Richard Mors, probably the only 13 year old grim reaper. but to be honest i don't think any of that matters,because Leo, my only family, is now dead. but for leo i'm now going to go and rip Death's soul to shreds, and save this world while i'm at it...except one problem, as much as i've tried' I can't use the weird powers. so, i have to do something about that. right now i'm hiding out in a small cave somewhere in the countryside a couple miles from the city. I mean after i killed that Thing...well now they fear me, so i just asked a demon,somewhat nicely, what was going on, it hissed at me, so I socked him in the jaw leaving a burning ring print on It's jaw. it talked rather quickly after that. well, it said-well more hissed, "we were supposed to be unopposed! You killed Private Mephistopheles!" It then leapt at me i sidestepped and grabbed its arm, using its momentum to pull the arm out of socket. "now, why did you have to pull a stunt like that?" i asked in a dangerous tone. i was ticked by this point, i just wanted info and this guy attacks me! so, i said "one last chance, what are you demons doing here!?" but before he could answer he erupted in a bout of hellfire. as i sat there just stunned by the fact that they killed their own, just to keep info out of my hands. This was getting to be to much and i had apparently killed someone important so i had to get to safety seeing as i had no way to defend myself except the power i had no clue how to use or even summon. so i ran to the cave in the countryside that i found. it seems safe for now, but i need to do something, but that brings us to where we are now. in a cave middle of nowhere and no idea what the heck i'm even going to do about this whole thing. and also-suddenly a crunching of someone-or something walking on rocks. I pick up a sharp edged rock and prepared to hit whatever it was across it's ugly mug, i shouted out "on my life, hit you across your ugly mug you demon!"and at that moment i heard a voice of a girl say "who the hell you callin ugly?!" i lowered my guard a bit by the surprise girl. big mistake, next thing i know a foot comes shooting into the cave in the form of a jump kick,which hits me in the gut. when i finally get the power to look up, there's an angel standing above me. she had dark brown hair with a red streak down the right side. she had intense purple eyes which seemed to look right to your very soul. funny i should say that considering my eyes actually do. while i was looking at her with a extremely dumb look on my face, she says "wipe that stupid grin off your face before i do it for ya, also look at me like that ever again I will kick ya where it hurts!". that snapped me out of it. i got up slowly, " who are you and how are you still alive?" I ask cautiously. she looks at me as if i was some gum she ha underneath her shoe and replied "like i would tell you anything! also i'm the one asking questions here not you." I replied with a cocky voice " what makes you one up on me? and why should i answer your questions?" as a response i got a roundhouse kick to the left cheek which floored me. i look at her " i answer your questions then you answer mine a good deal?" I got another kick except to the right cheek this time. i gave in "alright, my name is Richard Mors and i survived because i took a scythe that appeared out of my ring and i reaped their souls." she laughed " like i'm gonna believe that!" well i was mad by this point, so i stood up as my eyes turned red, which scared her and made her get in a fighting stance of some martial arts. I touched my ring and a scythe appeared. " you have two options right now. answer all my questions, or have your soul forever reaped." next thing i know my scythe was kicked across the cave and i got three rapid punches to the face and she swept me off my feet and midair she uppercutted me. i groan then i grab her foot and pull it out from under her, then i jumped up and picked up my scythe "i'm going to have to reap your soul now..." but the look on her face was the look of a person who has accepted their fate, it was a look of soul-quivering sadness. i set down my scythe and sat down across the cave, "i'm not going to kill you. who the heck are you, there's no way you're human though. that speed of yours...well, my plan is to save the world and bring it back to its former glory. will you help me?" i ask, as i hold my hand out to help her up. she takes my hand "heck ya"
