92. The River [2]

The boat took me away slowly. I saw Zie kept waving even though we were quite far away. Charon sang a happy song although I did not really understand the lyrics at all. I felt so happy to hear it. Slowly a thin mist began to cover the scene around me and Zie was gone behind the mist. 

"Charon," I called him, "What happens if you take me down the river the other way around?" I asked curiously. The direction we were heading was the opposite of the direction of the boat he guided the previous night. 

"You would go to meet Kerberos and you would not go back unless you were reborn or reincarnated," He replied, "Kerberos take good care of that place. He doesn't allow the number of spirits in that place to change." He added further. 

I did not answer when faintly I heard Mickey's voice. I sharpened my eyes to see if he was nearby. White. Everything around me slowly disappeared and the voice became clearer and louder.
