Enma got up from the bed and went straight for the door. He opened it and a wave of aromas filled his nostrils. A wave of smells from baked bread, the aromas of newly blossomed flowers and a smell of a church. He went out of the room and walked along the corridors. With every passing person, he saw that everyone has a halo on their heads meaning everyone here is an angel or a soul.
"I'm in Heaven…" he breathed out in amazement and a little fearful thought. "I'm dead…."
He continued walking, then he passed an angel with ragged clothing and red hair, she looks familiar to him somehow. The she-angel bumped into a big guy, a big fat angel and she was knocked out.
"Hey! Watch where you're going, you lowly 5th class angel!" he spat out. "You are just a little 5th class angel so watch where you're going!" he kicked the little she-angel to the ground.
What's happening? I'm in heaven right? Why is there something like this here? Enma thought. He raced to the whimpering girl and he blocked the next kick coming. "Who are you now?!" bellowed the fat angel, everyone is now staring at the boy who wore ragged shirt and messy hair. "A new angel sir. Please forgive my friend here," Enma apologized.
"Hey you must really look where you're going or else some fat idiot will trample you," he said with a wink to the girl.
"Huh?! Fat idiot?! Who in the damned's name are you calling an idiot?!" the fat angel tried to kick Enma and Enma was sent flying to the wall. "Tsk. Pitiful," and the fat angel walked away. The girl raced towards Enma but he was already getting up.
"I'm sorry for dragging into that, are you okay?" said the girl. "Yeah, I'll be fine. Are you though?"
"Yes, I am. Thank you for standing up to me," she observed Enma. "You don't have a halo but why are you here?"
"I like to find out why myself. Hey do you know where I can find the chamber of the gods?" Enma asked but the girl looked dumbfounded.
"I don't know what that is."
"You live in the Mt. Olympus and you don't know where the Chamber of the Gods is?" Enma stood up. "Be careful next time, I'll look for it myself."
As Enma strolls down the wide corridors of temple, he glimpsed the outside world of the temple and saw in utter disbelief that the utopia that people think of Heaven is far off course. It was like a normal civilization from Earth. Run down houses, children playing down at the streets and old guys drinking. Angels with chains on their feet, the rich ruling the poor. The Utopia called Heaven is not what it seems.
He avoided his eyes on the streets, he directed his look at the huge double doors at the end of the hall. It was decorated with mural of how God saved humanity from the devil. At opposite ends are two guards with red armor with spears. As Enma walked closer, he was blocked by the guards' spears and was told to scram.
"But I have questions!" Enma pleaded.
"We don't care! Everyone has questions and John the Baptist is very busy right now!" said one of the guards.
"Idiot! Why did you tell him John the Baptist is inside! We aren't allowed to tell anyone that God is dead!" said the other guard.
"Wait God is dead? The Almighty and the Powerful?" Enma questioned in disbelief. The two guards nodded.
"How?! How is the Ultimate Being dead?! How -" and a hand landed on top of Enma's shoulder. A wave of relief and goodness washed over him.
"Yes he is dead because of Satan, your grandfather," a deep warm voice came from behind Enma and he turned around.
"Lord John! We thought you were inside!" the two guards gasped seeing the white robed Brazilian man behind Enma.
"Lord John? The John the Baptist? The one who baptized Jesus Christ?"
"Yes, Seijuro. I am that and now I am the Lord of Heaven," he said with a smile to Enma.
