"Excuse me?" Martha said hesitantly
"What are you doing?" She then added
'Death' stood there silently.
Aiming the gun at their dog still.
"My job" Death replied emotionless
Before Martha could even say anything Carl quickly replied, idiotically.
"Oh? Oh? Your job? We're sorry, carry on then!" Carl said sarcastically
Martha looked at him as if she was scolding him, she was annoyed that he could give up that easily, and take the 'cowards way out'.
Carl hastily added "Sorry Ringo!"
He looked down to the dog, and then looked up to 'Death' and said:
"All in a days work am I right?"
At this point Martha was extremely annoyed with Carl.
He grabbed her hand and tugged it a bit, as if he wanted her to follow him.
"Come on Martha!" Carl let go of her hand and turned around ready to walk off.
"Whos earlier music?" Death asked
Martha was still stood there completely silently, she still in shock.
Carl sighed and slowly turned around to face 'Death'.
Death was still looking at the dog, that was just sitting there looking at her innocently.
"Uhm...the Beatles earlier music...she likes their earlier music but I like their later music" Carl said nervously
"Are you fan?" Carl asked
"I've never heard of them" replied 'Death'
"Seriously?" Carl questioned
"I've never really listened to to any music" 'Death' shrugged
"Oh uhm...well uhm I'd definitely recommend it..." Carl said awkwardly
While he was thinking of something to say, Martha spoke up.
"Listen..." She said calmly
"You don't have to do this."
"Don't I?" Death asked
"No..Of course not..." Martha replied
"Just put the gun down..."
