Snippet #1935649

Adam felt the tension in the air begin to ease, and his cautious approach began to withdraw. Adam's head rose and his eyes automatically focused, as he listened to Mitanni's response “Well... Firstly I'm glad you didn't run away. I know your name, just like I know the names of all your brothers and sisters. There are 7 or 8 of you," Adam's eyes widened, he had more siblings? he felt a weight settle on his stomach, which made him feel slightly sick at the possible revelation "I keep forgetting. Now as much as you might not believe this, your father is what you humans call The Reaper...or simply Death.” Adam's face contorted into a low frown followed by an uneasy laugh, "Your kidding?" Adam muttered as he scanned Mitanni's eyes to see no traces of deception "Your not kidding... wait, wait do you mean Death in the hooded figure Death: with the scythe and everything?"

Adam didn't know how to feel about this. Death is his father? Adam didn't even think of Death as an entity, more as a force like Gravity: a more keen example would be a guillotine. Adam didn't even know if Mitanni was telling the truth, but he knew more than Adam did which drove Adam's curiosity really, and as a plus he felt lost not knowing which route to pick which put slight pressure onto Adam.. Mitanni interrupted Adam's train of thought, as he spoke “I am one of his messengers...The messenger of War. Mitanni Assur is my name. We are 4 messengers that serve your father and we have been sent to aid you and your siblings through....many changes that are too come. I am here to aid you...not hurt you in any way” Adam twisted his head slightly, as his mind settled on a particular topic "So there's 4 of you, like the Horseman of the Apocalypse?" Adam asked curiously, he wanted to know how far he was away from the truth and he enjoyed the particular feeling when he was right.

Adam's mind wandered for a few seconds exploring possibilities to justify the goings on, which none explained logically what happened. Adam shook his head before noticing Mitanni had outstretched his hand as if to give Adam a handshake, “Take my hand...I shall bring us back to my dojo where we can talk if you have any questions” Adam felt Mitanni's eyes settle on his, and Adam held his breath before muttering rather unsure "As long as there's answers count me in." Adam stretched his hand forward, gripping Mitanni's hand.
