The girl with Pink Hair

Chapter Forty One

"A little rough there don't you think?" Dawn wondered looking over at Sakura who simply shrugged her shoulders.

"They will never learn unless I am stern." She replied.

"She was a kid." Diem laughed, "She almost peed herself!"

"Yeah..." Sakura muttered biting her bottom lip, "That was kind of funny!"

"Your terrible!" Dawn laughed with Sakura.

"Alright-" Diem sighed, "-what are we going to do with him?"

The three commanders of the waterfall village turned to look at the man tied to the metal chair. The man belonged to no other than the reapers, he came screaming into the village begging for Sakura's help.

When Sakura arrived on scene, he dropped to his knees claiming he wanted to be set free from the reapers and he would pass over any information he had on them in order to help Sakura bring them down.

Sakura sighed as she pulled up a chair and sat down across from the man, he slowly looked up to the pink haired reaper. This was the first time seeing her in person, he had only seen her inside quick snapshots taken by hidden members of his organization.

She was stunning and the word terrifying didn't give the deadly look she was giving him justice. Sakura was watching, studying the man as he looked from her to the two commanders standing behind her.

"Your name and rank." Sakura said, finally breaking the melting silence that was oozing around the room.

"Th-They call me-me Bo-Bowie." The reaper stuttered under the three Commanders gazes.

"Bowie?" Diem raised an eyebrow; he joined the reapers and could pick any new name to start his new twisted life and he picked Bowie?

"Rank." Dawn crossed her arms over her chest.

"I-I was just a low-level tr-trafficker." The reaper said honestly, he saw the disgust in Sakura's eyes, the molten hatred that swirled inside those green orbs felt like they were burning his very soul. "I didn't want too!" The reaper defended himself. "I never even wanted to join the reapers, but they attacked my village out of nowhere a few years ago, we never stood a chance and it was either be killed on the spot or join them...I did what I had to do to survive!" The reaper pleaded. "What was I supposed to do?!"

"You die on your feet-" Sakura said standing, her chair scraping across the cement floor. "-than serve on your knees."

"I-I have information!" Bowie said, "I know you have been looking for our hideout and I don't know where that is, but I do know where the next portal to take us there will open up."

The three commanders all looked at each other, this could be a real shot at finding the reapers hideout and finally taking them down.

"He could be lying." Diem muttered.

"But I am not!" Bowie promised but was ignored.

"He is a Reaper." Dawn stated with her hand on her hip, "Lies come out of their mouth as naturally as carbon dioxide."

"That is true." Sakura muttered, 

"I am trying to get out of the Reapers!" Bowie cried looking between the three people who determined his future.

"Once a Reaper, is always a Reaper." Dawn said appalled she was even speaking to this sorry excuse for a being and not slitting his throat!

"She was a Reaper!" Bowie guestered with his head towards Sakura.

"Exactly their point." Sakura stated as she moved, leaning in front of him placing both her arms on the chairs rests and gazed into his eyes as hers shifted into their familiar Christmas wreaths that made Dawn feel comfort and safe. "He isn't lying." Sakura muttered as her eyes shifted back into their green orbs, "He did receive coordinates a few miles outside Sand territory."
