I’m in a location that doesn’t have a database entry, standing in a blood-red sky, not sure if that means anything to you. I portaled to it without even meaning to and now my portals won't open.

My friends. I needed my life back. "I'm sorry, Hayden." I whispered. And then things went fast. He tried to grab me the same time I wrapped my hand around my unconscious hand. If you touched your dead body. You'd be sucked back to life. For one whole second, I thought that the young boy back at the shore of Underworld had been wrong. I wouldn't get sucked back to life. This was all a mistake. But then something happened. An invisible force pulled me towards it. Everything around me started to to blur out. And eventually, it darkened.

It was like mirror showing me something like I was watching a movie. "Portal..." I murmur. Suddenly, it shows me a blurred face of a girl in a room using her laptop but she suddenly vanished in a thin light. "What is this? It suddenly changes into a scene to where there's a familiar figure of a girl reading a book but her face is blurry. ### Jasper's POV
