Valkyrie woke to a rattling noise just a bit to her left. She didn't know where she was or how she gotten here. She opened her eyes but shut them quickly again there was a light just above her head and it was shining right down on top of her. Fighting back the patterns that were begining to show behind her eyelids she opened them again slightly she was in a room a familiar room so familiar she thought it was a dream if not for the rattling noise to her left . She turned her head and what she saw made her mouth hang open. Her dead Uncle Gordon Edgley standing at his kitchen sinks scrubbing a way at a bunch of dishes.

"Gordon is that you?" she asked the dead figure of her uncle. It turned to look at her smiling

"Why yes Steph and how's me old girl doing ha not getting into any trouble I hope, it's been a long time since I've seen you!"

"It has only been three months" Valkyrie said

"Oh really hmm short term memory loss ahh well no matter" replied her uncle

There was something about this whole situation that made Valkyrie feel strange. She was in her dead uncle's kitchen talking to him, but he had been dead for at least over three years how could this be possible. It couldn't be the echo Gordon for she was the only one who knew about him. She ventured to ask her uncle what she was doing here but the reply she got didn't make her feel any better.

"You're dead" her uncle said turning to look at her again "saw the whole thing you died on the beach surrounded b y divers, they had pulled you out of the sea. Which reminds me what the bloody hell where you doing in there in the first place?"

"Well whatever I was doing in there in the first place I succeeded" mumbled Valkyrie looking over to the clock on the wall.

"WHAT!!! You were trying to kill yourself? Why Steph what's wrong?"

She didn't want to tell her uncle the real reasons why she had killed herself for. Reasons like that her parents would die if she stayed alive, that her heat had just been torn apart and that she couldn't handle the stress of a vampire having a crush on her or that her new sibling would come into a world that wouldn't last very long and she would barley know her new sibling because she spent like no time with her parents any more. But instead she came up with the answer of

"There was a murderous lunatic chasing after me who was going to kill me so I just decided I would do him a favour and spare him from getting his hands dirty." Her uncle stared at her for a few moments blankly then suddenly he snapped back to life

"Well welcome to heaven.... it's not that bad up here I mean there isn't really anything to do and the only channel here is earth channel see. "He switched the TV that was sitting on the bench on a aerial view of haggard came on

"You can pick places you'd like to go to and zoom in on a person that's how I knew you had died "her uncle said. He slid the remote across the bench over to Valkyrie. She picked it. Who did she want to see her parents, Fletcher, Calean, and Tanith. She pressed the zoom button until she was far in enough to read the street signs and started directing herself towards her house.

"There's an easier way you know" her uncle said moving over and pressing a button that said search. He typed in Melissa Edgley and instantly up came the image of Valkyrie's mother hanging the washing. Valkyrie took the remote back and watched silently as her mother hung out the clothes then went back inside the house. To cook dinner probably. She pressed the search button and typed in Desmond Edgley the image of her dad slumped over his desk at work came up on the screen she watched as he r got together his papers and left totally unaware that his daughter no longer lived in his world anymore. She wonder what her parents would think when the police come to the door to tell them their daughter Stephanie edgily is dead because she had drowned on the beach and then her reflection would get home and there would be all this chaos. She stop think about that and pressed the search button again but this time she typed in Fletcher's name an image of a slumped figure came up the figure was sitting in some alley hunched over as though it had no purpose. Valkyrie's heart lurched. How could she have done that to him she was totally mucked up inside but she would never again be able to get back with him because she was dead.

"Gordon you don't mind if I turn on the one in the lounge room and play around with it do you?"

"No of course not go ahead, oh but Stephanie don't try typing in anyone who's dead okay it ah stuffs up the whole system."

There was a pause in her uncle's sentence. A pause that Valkyrie had come to know as a something you don't need to know pause. There was something about searching up someone who was dead that her uncle wouldn't tell her.

She spent what she thought was a night using the earth channel zooming in on anyone that popped into her head.

At last she became tired. But I shouldn't get tried anymore because I'm not living anymore. She was puzzled she looked at the TV screen surely it wouldn't hurt to look he self up would it?

She pressed the search button and typed in Stephanie Edgley almost instantly up came a picture of her sitting in a room watching a TV screen she zoomed out and stoped this wasn't her uncle house this wasn't even heaven this was a factory building of some sort in Dublin. She searched up her uncle Gordon Edgley just to make sure she was right and the screen went all fuzzy like there was no reception. This wasn't heaven and that man was not her uncle and she wasn't anything near dead.

well what did you think was it any good review to tell me your ideas

thanks
