They're coming. They told me. Well, they talked to each other in front of me. But it's the same thing. Tick tock, tick tock. Only three days and four hours and twelve minutes and two seconds. That's it. That's it. Tick tock tick tock tick tock not much more time. It's two forty eight and fifty nine seconds, now. A.M.. Not p.m., a.m.. Not that much more time. Then I'll be dead, and I won't have to know the time all the time. No pun intended.

I used to want a better power. Now? Now that I know I am going to die? All I want is Death.
