Saul tried to pick up the pace a little bit as he flung open the front doors of the school. He avoided looking at his watch as he headed to Stan's car. "Mr. Beelz! Wait!" he suddenly heard behind him and saw Mr. Vanover busting through the doors after them.
He was red in the face and sweaty from trying to catch up with them. Saul looked down at his watch. 2:45pm October 20th. Mr. Vanover took a few steps towards them, just about to apologize from Ms. Hewetts behavior. But suddenly something was wrong. His left arm felt limp. He couldn't catch his breath. The doctors had warned him about this. He should have listened. Ate more vegetables than potato chips. No wonder Kathy had left him. He never listened to anyone. Suddenly all those thoughts were replaced with the searing pain in his chest. Mr. Vanover let out a few long gasps but as soon as it had started it was over.
Saul was in shock. He knew this was going to happen, but of course there was nothing to be done. Mr. Vanover was still on the ground. Stan sauntered over towards the body. He nudged it with his boot. He sighed and pulled out his phone. He pressed a few buttons. "You got one at Beaver Creek High. Better come before school lets out." He said through the line. He looked back at Saul and saw his eyes transfixed to something.
Saul saw a figure arrive if from some side door in the universe. It was cloaked in black and leaned over to the body. Stan acknowledge it but went back to Saul quickly. "Get in the car boy." He almost growled. Al was going to kill him.
The figure seemed to pull a long string from the body and brandished a pair of sewing scissors. Saul hadn't heard Stan's command. Instead he heard the overpowering sound of a snip of the scissors on the string. Once cut the string formed into a blue ball of light.
"Calvin you are to report to the court of after life and a wait your trail of existence." Said the voice. The sound of a snap was deafening and the ball disappeared. The figured turned to leave but then saw Saul and Stan. "Oh shit...." It muttered out. Stan growled at the figure once and it disappeared through the same side door it came through. Saul was definitely in shock now. Somehow he knew exactly what he had saw. A reaper of death come to collect a soul.
Calvin Merle Vanover died at 2:51pm, October 20th.
