Torn Minds (Afterdeath)

Chapter 14

(Genos POV)

Reaper seemed shaken when he woke up but he played it off ensuring life and I he was alright. Reaper had been out for three days.

Three days of chaos, the night of the prison raid we lost many people Nightmare has not shown since the incident and Dream has been trying to hold everything together while we try to figure a plan.

Fear has crept its way in to everyone, if killer was taken so closely to us that means anyone could be next? This safe haven might not be as safe as they once hoped.

Picking at my food the cafeteria held anxiety riddled whispers, yet my table was quiet. It was a lot quiet since what happened to killer. Cross and Error also picked at their food.

They both had known killer longer then me and even though he was a jerk and cocky I still did miss his dumb jokes and quick Witt.

Sighing the murmurs got louder perking up I looked across the room trying to locate the source of why the chatter got louder. Finally my gaze stopped.

Nightmare and Dream strided in to the room. Reaper and a few other of the trainers followed behind. Reapers gaze was locked to the floor. Finally they took place at the front of the large room Dream and Nightmare in the center. Nightmares gaze challenged anyone else's who dared. When the chatter died down Dream finally spoke.

I glanced at cross who's eyes  where trained on nightmare.

"I know you have all been worried." Dream announced he paused taking a deep breath. "However I can assure you all that we are going to be fine, we have devised a plan to hit back at the humans. Yes we have taken a few step backs but this is only temporary."

Someone stood up there chair scratching along the floor. "Oh yeah? Well what is this plan then cause the first one was such a success!" Mutters of agreement filled the room.

Dreams expression changed he seemed to have lost his nerve but nightmare stepped forward his presence snuffing the rooms chatter again.

"You have placed your trust in us before and now we ask that of you again. This plan we know will work, our prison break was ambitious and stupid. Fuelled by vengeance, however this time we have thought every possibility through we ask that you just trust us and still believe in our cause."

A heavy weighted Silence filled the room. My eyes searched for reapers gaze, when we locked eyes I tried to search for what he was feeling but Reaper was so hard to read sometimes. Sighing to my self I looked at the empty spot killer once filled. I wonder what horrible things are happening to him..

~~~
It was late at night yet I couldn't sleep, now I know how reaper feels battling the urge to sleep. Yet no matter what I tried sleep wouldn't come to me. I ended up finding my self down a hallway I have never been to. I noticed a sign that stated 'Dorms 1-15' which was weird since I'm in dorms set number 75.

Walking down the hall everything seemed a lot older and more worn. Where these the first set of dorms? Walking further down a few name plates across the doors where scratched out. Possibly meaning they where no longer around..

However some I recognized like life. However one door at the very end of the hall I walked up too, the name plate Read Reaper.

Oh this this must be his room, the name plates around the other doors next to him where scratched out as where most of them.

Suddenly a cold feeling creeped up my spine, freezing a cold voiced sounded behind me "what is it you think your doing." I gasped Then the voice got lighter "one eye?" Turning around I gave him a hard shove cause he was such a jerk for scaring me.

He chuckled as he stumbled slightly back "no really why are you up here?" He asked after he stopped laughing at my scared reaction.

Folding my arms across my chest I felt a little embarrassed he caught me wondering around and also looking at his door.

"I couldn't sleep so I was just looking around" reaper tilted his head. "How are you doing?" I blurted our feeling uncomfortable with how sceptical he looked. "Fine now, life helped heal me good and.. I guess I needed that long sleep eh?" He asked a hint of amusement entering his voice.

"Anyways I was needing to chat with you" he continued he scooted past me to open up his door. "Come on in" I felt a blush rise on my cheeks this felt to personal going in to his room this late at night.

Following him as he stepped in I took a quick glance around.

The walls where a faded light blue colour. A shelf was in the back room over a desk and rather then bunk beds there was one single bed tucked away in the corner of the room that had grey blankets. There was also a few pages scattered around and a few papers stuck to the wall above the desk.

Reaper waited till I was done looking around he didn't seem to mind just stood patiently. Finally when I looked back at him he sat in his desk chair which apparently spun around.

He motioned for me to take a seat. Feeling more awkward I sat on the edge of his bed facing him. He leaned back in his chair grabbing a few of the papers on his desk.

As he shuffled through then I noticed a picture on the desk that was under some of the sheets of paper, it was Reaper looking much younger with a big group of people I recognized Dream and Nightmare as well as life. However the others I did not know.

"So reaper why did you bring me here?" I asked after he was shuffling for a while with out saying anything. He looked up at me from his papers.

"The humans, they have a military camp up on the north eastern side of the mountain here. He showed me the map that he was apparently looking at. A location was circled, I nodded like I understood but honestly I had no idea what reaper was wanting me to understand.

He must have seen the confusion on my face as bad I was trying to hide it, "our plan is to capture the humans camp." He pointed to the map "the prison was a bit ambitious but if we capture this sector it will not only save the bear by villages but also show them that we aren't to be messed with."

It clicked this was a way to get back. "Ohhh" he nodded. "Are you in?" He held his hand out to shake. Looking at it and then back at Him it's quiet possible this plan could crash and burn like the last one. "What about nightmare?" I asked, "he won't be joining us." Reaper said Cooley back.

Letting a small smirk on my face I grabbed his gloved hand Shaking. "Alright I'm in." "Wonderful" he replied taking his hand back my hand felt tingly touching his.

"When do we leave?" I asked "two days" I nodded getting up, "well I better be getting to sleep." Reaper chuckled "alrighty, sleep well one eye" shaking my head I rolled my eye.

Shutting the door behind me I walked down the hallway humming a tune quietly.
