I have to be the unluckiest person on this planet

Sure plenty of people were abandoned on the doorsteps of an orphanage when they were born, well, I was found in a cattle barn but it's not too different. 

Plenty of people had bad parents growing up, a short tempered nun all to happy to grab a ruler isn't very unique. 

Those of us from over crowded homes, or rather orphanages, get used to not having enough food on the table. We learn to ignore the hunger pains as we fall asleep at night. 

No, that's all run of the mill bad luck. I'm the unluckiest person alive, though. I can prove it. 

After all how many people can say they've been shot, and stabbed, and dismembered, and struck by lightning? 

Let me rephrase, how many people can say they've died 27 times.

Every time I die, I jump into the body of another recently deceased person. Usually I get their memories but not always. Sometimes their powerful thoughts and emotions mix with mine to the point I begin to forget what's me and what's them. Sometimes they're alone and I get to start life over. Sometimes their entire family watched them pass away then magically come back to life and I have to pretend I'm the same person they knew before. 

Sure it sounds great if you're scared of death but you also have to deal with my luck. No body has lasted me longer than 20 years. 

Sometimes I get hopeful, I allow myself to make friends and settle down. One time I even got engaged. Then I watched them grieve my death from the body of someone else. 

I'm determined to turn my luck around this time. I was born into the body of a 20 year old man with no family to speak of. I'm going to live a fulfilled life this time. No planes, no cars, no ships, no breaking mirrors or walking under ladders. This time I'm going to make it. 

I just have to figure out what is causing this chest pain and why my arm feels weird. 

Why its so hard to take a deep breath and - 

Fuck, it's another heart attack.
