Have you ever died? Have you ever felt the need to breathe so badly that you just gave in, gave in to death and let it take you somewhere safe? Have you ever felt helpless, unable to save yourself or the people around you? Did you ever feel so afraid you wish you could run and hide? I don't want to die, because when you die, you die and thats it, you can't do anything about it, you cant stop death. You will regret everything you didn't do. I should have killed Gregory, then maybe I wouldn't be in this mess, maybe the others wouldn't hate me. But its in my heart to love and in theirs to kill. So I'm next and there is nothing I can do about it.

At first I didn't feel anything, I felt at peace. I let death consume me, I was ok with it I would finally be with Gregory, we would be together. That is when I felt it, a searing pain right behind my eyes, my nose. I needed to breathe. I couldn't I would die. My heart beat faster, I was panicking, I really didn't want to die, I felt so helpless, I couldn't save Gregory and I can't save myself. The water was flooding my lungs, pushing the air out. It hurt and I felt like someone was shoving a knife in between my lungs.

I was choking on air and water. I could no longer see the sky above the ocean water, I could no longer see the faces of my killers, not like thats the last thing I wanted to see. I felt something brush my arm. In my fuzzy vision I could barley make out a white cloth, slowly wrapping itself around me, holding me. There was no longer pain, only an aching feeling.

I was no longer dying, or I was still dying, only it didn't hurt so much. I felt as if someone was singing me to sleep, no no, not sleep, death. They were calling to me, pulling me out of my sleep.

I have come to a conclusion, there is no death, just a transition of worlds.
