I Don't...

I wake up to a light. Am I dead? Tash's Uncle Denny who was like a second father to her stood next to me, Dylan a bombsquad Jedi who exploaded in a shooting to save my life.
"I must be dreaming." I whispered.
"Damn right you are." Denny said.
"Denny?" I questioned. I turned my head. "Dylan?" I nodded to myself. "Oh yeah I must be dreaming!"

This all took place in the temple.
"Where am I?" I asked for the fourth time.
Denny stopped me against the wall. "Meredith! You are stuck in between life and death! You could die! You have to get out of here on your own!" He shouted.
I sat kriss-cross on the floor. "Listen. I fought, and I fought hard. But, than I thought, 'what's really the point?' You don't understand. This isn't my responsibility. You have to he-
Denny interupted me. "BUT YOU GAVE UP! You're choosing not to get out of here." He shouted.
I got up. "I don't want to!" I growled. I walked down the hall.
A blonde girl walked around confused.
"Bonnie?" I said with a gasp.
Bonnie was a teenage girl who I tried to save on a mission who died stuck on a pole.
"Meredith! You are here for your own good. If you don't try to get out-
Denny than interrupted Dylan.
"YOU'LL CHANGE EVERYONE IN YOUR LIFE! What about Tash? You are one of her best friends. What about George? He cares about you more than you can imagine. What about Christina? She is your best friend. And Derek? Derek beleives in passion, romance and true love! And if you die? You are changing who he is..." Denny spat.

I saw my mother Ellis. "Mom?" I shouted.
She circled around me with an angry look. "You shouldn't be here!" She said.
I shook my head in desbelief. "Neither should you..."
I began walking away as she wrapped her arms around me.
"You are anything but ordinary." She whispered. That was exactly what I needed. We got in the biggest fight a few weeks ago.

I sat back in the corner.
"I'm trying I swear I am going to focus." I said in a serious tone.
Suddenly the temple's old dog, Doc ran up to me barking.
"Doc!" I said beginning to pet him. "Who's a good boy who's a good boy you are!" I said in a babyish behavior.
"Meredith you almost died today!" Dylan told me.
I still pet Doc ignoring the two men. "Yeah that sucked." I said.

As I sat with Denny talking about what happened since his death he paused for a moment as a smile was being planted on his face.
"What is it?" I asked confused.
"Tash." He whispered.
"You can see her?" I asked.
He shook his head. "No. But, sometimes I feel like I'm there next to her, brushing against her skin. It's like I can feel her with me. Yet... she can't feel me." He whispered. "I think you're ready now Meredith."
I nodded to him getting up off the floor.

I began walking fast down the hall. There was a white light at the entrance. I stepped right into it as my world whited out.
