Seven Phantom Ghosts: Book 1

Chapter Five

 Hatake School of Excellence - December 10th - 1524

   Everyone stood in silence after finding out that the apparent other member of their group was actually the same person they were looking for. Reaper looked at the others, and sighed. He went over to his bike and opened up a storage compartment and pulled out his tonfas and extended both of them into his scythes. He was going to try and spare some of them, but he forgot something after being in this school with Alison, and that's the fact that he was a killer, and that was the only thing he was really good at was killing. After all, according to the students at school: His organization was nothing but terrorists, so it was time to terrorize.

    Snub-nose comes out from the school and saw Reaper, Nightmare and Shadow going back in, "Hey, wait what happened? Where are you going?"

    "Getting a body count." Reaper spoke in almost a whisper as he passed by and his eyes were beginning to gloss over from his blood loss, but he still had enough life in them to show that he was wanting blood right now. He went back into the school and ascended up the stairs and was spinning and twirling his scythe, gaining his momentum and the moment the first student approached him, he swung his scythe at full speed, severing their head, torso and hands in one swing. He looked back down the hallway and saw that all of students had their own weapons this time and were trying to act like they were ready for him, but he had killed military figureheads before coming here, so he knew that these kids were going to die. Every.Single.Fucking.One. He could only grin under his mask, and began to spin his scythe again.

    Snub-nose quickly ran up the stairs and found nothing but bodies with severed limbs all over the floor. He followed the bodies, and found Reaper leaning up against a wall in one of the classroom, and was coughing excessively. He went up and saw that it had gotten to the point where he had to take of his mask to get enough air in his lungs. Blood was covering some of the wall that he was up against. He looked over and saw that one of the kids was still conscious enough. He picked the kid up, "Tell me and my friend here what you know where the girl is and we may be kind enough to not throw the rest of your ass out the window wearing nothing more those blinds," pointing at the blinds attached to one of the windows."

    The kid only chuckled at the threat, "You think you can scare me with your idle threats? You don't know who I am and what my life has been through to know what it takes to threaten me, to get to my core. Go for it, throw me out the window, because I won't tell you anything."

    "Oh Really? You actually wish to test me on my intimidation skills? Ok, fine." He took the kid and dangled him out the window and slowly began to loosen his grip.

    The kid began to get worried, "Wait, what are you doing? You said you were going to use the blinds."

    "I thought I couldn't scare you?"

    "I lied, ok! There's clearly a difference when you're being dangled out a window."

    "Then tell me what we want to know." He loosened his grip some more and now he knew that the kid was scared when he started flailing and trying to grab his arm to keep from falling.

    "Fine. Fine, God damn it. I'll tell you! She's in the gym on the fourth floor! She's on the fourth floor, now let me back in."

    "No." Reaper had come up from behind Snub-nose and used one of his throwing knives to cut the bit of fabric that snub-nose was holding, causing the kid to fall from a two-story window.

    Snub-Nose looked at Reaper and lit up a cigar, "You stole my fucking kill!"

    "Deal with it." Reaper had a light wheeze as he inhaled, indicating that his injuries were finally taking a turn for the worse, "Now that we know where they have taken her, that only means that we're that much closer to ending this." He turns around and puts his mask back on and walks slowly out of the room.
