'Life is the begining,

Death is not the end '

In the modern era the biggest fear of humanity is the unknown virus that kills millions of people. Shindo age 27 was struggling in the hospital bed to survive. Doctors around him are doing everything they can to make sure he's alive. They are giving him electric shocks yet his heart is failing. The beep slowly fades as shindo watches the doctors worried, tired , sad , despaired with his blurry eyes, his eyes becomes to fade and finally he closed his eye in a total darkness.

The news was soon spread outside the operation threatre, his friends and his families totally break down and started crying. Shindo was a good friend, a good son, a good student, a good athlete, an intelligent person who helped everyone in need. He was almost perfect in his life, he had the best grades in his school life, he was the best gymnast and was preparing for the national level competition but he was caught by an unknown virus before he could catch his dreams.

In the pitch black darkness Shindo is asking himself: What did I do wrong? Why me? Why? Why why why why why why why?Suddenly he hears a soft voice in the dark:Shindo wake up, time to go.

Shindo asks himself: Wait what? Go ? Go where ?

The voice from the dark slowly gets bigger and bigger and finally it shouts: SSSHHindooo

Shindo opens his eyes to see a guy who looks exactly like him but with a single horn in his forehead. He's shocked looking at him and asks: Who are you ? Why do you look like me ? Where am I ? Why am I alive ?

The lookalike replies: It's because I am a part of you and you are not the only one who died, with your death my duty is also coming to the end. Now I just have a few task remaining and I'll fade away from the eternity.

Shindo replies: So who does the judgement ?

Shadow replies: Let's talk while walking we have a long way to go, and the judgement is done my the king of this neutral place, King Yama.

They both started walking through a tunnel which is lighted up by flame torch and looking at the front, there's no one or nothing except the road and the torch on the walls till several kilometers ahead.

On the way Shindo asks shadow: I am curious, how many good deeds and bad deeds have I done ?

Shadow replies : That I can't reveal you, the first person I'll be revealing that to is the King Yama and you can ask him about your deeds.

Shindo: Okay, so how long do we have to walk.

Shadow : Almost there.
