Evanescent: soon passing out of sight, memory, or existence; quickly fading or disappearing

The last memory Eustass Kid had was that of a huge battle. He couldn't remember much from it other than his crew had gone up against a Yonko. There was bloodshed and many casualties but that was all he could remember. He sat up and rubbed his head, looking around and trying to figure out where he was. It was dark and he couldn't make out any shapes. He sat up and felt his way around the room. He saw a faint light above him and before he knew what was happening, he was being pulled towards it. He felt the breath being sucked from his lungs and he was blinded.

When his senses returned, he was in a brightly lit room surrounded by a room full of white and black. The walls were white, the chairs were black, and there were two doors, one white and one black. Kid tried to move but he was stuck in his chair. It was like he was tied down but there were no ropes.

"Hey!" He yelled. "Someone get me the fuck out of here!" He fought against the invisible restraints to no avail.
"Hello Eustass," a soft female voice called out from behind him.

"We have been expecting you for a long time," said a deeper male voice.

"What the fuck are you talking about?" Kid said, still struggling. He felt a light touch on his shoulder and he felt the restraints fall away.
"Please stay calm. We will explain everything," the female said as she stepped into his view. She was in a white robe with a hood covering her face.
"Let me just take him. He belongs to us anyway," said the second voice, stepping into his view. He was in a black robe and his face was also covered with his hood.
"Just tell me what the hell is going on. Where the fuck is my crew?" Kid demanded.

The woman removed her hood and gave him a blinding smile. She was inhumanly beautiful. She just radiated beauty. It nearly made Kid sick. Sure he liked women but there was just something about her that seemed off. Her hair was straight and blonde, her lips were full and red, she had no makeup. She just seemed too perfect for Kid's taste. The man removed his hood and the first thing that Kid noticed was his red horns. He had a cruel smile that received razor sharp teeth. His face was scarred and marked up and he had messy black hair. He was the exact opposite of the woman.

"This is going to come as a shock to you," the woman started.
"You're dead," the man finished, not an ounce of sympathy in his voice.
"No, that's not possible!" Kid yelled, ready to lash out at man.
"Now please, stay calm, we will explain it all," the woman said.
"What's to explain? He's dead and he belongs in Hell," the man said as he pulled a sword out of his robe.

"No, he deserves a chance. Everyone gets a chance," the woman lightly reprimanded, glaring at the man. "Now Eustass, please take a seat. This is going to be a shock and a lot to take in. You have actually been two years since your death. You died in a battle. Many lost their lives. Their souls have since passed on but yours, yours has stayed rooted to this world. Normally a soul would pass into Heaven or Hell. Something has kept yours here. While everyone else has forgotten you, one person is holding on and keeping you in purgatory. We have waited for him to forget you so one of us could claim you soul but the time limit has passed. Now we must judge your soul." The woman explained.

Kid's mind was reeling. He was dead, he had been dead, he wasn't the Pirate King, who the fuck was thinking of him? He felt anger and confusion at the same time. He wanted to hit something but the only thing in the room was the two who would take him to Heaven or Hell.

"Okay then, who is keeping me here?" Kid finally asked.

Instead of getting an answer, the man in the black robe just clasped him on the shoulder and the scene around them changed. They were in a dark room but Kid could tell they weren't alone. There was someone else in the room. Kid silently walked to the person. He had his back to them and a single candle was lit on a desk. He was holding a piece of paper and as Kid got closer, he could make out more details.

The man had long blonde hair, he was in a ripped blue shirt, and a blue mask was on the desk next to him. Kid instantly knew who it was. His first mate and best friend, Killer. He was holding Kid's wanted poster. He let out a sigh as Kid stood next to him.

"It's time. Everyone else is gone. I can't hold on forever," Killer breathed out.

"You're the only one left?" Kid asked but Killer never answered.
"He can't hear you," the cloaked man said with a bored tone to his voice.

"I'm sorry captain. I should have been there sooner. It's been two years though. It's time to let go and move on." Killer said to the poster.

He let out one last sigh before he held the poster over the candle and watched it catch fire. Then he dropped the burning paper on the desk and knocked the candle over, letting everything on the desk catch fire. Eustass tried to reach out and pull Killer away but the robed man just grabbed him and teleported them away. Instead of going back to the white and black room, they ended up floating above a boat, Kid's ship to be exact. He was forced to watch not only his ship go up in flames but also know that his best friend was in there too. He tried to fight but the man only glared at him and held him in place. Once the ship sank, then they went back to the room.

Kid collapsed on the floor, defeated. He hadn't even been devastated when he found out that he was dead. His best friend had kept his memory alive for all this time and now he was gone.

"Just fucking finish it," Kid whispered.

"Okay," the man said.

"Wait just a second," the woman stopped him.
"No you know his history. He belongs in Hell," Kid could feel the tip of the sword on the back of his neck but he didn't care.

He braced for what was to come. However, nothing ever happened. When Kid looked up he saw the man and the woman and one other person.

"Hello Captain," Killer smiled under mop of blonde hair.
"Killer?" Eustass said in shock.
"It's time to go Kid," Killer held out his hand his smile widened.
