The Angel of Death [Kaylor fanfiction]

Chapter 1 - The RED Folder

As I was walking to my office I saw Cara in the hallway who looked much paler than usual.

"Tough shift last night?" I asked.

"Yeah, the fat bitch wasn't walking fast enough, I had to drag her to the street for the hit, it was a mess." Cara laughed while I shook my head and opened the door to the "job room", my office. The small room is all white with just a desk in the middle of the room, a few folders are lying neatly on the desk, again, all white except the bottom folder is red, these are my jobs for the week. I picked them up and quickly scanned them for the expiration date, time and location but noticed the red folder is empty with no appointed info. This is weird, it never happened before.

---------------------------

"Come in." A voice is heard behind the closed door.

I opened the door of my superior's office. A man with grey hair and neatly trimmed goatee, dressed in a black suit, black shirt but a white tie is standing in the empty room with his hands behind his back facing backward to the door. He turned around as I was walking into the room. Without saying a word, I held up the strange red folder.

"Oh, that one..." he says without emotion and walked closer to me, took the red folder from my hand and put his left palm on it.

Words begin to appear inside the red folder with appointed date - 2016.12.13.

"A year later? Why are you giving it to me now?" I have question marks all over my face.

"Because this is a special job." He started to pace around the room. "You need to accompany the subject for a year until she expires." He now stopped in front of me and gave me a blank face.

"WHAT? A YEAR? Give it to Cara, she loves to stay there." I complained, the thought of staying in that world freaked me out.

"No, Cara will cause more trouble than anything" He continues with an intriguing look on his face "And besides, it's your destiny to be with her, Karlie."

"But I don't get it. Why a year?" I never took a job that required more than a few hours and never stayed there enough to understand the place.

"She is special, very special. It's a shame she has to expire at such a young age but this is an order from above, there's nothing we can do and since she has done so many good deeds to countless people, it's the reason why she is granted an extra year longer and your job is to help her fulfill her dreams before she expires...and..." He paused.

"And what?" I have a bad feeling already.

"And make her happy." He continues.

I'm now speechless, making people happy is not in my job descriptions or it's one of my skills.

"Don't be sad. I'll send Cara to meet you from time to time, she was from there so she can help you maneuver your way around." The old man is trying to cheer me up now.

I sighed and left his office. Bumped into Cara again in the hallway, she snatched the red folder out of my hand and screamed when she saw the subject's name.

"NO FUCKING WAY!!!" Cara says it with excitement. "But why you? I want this job! I should go talk to that old fogy." She pretended to knock on his office's door but quickly turned around to face me.

"You lucky dog! You're going to have fun with her." She soft punched my right arm. "I'll come visit you...and her...haha...."

"Just don't scare her Karlie." Cara continued to give me what I needed to "survive" in that part of the world. "First of all, do not wear all black, they will expire much faster when they see us in black. You also need to smile a lot to make them feel at ease.....I mean unless the subject is an asshole which in this case she is not, she's a sweetheart" Cara laughed and she went on and on except my thoughts are on how to make the subject happy after she finds out she only has one year to live. Finally, we reached the departure gate. "I'll be seeing you soon on the other side." Cara winked, gave me a hug before walking off.

By the way, let me introduce myself. My name is Karlie Kloss and I'm an Angel of Death, I was born to become one in the dark world, unlike Cara who was born on the other side, normally we don't allow anyone from there to become an angel but Cara sweet-talked her way to the top and somehow we became best buddies.

I passed the departure gate and finished the other jobs before taking this long journey. I opened the red folder again which has a subject name: Taylor Alison Swift
