Cynder

          It was a cold wet day in late August, it was late past noon as i walked down the boulevard to were i made it to a small shop, its windows covered up, and door tightly shut. I stood back and kicked the door down, i walked in and to my surprise, a elderly woman was sitting there, with her cat on her lap, just rocking back and forward. She looked up to me as if nothing happend, "Hello there, what do you need my dear?", I look up at her and say, "Nothing ma'm just here walking about in the cold, i just seemed to pass by here." I walk in a step closer and see a yellow gleam i  her eye. "No ma'm i am acxtually here to, take your filthy soul." I stand back and pull my scythe out. "What makes you say that my dear, i am just a elderly woman here trying to make the best of life" she stands up. "You dont fool me old woman, or should i say Xeophylus?" I power up my scythe. The Xeophylus finally surrenders his body and sheds the old lady skin of into ash, "We meet again Cynder, what do you want? Shouldnt you be home with your mommy and daddy?" I give him a slight grin, "Why are you so concerend about me? Shouldnt you be foucused on your fate right now?" He laughs, "Hahahahaha, little girl you cant take me down." He soon trys to escape and makes a portal and jumps in, i mannage to take grasp of him and pull him out of the portal and throw him out the window. "Ahhhh, what the fuck do you think you are?" I charge at him and knock him to the ground, "Did you finally realize it was time for bed? Is it way past your bed time?" I press my scythe aginst his throat and slit it open, leaving nothing but ash and a bit of flame bits. Soon people start to get out and see what was all the fuss about. I walk away from the scene before anyone notices, "Another job well done."

         The following day, i woke up and got dressed. After i dressesed up i then went to the kitchen to get my self something to eat. I ate and, got out to practice some throws on my daggers, and some swings on my scythe my usual mornings but, something happend around town. I suspected a not so welcoming presence as i walk down to town all locked on stealth mode, soon i finaly realize, the town is so quite and, so ghost like. Suddenly, i hear a snap behind me as i took careful steps not trying to make any sudden sounds. I look behind quickly to see to my surprise, nothing in sight but, as soon as i turn around the other direction, i see a young man across from me. This guy had black, flippy hair coming done to his face, a red streak of hair to be at his hair tips, a black and red leather trench coat, a scythe and a pair of swords to use as weapons and, was really important looking to, "hello? Who are you?" I take my scythe out incase. "My name is Shadow, Shadow Reaper, i am the spawn of the god of death and war, what is yours ma'm." I still scared have my scythe in hands, "My name is Cynder, i am the prophet, and the spawn of the god of stars, moon and, the heavens." He looks at me and stays in place, putting his swords back, "I am sorry to have frightend you, hello." He gave a smile and walked my direction a few steps, "Pleased to meet you Shadow, its ok if you frightend me, i must get used to it by the way." I give a warm smile back. A few minutes pass and we got to know each other better, "So what brings you here?" I look down at the ground as i ask my question, "What makes you ask that?" He looks at me and gives a confused look, "Its just that, i have never seen another reaper or, advent to help keep balance in this world." I look at another direction and grab my own wrist. He looks at my hand and gives a smile, "Is it strange for you to see another out here, you cant be the only one doing that hard job out here in the world on your own." I blush as he said those words, "Its just strange to see another person like me out here sent to do this job, i always thought i was the only one out here doing this job and i always thought i was the only one...." I look at him and give him a tired look, "Hey do have anywere to go tonight? If you dont you can stay at my place, i have a extra room i can fix you up if you dont mind me asking..." I look at him waiting for a response, after a few moments of silence he looks at me, "I can sleep at your house, i dont acctually mind." I motion him to follow me and we go home.
