Accident

"Today I'm outside my office waiting to go home."

"Hmm,I think I'll go buy something before I go home." Sierra said to herself.

"I was on the same old road,walking home like I always do.

"Both of my parents died on early death.I have no siblings, and I have no significant other either.

"I lived every day by myself, freely on my own.

"Come to think of it,there's that new coffee shop that just opened up one street over." Sierra said to herself.

"The project I was working on at my job had settled down for the time being.

"So I figured I'd treat myself to a nice cup of coffee to drink on the way back home.

"I deviated from my usual path home and began to head for the coffee shop when...something zipped past me right before my eyes.It was a small dog.

"The puppy was dashing straight for a busy road.

"Stop!" Sierra said out loud.

"My body reacted before I even realized it.I reached out and shoved the puppy off the road and onto the sidewalk.

"Having fallen down onto the street because of the momentum I put into the shove,I saw a car zooming towards me.

"It's so dark...

"Odds are the puppy is safe.

"It had landed on the sidewalk and given me this terrified look.Poor thing.It was so cute.

"So...dark...

"Did I just die?

"Well,if I did I don't really have any regrets,I guess.

"I mean,I did save that puppy.

"Aahh,l wanted to try that coffee though.

"There was that one fantasy novel I was in the middle of reading too...

"-ven't. done...anything." A strangers voice.

"I haven't done...anything wrong.

"What's wrong?" Sierra said to the stranger.

"Help...please..." A strangers voice.

"Sure, I'll help you." Sierra said to the stranger.

"I'm dead after all! Leave it to me,I'll come save the day!"

"...Something's cold." Sierra said

"When I came to my senses,I realized most of my body was touching a very hard,cold and bumpy surface.

"I opened my eyes slowly to find out that it was a stone floor.

"I looked around me.It was a place I was completely unfamiliar with.I presumed it to be a cave.

"I was just in town,wasn't I?If I got ran over by a car and died,then this must be the afterlife." Sierra said to herself.

"Hey,who are you?Where'd you came from?" A strangers voice.

"Suddenly, an animal that looked like a tiny dog with bird wings appeared before me,flying above in the air.

"Most shocking of all,it could speak.

"Um,hello there,mister...bird?Dog?" Sierra said to the stranger.

"Hey now,who are you calling a dog?!" A strangers voice.

"Are you an animal from the afterlife? Like...are you dead?" Sierra said to the stranger.

"Dead?! Ha! No,no,no.You however are dead wrong,my friend!" A strangers voice.

"The strange creature tumbled about,spinning playfully in the air.

"First of all,I'm no animal! I'm a great beast, known as none other than—" A strangers voice.

"The flying"beast"had been yipping away,when suddenly he just...stopped. It was almost as if his batteries ran out.

"Once he suddenly came to,he was livid. I thought he might even try to bite me.

"You! You took my power!" The stranger said

"Your"power"? What are you talking about?" Sierra said to the stranger.

"Don't play dumb! You're already suspicious as it is with those strange clothes you're wearing!" The stranger said.

"Strange? These clothes are totally normal." Sierra said to the stranger.

"Today,I was wearing something one would usually wear to the office.Nothing out of the ordinary.

"Wait! Did you..." The stranger said.

"He circled me a few times,coming to a stop right in front of me.

"...Did you came from another world?" The stranger said.

"Another world...?" Sierra said with confusion.

"What does he mean...?

"Yes,it's true that where I came from there are no animals that can talk or dogs that have wings.

"But I'm pretty sure I died after getting run over by a car after saving that dog.
