Mel's Afterlife 2

It's been… puuuhhh… I dunno, a REALLY long time I think, since I started this last test. The numbers started to blend a long time ago, so I'm doing any test after 8… maybe? I guess I'm a bit loose at the moment, my mind is slowing down. What's right in front of me?

Well, I see a big colourful box in front of me, wait, no it's beside me. There's also some kind of big red circle on the ceiling somewhere forwards from me. The dotted blue snake on the floor is snaking it's way towards the flat running man silhouette. The man sounds angry though, but I understand why, I wouldn't like getting cut in half whenever somebody touches a red circle, especially if it's me.

Even so though he keeps yelling at me, "Turn this snake orange you disaster!" I find it rather rude, but I don't say anything. I just walk through the box and over to the trampoline. It's the greatest trampoline in the world and it's a shame I don't spend more time on it. I jump on and go as high as the night sky can allow me. Which is admittedly not VERY high, just enough to go over the moon.

It seems as though someone traded my awesome trampoline for a bouncy castle though since I went the wrong way. Wait… Oh no… This can't be right! I'm not supposed to fly into the cave behind the waterfall. I'm SUPPOSED to sore across the ocean and find another red circle. It's fun over there, it's my own little island where physical pain means nothing, I did learn not to touch the water though. I'll miss Mambo #5, he was my favourite hand noodle. And I can't just replace it using my other hand; I don't even HAVE another hand, just my carpenter cannon. Who knew I was a door making cyborg? I'm really good too, I can make doors anywhere, even on the roof!

I'm glad my cyborg parts didn't explode as I went through the waterfall, water and doors don't mix you know. But it's weird, I'm not soaring towards a tropical paradise, I'm landing back at home, well, PART of home anyway, the not destroyed part of town that the Combine loved eating at, it's definitely a change from the giant chess board I was navigating through just a moment ago. Those silly Combine, they have no table manners, leaving cans everywhere, the even built a monument out of them, a shrine if you will, to wet paint.

I don't understand it myself, but hey, I'm not one to judge, I work making going from shop to shop in the Lobella Rubble mall selling blue doors. I begin to look over the giant wall covered in a million different graffiti's when I see someone else. "that's strange," I think to myself as I see it. It takes me be surprise, but I then immediately recognize it as a white Combine, complete with the big red eye, wait, no his eye is brunette. And he seems to be wearing a BadassLongcoat. He also has a ratt's tail, but it's surprisingly not out of place.

"Parl vu Anglais?" The Combine asks me.
"Sorry, I don't speak alien," I say back, But that doesn't stop him from picking me up and bringing me outside my front door.
"Daddy's got you." He says, in human this time, I can't really say I'm into foreplay, but I guess if the shoe fits, plus I didn't know Combine found me attractive, that changes a couple things. I'm more interested than disgusted, so I let him take me away to his magical castle in the sky.

It takes a while so I drift off to sleep. I longingly await a kiss from my white-coated prince.
