Ch 30

The horrible stench a sweat filled the room, Jacob laid on a bed gasping for breath. “He’s going to die!” Jennie cried.

“This is what is supposed to happen Jennie, this is who Jacob is.”

What do you mean this i who Jacob is? He is dying!”

“No, I am dyeing, Jacob is being reborn”

The old Jacob walked up to him and placed his had on Jacob chest.

“Let the soul I have took half of become whole once again.”

Then as is on cure the younger Jacob’s eyes opened, he stood up and a dagger appeared in his hand, he drove the knife in the older Jacob, then collapse back onto the bed, the older Jacob looked up at the horrified Jennie and muttered his last words “it’s OK” then with that the body disappeared and Jacob woke up. “What happened?”

“You just stabbed yourself”

“I did wha--”

But Jennie stayed silent, a person had come in the room “Are you Jacob?”

“Yes.”

“Follow me please?”

“But, my stab wound I cant walk” Jacob looked down, the wound was bone replaced by a strange looking symbol.

“You can get up.”

Jacob seeming unsure of himself slowly stood off the bed,

“Good” the person said “Now, here is a change of clothes, follow me to the bathroom and get clean, you have an inauguration to go to.”
