Diary of a Red Reaper

(12) Explanations

I awoke to see the shadowy mist that is scythe's body standing next to my bed.

"Red, wake up. I need you to summon your servant, please. He and I need to have a little chat..."

"Ugh. Why are people always waking me up? I just want to sleep." I say as I rub my bloodshot eyes.

You've gotton plenty of sleep, this is very important." Scythe explained.

Letting out a sigh, I sit up in bed. "What do I have to do?" I ask.

"I want you to yell at him with your mind, force him to appear before you. He is your servant and you're his master, he has no choice but to listen to your summons."

I climb out of bed and go to my closet for some clothes, My favorite jeans and a tight fitting red hoodie.

"So I just have to think about it?" I ask.

"Yes, its simple, he should have told you this right away but he seems to neglect his role as your guide quite often." Scythe said angrily.

I closed my eyes and pictured the small halfling in my mind, Nothing happened at first. Then suddenly a tear in space appeared in the air, Dank fell from it shortly after.

"What the hell was that?! What do you want?! Dank yells angrily.

Scythe quickly gets in Dank's face and yells right back.

"You have not been doing your job! You are to educate him in the ways of a Red Reaper! But you've been sitting on your ass and avoiding your responsibilities! Because of your lack of guidance he was in danger of death on more than one occasion, And its only been a week! You are his servant, act like one, now teach him, teach him everything!"

Dank was silent for a while, but soon took a seat on the floor and motioned for me to sit across from him. I did.

As dank spoke I could tell there was hate in his words.

"I'm sorry. I'll try my best to... Serve you... Master..."

"Thank you Dank, so what else is there for me to learn?" I ask curiously.

Dank began to rub his forehead as he spoke.

"I've got a lot of stuff that I will need to teach you, this may take a while..."
