Deaths Apprentice

Lesson 2

"is this my house?" Bobbie asked. "yes" Death responded. "why are we here?" Bobbie asked looking puzzled. "there is someone who doesn't want to leave earth" Death said walking into bobbies house. Bobbie chased after her and saw a guy she's never seen before and her aunt yelling at this guy. "I AM NOT DEAD NOR AM I COMING WITH YOU!" she yelled. "Hey, relax. He is one of my reapers and I am death. I am here to tell you its your time. We wont force you to come but if you don't, you will get stuck in the void for who knows how long." Death asked. "I must be dreaming or drank too much. Hallucinations" Bobbies aunt said. "hey" Bobbie said butting in "Bobbie no" Death started but there was no stopping her. "aunt Marissa, its me. Really me. Its okay. You'll get to see uncle Roy and grandma wells" Bobbie said soothingly. "what" Marissa whispered. "its okay" Bobbie whispered. Marissa scrambled up. The reaper grabbed Aunt Marissa's hand and took her up to heaven. "not bad. This is a good example for, Lesson #2, you can not be soft on people. It may be sad, but being soft or sparing someone could cause major problems" Death said and teleported Bobbie and her reaper to the headquarters. "this is the soul collection office as they call it" death said. Bobbie was brought to a huge room that looked like it never ended. There were millions of computer screens each with a reaper watching. There was two lines full or transparent people waiting for something. There were desks on the floor, like an office building, with angles, demons, and reapers sitting and working. "what is this" Bobbie asked taking it all in. "the computers show peoples lives. The reapers watch them and wait until the person dies. This way they know exactly where they die. The lines are souls wanting to become a reaper. The desks are the angles, reapers, and demons doing their paper work. Yes paperwork. Don't worry you don't have to do any. They have to file who they took, where there going, what's happening to them and how they died." Death said. There was a dark corner in the room about the size of a car. "what's that" Bobbie said pointing to the corner. "that's the purgatory section. Only the experienced and skilled reapers deal with that. I don't even go there." Death said shuddering then asked. "Hell or heaven first?" "neither. It thought, since I died, I didn't get hungry any more?" Bobbie asked. "your technically dead but you also death who isn't dead so will eat first then heaven or hell" Death replied. "Hell. Can I meet Lucifer?" Bobbie asked. "No" Death responded. "Ugh, your no fun". Bobbie sulked.
