I went back to my apartment and locked myself in my room. A let myself slide down the door and pulled my legs up to my chest and wrapped my arms around them.

Did that really just happen?

"Corbyn! Corbyn?" I heard Daniels voice from outside my room.

"I don't wanna talk to you."

"Please?"

I stood up and swung the door open. "I TOLD YOU I DON-"

I gasped and grabbed my chests were my heart was as I struggled to breath.

It's happening again.

"Crobyn?!" Daniel gasped as I collapsed on the floor wheezing for breath.

He dropped to the floor kneeling down next to me and shook me.

I took one last attempt at air before I blacked out.

~~~

I opened my eyes and saw the ceiling to my bed room.

I knew I was on my bed and I felt Daniels arms on my stomach as I heard him sobbing and shaking me weakly. He muttered in between sobs, 'Wake up, wake up Corbyn. Please wake up.'

I took in a breath for the first since I blacked out. My chest was loose again and I could breath like normal.

Daniel looked up right away and gasped crying more.

"Your alive! Your alive!" He yelled and wrapped his arms around my neck hugging me tightly.

Well dang.

"What happened to you?!" He gasped pulling away wiping his tears.

I fidgeted with my hands as I fought for a explanation for what just happened.

That was real. That happened. So the other times must have been real too. But how am I still alive?

The only thing I can do is tell him the truth.

So I told him everything. Everything except the thing with the black figure. I wasn't ready to tell him that yet.

His eyes widened as I told him of the other time I had died and then came back to life along with my dream.

If Daniel hadn't seen me die then come back alive he probably wouldn't believe me and thought I was insane but he had seen it himself.

"Something is happening to me Daniel. Something very very strange. I think...I think I'm turning immortal."

That's what Ork told me at least.

~Corbyns dream when he blacked out~

"Corbyn." I heard a voice, the same voice as the black figure, as I stood in the endless black room.

"Hello? Who are you? What is happening to me?" I called out eagerly.

"Be patient, child. You will soon be free."

"Free from what? Dieing? Why is this happening?"

"Shush! Curiosity leads to bad things!"

His voice softened again and he said, "All I can say is everything will be ok. You will never have to feel pain again. No one will ever hurt you again."

"What do you mean? Like, I'm turning immortal?"

"You are smart. You will be very useful."

Useful?

"Oh, and I am Ork."
