Lady Reaper (souleater fanfic)

Chapter 83

Kyle's Pov

After bringing home more food for the third time this week I grabbed a brownie to eat from the bench.

"Hey Kyle. Can I talk to you?" Kid asked quietly.

"Always. What's up?" I answered. "Before you answer is this a anyone can hear conversation or let's head of to the study or something?"

"The study please. It's about Kit."

"OK let's get some tea since Kit will kill me if I drink coffee this late." I said grabbing the pot and filling it with water. "Grab the biscuits Kid. I'll be up shortly."

"I've got the mugs, spoons and saucers as well." He beamed at me before grabbing the bickies and leaving. I chuckled and got everything else ready. Once the water boiled I poured it into the tea pot and walked up to my study where Kid was waiting for me.

"Can I ask where my sister is right now?" Kid asked pouring himself a cup of tea.

"Somewhere in the city doing some sort of class." I shrugged. "I sort of just let her go sometimes I mean it's not like I can really stop her."

"Cause she can kill you?"

"Kid anyone in theory, heck!! Even a dedicated duck could kill me. Kit can doing something far worse than any man or duck."

"Like?"

"She has a sharp tongue that can cut you to the bone. Come to think of it my fear of what Kitana can do to me doesn't make much sense." I shrugged before pouring my own tea and a biscuit. "What did you want to talk about?"

"Kit and I were talking the other day and she seemed very flat. She brushed off suicide like it was nothing and even said that if I had a good enough reason she would stab herself. That's not her." Kid muttered almost sounding confused.

"Hey it's May right? She normally gets this way around May. The second June comes in though she's normal again. You just hadn't noticed before because she's really good at hiding her pain." I mused.

"What happened in May?"

"Lots. Over a few centuries mind you she lost her twin, Older siblings, Mother, Brother in Law and all of her children. May seems to have it out for us." I stated. "It's harder on her because she blames herself but she can't all the time."

"Did it happen in that order?"

"No. Lucifer died about 20 years after we met him. Kit and Mor were the only ones how could recover the body and laid him to rest. All I ever saw of Lucifer was a kinda body shaped shroud. Their mother died about ten years later. Our first born reaper died the following year. Should I be telling you all of this? I don't think I should. Trauma is bad." I rambled before sculling my tea to make myself shut up.

"OK well that explains why she's like this at the moment but shouldn't we be watching her a little more closely or something?" He asked.

"Nah. It would take something pretty bad happening to make Kit go of the rails. She's a tough cookie."

"Side question why do you always tell me to grab biscuits? Everyone else calls them cookies."

"One I spend far too many years in Britain. Two there is a difference people just don't know it and finally cookies just sound weird to me."

"There's a difference?"

"Cookies are bigger and softer. Biscuit means twice cooked and they used to be cooked twice."

"By that definition potato bake is a biscuit." Kid smirked.

"Don't start that again. You guys already tried to argue that a hot dog is a sandwich and that cereal is soup. I have lived far too long and have more important stuff to be confused about than if cereal is soup or not."
