Stranger

Chapter 4

The reaper disipated before me as I heard what sounded like the crack of a bull whip. There was a wepon in his hand, a shortsword with three bumps on the blade which, as I looked closer, wasn't very sharp at all. It had holes that aligned with the bumps on the inside. After a second he had finally noticed me. He gave me a look then evaporated his weapon, which seemed to be made out of water, and went into a little container on his neck. He started toward me and I struggled to get up. I got one foot grounded but instantly fell back down. He unwraped the scarf from his right arm which showed a scar on the back of his wrist. Braise had finally made it to me and without warning, put his scarf on my wound. I had let out a faint "thanks" and he nodded. He was silent as he took the blue rag off of my wound. I looked at it and it had healed completely. He looked around, before his eyes had stopped on a water fountain. He pointed his hand at it then raised it, water soon flowed infront of my face and formed the words "stay here." He sent the water back and went around the corner I had come from. "Braise had to have seen that I had a weapon so why would he help me?" I looked around for my scythe and as I had thought, it was gone, dissapated into the wind when it had been seperated from me. Of couse I could bring it back at any moment. Braise came back around the corner with widened eyes and shortened pupils running at lightning speed, he picked me up in a bubble of water from the fountain, and I was pulled with him. I was nothing but a feather to Braise. I looked behind me and saw why we were running. A hoard of reapers were behind us.
