Chapter 10 - Entering DD

A black void, same place before entering the Death Service. There is a girl, small, she doesn't seem real, it seems like she is a lost soul, so light blue, almost white, and pure. When she moves slightly you can see the smoke move around her vanishing to thin air. Her eyes, are the same color as her. She walks closer, and taps, nothing can be felt, but a roller coaster of emotions--Sadness, hope and a broken girl. 

"Am i free?" The tiny soft voice asks. Yael crouches to her face level. "What's your name, kid?" The girl tilted her head "I'm not a kid. My name is celia.." 

Isn't this a game? Why is there a lost soul from 𝅈 𝅉𝅈 𝅉?

She grabs him by the arm and cries. "Save me. I want to see something, it's been years..." 

Yael stumbled back, breaking her grip. The void swam around him. "Celia…" he breathed, the name tasting strange. "How are you here? This is a game. A prison. It's not… it's not real." 

Celia paused, looking at her hands. "I am...dead?" 

NEW_MISSION; ADOPT_CELIA

Yael came closer to Celia and held a hand, not in pity but on offer. "No, you won't leave without me. I'll make sure you see.." He realizes she'll never see reality, so he tells a lie wrapped in a hope. "The outside."
