Getting to the human world was easy enough but someone had to die in order for him to stay there. It was a condition that had to be met, the soul of the dead prevented him from being tethered back to the realm of the Shinigami world. There was no knowing what he would find that could change everything but something told him there was something. This might be due to the fact that his life depends on him killing people and he's been taking drugs to help for years now. We just never know.
He looked around. It was bright, colourful and full of life. "To think that I must take such beautiful life just to sustain my own worthless existence. And keep the balance of life and death."
But there was no point of thinking like that now. The only thing worse than his depressing life was the pain he'd face in hell if he didn't kill. To be a spawn of the devil, just to suffer by his hand.It was useless to just stand around being philisophical so he started moving. Just up ahead was a city, filled with people just waiting to die. Even though some thought that they might have meaning.
As Rokai floated through the air he came across a fruit stall. He noticed that one of them had fallen. Carefully enough that nobody saw he picked up the gleaming red fruit. The sign above the stand said 'Fresh Apples'. Compared to the apples of the shinigami realm it looked weird. Too colourful. He took a bite. And with that he was hooked. It was like taking cocaine for the god of death (I have no idea if that's accurate having never taken cocaine in my life). It was sweet and the juices flowed easily down his throat.
A noise was heard that echoed all around. A loud bang. Everyone was in a panic yet running towards it. He went in the direction everybody else was going out of curiosity. Blood was everywhere. And there was a body scattered in multiple areas with a man standing over it. A laugh of pure delight was coming from him, and his eyes were filled with a hunger which could never be satisfied.
"This is a person that deserves to die"
