Welcome to Limbo

Chapter Two: A Spirited Beginning.

A/N: Back again…. It's Christmas day…. And here I am writing. I'm sure that is against the law… Anywho…. This scary piece REFUSES to leave me alone…. I can't help that my warped brain is acting up…. Well enjoy. I am also blaming my new found obsession with the Yu-Gi-Oh manga on a few of the trials… I swear YOU MUST READ IT. It kicks the series (which I love by the way) ass!

Dedication: To Henrietta Black and Randomreviewer…. Who kindly reviewed this and gave me the reviews it needed to be continued.

Disclaimer: See first chapter… Although I suppose the title belongs to whoever owns the Casper movies…. Yes I did shamelessly rip it off. LOL!

The Angel and the now confirmed deceased strolled along the corridor. This place strongly reminded Sirius of ones of those shrinks offices he'd been subjected to whilst he was alive. He gave a shudder, they just creeped him out, psychiatrists that is. With their smug all-knowing looks, and creepy ulterior motives, it wasn't any wonder that people refused to visit them. They were like the dentists of the mind bending world.

The sloe headed man shook his head, he was going WAY off track, and he couldn't afford to be distracted. Not when he had heavens version of Attila the Hun next to him, who knew what this twisted old fart had in store for him.

"Ah here we are" said Petey, with a grand sweep of his arm. The grand sweep led Sirius' eyes in the way of a door…. A very old decrepit door, which like most of the things in this place, was falling off apart.

"What's through there?" asked Sirius, slightly apprehensively.

Petey just laughed, "Why your first challenge of course. And of course you first obstacle" There was a manic gleam in his eyes. "Go in and face it is you wish to ascend the to the gates of heaven."

Sirius gulped and walked through the door to…. Nothing?

"Hey what kind of cheap shot is this…. There is nothing here you stupid idiot."

This remark was promptly retaliated on with an almighty crash of thunder, which finally drove through Sirius's thick skull that he shouldn't call anyone up here an idiot!.

"Hello there cousin…" came a cool feminine voice from behind him.

Sirius immediately recognized the voice and spun around looking somewhat confused. "Bella…. But you're not dead….?"

Bella's eyebrow shot up into her disastrous hair "Oh…. Right…. Toodles"

And here upon realising her mistake the author made 'The Lestrange bitch' disappear, much to the cheers of many fans…. And instead in front of our dark haired hero, materialised another person, another very familiar looking person. (Well to Sirius anyway).

"Hello brother."

Sirius' jaw dropped open, this was way to unfair even for Petey.

"Ah now that's more like it" smirked the deranged Angel from outside the room.

"Regulus…. What the fuck are you doing here!"

The ghostly image of Sirius's brother smiled sardonically. "What do you think dear brother? I'm here to administer your first challenge."

Sirius gave the spirit a funny look "And that would be?"

Regulus looked confused for a minute "Um…. I'll get back to you on that one" he then quickly pulled out what appeared to be a script and began perusing it.

"Okay done the meeting of evil brother" he muttered as Sirius gave an outraged cry of 'HEY!'

"Set down that I'm challenging him, check…. Ah here we are laugh manically and then kick his ass in the challenge… okay!"

"MWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Sirius you shall never see the bliss of Heaven!"

"You still haven't explained what we are doing!"

Here his inept and rather stupid brother did an anime fall and quickly clambered to his feet. Then striking a dramatic pose he announced. "I challenge you to a game of chess!"

This time it was Sirius's turn to do the anime fall and gaped at his brother "please tell me you are joking!"

"Nope!"

"But you suck at chess!"

"Yup!"

"Then why the hell did you pick the one game you are totally crap at?"

"I dunno?" Replied the smaller man " It's what the little voice in my head told me to play"

This statement was met with complete silence, after a few seconds tumbleweed with angle wings rolled past.

"I'm going to pretend I didn't hear that Regulus." Said Sirius looking a little worried.

His brother just shrugged and produced a chess board from a place not even the author wishes to know about.

"So let's get this show on the road, dear brother!"

And so they played…. And played…. And played some more…. Until finally…

"Can't we make it best of 37?" Whined an utterly defeated Regulus.

"For the love of Merlin NO! I beat you already… so would the random freaky midget angel who stuck me in here please let me out now!"

This was again met with silence, followed by a faint growling.

"But brother…"

"Listen Regulus… You played well, but I beat you…. So that's, that. You have to face it."

All of a sudden the spirit of Regulus disappeared and the door at the other end of the room opened. For a moment the older Black looked confused, but then stood up and made his way through the open doorway. Outside Petey was waiting for him.

"Congratulations you passed the first test… humbleness in victory…"

Sirius just glared "That was the biggest crock of crap test ever!"

Petey gave a sharp kick to Sirius's shin, causing to cry out in pain "Do not mock my tests!"

Sirius hobbled along beside him shrugging "Yeah, yeah whatever…. I'm sure knowing you the worst is still to come!"
