I wouldn't really say that I hate my life but I'm not necessarily happy with it either. I have found myself not wanting to exist in this reality anymore, I am unsure of what I want because I want to know if Angel Dust is real. Along with Alastor, Charlie, Vaggie, Husk, Niffty, and the others.

I have been taking more deadly risks. But, I still haven't died yet. My next idea was cliff diving. "Yeah, It's risky but if I die, then I just die," I thought out loud. That's kind of the whole point.

Today is the day I am going cliff diving. The journey up the mountain was long and difficult with no path to follow. There were also many rocks and other obstacles that I had to pass on my way up to the top.

I had always known about the risk of dying if you hit the water the wrong way. As I had finally reached the top of the cliff, I breathed in the fresh, earthy air around me. The rocks under me crunched as I took a few steps back. I braced myself, my heartbeat pounding in my chest I could practically hear it in my ears. Ignoring the protests as I lept off the cliff. Gravity pulling me down to my undeniable fate. I plummeted toward the ocean, practically tasting the salt as I was falling. I was greeted by a chilling cold sheet, instead of falling into the salty, ocean water. As I continued to fall, I tried to comprehend what was going on. I felt like I was still plummeting towards the ocean, but I openned my eyes in surprise seeing it was no longer in sight.

When I opened my eyes; I was still falling. But, I was no longer falling toward the ocean. My fate had occured. The air was hot and the sky was red with what looked to be a pentagram for the sun. I looked in front of me and saw something else falling. I reached out for the object and caught it by a string. That's when I realized what I was holding was a necklace. It had one golden star charm. The star had something engraved into it. Almost like a name.

As I was still falling I looked closer at the necklace. "Really, it has my name on it?!" I put it on. That was when a bright red glow surrounded me and I was teleported to the ground. I looked around, taking in my surroundings. I was standing in an alleyway. I put my hand on the wall beside me, as I compose myself. Once I had come back to my senses, I walked out of the alley. "Ugh, what happened to me," I questioned as I took in my surroundings. I saw figures that looked as though they had the physical traits of demons walking around the nearby streets.

I had began to question, was I actually dead? The last thing I remembered was jumping off a cliff towards the ocean. I recalled not feeling myself hit the water, instead I had passed through something cold. Next thing I knew I was here.

I looked back up at the red sky, in the distance I saw a tall, golden, glowing clocktower with a countdown till the "Next Cleanse." "Wait a minute, am I dead?! My surroundings appeared to be a place I had seen somewhere but never been. I started to walk down a sidewalk, not a care where I was going or what I was going to do. I currently had no plan in mind. This unfamiliar place sent chills down my spine. While walking I thought to myself, there's no way this could be a dream. It feels too real." I crossed my arms over each other as I began to nervously walk down the street, feeling that there was a need for me to protect myself.
