“As I drifted, I dreamed. Where I floated, under the dark water, I heard the happiest sound on my mind could conjure up — as beautiful, as uplifting, as it was ghastly. It was another snarl; a deeper wider roar that rang with fury. I was brought back, almost to the surface, by a sharp pain slashing my upraised hand, but I couldn’t find my way back far enough to open my eyes. And then I knew I was dead. Because, through the heavy water, I heard the sound of an angel calling my name, calling me to the only heaven I wanted.”
