Regardless of a trap or not, I waited by the window until the streets became clear so I can leave. The traitor is right about not being able to get anywhere without them being able to get me. The town is a free roaming cage where I'll have to sneak around in.

I walked down rugged and tatter steps that lead into the main floor of this parlor. It was even darker than the room upstairs but, most importantly, the reaper wasn't in here. Or he wasn't in the open at least. I made my way around the coffins to look out the windows. Not a human in sight. I crack the door a little to peak my head out to see down the street. Still no humans.

"Going somewhere, little one?" The raspy voice called from behind.

I closed the door a little but kept my hand on the knob, "You said I can leave, didn't you? I'm a flightless bird now so you can capture me with no problem, remember?"

He laughed a little darker then usual, "It was easy to capture you even when you were a soaring bird. Don't you remember how I brought you here?" He walked over to what appears to be a closet door next to his desk and opened it. Digging through the sea of black, he pulled out a coat that looks like a shorten version of a trench coat, "This should suite your height nicely."

"It's black." I called.

"Sorry, little one, but this is the only color I have in me shop. Nothing pure or innocent ever enters this place therefore, there is no white." He unbuttoned it on the hanger, then took it off of the hanger, and came up to me, "Arm." He ordered. I took my hand off the knob and extended my arm so he can slip the sleeve on. He helped put the other sleeve on and began to button it.

"No white? Then where did you find this white dress that you gave me?" I called him out on his lie.

"Oh, the dress I gave you for a change of clothes? You don't remember?" He finished buttoning the coat and stood up straight with a knowing smile.

"Remember what?" I'm sick and tried of memories.

"That dress is your funeral dress. Well, not entirely. This was the dress that was used for your wake, you were buried in another."

"You damned reaper! It's no wonder the heavens are forcing you to work for eternity, they already know would be going to hell if you're forgiven!" I pushed my way through the door but a hand forcefully grabbed my left arm and pulled me back.

Undertaker's eyes were revealed. They are unlike the ordinary darker green with a gold center reaper eyes, they were a bright green with yellow blending into the green.

They were intense to the point where if you stared at the long enough they will show their true intentions.

"You think I'm forced to work for eternity?" His voice was slow and every word was sharp, "Dearie, I found my profession as a reaper. I don't have to be with angels in heaven or demons in hell, I can be with both of them in the same world working with them. Just like what I'm doing now, I'm working with a demon to keep you as a hostage." He released my arm, "Now go have fun in your free roaming cage."

I burst through the door and left the parlor before I could get grabbed again. Looking towards the sky, I can see the sun is not yet at noon point but at 9 or 10 o'clock. The portal reopens tonight unless Will is working on opening it now.

Please, Will. Open it and get me.

I'm already thinking that I may not get out of this alive. I have no idea what that demon and reaper are planning. I want to know, but if I figure it out it may be too late.
