And After That the Judgement Natalie Vellacott

Annie realises that she is lying face down on the ground. As she takes a quick glance around, all she can see is a dazzlingly bright light. There is something dreadful and brilliant about the light that makes Annie afraid to look directly at it. Where is she? The last thing she can remember is that she had been lying in a hospital bed. That's right, it was a routine operation to remove a cyst. Her family had come to visit her before she had been put to sleep. Am I still being operated on? Is this what it's meant to be like? Annie isn't sure and she feels uneasy. A loud voice sounds, "Rise up Annie Yale. We have business to do."Annie puts her hands over her ears. She can't stand the awesomeness of the voice. It's almost painful. Just a strange dream probably caused by the hospital drugs. Nothing to worry about. I wish it would end, though. It's pretty realistic."It's not a dream Annie, something went wrong during the operation." The voice again, pure, perfect and awesome."How can that be? I'm still young and have a lot of time left. It was a routine operation. That's what they said." Annie starts to panic as she realises what the voice is telling her. I'm dead?!
