"I don't like people touching me," Kenitu said, getting out from her seat and stretching her long, young-again legs before exiting the train.

"Oracle? Like in fairytales and stuff?" Connor asked as he hopped off the train. "Awesome!" -
Jamie followed after Kenitu, careful of not making physical contact now that they knew that they were against it. "What's your favorite color? Do you like green? I love green! When it comes down to my favorite, though, I'd probably say aqua or teal. You look like a beige or bergundy person! Do you like bergundy??" Jamie asked question after question, hopping around merrily as they made their way.
-
Kenitu instantly regretted the decision to talk to this girl. She was much to energetic; and asked to many questions. Although, the Ethiopian had to admit, she was good with aesthetics. "I do, in fact, like burgundy." She said, trailing behind the rest of the group.
-
Emily chuckled as she listened to their conversation. “Guess we’ll wait and see.” Emily replied. A crowd of people got off the train, confused how this would work. Clearly not everyone could fit in that small cottage. Just then, two little boys came out. The boys had pink skin and green hair with bright purple eyes. They wore grey raincoats over t-shirts and brown shorts. The boys were identical twins, so one wore a blue t-shirt saying Laughter and the other one wore a green shirt saying Intelligence. Both of them appeared to be twelve years old, although they were probably much older. “Hello everyone! Come in!” The blue shirted boy cheered. “Don’t worry, there’s room.” The green shirted boy assured everyone. In confusion but feeling slightly assured, the crowd began to enter the small cottage.
-
Matthew just whistled and started to walk out of the train.
-
"Hey Connor!" Evangeline said as everyone started to crowd up and it was difficult getting to see the ones from the same cart as her. "Stick with me," she stated when she found him.
Jamie was ecstatic that Kenitu was actually responding to them. Jamie knew Kenitu's type; cold, a lone wolf, won't talk unless she has to, or wants to. Even knowing this, Jamie would do the talking for them. "I really like your hair! Can I touch it? Wait, no, of course I can't, sorry. What shampoo do you use?" Jamie went on with their onslaught of questions. Almost nothing could get them to stop now. -
Connor tensed up a little and upon hearing Emily's voice, rushed to the source and clung to her. he had never really experience crowds in the open like this.
||
Kenitu, on the other hand, got very anxious. Crowds were a nightmare come rue for her. Thankfully, it wasn't to thick of a crowd and she managed to cling to a wall where she was relatively safe. As soon as the crowd started to form, she ignored Jamie completely. -
As the crowd entered the cottage, the inside appeared to be a very large auditorium to the crowds surprise. “It’s a Tartis!” A couple nerds here and there cheered. “Curiouser and curiouser...” Emily muttered. A teenage girl with a blind fold, the same outfit as the twin boys with a white t-shirt saying Justice, blonde hair, red skin, holding a sword and scale walked around, sorting people alphabetically. “Name?” She asked Emily. “Emily Spencer.” Emily replied. “Stand in row S.” The girl told her before moving to the next person.
-
Jamie couldn't help but Kenitu's uncomfortableness. "It's okay, I'll make sure no one touches you!" They stated, forming a guard pose so that no one would bump into Kenitu. The crowd got ever thinner, though, as they dispersed into the small cabin. "I think it's all clear now, captain," Jamie said playfully, spinning on their heel and facing Kenitu with a salute.
Evangeline patted Connor on the head and lead him into the cabin. She had lost sight of Jamie and the other girl, though. With the awesome power of tallness Evangeline easily cut through the crowd. -
ouch i just realized i said emily and not evangeline sorry))
Kenitu gave Jamie a queer look, and then relaxed slightly. Okay then. This was fine. She gave Jamie a lazy half salute in return. -
Matthew walked to his section, having lost track of everyone else in the crowd.
-
Jamie clapped happily at the returning salute. They looked like a proud parent, it was quite comical, actually.
Evangeline pulled them through the crowd, approaching the blindfolded girl. "Name?" The girl asked simply. "Evangeline Elizabeth Schneider," Evangeline answered with a wink. "Row S," the girl instructed. Evangeline had to wave goodbye to Connor and walked to row s, standing alongside Emily. -
“Huh. We’re both E.S. Perhaps if we had been the same age on Earth we would have been doppelgängers.” Emily chuckled as red skinned children all wearing the same outfit with different t-shirts lined up against the stage from oldest to youngest.
The oldest was an eighteen year old boy with curly dark blue hair, blue eyes, and a purple t-shirt that said Time.
The second was three seventeen year old triplet girls with green eyes and blonde hair that all had blue t-shirts saying Matter, Space, and Light.
The third was Justice, and the forth were the twin boys.
The fifth was a little girl with long, curly blue hair and black eyes with a red t-shirt that said Violence
Finally, a three year old boy with blonde hair and blue eyes with a white t-shirt that said Innocence.
“Justice they aren’t all sorted.” Time muttered. “You try sorting a crowd without being able to see.” Justice replied. “I could sort them.” Violence suggested with an evil grin. “No.” All the children replied before laughter burst into his name sake. “Why do they need to be sorted?” Innocence asked. “Father wanted them to be sorted.” Intelligence answered. “Whatever. They’re sorted enough.” Space sighed. “Is everyone here?” Matter asked. “How am I supposed to know?” Justice asked. “We weren’t asking you.” Space sighed. “I think some are still outside. They must still be sceptical.” Light sighed. “I’m bored.” Violence sighed. “Mom’s late anyways.” Time sighed. “Where is Mom anyways?” Innocence asked. “Don’t tell him. He doesn’t need to know.” Intelligence told Violence.
It was then an old woman with long, curly blonde hair and black eyes wearing a silver slutty dress with a golden sash saying Oracle entered the room, walking down the aisle. “Aw, I was hoping your father would be here to make introductions.” Oracle sighed as she came on the stage. “There was an emergency meeting.” Time explained. “Oh, I see. Well, welcome everyone to the afterlife! Now, since sixty percent of everyone who dies ends up in the medium place, we have a bit of an over population issue. Which is why in order to get into the medium place, you must complete a ten day challenge in order to get in. All those that lose will be sent back to Earth to start new lives. Those who die again in the challenge will become part of it.” Oracle explained. -
(I like all the arguing among the concepts. I call them concepts because I don't know what else to call them.)
Matthew listen to the Oracle as she explained the situation. -
Connor hadn't been sorted, but he stood and listened to the Oracle. He ran over towards Evangeline and Emily, standing between them like he was their kid.

Kenitu had been sorted into the 'T' section, and stood in wait for the next thing to happen. "What kind of challenge?" She asked above the din of people murmuring.
