Depths of Death
Introduction
My name is Sirius Black. I'm not dead. Oh, no. I'm nowhere near dead. Characters don't really die... when their use in the story is over, they go to a special little place called Alleu. Alleu is like an island in every story, book, movie, TV show, play, wherever there is a character, you can find Alleu, where "dead" characters live for eternity after their story is over. It's small. When it was first founded from the first story deaths, Niah and Sira, they didn't think that a lot of stories were really going to have characters dying every which way, so they made it small not to take up too much space. It's a bad place to be. If you survive to the end of your story, then you're really lucky. You get to stay in that universe through counts and recounts for eternities.
The first telling of the story, you are yourself. But when you "die" the first time... you get a copy at the beginning of the story so that it can still function. They don't know that they are a copy... or in a story at all, really, but the originals do. We know when we're dying over and over again... not that it hurts or anything, but it's kind of depressing. Most characters like me just get over it, but there are some crazies who can't get over death. It's stupid, but the truth.
Well, I said that Alleu was small, right? Well, Remus has a theory that we can expand it. We don't know if it's possible, but it's worth a shot because stories are getting crowded together. It was once that stories that went together shared a complex, but it got really bad before my time, and it was floors for a little bit... now if your story was huge you might get two apartments of decent size. My story, Harry Potter, is considered huge because of the death rate in the last book, so the ones without names or weren't important to the plot line share the slightly bigger one, and us with names and importance to the storyline share the smaller one. We have Remus Lupin, Nymphadora Tonks, Mad-eye Moody, Fred Weasley, Severus Snape, Albus Dumbledore, James and Lily Potter, Bellatrix Lestrange and Voldemort... In the same apartment. It's kind of crowded.
Remus's idea was to talk to the extremely powerful creators- Niah and Sira in the first home of Alleu. We could get them to expand it, if they would actually come out and see how many people are dying in stories every day. They don't like us new characters... we're a "disgrace." But Remus thinks he knows how he can sway them in our favor. As long as I keep my temper, he tells me. Please. I can keep it under control, Molly isn't around here. If he doesn't bring Voldemort, Niah and Sira should listen to us quite nicely.

Not-So-Short Author's Note: I know, I know, I still have DTL, DSS, and many other fanfictions to finish, but... I want to do this! It came into my head, randomly, while I was messing around on my new laptop, and I was writing about Sirius... and this happened. So I'm going to go with it and see how it turns out.
Rate and review, pretty please? With a cherry on top?
Anyway, it is mainly about Sirius, and what happens to him, etc. And it will go better than my suck-y summary is. I really can't summarize well :/ So be patient, chapter one is almost finished!
