In hell

After a few moments of walking, neither Kaki nor the old man said a word, it was silent except for the cries of pain that came from almost all the houses, it was obvious that they were torturing people there.

And a soft, bewitching voice of a woman was heard, she seemed to be making announcements and came from the sky

"Nathan O'malley from Holland joined the party by jumping onto a train rails after his only son he got with his deceased wife decided to be gay! House 473, he's yours! Enjoy!"

"Karen McCarthy from Montgomery joined the party after being racially mean to a group of black guys thinking that her status of white women will protect her! R.I.P! House 257, you're welcome!"

"Freddy Duchamp from Paris joined the party! After he got told that he was adopted he then violated all the member of his adoptive family, his dad, mom, sisters, brother, granny, her dog and when he tried to run away, he tripped on a stone, fell and smashed his head...damn! This one surprises me! Well...he surely has a worse heel than Achille's ! House 536! You'll thank me later!"

That's what the voice said

"This place is horrible!"

Said Kaki while continuing to look around him

"Yes isn't it?"

Said the old man smiling, turning his face towards the young man, strangely amused by Kaki's remark.

"Well yes"

Replied Kaki a little confused by the latter's reaction

But the old man suddenly stopped at a sort of subway entrance, it probably leads to an underground area, but the small problem is that the door was somehow made with boiling lava, and that Kaki felt it because of the warmth that greeted him when he approached

"Come on!"

Said the old man as he crossed the 3 meters tall lava gate as if it wasn't lava

"What the heeeeeellllll!!!"

Kaki exclaimed as he saw an old man crossing a lava door

And before he even had time to understand how, the old man was already pointing his head out of the lava, leaving the rest of his body inside.

"Are you planning to grow old in front of the door before you decide to come back?"

Said the old man looking at Kaki

"YOU ARE MENTALLY ILL! This door is made of lava and you want ME to walk through it?

He said, pointing his finger at himself.

"Oh thank you! Of course! Don't be shy, come on"

Replied the latter again, smiling with a surprised look as he retracted his head

Kaki literally surprised by the old man's reaction decided to enter

'Maybe it doesn't hurt'

he said to himself as he walked through the door

"Ouuuch! Damn it burns, it's horrible!"

Kaki shouted in pain

"Yeah I know"

Said the old man still smiling as he turned and walked towards a door at the end of the corridor where he appeared.

'What's wrong with him, it's like he's amused whenever I say something bad to him! Maybe here when you say something to someone, they hear the opposite, otherwise it's the first i see someone say thanks while smiling after being called 'mentally ill' '

Kaki said to himself as he followed the old man who became strange in his eyes every time he spoke to him.

And contrary to what Kaki thought, the door was indeed a portal, and not a subway entrance, it took them to a corridor with about 15 meters which led to a wooden door this time.

The old man opened the door

"Welcome to your new home!"

He said as he walked towards the left of the room where he had a desk and two chairs on both sides of the desk and sat down on one of them, the one with his back to the wall.

The room is quite large, it is rectangular and at least 30 square meters in surface area, divided into three, in the middle, where the old man was sitting, with armchairs, just like a living room on earth just that it does not there was no television

To the right, there was the kitchen and a dining table, logically.

And to the left of the room, there were instruments of torture, different kinds, which seemed to come from the medieval times of planet earth.

'Either this guy is a collector of medieval period objects, or he's a sick fucking psychopath!'

Kaki said to himself, completely shocked by what he found before his eyes.

'What are those damn spikes stuck in the chairs? Don't tell me the chair he's sitting on has them too!'

He remarked with wide eyes.

"Hey young man! Come over here so I can give you answers to some questions you're probably asking yourself, sit down here"

Said the old man, pointing at the chair in front of him.

"What? Oh hell no! I mean, as you said, I'm 'young' so I'm just gonna stand up"

He said approaching the table to stop, knowing very well why he didn't want to sit down.

"Okay what's your name again?"

"Ka..Kaki"

"Okay, you're in hell."

Said the old man easily while looking at Kaki.
