Fate

Kruel Fate

The girl screamed at my appearance, I knew I wasnt the most handsome non-binary person, but it hurt.

I put my hand over her mouth, our eyes meeting in an intense gaze. Good shes distracted I thought, because I swear to God if she bites or licks my hand, I will end up being the person who screams.

I attempted empathy, trying to put myself in her situation. She does only have two options after all.

Hello, my name is Kruel Fate, but you can just call me Kruel. I smiled, slowly pulling my hand from her mouth.

O- Okay?

Oh no. Shes confused, Goddammit! That means explanations- and explanations take hours, and I dont have hours! I panicked to myself.

I tried a kind smile, the kind they do in anime. Where when the larger your mouth becomes the smaller your eyes go. Squinting, squinting, sqiunting, and pop! Your eyes have vanished.

My job is to collect human souls at certain points of their life and give them two choices to choose from, and afterwards they forget and live out their life until by lovely genderless boyfriend- you know him as Death- takes your souls away never to be seen again. I thought I was speaking facts, but apparently not.

What?! She panicked, What do you mean human souls? And your name, your the Fate?

Enough about me! I said cheerfully completely ignoring her questions, and spawning a grande Vanilla Bean Frappuccino in front of her. Maybe this will keep her quiet, as long as she doesnt get annoying with sucking sounds. Or I might not give her two choices. Why dont you tell me your name?

I- Its Amelia, and how do you not know my name? Your supposed to be Fate right? Then if im mak-

Honey, if I knew every name of every person whos life Ive jacked up then I would be God. I sighed, geez this girl knows how to run her mouth. Now youve got two choices Belia-

Its Amelia.

Okay, Celia.

I told you Amelia.

I stared at her, and put my arms around her shoulders in exasperation.

Fine. Amelia, I put my hand to my forehead in exasperation,You have pretty much one bad choice, and one good. The first is that sweet Death can spirit you away, I said tempted to reference Ghibli Films. Anime is absolutely beautiful. Or you can become my servant for all of eternity.

And which one is good? I stared at her in disbelief, my jaw dropping.

Obviously choosing to be my servant! Think of all the fun we could have choosing ridiculous choices for people- I even have this idea of doing something similar to Death Parade.

How is me becoming your servant good?!

Well, you died in the Human Realm, so your only choice is really Death but I got to you first, oh how Ive been wanting to cosplay Quindecim!

I dont want to be part of your creepy pervert fantasies! What is that anyway, some weird KPop band?

Thats it, Im putting in a word to have this girl sent to Hell.
