Chapter 2: Waiting for Judgment
Loki entered the room slowly. It was huge and spacious. Looking around he was quite amazed. The walls that were stood high. The only actual wall was the one with the door which he had just entered through was on. That one was tall and white. The remaining 3 walls were made of glass. There was no ceiling however. It stood open above him letting the light in and the blue sky with white clouds flowing through it show brightly and clearly. He took his eyes away from the sky and looked around the room. It was set up as if for a court room. Well, in a way he thought. There was no stands or seats for which spectators or a jury could sit. The one part that signified it was like a court room was the large stand in the center of the front of the room. That is where a judge would sit if this was a court room. The stand was amazing. It was pure gold with silver winding and twirling throughout the whole thing. Loki stared at it for only a few more seconds then looked around again. Nothing else was really in the room. It may be huge, but it was rather empty. The only other thing was a small, round, gold table in the back left hand corner of the room. And then a small, round, silver table in the back right hand corner of the room.
"Pretty nice." He muttered under his breath and he nodded as in approving the room to his standards. Though he knew that this was more than one of the greatest rooms in the entire universe. This was the room that every one would come to once they died and be judged. This was the deciding place of where you would spend the rest of eternity. If you would stay up here in paradise, or be sent down to hell to live out the rest of what you would wish would have ended when you died as you'd be with the demons.
Loki now stepped towards the large glass wall to his right and looked out. It was beautiful. Looking out over the blue sky as clouds floated by. He recognized he must be on the edge of heaven since there was no angels sitting on the clouds as some did at some times. He never had, but still some did. He had had more important things to do than to waste time sitting on some cloud. He had had people to kill. He stood lost in his own memories for a few seconds as he remembered his job as the angel of death. He had liked it. It was his duty and he was good at it. He smiled as he thought of how they had never gotten another angel of death after he had been kicked out. He knew he was the best.
"Nice View isn't it?" Loki jumped as the voice behind him spoke. He turned quickly. Metatron stepped forward. "Sorry to scare you lad." He clasp his hands behind his back and look out over the sky for a second, then turned to Loki.
"Where the fu… I mean, where's God? This is my judgment isn't it? I've been waiting here for like 20 frickin' minutes. So where is she?" Loki asked turning in a circle with his arms outstretched. Metatron was not amused.
"Don't go getting cocky. Things take time. She'll be here when both of you are here." Loki stared at Metatron for a second, then spoke.
"Both? This is just mine though. Why will someone else be here? Who is it?"
"Well you know, you and…" He trailed off to a point where the mumbled name was not a point of hearing Loki could understand. "And so we have to wait until he gets here. Now just relax. It won't be long."
"Who?" He never got an answer. Metatron disappeared in front of him. Loki sighed.
After waiting another 20 minutes the door opened. A man in a white gown stood at the doorway holding the door open. It sounded as if a large struggle was going on in the hallway.
"Let me go! I don't need to be fucking judged! Let me go!" As soon as Loki heard this, though he had not seen the actual person, he knew who it was.
Serendipity entered the room backwards as she dragged Bartleby along on the floor as he kicked trying to get loose from her. She sighed and looked at Loki.
"Apparently he's aware of how pissed God is at him. If I were in his position, I'd probably try to escape too." She let go of him and he stood up. Dusting himself off first, he then made a run for it, only to be stopped by the man at the door. Slowly, he walked back over to Serendipity and Loki.
"Hey buddy." Bartleby said looking at Loki. He wasn't sure of how to greet Loki. Just as Loki had experienced, he was now human, so Bartleby had been struck by some extreme guilt as he accepted the fact he had been the one to kill him. Loki stared at him for a second then dove at him, knocking him to the floor.
"Stop it you two!" Serendipity screamed as Bartleby grasp Loki around the neck trying to push him off of him. To the right of the fight though someone cleared their throat softly, but importantly. As soon as that was hear Loki came to a standing position as did Bartleby as they stood at attention to God. She smiled.
"Does this mean you can't talk to us since we're human?" Bartleby asked. She looked up to the sky for a second then answered.
"No, I can talk to you. You may be human, but you're still up here, which means if you were on earth, I wouldn't be able to talk to you, but you're not on earth, so I can talk to you." They nodded as soon as she said this to the two of them.
"I'll be going now." Serendipity said as she bowed to down to God, then left the room. As soon as the door closed God turned back to them.
"So, my little angels. Are you two ready to by judged?"
"It depends." Bartleby said looking at her. She smiled at him.
"And why is that?"
"Well if we're getting sent down to the demons, we're not ready. I don't wanna go down there." Loki nodded in agreement as Bartleby said this.
"Neither do I," he said putting a voice to his nod. God smiled again.
"I don't think you two will have to worry about demons. Now let's go over here, and figure out what to do with you."
