Yours Celestially by Al Hess

After divorce, death, and having his reformatted soul uploaded into a new body, Sasha expected resurrection to be a fresh start. His time spent in digital Limbo with the program's cheeky AI guardian angel, Metatron, was cathartic, but what good is a second life when he only sees his daughter on the weekends, he has all the same problems he had before he died, and he can't seem to shake the ache for the married life he lost? If that weren't frustrating enough, a glitch in the program has given Sasha the ability to sense Metatron even outside of Limbo. And Metatron is in love. The angel's sickly-sweet yearning for one of the souls still in Limbo has turned Sasha's stomach into caramelized lead.

How convenient and perfect! Just as I'm about to unroll it I bump into none other than the jerk Wizard again, standing right there in the middle of the road where I swear he wasn't a moment ago.

"You're completing this entirely too easily." He mumbles. I don't think he meant for me to hear it. He wiggles his fingers in my direction and suddenly I'm clutching thin air. He has our map! He gives us a smug smile and waves the scroll in our direction before he poofs away again. I'm so stunned that all I can do is give Heather a look she can only interpret as Did you see what that jerk did?! All we can do now is keep following the road.
