Don't worry about it.

Don't think so hard,

'cause your veins might explode.

I'll figure this out on my own.

Bingo.

I'm sorry.

I couldn't do it.

I'm sure you're disappointed.

This is the second time

I've failed to die.

If you don't mind,

how about I live for you?

You could drink my blood

whenever you wanted,

however much you wanted.

But...

you have to promise me

no more killing...

that I'd be the only one.

Can I drink from your neck?

I've never drunk like that before.

Do whatever you want.

My blood is your blood.

Mandala...

I'm Ingrid Bell.

I'm Simon Williams.

I'm Simon Williams.

It's nice to meet you,

Simon Williams.

It's nice to meet you too.

Hello.

Excuse me, can I help you?

Uh, I'm here for Mina.

Oh, you're the teacher.

Yes, come with me.

Okay.

Is everything okay?

Well, no, it's not okay.

We've got her in intensive care.

- I see.

- She had quite a night last night.

We almost lost her.

She's a bit pale.

She's been through a lot.

She's in a state of shock

from the blood loss.

It wasn't fatal.

That said, her condition's

far from stable.

She's a Japanese exchange student.

She's in my biology class.

Yeah, her host parents

from her home stay

are on the East Coast

this weekend.

You know,

she had to call 911 herself.

Makes you wonder

if she really wanted to die.

Well, maybe she just got scared

at the last minute

and changed her mind.

We found your phone number

in her phone's call history.

It looks like she tried calling you

over and over again.

- Yeah.

- Yeah.

Sorry about that.

Is there anything I can do, Miss Ray?

Well, she's lost a lot of blood.

Do you know what your blood type is?

Mine?

Uh, yeah.

She needs blood.

Maybe you can help us.

I don't know

what my blood type is, so...

Well, let's find out, shall we?

Come on, it's just very simple.

Okay.

Now just one little prick.

- You'll barely feel it.

- Okay.

- There you go.

- Ow.

All right,

I just need a drop.

Here.

All right, yes,

sometimes it's better if you don't look.

- Yeah, I don't want to look at it.

- There you go.

Okay, gotcha.

Okay, congratulations.

You're O-positive.

It means you can help her.

- Oh.

- Here.

You know, I know that she is

really gonna appreciate this.

Okay.

Yeah, let's just...

swing yourself around. Good.

- And lay down.

- Okay.

All right, now...

You don't look like needles

are your favorite thing, huh?

No.

Oh God.

All right,

now make a fist for me.

I am.

Let's see.

That looks pretty good.

All right.

Simon!

Stop.

Stop. I...

Stop. I can't...

I can't see anything. It's...

everything is dark.

I can't see.

I'm anemic.

I gave too much blood.

Your high school teacher stopped by

and donated this blood for you.

Is he here?

No, he left already.

But he said he'd stop by tomorrow

and check on you.

Just rest.

- Hmm.

- So this is it.

A balloon.

Yeah.

I'm sorry

it's a bit of a mess in here.

It's okay.

- I'll get you something to sit on.

- Okay. Okay.

Here.

So I can take pictures with this.

Or I...

I can do your...

do your video also.

Okay.

I brought you an apple.

I used to dance.

What kind of dancing?

Ballet dancing.

Belly dancing?

No, not belly dancing.

Ballet dancing. Ballet.

It's weird to dance on a refrigerator.

- On a freezer.

- A freezer. A freezer.

Okay.

Hmm.

Why do people walk?

Walk?

Yeah, why do they walk?

When I was little, I used to...

I used to think that people walked

'cause they liked the sound

that their footsteps made

and that all the people

on the street were walking

'cause they liked the sound.

- Huh.

- Hmm.

I'd put, like,

pebbles in...

pebbles in my shoes

so they made more noise

when I walked.

One day my teacher told me...

it was like I was walking funny,

so she made me take them out.

I hated school.

Me too.

I'll tell you what...

you can walk however you want.

- Okay?

- I know.

- Okay.

- Here.

Okay.

Hi, everyone.

My name...

my name is Maria Lucas.

I'm 25.

And I'd be turning

26 next month

if I weren't about to die.

But I'm... I'm done.

I never figured out how to enjoy...

enjoy life.

It just really...

it's always seemed

so strange to me,

didn't make sense.

But in my next life

I want to be human again.

Hades is helping me to die.

He's... he's behind

the camera right now.

I wonder if I'll see you in heaven.

We met on a website called...

called Side by Cide...

and decided that we were

gonna die together, so...

I'm gonna go first.

Don't take too long, okay?

Okay.

Do you ever die in your own dream?

I've never died in my own dream.

Is it even possible...

to die in your own dream?

If this were my dream,

I would never die.

What if this isn't your dream?

Hmm?

What if it's mine?

Is this your dream?
