Snippet #2355525

The girl was probably out of another hour after the strange boy had brought her into his house, or mansion. For the first time ever, she had a dream. She was watching herself, like it was a movie of some sort. She was in front of her house back in the Shadow Realm, facing the old willow tree by the edge of the yard. She was slightly younger than her former self. “…98…99…100!! Ready or not! Here I come!!” She shouted, turning away from the tree. Even in the Shadow Realm, there are children’s games like almost all other Realms out there. The younger Reaper girl ran around her property, it being the boundaries and all, in search of her friend. “Hmp! Where is he?” She pouted, looking everywhere possible to hide. There was a quiet snicker blowing through the wind. The younger girl glanced up, seeing her friend, Liam, on the roof of her house. “Liam!!! Get Down here this instant!!!” She angrily yelled, watching the boy jump off the roof, and land on the ground in front of her. “That’s cheating!! You can’t hide on the roof, it’s not fair!!” The girl crossed her arms over her chest and glared at Liam. “Haha! It’s not cheating. The roof on your house is still in the boundaries. Sooo, it still counts!” Liam laughed, patting her on the head.

That sweet dream she was having, rapidly changed into a horrid nightmare. Houses in front of her caught on fire, Reapers running around trying to put the fire out. “Liam…Liam where are you!!” She called out frantically, running around. Finally spotting Liam in the sky, she quickly ran towards him unfurling her wings. But it was too late, an Angel had shot an arrow was shot, hitting Liam between his wings, he started going down, than poof he turned to a pile of ash. For Reapers with wings, getting hit with enough power between them was a critical weak point, it could kill one. “Li…am…” The little Reaper girl started screaming, crying, than everything went black. The strange girl shot up on the couch, as she was still screaming. She quickly stopped, realizing she was somewhere else. Her heart was racing and she was breathing heavily with tears running down her cheeks. She was wide awake now, frightened and confused on what she just saw.

She took a few deep breaths. Her vision was still a slight blur and she felt dizzy, ready to pass out again. Did her hit that building that hard? Staring down at herself, she found herself practically covered with cuts and bruises. Then she glanced up, seeing a boy sitting in front of her. On the table in-between them was a note that read “Hello. I'm terribly sorry, but I am incapable of speech. Do you have any requests?” She looked back at the boy and shook her head ‘no’.
