the grim reaper

7

I have to rescue 15 people and so far I'm at two. This may take longer than what I thought it would but hey at least 15 less people die right? And since I'm still their test subject if I win and prove that we can rescue people rather than let them die i'll be thrilled. I really hope this is all worth it. Recently I've been thinking what would have happened if this technique of saving before reaping had been thought of years ago...around the time my mother died. Would that have changed my whole life? Would I have been a regular human like the people I see outside? I rub my temples, thinking makes my head hurt. Is that normal?

Today's victim is a six year old child, she's a victim of child abuse. It really disgusts me how people could even think of even verbally abusing a child, it's mind numbing knowing people actually putting their hands on them too. If I attack the sick people who even thought about laying their hands on a child just know it was for a good cause. 

On the bright side today's the day i get my first job, why you ask? Well the child abusers are her teachers. Even more disgusting right? Well here I am, signing up for caretaker.
The lady behind the desk had handed me a clipboard with questions.

Name: Tobias Millers
Age: 19
Why should you have this job?

Well i'm only here to save a girls life and ruin your reputation..

I love kids, I plan on having kids of my own and this would make great experience. I also find that me and kids have...a special bond. They just trust me and I love being trustable.

I return the clipboard and within 10 minutes they're calling me into an office. Principal Morgan, hmm?

"Congratulations Tobias, you've gotten the job!"

"Seriously?" that was quick, maybe even too quick.

"Of course! our previous caretaker quit so suddenly and we've been lacking of one these past few days, would you mind starting today?" the head teacher sounds hesitant about this lie. What did he do I wonder, kill her? kidnap her? did she know to much?

"No, no that's great!" I reply with fake excitement and he eyes me wearily. That's right, analysis who you're about to be messing with. This all happened so fast.

a child's p.o.v. *

Mommy dropped me off and I cried again, I try to tell her that there's cruel people here who beat us and get dizzy from those fancy drinks but she's too busy with Susan. I wish these parents weren't working so hard so they'd realize this private school was bad, very bad.
"Maybe the new caretaker could help!" I attempt to whisper in my best friends ear.

"Matilda shush." Mrs Berry was a mean teacher, she never let us speak and taught us hard work. She's in love with the head teacher, the one who slaps us when the teachers think we're bad. I have purple bruises but because mommy can't see because she's to busy to bathe me, she has the babysitter to do it. She says she doesn't know what to do and mommy ignores her.

"Hi!" a cute man walks in, me and my friends giggle and he smiles with us, "I'm Toby, the new caretaker."

"Oh, I wasn't expecting you, i'm Mrs Berry. This is the class...Matilda! How about you show him around?" the teacher was acting nice, did she find Toby cute too?

"Sure" i twirl my hair like the girl in mommy's chic flick and smile. My best friend kicks my leg, why is she jealous? we could always share.

"Oh, charming" he smirks as he walks towards me. "So, where do we start?"

"Easy! The toilets in case you need to go!" how do you not know that the first place you go is the 'restroom' as mommy calls it. He laughs and I lead the way to the toilets. "We know this is for boys because of the sign! He's not wearing a dress, sadly."

"Oh yes that's very sad....Matilda can i ask you something?"

"Of course!" are we going to get married now?

"Do you get...hit here? I could help you you just need to tell me."

Of course I get hit, doesn't every over child at school? "Yeah, the head teacher hits us when he drinks that fancy drink that makes you dizzy. it's alright though because he gives me lollipops the very next day! Now I have a question, his wife is Mrs Berry, do you think we could be like that?"

"Well, I don't know about that. Tell me more about these teachers."

"Well.."

It's now lunch and from what Matilda told me, I'm too sick to the stomach to eat. I've been contemplating whether i should let the police handle this but I can't, it's my job so i must do it.

I'm currently sat in front of the head teachers door, all through out the day my senses have been telling me that at this time-- I hear a child screaming.

It sounds like Matilda.

"Hey" I barge through the door to see the head teachers hands around Matilda's little neck.

"You! What do you think you're doing!" Mrs Berry attempts to restrain me from behind with rope but I free myself by throwing my head back into hers. I don't hesitate in lunging for the head teacher, swinging straight for his jaw. Matilda falls onto the chair and screams whilst Mrs Berry curses at me for making her nose bleed.

Before I could do any more harm police sirens swarm the playground and I escort Matilda into a class along with many other screaming children. "I can't stay, I can't be caught on TV again. Just tell the police man what they did to you for yours and your friends safety." 

I couldn't be caught on TV again, it'll raise suspicion and with the attention it'd bring me, I wouldn't be able to complete my goal. 

I didn't proof read I just pressed publish in hopes that you all dont hate me with my lack of posting <3
