" who's there?"
Trying to listen if someone says anything back.
Convinced you heard footsteps outside the bedroom door.

Getting up from the bed you grab your dormant reaper.
You hadn't touched it in forever.
Knowing it not only repels spirits it's still a weapon.
Quail always made sure you had the best money could buy.
Taking it in your right hand you make your way to the bedroom door trying to listen.

Someone's foot collides with the door making you jump.
Taking a couple steps back to brace yourself for what could be behind the door.
They continue to kick the door.
The wood starts to crack.
The door swings open.
Almost coming away from the hinges that it hangs from.
A small man stands in front if you.
Relic man.
Fuck.

" where's Lockwood ?"
He says.
Slightly panting from kicking the door down.
" he's not here.
Please leave now"
You hear your voice slightly brake as you try to tell the man to leave.
" that's no way to treat a guest now is it?
Anyway I think we should talk about your little boyfriend.
He .. well let's say he owes me for taking that bone glass "
That bloody bone glass.
Gone but still causing problems for you all.
" get out"
You tell the man now losing your patience.
" no"
With that you use your reaper to slice the relic man's check.
" I wasn't asking now get out !"
The man now angry.
He pulls a knife out of his pocket.
Without thinking you launch yourself at the man pushing past him and running down the stairs.

The front door kicked in as well.
Fuck.
Running into the kitchen and grabbing a large kitchen knife.
Hearing the man shouting something from upstairs.
You can hear him coming down the stairs.

Trying the back door but it's locked.
Fuck.
" can't go anywhere now"
The relic man now stood in the kitchen with another man behind him.
The first relic man coming towards you.
Holding the kitchen knife at stomach level.
" stay back"
You say holding the knife tightly.
" you don't want to do that now sweetie"

The relic man now closing in on you.
You lunge forward.
Plunging the knife into his stomach.
Seeing the look on his face.
Stunned that you had actually stabbed him.

" BOSS"
The other man says.
Grabbing the man in front of you now bleeding uncontrollably.
" GET OUT !"
You shout now pulling the knife out and holding it up to the other man.
He grabs your wrist.

Pulling his other arm up and using his fist to hit you.
Pulling back again and hitting you once more.
Making your legs give in.

Watching the relic men hurry out the kitchen.
The main man hunched over.
The sidekick supporting him.
Now trying to sit up slightly.
You notice a small cut on your arm.
Probably from dropping the kitchen knife.
Reaper next to you.

After about half an hour you the strength to pick up both the knife and reaper making your way to the kitchen sink.
Standing for a moment.
Trying to wash off the blood on your hands.

All of sudden you hear Lucy shouting your name.
Turning off the tap and waiting for them to come into the kitchen.
Catching your breathe.
You hear Lockwood.

Fuck.
