alice author. Each chapter will be exactly 200 words, no more no less - not counting A/Ns, of course.

Dedicated to and inspired by my friend, Lizzy F, who said this line: "At least Cato and Clove will live happily ever after in whatever place they go to in the afterlife."

I don't know where I am right now.

Something in the back of my mind tells me I am somewhere between Heaven and Hell; but what does it know? What I am sure of is that this place is gray and cold; but not as gray as the stones I used as improvisational weapons or cold as real knives. It just makes me feel lonely.

Hah, Cato, you're lonely? This place is slowly driving you nuts.

… Yeah, I'm talking to myself. I'm definitely nuts.

Groaning, I try to push myself off the cold floor that I've been sitting on, but fall right back on the surface. When I look down at my traitorous legs, parts of the flesh have been torn off, exposing the bones in each leg; and I can see traces of dried blood painting my feet red. For a moment, I am shocked at my gory condition. When I try to touch the bone, I notice my arms are in a similar state. Some sensible part of me realizes there is no way this is Heaven. If it was, it reasons, those limbs would be patched up.

I guess I'm stuck here until someone saves me.
