People always talk about death, funny subject, really. They talk about Heaven and Hell, the afterlife. They are wrong. Death isn't about what goes after it, it is about what DOESN'T come after it, there is no 'light at the end of the tunnel.' Most of the time, there is just darkness, pitch darkness.
I always get asked 'Do I know you from somewhere?', but I always have to say 'No', even though they DO know me. I'm at all funerals, all wars, and all tradgedies. I've lived through death about a thousand times, because I AM Death.
People imagine a scythe, and a dark grey cloak when they talk about me, but wouldn't that kind of stand out if I dressed like that? I'm just a normal guy, I go to school, I have friends, I go to parties, anything that a normal person would do. My friends know me by the name of Jared, but I use many names and bodies, I change names and bodies every 70 years or so, if I didn't, then people would know I'm immortal.
People think that 'Death is careless, why would he kill innocent people, couldn't he save them?' Well, there is a simple answer to that. No, I can't save people, I had to take my best friend's life, just because a drunk driver wouldn't stop for him. I would have saved him if I could have.
