The Reaper

Chapter 19: Poison

Jeremy POV 

"So Galina?" Said Shuri in a suggestive voice whilst sliding up to stand next to me on the jet as I poured myself a drink. "Eh?" She pushed nudging me with her elbow as she said it. 

"Yes" I Said looking at her with a look that said to leave it alone, but Shuri being Shuri can't leave anything alone as she continued to nudge me. "What do you want me to say?" I asked her annoyed. 

"Well tell us who she is" she prompted before sitting beside her brother on the seats in the plane as I stood looking at the window. 

"She came to the red room just before I left, she was 16 at the time, she was like a sister to me..."

-FLASHBACK- 

"Жнец, начните тренировку Галины" (Reaper, start Galina's training) said the instructor. I nodded as the girl came into the room. She didn't seem scared which I thought was stupid, did she not know where she was?

"You" I Said to the girl hoping she spoke English, checking by speaking it. When she looked up seemingly eager to learn or whatever I carried on. "On the Mat" I Said and she came to stand in front of me. "Get into a fighting stance" I Said and she seemed confused. "Put your weaker leg infront and your dominant one behind that, angle your body, good now hold up your fists, good" I Said as she did as I told her. She better learn fast. 

"What do I do now?" She asked in an eager voice with a smile on her face, like she was proud of herself. 

"Try keep up" I said as I moved infront of her. She seemed confused before I got into my own fighting stance and you could see the panic in her eyes grow. She opened her mouth to speak but I moved my leg forward hooking behind her front leg and pulling her sending her off balance. "First lesson don't lose focus" I said as I gave her a moment to correct herself. 

"How's this suppose to help?" She asked incredulously after a few hours of me going easy on her whilst giving her pointers. "I mean I've just had the shit kicked out of me for no reason" she said throwing her arms into the arm. 

Growling in annoyance under my breath I kicked my leg out and she jumped back. I  continued to attack her throwing kicks and punches and she dodged more of them than she did at the beginning but not nearly enough. 

"Oh how helpful can't wait for the next lesson" she shouted as I left the training room, not looking back. "Ass"

-PRESENT-

"So pretty much you hated each other because she Questioned you?" Asked Shuri and I shook my head. "So why did you hate each other?" 

"We didn't" I Said and began to look out the window again. "Not until the end anyway...."

-FLASHBACK- 

"So R, what do you have planned for today?" Asked the bubbly girl as she entered the room that had been set aside for her training. She was never in a class, this was the only training she got and after the first session I was told she only needed to learn the basics, just self defence, not how to kill anyone or any other training usually received. 

"Nothing much, going over stuff" I Said before she started practicing moved I'd shown her. And one of the directors came to watch her and smiled. "Straighten your leg" I said when it was  bent when she got into stance. "Get out of the hold" I Said and pulled her up straight her grabbing her elbows to hold her back. 

"не обращайся с моей племянницей так, помни свое место" (do not handle my niece like that, remember your place) Said the director and I let go of his niece and looked down nodding before looking up again. His niece seemed confused and decided to voice her opinion. 

"не разговаривай с ним, как этот дядя, пожалуйста" (don't speak to him like that Uncle, please) she said and her uncles eyes snapped towards his niece. "игнорировать моего дядю R, иногда он может быть позволен быть губернатором идти ему на голову" (ignore my uncle R, sometimes he can be let being a Governor go to his head) she said before she got into a fighting stance raising a challenging eyebrow. I turned to her but one glance in her uncles direction and seeing his displeased face made me stop. 

"I've taught you everything I've been told to, you can go now" I told her before I exited the training room, purposefully bumping into her uncles shoulder as I passed him. 

-PRESENT- 

"So?" Prompted T'Challa And I raised an eyebrow. "Did you not speak to her afterwards?" 

"No I left the Red Room that night and a week later Russia all together" I said to the siblings as we got to the Russian airport. "If someone is there waiting Don't expect me not to kill them" I Said to the siblings as the planes door opened. 

"Longtime no see Reaper, time for you to return home"
