" Chief Park ! Just when I was looking for you !"
She frowned , staring at Noir , who suddenly popped out of nowhere. She had absolutely no idea what just happened , and it confused her immensely.
Just a while ago , she was dying , but now , she was as good as new , and dressed in her usual black attire . She found herself in the streets of Konoha , in broad daylight.
" Noir," she murmured , still stunned.
" I suppose you're still wondering what just happened , aren't you Chief Park ?"
She grudgingly nodded. " I was bleeding . It's something that grim reapers never do . It's a sign of mortality ."
" Why don't we take a seat ? This'll be a relatively long talk ," he said , pointing at an unoccupied bench.
As soon as they were seated , Noir began inquiring.
" The first step is to recognise why you did it in the first place. "
" Pardon ?" she replied , frowning.
" Tell me why you saved Itachi . And don't give me the ' you told me to protect him' answer. I know very well that's not the case."
" Well..." she murmured. " He's too good to die ?"
" Every mortal is destined for death. And he is a mortal. He can't be too good to die. You should have known better. "
" He's .. Uh.. Got a lot a people who love him ?"
Noir smirked. " I see the key word in there , but the answer in incorrect. "
" Love ?" she guessed.
" Bingo ! That's the thing !"
Chief Park frowned. " Still , it didn't answer my question ."
" You're pretty slow , aren't you Chief Park ? Ah , the poor thing."
" Noir !" she protested.
" Alright. It's simple really. Like one plus one. Now , getting hurt , wounded , injured , the kind , who does that ?"
" Like a group , or individually ?"
" Of course a group .."he replied with a sigh.
" Mortals , of course."
" Now , who loves the most ?"
" Every single being in the universe ?"
" No , Chief Park. Grim reapers don't love. "
" Again , mortals ?"
Noir nodded. " There you have your answer."
" That didn't answer anything !"she protested.
" Looks like I have to explain it myself then . First , getting injured and the kind , is a mortal thing. Loving another , is a mortal thing. So basically , you saved him out of love , not by obligation or something like that.
Grim reapers don't love , you know that , and that love of yours made you mortal , hence why you got injured."
She bit her lip while she pondered. Noir's answer did make sense.
" But.. Why did you tell me to save him ? You said that he holds the key to who I am .."
" All the memories of your past life had been erased . Nothing , I repeat , nothing can bring it back except for two things. Either it's an order from up there , or being close to someone from your past life."
