“The world of Gods is cruel and unimaginable. Those who call themselves Gods are only helping us in benefit of themselves. Once you reject their lies and throw away your beliefs will you be able to achieve the true potential of your minds and bodies..” 

Is what was told to me and many others who were lied and tricked into believing that this place was better than being with our families. We had no idea we were going to go through, and that we were going to be forced out of our lives so suddenly. I never wanted to leave them, I promised that I would never. 

Our God appeared in our world and gave us the message that we would have to fight other worlds. Those other worlds had different Gods but they were all destined to fight, and we were involved because we were their “creation”. Essentially their property and I was not happy with that. I hated that I was in control of, and that I was not deemed worthy of their attention or power.

But, I should’ve been happy just living such a simple and nice life with a wife and kid. But, I wanted that power and the mysterious person was going to give me it. I would’ve been able to protect them from the things that happened. I shouldn’t have been greedy, I should’ve been happy..

No! That’s wrong. It’s all the Gods faults, their greed and lust for ultimate power over the others caused this. The accident would’ve never happened if I just had the power to destroy those gods and their stupid game! That damned accident..

I was driving home after I had gotten the message about the Gods, and then my wife called me. I picked up the phone and tried to hang up after telling her I was driving, but she interrupted me almost as I was about to speak to tell her,

“Honey! Quickly, come home! There’s monsters outside! I think they’re coming closer to the house!”.

So many thoughts rushed through my mind at that moment but I knew I couldn’t do anything. I was just weak, and so I said,

“Hurry! Quickly to the bathroom! Take Lizzy with you, hide in the bathtub! Do not hang up on me!”.

She locked the doors, closed the windows, grabbed our daughter, and hid in the bathtub. Both of the women that I loved dearly soon were just clogs in the drain and blood on the wall. The savages that took my beloved ones wrote with their suffering. 

The writing with their blood said,

“The Grandmasters of The Gate of Gehenna greet you with a smile..”

After I read the message a gate opened below me and dropped me into a world so warm but cold and so beautiful yet ugly that the word Hell could not describe it. And like the message said, I was greeted by these three giants who were taller than the building I lived in, and they were smiling. They had the widest grin you could imagine and the look in their eyes was filled with pleasure.

The amount of pleasure they had I was filled with anger and so much regret that it was double whatever they were feeling. And so I spoke,

“Why! Why must all of you take what we enjoy the most! We were all living in peace and had lives we loved.. Why did you have to interrupt our lives”,

Once those words left my mouth they stopped smiling,

“What! Do you not find my suffering enjoyable anymore!?”

The Middle One spoke first,

“We do not find your words humorous, Mortal. You should rethink your mindset.”

And then I did the worst thing anyone could do in Gehenna.

“You should rethink! You selfish Gods! Only thinking of your selfish benefits!”

The Giant’s faces turned into a face of anger and the one on the right spoke,

“You dare to call us Gods! We are your savior! We are here to give you power!”

And then the Middle One spoke again,

“Enough of this! Send him to Be'er Shachat!”

As soon as he said this I could no longer see the gods and everything was dark. My eyes felt like they were burning. The pain was constant, it wasn't stopping and so I clawed at my eyes but they weren’t even hot. But I kept clawing at them. It wasn't stopping, the pain was constant and worsening. But for some reason I could see one thing in the dark and within my blurry and bloody vision. It was a blue screen with the words,

“Vitality +1 and Endurance + 1”.

I have no idea what this means. It just keeps popping up whenever I claw at my eyes. And recently the pain has spread to my face and it’s ever worsening. I don’t know how much longer I can withstand this pain. I just want this all to end.. I just want to be with my wife and child. I want to be with my family.. And so I began clawing at my throat. I wanted this to end and I finally got it. At last after this short torture I get to be with them..

In the darkness I see a light.. I feel all the pain go away and all the darkness starts going away. I see my child and my wife, my happiness is just an arms reach away. But instead of my eternal happiness with those who I love is just a blue screen appearing in the darkness with the words.

“Level Up! +1 To All Stats!”
