I waited until my last breath came. My father had finally done it. He killed me. He's hated me since- forever. He abused me and cut me. Now his cuts went too far. To deep.
    I faltered my last breath. It came in short gasps." Oh no! No no no no! I should have listened! Jason, I didn't mean for this to happen!" I heard Cameron, my older brother, say apologetically. I stared into his worrisome brown eyes. He had his phone to his ear as my mom pressed against my neck wound." You're going to be okay." She said in a scattered soothing voice. I felt my chest tighten, then my heart beat slower. My eyes started to fall." Stay with us, Jason!" Was the last words I hear.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
   I stared over the scene. Mom was going in hysterics and Cameron was frozen in shock. His phone fell to the floor with a thud." Jason? Open your eyes!" Says Mom.
      I silently walk to my brother. I stare at his handsome features. Dark brown ginger hair, brown eyes, smallish nose. He lets his jaw clench and his hands bawl up. A tear rolls down his cheek. He's 22, been through the Army, and lost his best friend, and this is the first time I've seen him cry. I know he can't feel it, but I hug him as tight as I can." I love you, brother." I backed away and went to my mother. Her dark brown hair stopped at her mid-back. I stare at the sharp cheekbones and her pointed nose. I crouched beside her," It was him." I whisper. None knew it was Dad who killed me. He ran away when he heard Mom and Cameron coming.
      I hug her gently and waited," What am I supposed to do know?" I say loudly. No one came. Am I supposed to live here for the rest of eternity? I thought someone would come and guide me to my resting place." Hello?" I called. No one. Great, now I'm lost. I walk outside. I gasp at the sight. Stars scattered everywhere.  They glittered like sand on a beach. Diamonds on black cloth. I step out and feel solid ground beneath my foot. I walk to the nearest star. It had a- door." Hello?" I say. It swings open," Well, you must be the new one. I'm Gage!" The tall man with higher cheekbones smiled. I shake his hand tentatively," I'm Jason." I say. He sighed," You're the one they said was abused, huh?" He nods to a thick scar on my neck. That's where I was cut," Is this what it would look like if it healed?" Gage nods. I rub it softly and look for his death marks." I was shot in a battle. I was in the Army. Death blow right hear in my ear." He points to his ear. I now realize that he's wearing ACU's and is well built.  How did I miss that? Gage smiled," Ah, nothing like the adrenaline rush you get in a war." He turns into the room he came out of," This is my Residing. That's what there called. Home sweet home!" It looks like any other house. White walls, brown couch. But I realize he's watching something." What are you looking at?" I ask. Gage turns away sadly," You can't see it." I sigh and sit," I'm lost. I don't know where my Residing is." Gage laughs," You know where it is." I grunt and stand," Well, I'm gonna find out!"
