Good News From Some One With Bad News

Why is it so dark? Did I go blind? Wait there's a light. What am I suppose to do again? Oh yeah, Punch it!

The light cracked and the dark room shattered around Butch "Uh oh' Butch fell from the blank open space and landed after falling for a few moments. "Ouch'

He rubbed his head looking back and forth. "Where am I?" he was cut off by another voice "This is purgatory" there stood a young boy drinking from a coffee mug which startled Butch "Ahhhh! Don't do that!" Butch swung at the kid but his hand phased right through him.

"Oh jeez you're a ghost!" Butch shouted. "Oh please I'm just the tour guide' the kid scoffed pointing at his name tag that read Guide and under was the name Brian.

Before Butch could say anything the floor started moving until they came to a large gray building with a door. Brian pulled a card from his pocket and swiped it on the side of the door when a voice came from a speaker next to the door "what's the password?' Brian sighed "Driving Miss Daisy' The Door opened "Good to see you Brian'

Brian turned back to look at Butch "Well come on lets go' Butch shrugged and walked through the door to find a room full of lines and desks like some kind of office place.

"Where did you say I was again?' Butch asked as the floor moved him and Brian again through the building. "Please hold all questions till the end of the tour' Brian said dully taking another drink from his mug and grabbed a megaphone.

"Welcome to Purgatory!' Brian said cheerfully into the megaphone nearly knocking Butch over. "In Purgatory is where we'll decide whether your soul will live in eternal bliss or suffer in eternal damnation!" Butch paused "Wait…you mean I'm dead!" Brian threw his mug at Butch's head "Like I said, please hold all questions till the end of the tour"

Butch rubbed his head as them moved by a line of people who seemed to glare at Butch the closer they got to the front of the line. Brian shut off the megaphone "Don't mind them there just mad they have to wait while the boss asked for you by name"

They eventually came to another door that read "Head of Management?' Butch said confused. Brian grabbed a lever "That's right' when he pulled it the floor leaned up and catapulted Butch through the door that closed behind him.

Butch got up and dusted himself off and looked to see a desk with a name plate on it that read Lou Cypher III. Behind the desk he saw the back of a chair, someone was sitting in the chair. "Yes. . . .Yes I understand that but just because he repents for his sins a minute before he dies doesn't mean he goes up he's going to have to wait in line like everybody ells" The man span around in his chair and smiled at Butch and mouthed the words "Just a sec' and went back to his phone call"Okay, okay just forward them to the complaints area at the bottom of the fill out forms okay I gotta go, thanks bye bye"

he hung up the phone. "Sorry about that, it's just so hard finding good help these days" he said putting on a pair of reading glasses. Butch finally spoke up "Hey uhhh, what am I doing here?' Lou put down the folder he was reading and took off his glasses "Your Dead Butch JoJo'

Butch took a second and looked down at the floor. "Is something bothering you?' Lou asked. "No I mean I just found out I'm dead no big deal' Butch said sarcastically. Lou laughed "You seem upset but I think I can help you' Butch leaned in "I'm listening' Lou whispered to Butch "I could send you back to life'

Butch jumped on Lou's desk "You can! Wait...what's the catch?' Lou leaned back in his chair "I just need you to send me the PowerPuff Girls'

Butch paused "You mean Kill them' Lou nodded "That's correct' Butch sat down to ponder the thought "I can do it but I gotta ask why?' Lou stood up "You see Butch the way it works down here is for every person that dies our points go up, the higher the points the better the facility runs. But when our death rate is low morale is low and ever since you left the PowerPuff girls have been able to save more lives than we can handle and I haven't been able to make my monthly quota and a definite plus the PowerPuff Girls are worth 10,000 deaths a piece"

Butch raised his hand "Hey Lou how much was my death worth?' Lou smirked "16 deaths' Butch lowered his hand in disappointment. "You see we value deaths on popularity, I mean we have some deaths in the millions and that's in celebrities. So anyway you look at it even the death of one PowerPuff Girl will get this place back in order '

Butch stood up "Where do I sign' Butch smirked and held out his hand and Lou shook it "Butch I think this is the start of a beautiful friendship'

Back Home. . .

Brick and Boomer both sat there next to the head stone "Hey…remember when we use to come here and tag up the Tomb Stones" Boomer laughed a little and Brick nodded. "Yeah…it was Butch's idea too'

Brick took off his cap and threw it next to the grave. "You know I never thought he'd be first to go' Brick said touching the head stone that read "Here lies Butch JoJo, Super Villain, Brother, Fighter and Son' Boomer read out loud.

Brick laughed abit "that's so corny who wrote that?' Boomer chuckled "Mama did' Boomers sniffed holding back tears. "He was such a jerk to me sometimes, but I miss him Brick' Brick looked away trying to hold back from crying "I know…I miss him too' Bricks voice broke.

"Come on lets go' Brick flew upward and Boomer followed.

As soon as Brick and Boomer were out of sight Buttercup stepped out from behind a large crypt and walked up to Butch's grave. "Hey Butch…umm I guess sorry wouldn't really cover it in a situation like this…oh god I'm really talking to myself in a grave yard' she kneeled over closer to the grave "What is it about you…Your all I think about now…I can't get that day out of my head, I'm losing sleep…what did you do too me Butch…' Buttercup laid next to the grave

"Maby I'll just lie here until I figure it out' after a few moments Buttercup was sound asleep.

In Purgatory. . .

Butch followed Brian outside of the building; Brian pulled a card out of his pocket and read it out loud "Congratulations, You have been chosen to participate in our 2nd Life program, please keep hands and feet inside the vehicle while returning to your body'

Brian handed Butch an envelope. "Read this when you get back to your body' Butch nodded "so how does this work?' Butch asked. A lever pulled up from the floor "Like this' Brian pulled the lever and Butch fell through the floor.

Back Home. . .

Butch opened his eyes to find himself free falling through the sky "Oh sh*t!' Butch tried to fly but he still didn't have his powers back so he continued to fall.

"What's the point of all this I'm just gonna die again!' He saw the ground get closer and he braced for impact but he fell right through the floor, through a casket and into his body.

"Ahhh!' Butch looked around "Dammit it's dark again!' Butch punched upward and through the casket and dug his way to the surface.

His hand popped out of his grave.

Enjoy The Read , I enjoyed Writing it. -Sublim3-
