Technically, I didn't. But it was the time anomaly; I could die a number of times within that cycle, but when it reset, I was alive once again. But since I was inserted into an empty role, I remembered. Every time I died, I remembered what it felt like.
Once, it was simply a matter of staying too close to Angra Mainyu, and I could not suppress my body's reaction to demonic presences. Not only did I die, but the person I was supposed to be protecting did as well. It was one of the last things I recall from that instance. I regret that.

Another time, Rider-Medusa-became a little too affected by her surroundings, and attacked me. I couldn't defend myself, and it was...over and over, right in the guts.
It might have been elsewhere too, but that's what I recall the most. It's rather painful. I think she kept missing the veins and arteries that would have killed me quickly on purpose.
[She reports it calmly, as if this is nothing to her. Old news, and she doesn't even have the scars for it. She remembers. And that's all.]
