M: NOO!
Marcus jerks up from his sleep as he wakes from the ever returning nightmare he breathes heavily as he tries to catch his breath he looks around seeing the layout of his room calming him greatly as he lays back staring at the ceiling trying to remove the memory of the nightmare from his mind, failing at this he gets up and puts on tee and shorts as he walks to the kitchen and gets a glass a water.
D: Hey man.
M: holy shit!
D: chill man its just me.
M: Jesus Death why you have to scare me like that!
D: Sorry I was just waiting for you to get up.
M: Wait how did you even get in?
D: I am a deity who can cause the pain and suffering of thousands i can take the light from anyone's body.
M: you used the spare key didn't you?
D: Yeah it was in the fake rock next to your door.
M: ughhh I really need to get rid of that.
D: why scared I'm going to see you in the shower?
By the way death is girl forgot to mention that bork.
M: I swear to god if that was you.
D: what you going to do? Kill me?
M: The sarcasm is strong with this one.
D: You don't say.
M: Anyway what is it you want?
D: oh right there's been some weird shit going on in the cosmos.
M: yeah its the cosmos it does that.
D: you don't understand what i mean.
M: what do you mean?
D: A lot of stuff been dying but I'm not getting the energy.
M: What how is that even possible?
D: well i know of a couple of relics that can store the energy of the dead but nothing on this scale I'm talking a couple million beings dying and their just disappearing.
M: Well what am i supposed to do?
D: I know you and I know you can save energy from dead beings so you like me can understand what this could mean.
M: It means that something big could be on the horizon, have you talked to the others?
D: Of course I have I talked to everyone but chuck Norris, and we both know he's good.
M: Do you think it could be another?
D: No it couldn't be we all stoped happening after what you............ what He did.
M: You know I'm not him out of all of the others you know I'm not whatever HE was I'm something different.
D: I'm sorry i brought it up.
M: Don't be its fine, plus i like the look of caring on your face.
D: I bet you do........
A quiet silence follows as they both look at each other they draw near as their hand join and they're faces draw close both felling the others breath as they brush lips just for a moment as they pull apart smiling.
M: Well for being death you blush really hard.
D: I Do not! Also when talking to a upper being don't insult them.
M: you aren't more than me and plus i know you r really a softy deep down.
A portal sudden opens as jeoff emerges with a group of random people carrying cameras and taking pictures.
J: Now here we see a passionate moment between Marcus and Death as they have a small moment teetering on the edge of a real relationship.
M: Jeoff what the fuck are you doing?
J: Oh yeah sorry man the book in alternate dimensions is taking off I'm showing some fans around.
D: I really want to kill you.
J: yeah yeah remember you already did and of corse it didn't work.
D: I still don't know how the fuck you still keep coming back.
J: I don't either but like most things just don't think about it, Anyway if you all follow me through the next portal we will go pay Alan and May a visit, do be warned cringes may follow.
Jeoff shoots a portal on the ground as he leads the tour group into the portal leaving the room with just Marcus and death.
D: so what the hell was that?
M: It was jeoff so best just say who knows also you killed jeoff before?
D: yeah he came when I first formed and I touched him and he turned into dust then he just came back.
M: How?
D: I don't know, so you ready to go and find out what the fuck is going on?
M: well I Don't have anything batter to do so sure.
D: okay then hold on tight.
Death chanted words long forgotten as a dark veil of thick smoke covered them and then disappeared as they were no longer in Marcus's house.
M: Where are we?
D: the first place I felt the no energy.
M: look at this place its all gone, its not even dead its all just gone.
D: When i take beings i leave part of their energy to be spread but here there is...
M: Nothing, what happened here it looks vaporized, there isn't even bacteria the whole planet is dead?
D: I Don't know what could have done this none of the other beings have this power.
M: HE did, He had the power to do this.
D: but he's gone after he made the final creation.
M: Did he ever have nightmares?
D: HE was a Strange man and he had many flaws
M: Did HE have nightmares?!
D: Yes he did but only towards the end.
M: ..... Were there any others like HE was?
D: No your the only other who could do anything like this.
M: Wait do you feel that?
D: Another loss?
M: take us there now!
The dark smoke reappeared as they both travel to the massive loss of life happening they come out of the smoke to see all the people of the alien planet running away screaming, it was a black veil that was eating everything and everyone.
M: What the fuck is that?!
D: I don't know but its heading straight for us you ready?
M: Lest see what the hell this thing is.
As the dark veil came it surround them leaving them in a world of pure light unable to see anything.
M: Who's there!? Why are you doing this?!
?: HELLO LOST CHILDREN WHAT IS IT THAT YOU SEEK?
D: We seek that which has been stealing life from the cosmos.
