Death's a Bitch REPLACEMENT

Chapter One: Death

*Remember its 20 years in advance to the first book*

~ Unknown point of view (males)~

"You're what?" My sister snapped at me through the phone

"I won't be able to make it to dinner" I replied

"Are you kidding me" she sounded pissed "I can only get this family together a few times every year and you are already bailing on me"

"I'll come to the next one I'm sorry, it's important"

"Are you fighting again?"

"No of course not" I lied

"You know you can come to me if you need money, I don't mind, it can even be a loan since you hate that kind of thing"

"I have to go"

"Okay, I love you, next dinner okay"

"I love you too, and I promise"

"Good"

And with that I hung up slipping my phone into the pocket of my jeans. I had to get ready quickly I had a fight at seven, guaranteed ten grand, twenty if you win; I would be stupid to pass it up, especially with my skill.

~~~~

"Right boy, you can do this, he has strength in his arms but his legs are shit, keep arms distance away and hit him with all you got, last 5 rounds and you have twenty grand"

"Thanks Charlie" I said eyeing up the other guy, he was taller than me and I was fairly tall, he was massive. I had muscle, and a decent amount but nothing compared to him. I only had to last 5 rounds. 5 rounds and I had twenty, even if I didn't I still had ten there.

"Opponents step into the ring"

I stood up and shook out my shoulders taking a quick swig from my drink bottle before putting my mouth guard in.

I zooned out of the guy's introduction of both of us, thinking of ways I would get him; being that much smaller than him I could easily wind him. But that means getting in close.

The bell snapped me out of my state.

He approached me quickly and tried to swing a hook at me; I instantly bobbed and weaved hitting him with a counter hook of my own. I threw I kick in his direction but he blocked it throwing me off balance, I stumbled around regaining myself but I was a second to slow to block his blow, everything went fuzzy for a few moments but I regained myself, stepping out of the way of another blow. We continued to fight for what felt like forever until the bell rung.

My chugged down half of my water while resting against the ropes.

"You're doing well boy, no one ever hits him the way you did"

I continued to drink my drink saying nothing; he seemed way too supportive of this.

The bell went for the second round was the same; I was only able to lay a couple of punches and kicks between the blocking I did. I could feel it taking a toll on me, next round I would attack more.

The bell rung again and this time I didn't wait, I moved my way over to him, blocking his first attack and slamming a kick into his ribs. I changed up my attacks so he couldn't memorise and counter off me. Before I knew it the bell was ringing to signify the end of the round. I spun around walking to my corner when suddenly I was punched around the head. The referee managed to control the other guy before he could lay anymore hits into me. I rolled over onto my back, my vision blurred and my head spinning. Charlie was beside me talking away but I was focused on a female in the distance, I felt like I knew her.

Eventually my head came right and I wasn't seeing double.

"I'm fine Charlie" I said sitting up "I can still fight"

"You just took a massive blow to the head"

"And I said I can still fight" I snapped

The referee called the crowd's attention saying that I was going to fight the fourth round, they all cheered. The other guy didn't look happy at all.

I got a few moments to ready myself up as he did the same, I kept finding myself drawn to the crowd to where the female was standing but she wasn't there. It almost felt as if she was but she was nowhere to be seen.

We readied ourselves for round four. The bell rung and he came to me this time, he look angry. My reactions were slower but so was he, he was tired. I was going in for an attack when I saw something catch the light in his hand before I could react I felt a burning hot streak across my neck. I stood back my hands to my throat watching the blood fall to the ground and I soon followed. I lay on my back unable to breathe choking on my own blood. There she was again in her full beauty just outside of the ring watching me with a confused look upon her perfect face. Charlie was beside me, talking away in my ear but everything fazed away I couldn't hear anything it was all muffed my sight was nearly gone burred completely and clouding over with black spots until eventually it was still completely gone. As I lay there in darkness I was suddenly brought back. Light blinded my eyes as I sat up looking at everyone frozen around me, all except one.
Her. Now that I could see her properly it suddenly all fell into place.

"What's happening?" I asked. I didn't want to piss her off.

"You have passed away, and you have been given a second chance at doing something for the world, you have a chance to become an angel" she said her voice smooth and kind. Wait is it her?

"Kind? I thought you didn't do kind" I said

A look of confusion crossed her face but she quickly hid it.

"Come with me, I shall walk you through to your new life" she said holding out a hand

I held her hand and we walked through a white portal. I ignored the odd feeling I gained. It was a tunnel of my life, all my main important events that happened in my life; from my childhood through my teenage years.

"Can you see any of this?" I said ashamed, I'm not proud of my past the things I did to see her and now that's she here I don't want to go.

"No" she said softly "this is your life you see what is important to you. I see my past life" her head hung low just focusing on our held hands obviously not liking what she saw.

My very last memory was the phone call to my sister, where I promised her to be at the next family dinner. I suppose I can't do it now.

We exited the tunnel and entered on a marble floor. I could see my reflection in it, the massive gash on my neck was still there; wide open but no blood.

"Head up" she said lowly beside me. I hadn't even noticed that she let go of my hand. I lifted my head and saw a bunch of older men sitting up high on massive thrones.

"Thank you Amitiel, we will request you if we need you" one of the old men said

Okay so the name is Amitiel. It can't be her. That wasn't her name.

She was gone in a puff of black mist and I was left standing in from of them.

"Son" they said in a power voice "we have brought you here because we see potential in you. We wish to give you a new life, as an angel. Now we don't know if you have been gifted with a power but we have seen your ability to fight. And we want you to be a royal guard"

"No" I said bluntly

"No?" they questioned

"I want to be the grim reaper"
