Heartless

Chapter 13 (Important)

The castle was as dark and beautiful on the inside as the outside. The decor consists of 5 colors. Green, red, white, gray and of course black. It was like being Cinderella walking into a ball of death, but ten times better. I should remodel the funeral home.

"Welcome home my son." A man in a black suit announces.

"Father." Crypt bows.

"And you must be Morgan. You should wear something more elegant than that." He gestures towards my torn and black outfit. Hey, I was brought into hell with no planning.

"Yes you should." Chamber walks out off the same room death did, except he is wearing his signature black leather jacket and bad boy look. I'm going to murder that son of a bitch.

"Chamber." Crypt snarls at him.

"Boys no fighting in front of our guest. Ari, get our guest into something more fitting." Death insists and Ari appears next to me.

"Hi." She smiles as she wraps her cloak around me. What in hell is going on? Once she took her cloak away from me I was in a white dress. It was form fitting and went right past my knees. The top was heart shaped as well.

Both of the boys looked at me with their jaws dropped. "Much better, you look like an angel." Death chuckles.

"Thank you and all, but I'm here for my heart. I can't handle the loneliness and the pain." I tell him as I look at Crypt and Chamber. They look so much a like.

"I know,but I thought I would lighten the mood before we got to that part." Death sighs. "Well the three of you better get to it." He starts to sit and a throne appears from below him. This plane is too cool.

"Alright sweetheart, what do I get if I give you your heart back?" Chamber asks leaning on the throne with one hand.

"You get to live." I glare at him."You know how I can absorb souls, I don't think you want to be part of that collection." I say to him with a fake sweetness in my voice.

"How about I get the honor of telling you a story." He smirks as he looks at Crypt.

"He's just being stupid, don't listen to him." Crypt panics.

"No, tell me this story." I insist. What could make Crypt on edge?

"It is a story of three reapers. The oldest being a girl, the second being a dark souls and the third being of pure heart. The oldest was of course adored by their father the most so the other two decided to play a game, to see how many hearts they can break. Then they came upon a girl that was as pure of heart as the youngest. The only problem was she fell in love with the wrong brother and he took her heart." Chamber says in a very patronizing tone. Where is he getting at.

"I get it, I'm the girl." I say with a heavy sigh.

"The only thing is that's not the end." He smirks ast Crypt.

"She doesn't need to know." Crypt says breathing hard. What is wrong with him?

"You see the youngest couldn't handle the fact that his brother stole the heart of his beloved, so he stayed with her and protected her as much as he could. What he didn't know was that he was hurting making her feel lonelier than ever. And now he's trying to help her get her heart back so she can love him." Chambers dark laugh echoes throughout the castle.

No, it can't be. Crypt he couldn't... Tears start to fall down my cheeks. "Please Morgan I didn't know that you were-" I slap his cheek with all the force I could.

"How dare you act like everything is fine! You are the reason I'm like this and you think you can just win me back. How dare you think that of me!" I snap before marching over to Chamber.

"Are you going to slap me too?" He laughs.

"No. Just give me my heart." I say to him. He sighs as he pushes off the throne. He touches the center of my chest. I feel warm almost as if alive. I feel my heart beat. I'm no longer heartless. A wave of six years of emotions hits me like a freight train.

"It's going to hurt for now, but you will be back to normal in a few." Ari tells me standing next to death who is walking towards me. Oh great, what is this for?

"It's time you returned back to earth." He tells me as I look into his black soulless eyes.

I see Crypt on the ground crying hard as he clutches his chest. Why does it hurt me so much to see that? "See you in the next life." I chuckle before Death closes my eyes.

{A two weeks later}

I stand there in front of the boys dorm building. I walk towards Pierce's room stumbling in my heels as I try to control my emotions. I'm almost there. I reach his door as I knock softly since I don't have the strength to do more.

It opens and Pierce looks at me, his eyes widening. "Morg!"

"Pie." I smile with tears in my eyes. I look at my best friend as the darkness start to consume me as I fall and pass out. I am no longer heartless.

*Hey so a few fun facts for all you.
The dress is based off the picture I have up there.
The song is 'My Heart is Broken.' By Evanesense.
And Ari will reappear in another story. I don't know which one yet, but I will announce it when I do.
And if you have any questions I am willing to answer anything you ask.
