Monthly Fantasy Challenge for April.
You found an old copy of On a Pale Horse in your seat on the plane. Weirdly enough, it's leather-bound. You have nothing else to read. When you look up from the book after the plane has hit altitude, you realize you're flying through Hell, not to stay, but to report back. You see billboards and allure, but what's there behind the modernized version, and why the need to advertise? Winner is decided by likes, and will recieve a crisp $10.00 -Take us there...

Highway to Hell

"Please fasten your seatbelts like so and read the safety information brochure in your seat back pocket."

I scowled as the airplane staff went over the safety information.

I pulled the brochure out of the seat back pocket and something else tumbled out of it too.

It was a disgusting old copy of On a Pale Horse.

I threw it behind me and ignored the screams of a young woman behind me as the book lodged itself in her eyeball.

Then I took a huge bite out of the safety packet and decided that I was done with safety.

I kicked open the window and hurled myself out of it, I grew wings and floated through Hell which wasn't really surprising.

Sure it would have been fun to shove people off of the stairs to Heaven and watched their faces as they fell to the bottom and had to climb back up again, but that required too much effort on my part.

I took the highway, which was actually a plane take-off runway.
