*Collins POV*

*BAM* I hit the ground with a thud "Oh, my back" I groaned. I stumbled up and looked at my surrounding "Woah" I caught myself saying as my eyes grew wide at the sight I saw.

It appeared I was walking on water and there was nothing but water as far as the eye could see

It appeared I was walking on water and there was nothing but water as far as the eye could see. The sky was blue with many clouds, which was perfectly reflected in the crystal clear water that I stood apon "Where am I?" I said aloud. *CRRRRRRRACKBOOOM*

In the sky opened a large crack that made the sky look like glass

In the sky opened a large crack that made the sky look like glass. Something seemed to fall out of the crack fell nearby. I looked around to see if someone would come out to claim the mysterious object, but no one came. With nothing else I could do, I decided to investigate the object. I walked slowly towards the impact point, bracing myself for any possible retaliation. Apon arrival, I saw it was in fact my scythe. But it was different. It now seemed to be filled with the same energy as the crack in the sky "Kudos to my imagination, this is way different then any dream ive had before" I went to grab my scythe but as I reached for it, it disappeared. I started to feel my legs to grow cold. I looked down and saw that the water was rising. But I was remaining in place "Ah shit" I said as the water continued to rise. I tried to stay afloat, but it was like invisible chains pulled me to the sea floor. I held my breath as the water started to cover my face. Once I was fully submerged I went down...... Down...... And down...... All of the sudden, I felt gravity gain a heavier toll on me and I was in free fall once again "NOT AGAIN" I yelled. As if the dream heard my complaint I was down on the ground within an instant. This time it was dark, but light still seemed to beam in the sky. "It must be night" I said to myself "ROOOOOOAAAAAR" I looked around to see what made the noise *WHOOOSH*
Something flew by me in the air. Something big. I couldnt see much, but large wings and a big tail. Once that beast past I saw an odd sight.

Large purple comets flew over head in the starry night sky "What is going on?" I thought

Large purple comets flew over head in the starry night sky "What is going on?" I thought. All of the sudden "HAHAHAHAHAHA" That sinister laugh. I turned to seem something that shook me to the core. It was the city of death laid to ruin and it and all of the afterlives,Hell, Heaven, The underworld All of them were scattered and destroyed along the mortal realm. At the center of it all, was the hooded man with an army of demons and spirits "Oh no- this- this cant be" I said in horror. At the base of where the hooded man stood was a mountain. Wait, no it wasnt a mount. It was my friends. Their bodies laid cold and lifeless with cuts, bruises, and wounds alike "Is..... This the future? Or merely what could be?" I said with a quiver in my voice *CRRRRACKBOOM* Another crack in the sky open, this time right on top of me. Out came an odd assortment of objects. Dual pistols, Dual katanas, A sword and Shield, A gauntlet, and so many more weapons, all bearing the same blue energy I saw my scythe have. I looked at the objects and as they swirled around me, they began to move faster and faster.

Soon it was like I was stuck in the middle of a blue hurricane. Then I started to hear voices "GET OUT, MOVE NOW" I heard to my right "Oh gods, he's here" I heard a familiar female voice to the left. Dianne? Who's the "He" she was referring to? "WE HAVE TO STRIKE HARD AND FAST" I heard my voice say from behind me. A memory? No I have never said that. Perhaps its another vision of the future? "I have to wake up, I have to save my friends" I slapped myself rapidly failing to wake up "WAKE UP, WAKE UP" I screamed. I started to claw at the dirt and threw some in my eyes. The pain burned, but I was still asleep. I began to cry. Is this death for people like me? Purgatory? I was finally happy, I didnt even knew what I had until I lost it. My friends, Dianne, Grim, all of the people in my life that made the world I live in all the more brighter. The only calm in the hell that is my dreams and the sorrow of watching the world and crumble to dust around me. I curled into a ball and hugged myself. The closest thing I could do to a warm embrace from my newly found love "Ccccccollin hang on" I heard whispering out in the distance "Hang on" This time more clearly. It was Dianne "Dianne where are you" I said aloud. A small dark cloud formed in front of me and formed the shape of a window. Peering through, I could see Grim, My friends, And Dianne stepping into a large red hallway "I'll take the lead kids, Morningstar is my coworker, If anyone can broker a deal with the Devil, its me" Grim said in the most serious tone ive heard out of him "How's he holding up?" Asked Walburn to the magic users of the group "Not good, his wounds are healed but theirs not enough blood in his system to keep him stabled, Quill is feeding him beans that carry extra packs of nutrients, but that won't be enough soon" Who are they keeping alive? As if the dream heard me again, The scene shifted to give me a better view of the person in question. It was me! This vision had to be real, as the cloths I was wearing were the same red blazer and white button up I was wearing at Beelzebub's bar. Only now, they were badly tattered and covered in blood. They must be trying to save me. I tried to reach out to the image, but an invisible wall stopped me from getting to my friends "My friends" I said with a smile and a tear "Their still fighting for me" I said as I continued to watch the scene unfold........
