Crimson Curse (Afterdeath story)

Strike two

(Reapers pov)

"More paper work?" i asked raising a non exsistant Eyebrow at the police captain he shrugged "I need a word with you Reaper." secretly rolling my eye light i followed grudgingly "What do you want?" 

"Less attitude please, reaper we are adults not teenagers. I asked you to talk with me because you still haven't found that suspect." I rolled my eye light again crossing my arms "Well it would be easier if your people actually found leads that matter??" "Look Reaper i hired you because your supposed to be the best and your not showing me that you are." I went to say something but he cut me off "Reaper Your on strike two one more strike and i will not hesitate to remove you from the job."

I gave him a long look holding his gaze until he broke it "Reaper we are running out of time before we have to move on to more serious matters such as attacks to the public" "But this is a attack to the public-" "More Important attacks,Reaper do you ever listen?" I bit my tong trying to bite back a snarky reply. "If i dont have the suspects Bloody head in my office By two weeks your off the case!." I nodded leaving the office grumbling remarks.

(TIME SKIP because the author is lazy)

"Hey Reaper over hear!" i walked over to the table Geno was waiting at Sunday came quicker then i expected though im grateful im definitely in need of a break.Sitting down Reaper grinned at me "Thought u wouldn't make it" I laughed "and miss Seeing you not a chance~"  I watched a blush spread on his cheeks before he covered his face quickly in his scarf This made me laugh harder.

Once he recovered We made small talk, Until the waiter came over "What can i get you gentlemen tonight?" I looked at geno urging him to go first "Oh!,Uh Ill get.... 

after ordering we waited patiently Geno was glancing around the restaurant "So geno," He turned his attention back to me "I bet your brothers wernt to thrilled for you to go out tonight."geno laughed "yeah defiantly not i litterly had to forcefully make my way to outside." I laughed Looking up back at Geno he looked like he had seen a ghost i looked behind me trying to see what made him so dead silent but there was nothing out of the ordinary. looking back at Geno he slowly stood up "Um Please excuse me I have to go." I gave a confused look "Already? are you alright?" He started walking mumbling something about having to talk with someone.  Placing down money on the table i threw my coat over my shoulder, Realizing geno Forgot his coat so i begun Rushing after him.

I glanced around the bustling street Trying to catch a glance of him,Bingo. I saw the flutter of his red scarf enter a crowd I jogged after him pushing through crowd i manged to catch up Grabbing on to his arm he yelped and fell backwards I felt the stares of people boring in to me Geno met my eyes and gave a confused look "Reaper wha-" his gaze traveled down to his coat before he laughed nervously "Oh silly me" he rubbed the back of his neck nervously I pulled him up and handed him his coat. 

"Are you okay you seem tense" i asked Geno paused before replying quickly "No no dont worry sorry i just remembered i have to do something"  "Oh" i said shoving my hands in my pocket not really knowing what to do with them. "but hey maybe we can do this again sometime?" he asked hopefully "maybe some time this week even?" I shook my head "I uh really cant, Im sorry just super busy this week," remembering im on my last strike "oh.." geno said looking at the ground breaking the silence i spoke "Well i uh better let you get to what ever you where doing" he nodded "Cya" i turned away walking in the oposit direction even though i was supposed to be going where he was going But i would rather avoid that awkwardness plus i need  walk.

"HEY YOU?" i looked at who yelled so loudly, Well this is surprising there yelling at me? "Yes?" i asked nonchalantly trying not to show that i was intimidated. This stocky monster was a good amount taller then me.When he neared me i could smell the strong scent of alcohol on his breath so he is obviously drunk. he swayed slightly on his feet. I backed up slightly unvoluntarily entering a staring contest with this large man. "Your the guy at the bar last night huh?" i gave a confused look "Um no i never went to a bar-" "That means your the guy who stole my girl" He shoved me roughly on the shoulder,i backed up again if this guy tries to fight me no matter how well i can fight theirs no way i could win against him. i just kept shaking my head trying to insist hes got me mixed up with another guy.

How ever i backed up against some one jumping forward i looked who i ran in to Another same built guy was behind me with the same angry look. Before i can make a run for it both lunged at me one grabbing my arms while the other threw punches I couldn't do anything but struggle calling for help.

But no body came.
