Mort awoke. He opened his eyes slowly. His head was throbbing. He looked around, but couldn't see anything. Wherever he was, it was very hot. In fact it was boiling. His body was covered in sweat. He looked down at himself. His body was the only thing he could see. And he was naked.
Where was he? He stood up and stumbled around blindly in the dark.
"Where am I!" He yelled. His voice made a loud echo. But there was no reply.
He continued to walk, not knowing anything about where he was going or even where he was.
"Hello?" He yelled into the nothingness. Of course there was no reply.
He walked for what seemed like hours. Finally, in the distance he could swear that he spotted something. It was a reddish orange color, and it was moving vibrantly.
He walked towards it, the thing getting bigger as he got closer to it.
At last, he stood right in front of it. He looked it up and down.
Fire. It was a large fire, burning brightly in the darkness.
"Just great! Like it's not hot enough here already!" He yelled.
All of a sudden, he heard a noise in the distance. It sounded like people calling for help. He walked away from the fire and headed in the direction of the sound.
He noticed something a little way ahead of him. It looked like people.
He continued toward them. As he approached he saw that it was, in fact, a group of people. Familiar people too, actually. Naked familiar people.
"Mort!" Amy yelled, jumped into his arms and hugged him.
Ted cleared his throat, "Uh.. Amy?" Ted said, and gave her a sharp look.
"Oh, right," Amy said, and broke away from Mort.
Juliet was there too, she did not say anything though. She simply stared at Mort coldly.
"Damn this heat, eh?" Mort said, "It's like Hell."
The group fell silent and looked at Mort.
Amy finally spoke up, "Mort. Do you know where you are?" She asked.
"I was just about to ask that," Mort said.
"You ARE in Hell, Mort," Amy said.
Mort's expression fell.
"Ted and I are adulterers. Juliet and you are murderers and we are in Hell," Amy said.
Mort tried to comprehend this bit of information, but found it hard to do so.
Amy continued, "You are in Hell. Forever."
