"I refuse it!"
"I refuse it," he mocked with a laugh. "You can't. And no amount of prayer, or pleading, or good deeds can alter your fate. The die is cast, as they say. What's done cannot be undone. However, you still have choices. Yes, choices, Mr. Henry. When you enter Hell it can either be as a hero to a hero's welcome or as a leper who is destined, forever, to absorb the full wrath of all those who rule there."
"What kind of a choice is that?"
"The only one left you."

Thank you; and a few notes.
First, thank you for your comments, and for reading the story. It’s good to know someone other than myself is enjoying it.
Lonely: I’ve never read the King novel. I think that last one I read of his was Christine or The Stand (whichever one was the more recent chronologically). As for Beetlesmith, I’ve been planning this story arc since before chapter 6. Obviously, a lot of writing’s gone on between now and then, and probably much of it could have been condensed (something King should also do with his new material). What can I say, Beetlesmith has become a stream of conscience thing for me.
sorin: I’m more than flattered. High praise from you, indeed. Thank you; although, many on this board would have an opposite opinion of my writing. I have 2 more chapters completed. The next one will also be short like this one, but the following, and those subsequent, will be much, much longer. I figure 4 or 5 more chapters after that will finish the tale, but the remaining ones are in various states of incompleteness, so be forewarned, they will be posted at irregular intervals.more...
Yes!
...my prayers were heard! I was waiting for a long time for the story to continue. One of the best storylines I have seen here (or elsewhere) and even though the erotic in itself is amazing, the overall story keeps you on your toes with wonder to what might come next. Thank you, keep it coming!more...
Good to read from you again
This after life scenario reminds me of "Revival" by Stephen King.
Anyway, I must admit that after a prolonged absence such a "revelation" seems almost like a way to get a fresh start without abandoning the story altogether.
Hope I'm wrong, after all it's been a while since I read the last chapter before that.more...
