The Reaper

Chapter 5: Pludospea

Chapter 5

Pludospea

"I just have known you've got yourself a little kitten."

The Reaper looked at him and shakes his head. He is sorting some paper works out and someone unfortunately pays a visit.

"Are you keeping her here? With you?" the latter snorted.

"Can you keep your mouth shut?" he said, annoyed.

The man gasped while he dramatically clutched his chest where his heart is, "Oh, no, my favorite reaper. The succubi doesn't want this delicious mouth shut or else they'll--"

The Reaper loudly sighed cutting his sentence. Heto na naman kasi ang pinakaayaw niyang makita sa lahat. Kapag nagtuloy-tuloy na naman ito sa pagsasalita ay unti-unti namang nababawasan ang pasensya niya.

Lucifer laughed. He likes teasing the reaper so much. He walked towards his desk- with a Hapsburg Premium Reserve Absinthe in hand, and sat down on top of it. "Aren't you too busy for something... you know, like having sex?"

The Reaper immediately looked at him with wide eyes, "Sex agad-agad?" alam niyang naiintindihan siya nito kahit na anong lenggwahe ang bigkasin niya dahil sa ito nga si Lucifer. He's fluent in every language of the world. He's the king of Tartarus, the ruler of Hell. Sanay na siya sa presensya ni Lucifer pero minsan talaga ay napipikon siya nito. "Aren't you too busy for this conversation, Lucy? Don't you have other plans to do besides... getting me cheesed off here?"

"Blimey." (My goodness, in British slang.) Lucifer gulped the remaining of his cold drink. "I'll never get tired of pissing you, you wanker." he smiled, showing his perfectly white teeth.

Inayos ni Lucifer ang suit na suot niya (yes, he's wearing a black suit almost identical to what the reaper wears everyday tuwing magkikita sila, because why not? Gustong gusto niyang iniinis ang binata--pun intended.), meaning he's talking business. The playful Satan, gone. "I am here because I have to tell you something and I need your help. Hades decided to go for a bloody holiday!"

Malakas na inihampas ni Lucifer ang mga kamay sa mesa ni Kamatayan. Nagliparan ang mga papel at lamp na nasa ibabaw nito na siya namang isa-isang pinupulot ni Kamatayan.

Hindi maaaring umalis si Hades sa Elysium. Hindi niya maaaring ipagkatiwala sa ibang demonyo ang underworld sa kahit na anong oras na gustuhin niya.

Kitang kita niya ang pagiging itim na itim ng buong mata ni Lucifer. Kahit na isa siyang reaper ay pakiramdam niya ay kahit na anong oras ay kayang higupin ni Lucifer ang kaluluwa niya.

"Encuéntralo en la Tierra. ¡No vuelvas aquí hasta que finalmente encuentres a ese imbécil!" (Find him on Earth. Don't come back here until you finally find that asshole!) Lucifer roared in Spanish, the Reaper's mother tounge.

"¿Por qué a mí?" (Why me?) He's a bit hesitant. He knows Hades. He's one of the most hard-headed God that he has met. The God of the underworld. The God of Elysium.

"Simplemente porque eres mi favorito." (Simply because you're my favorite.) Lucifer smiled.

'Damn Lucy and his mood swings.' he thought.

"Remember I hear your thoughts, right?" Ngumiti si Lucifer saka muling nagsalita, "Oh, and about that girl who sees you..."

Tumaas ang kilay niya, "What about her?" masungit niyang sabi.

"Well, I guess you would like to know why she sees you." Lucifer shrugged. Disappointed that his glass was now empty.

He straightened up. "Why?"

Lucifer smirked and munched the ice cube inside his glass, he doesn't want to beat behind the bush, "She's you're bloody mate, lad. Mates like the werewolves and lycans have. You're the only one who doesn't know. You should be thankful to me, I guess you're free of your curse!"

"Bakit naman ako maniniwala sayo?" bumalik siya sa pag-aayos ng mga papel na nagsilipad nang magdrama si Lucifer kanina.

"Because I don't lie?" Lucifer stands up and continues, "I guess I'll see you later when you found the asshole. I bet right now, he's being friendly with your mortal mate." he flicked his fingers and a portal to Hell opened. He waved goodbye to the Reaper showing his angelic smile. "Hasta luego, mi segador favorito." (See you later, my favorite reaper.) and with that, he's gone.
