Ben almost committed involuntary suicide as his head crashed into the wall. Fortunately he was not running at full speed and the gods saw it fit to bestow him another chance at life through their mercy.

She smoothed down her dress with her hands making sure it was airtight on her body. It was an immaculate black Jean Paul Gautier dress. No one would miss her hour glass silhouette or her glowing skin visible through the slit that nearly went all the way up to her bottom.
