Death's True Nature

== Chapter One ==
I woke up, confused. Where...where was I? I sat up a little straighter, looking around. It looked like a doctor's office waiting room, but it was much quieter. People around me were sitting in chairs, waiting there as well. I hadn't had a doctor's appointment I had forgotten about, had I? My back pain was gone...had I already been to a doctor's appointment? That would have been odd, because I didn't remember even booking an appointment, let alone getting here or having it. 
A young woman came out from behind a door, holding a clipboard. She was dressed in a black turtleneck and nice, crisp jeans, with black high heels. She was such a beautiful young lady, she could have been an actor. She looked up, scanning the room with her eyes, "Maggie Carter?" She called.
That was my name....huh..
I smiled at her despite my confusion, "That's me, dear," I went to take my purse, but it wasn't there, I must have left it at home...again. I stood up and walked over to the young woman, a little slow. But, that was bound to happen when you were my age.
She said nothing more to me, which was a little rude, but I said nothing. I followed her through a few corridors and to a large set of doors; they were rather pretty. 
Now the young woman spoke, "Do not speak unless spoken to. Be extremely polite. Our Lord awaits you."
This made me feel uneasy, I disliked those who used the Lord's name in vain. Especially to describe someone else...not in this day and age, there were no Lords except our Lord in heaven. But...perhaps I was...no, no, that was silly. I couldn't be in heaven, that would mean I had to have died. Surely I would have remembered that, so this was only someone being vain.
