The 6 Gates

Six Centuries ago the last visitor from Earth entered my world. Now itīs your turn to feel that pain! The Gates are open! Pain, anger, hate, fear, kaos, darkness, evil, hell! Gate 1: Darkness, the world of demons Gate 2: My guards are watching you Gate 3: Only evil lives here Gate 4: Thereīs no way out Gate 5: Feel the fire Gate 6: Pick up your weapons and fight! Fight! And dance with the devil!

A spirit flew the way to Hell. It came from Earth, from Denmark. Not long time ago, this spirit had been a person, with a wonderful life. The spirit thought about the life it had been living. It had been great. The body of the spirit had lived to be 26 years old, and very beautiful. Some girls had called the body perfect, especially the girl called Valentina. But he left her, when she became boring to him. Then he had found another girl. Some weeks went by, and nothing happened. Then he met Thana at his favorite night club. And Thana knew him, and she killed him. She had whispered into his ear, after the death, that he would never be able to break another heart, and then she was gone. And so was the spirit. The spirit thought about the person it had been. Justin was the name. Justin had been perfect, but now, when he was dead, there was only the spirit left. The spirit knew, in the same moment it left the body, where it should go. It was ment to be in Hell, and it was almost there. In a huge cave, with red light and fiery walls. It looked forward. A gate. It was huge this gate, and very beautiful. Silver, it thought. Were the gate open?
" The gates are open, Prince. When you are through the gates, you will be my Prince of Darkness." A voice said. The spirit looked down at itself. It had the body again. Perhaps not a real body, but it was a body, and it looked just like the body of Justin. He was alive again.

Justin stood in front of the huge gate of silver. Gate 1. It was open, and Justin went over the step and was in the first Realm of Entrance. It was dark. Justin couldnīt see a thing. Black, darkness, it was everywhere. Something flew down and touched him with a claw. He heard laughter, a loud, evil laughter somewhere in the Realm. It was scary. Justin began to run, and could only feel empty space and the ground under him.
" Are you scared yet?" a voice screamed into his ear. He felt watched. Like thousands of eyes were watching him, and he was scared, but didnīt dare to tell the hidden eyes.
" Who are you? Where are you?" Justin called into the Realm.
" Donīt you know where you are? The world of Demons and Darkness." It was the same voice as before, it had to be the leader of the demons. Justin had never met a demon. Or had he? Justin remembered something in his bed at home. It was supernatural, this being, this beautiful and sexy girl. She had been so seducing, that he had fallen for her. And now he was dead. " You understand the Curse of Demons, Justin. The gates are open!" the voice from the first cave told him.

In front of Justin, there was another gate. Just as huge as the first one, but this time it was made of tree, and it was decorated with faces cut in the tree. Justin looked behind him, into the first Realm. He could see the demons fly around. They were all different, and they looked like humans, just more seducing and scary at the same time. Justin stepped into the second Realm of Entrance. It was a long hall, with purple and blue light. On each side of this tunnel there was guards, with spears and helmets, and they looked real scary. Very carefully Justin began to walk between the guards. Some of the guards had bows and arrows, and began to shoot at him. Justin had to run.
" I wonīt do you no harm! I am a visitor!" he screamed with fright in the voice. But the arrows kept coming, and he was hit more than once. He was happy that he wasnīt alive, because then he would have been dead by now.
" My guards are watching you!" the voice from the first cave said. " The gates are open!" And Justin finally saw the third gate, and ran to the gate.

Justin ran into the third Realm of Entrance before he saw the gate. Everywhere there was scream. Pain. People were tortured in here. Everywhere Justin saw someone being ripped, wraped or some other harm was done to the... was it humans, angels or demons? Justin couldnīt decide, he could just feel the pain. Someone screamed his name and suddenly stones were thrown at Justin. Lots of stones, and they came from everywhere. But Justin was learning. He didnīt want to show that he was scared, and ran away from the stones. He looked around. A grown up man hit a child.
" Why are everyone being so evil?" Justin asked.
" This is all evil from all times. Only evil lives here! The gates are open!" The voice said and Justin saw the next gate, and was happy. He wanted to get away from this evil.

It was a strange gate, and Justin went into the fourth Realm of Entrance. It was not dark, but light. And there was nothing. It was not a huge room like the other Realms. It was small. Like a prison, but there was nothing in it. Justin thought of a box with chocolate, but couldnīt see it. Where was the next gate? The voice cheated him, he was trapped and couldnīt get away. The gate behind him was gone. Desperately Justin knocked on the walls, but they were made of stone and it was impossible to destroy them.
" Well, Justin. Youīre trapped, how does it feel? Thereīs no way out, no way back! The gates are open!" the strange voice said, and suddenly there was a small gate in front of Justin. It was more like a door, but he quickly ran through it.

At the same moment Justin entered the fifth Realm of Entrance, he felt it. Fire. Everywhere, and the gate behind him was gone. It was hot, warm, and impossible to stay. More hot than a sauna, than a volcano he thought. This was an easy Realm, but Justin didnīt knew it. He just felt the fire and ran through the flames which was all around him, and he was on fire.
" You feel the fire! The gates are open!" the voice said, and Justin felt a cold breese, and went through the huge gate in front of him. The gate was made of gold, and was so big and shining, that Justin couldnīt understand it.

He stood in the last Realm of Entrance, the sixth Realm. It looked like an arena, and there was people watching him from everywhere. He felt like he was back in the ancient Rome, and it wasnīt all that wrong. Justin suddenly saw the most scary thing in his life - or death. The man in front of him was dressed in black and red clothe. But it was not normal clothe. The cape he was wearing looked like it was made of fire, and on the helmet sat a snake, and it looked very much alive.
" Now pick up your weapons and fight, Justin! And dance with me, the Devil!" the man said, and Justin saw his weapons in front of him. He picked up a sword, and began to fight with the Devil. It was like a dance, they danced around and fought each other in the ancient arena, but Justin was not in the arena. For him, there was nothing else but the fight. He didnīt notice the people or the arena, only the fight. Suddenly his sword said between the ribs on the Devil, who began to laugh, and pulled the sword out again. " Justin! Welcome to my world! I am Lucifer!" The Devil said, and Justin was in chok. He had fought the Devil and won, and now he had the right to enter Hell as an visitor, not as a spirit who should suffer in the flames. But Lucifer had more surprises for Justin, than just the Gates.
