1 Prologue

I pulled up to my mother's house in my old sedan that I could replace but have yet a reason to. I visit once a week since she is very disorganized and I have to clean the house a little for her and I want to check up on her. As I walk up the driveway I see nutmeg my little sister's cat that seems to be lying in the shade looking like she might die any second now with good reason in this summer heat over a hundred today. The California heat of summer makes you feel like you are being roasted alive, glad I am not in Florida at least or I would definitely be swimming in my own sweat the moment I got out of my car.

I walk into the house and quickly escape from the angry ball of fire in the sky that makes you wonder if it hates us and wants us all dead. Smiling to myself about myself wondering why i am thinking about that right now I go to the family room near one end of the house where my mother is usually working to find today is no different.

"How you doing mom" I quietly say to her as I draw near so as to not frighten her when she is focused on what she is doing.

"I got two new business partners this week and almost have enough points to be promoted to marketing director" she happily replies.

"Told you it will happen, the is very few in the company that works as hard as you after all" I reply to her with a smile. then start moving to the kitchen to do the dishes since I know my little sister won't try doing this anytime soon.

"Is Cherise doing ok right now" I shout to my mother as I make it to the kitchen?

There is a pause before she yells back "I got her to apply for classes at a community college, though she still doesn't help me with the house."

I nod my head to the progress she is starting to make and am happy about it, she has been having problems with depression lately. "I will go see her after I am done," I tell her back.

"How is Mary doing right now, have you proposed to her yet" my mother comes around the corner with this gleam in her eye.

"I am planning to propose when I take her out to a fancy restaurant tomorrow" I quietly say as I look away from her shyly.

"I know you are nervous but you have no reason to be both of you are madly in love with each other and there is really no way she is going to say no Kieth you know that to say hold your chin up." I nod my head in reply yet I cant help getting the butterflies when I think about it. I can't imagine a life without her and would be devastated if she said no. Yet I also know she is waiting for those words and think she might know I am going to pop the question soon. she loves me just as much as I love her.

I finish up the dishes that have built up in the sink then head over to my sister's room to go say hi and congratulate her for the progress she has made. On the way there I see her switch on the couch still on with a pokemon game showing.

I pick it up as I go along and reminisce about my own childhood when I use to play this game, the last one I played was pokemon black and I enjoyed it. My age though has caught up to me and I don't really play these kinds of games anymore, I put most of my time into the love of my life and my work that I am soon going to be promoted in. I am thankful all my effort has paid off in all aspects that I put it in and am looking forward to the future.

My reminiscence ends when I step in front of the door to my sister's room. she usually plays games at this time and has her headphones plugged in so she won't hear me knock so I just open the door and walk-in. I see my sister holding a gun towards her head and her jumping from surprise and in her fluster the gun ends up towards me and her finger already pressing the trigger finishing it and the loud noise of a gun going off with a BANG!

I felt it when a stabbing pain started blooming from my chest and i look down to see my shirt slowly being died red, i lift my hand and put it on my chest noticing i am still holding her console with a "would you like to start a new game" shining in my eyes. i collapse to the ground as the bullet hit my heart i can hear my sister screaming and crying, but i cant make out any words. its like everything is turning static as the last thing i see is the console screen still in front of my eyes with the yes icon somehow being clicked from the drop and the new game loading screen and everything turns black.

AAAAAAHH! I open my eyes screaming I can feel a faint pain in my chest still but as i look around I realize I'm still alive and then I check my chest for the bullet wound and am shocked not because there is no wound, but my chest looks like from when i was six. No my skin is lighter than before even from when i was little, the room is also foreign and not even my tastes from when i was six.

Stopping and forcing myself to calm down by breathing in through my mouth and out through my nose, an excersize that always worked to keep me calm. Then a headache hit me with a lot of memories of as it turns out the body that i have taken over whose name is Jason, I continue to learn or remember about where i am who i now am and most importantly the situation I have ended up in.

No No No NO NO NO NONONONONONOOOOOOOOOOO! I scream and scream and scream WHY WHY DID THIS HAPPEN TO ME I DIDN'T DO ANYTHING WRONG I DIDN'T DESERVE THIS! WHAT ABOUT MY MOTHER OR MY SISTER AND MY JOB AND and. . . Carla my love. I kept hitting the floor with every word i said with snot and tears cascading down my face. Someone opens the door to my room and in comes a middle aged women quickly rushing to me when she sees me and quickly starts to comfort me asking "whats wrong its OK I am here".

I push her away from me and shout "YOUR NOT MY MOTHER" i go to the corner away from this women and continue to cry and sob asking why this happened what did I do to deserve everything taken away from me before eventually falling asleep.
