Riley was walking to hockey practice from school. She was now 16. She now had completely adjusted to life in San Francisco. She had visited her old friends a few times. She had new friends here to.

Riley looked both ways before she crossed the street. Little did she know, a high speed chase was coming around the corner. The driver being chased was drunk. Riley tried ruining to the other side, but she was too slow. The car hit her.


Joy gasped when she saw she was being hit. She tried to stop it, but the control panel wasn't working. The others emotions were brought from what they were doing. "What is going on?" Fear asked. The place was shutting down.

"This has never happened before?" Joy said, having a miniature panic attack. Sadness then remembered something.

"Page 46 of the life and death protocol manual," Sadness said. "It says that the only times the mind shuts down completely is when the host goes into a coma, brain dead, or actually dead."

"Death?" Joy asked. She then zoomed to the control panel. This can't be the end of the line. There is still so much to do. I promised Bing Bong I'd take her to the moon. "No, no, no, no," Joy repeated.

"Joy death is completely out of our control," Sadness said. That's when Fear disappeared. "Also when the host dies, so do the emotions. Which emotions head to the afterlife with the host depends on which afterlife they go to.

Sadness was the next to disappear. Then it was disgust. "Can I finally say that curse word now?" Anger asked, before he vanished. Then Joy looked around headquarter and vanished herself.


Joy opened her eyes into a plain room. She was on a couch. The sentence 'Welcome! Everything is going to be fine' were written in green on the wall in front of her. A woman who looked like Joy but taller came in. "Your Riley's joy, come in," she said. Joy lead her into a office. Joy sat in front of the desk and the lady sat in front of it. "Welcome."

"Thank you," Joy said. "Where is here?"

"The good place," the lady said. "You and Riley are dead and have made it to heaven."
