Innocent [on hold]

Familiar

Chapter 10
Kronos POV
SPECIAL RELEASE

           Why was she here? I yank my scythe back and watch as the man falls limply to the floor without it holding him up.
           The woman doesn't even look, she stares me straight in the eye as she stands up.  Ripping off her mask would be useless. There would be no way to confirm her identity and I don't have enough information on her to know if she poses a threat to me.  So I just quietly stare down at her.

          "Why did you kill him." She asks, motioning to the man on the floor.

          "I just took back something that doesn't belong to him." I try to look as intimidating as I could.  "Why did you kill, Carrie?"

          "She's a stain." She responds curtly, I could tell she was hiding something but I couldn't say anything because I was being vague too.

          "You killed Beluah, didn't you." She spits the name like a curse. "She had a stab wound but it wasn't enough to kill her.  You killed her just like you killed this man. Who knows how much other people in the city have died in your hands."

         I looked at the man on the ground.  He had no wounds like the fight didn't even happen.  Anyone who hadn't witnesses the fight would say he died of unknown causes.
        My scythe wasn't used to make physical harm.  It's used to kill souls.  Technically it can't even harm a fly.

        "What is it to you that I got rid of some fallen.  Shouldn't you be happy of the riddance?" I ask with an uninterested tone, honestly I was interested, intrigued even even if i showed it is make her retreat defensively, the opposite of what I want.

         She doesn't blink, not betraying her true reaction to what I said. "What gives you the right to?"

       "The same thing that gives you the right to." I state returning to leaning against the fridge, but this time facing her.

        "Touche."

         "I hope you don't make a habit of following me." My smile widens. "You don't want to be found lying cold in your house with an unidentified cause of death."

          She smiles wildly not at all fazed by the threat. "I hope you're not underestimating me, Kallath."

          That stupid name again. I was already worried about how that stupid Riccorn knew who I was and now this woman also knew.  It was infuriating to say the least.

            "You know my alias can I be bestowed the pleasure of knowing yours?"I shifted the weight of the name into that of an alias to get her to let her guard down a notch.  It was a farfetched, but it might work.

            "How about the Black death?" She was mocking me, throwing the fact that I used a scythe back at me. Honestly, I didn't expect a name but her attitude was mildly infuriating.

            I couldn't tell of her wariness of me was an indication of fear so I didn't say much.
           
            "Its been nice chatting with you, but I have to get going." She says as she leaves I don't stop her.  I watch as she leaves.
