Reaper: Book 1

Sinned By Anger

We step inside, and as they predicted, Crevan was trying to kill Pierre and Drax again. Pierre was unconscious and Drax was struggling to stay conscious. I look at them before hiding in the bathroom. I wait with the door locked. Eventually, it all goes quiet, then there's a knock at the door."He's gone now," Adrian says. I say nothing as I reach and unlock the door. I  sit back down where I was. I hug my knees and hide my face on top of them as my tears still fall. Drax comes in a few minutes later while holding his arm. "You ok?" I  ask him through my sobbing. "I should be fine in a few minutes. You?" He asks.  "Don't worry about me im fine. It's not important. How's Pierre?" I asked as I lied. "Unconscious. I dont really remember what he did to us. I know he nearly dislocated my arm". He says. "Ouch. You guys should check on her. And get rest." I said.

Drax shakes his head. "Nope. We can't do that yet". " why?" I ask. "Because part of my job is to make sure my fellow reapers are safe, so I must take action. You're not allowed to leave the realm without a chaperone and you aren't allowed to go to hell" He tells me. "Drax im fine!" I protest trying to keep it together. "Bullshit." He says. I shake my head.  "I'll be fine. Go away. " I tell him quietly but loud enough for him to hear. I throw my head against the wall. He's swift enough to stop her "You really think that is going to convince me? You're terrible at this. Then again so is everyone" He said. "Go away," I say moving his hands away. "No." I sigh and get up walking past Adrian tries to get to the window. Adrian grabs my shirt, causing me to stop.  "Where do you think you're going?" He asks.  "Let me go Batzy. I want to be by myself." I said in a nicer tone than with Drax. Tears still falling."Privacy? Do people still believe in that myth?" He asks. "Batzy im in no mood for laughing," I told him, freeing herself from his grasp and starts to climb out the window. "Very well, but just know that the other two are stubborn, they won't leave you alone," He says." They forget I am too." I tell him as I run.

As I run I ran into Crevan of all people. "Ow! What the hell?! Oh... it's you". He says. "Oh Shit. Im not in the mood to deal with your shit. Im sorry I ran into you I didn't mean to. " I tell him walking away."MY shit? Drew is the one who told me to kill the fuckers!" I turn. "What?! You do realize you have the ability to say no right?" I say with a sigh. "He likes to throw tantrums." He says. "Clearly. Well, im going now. I have...something to take care of. " I say leaving. I go to the tree that I and Adrian usually sit in and begin slicing my arms to try and make myself feel better. "Thought so. You, interns, are always so bad at hiding things." He says as he appears behind me. "Go. The. Fuck. Away." I demanded. 'Im in no mood for this!' "Make me" He says. "Ugh! Leave me alone! " I snap jumping down and start running again. When I stop he's behind me again."You think you can run from sin?" He asks.  "What do you want Crevan? I just want to be alone is that so hard to ask?" I ask crossing my arms. "Yep". He answered. "Why,? What do you want?" I ask again? "Cuz." Is all he says. "Did Batzy send you?" He gave a confused look. "Huh?"  I sigh. "Adrian," I tell him. "Fuck him". He snaps. "Hey! Don't be mean Batzy is a good guy. Now, why won't you fuck off and leave me the hell alone? Tell me. Please." 'I am pissed at this point. More than usual. Why?' I think to myself. "Cuz," He says. "Cuz why? Cut the shit Crevan." He answers the same. "Fuck this. I can't deal  with this right now." I say running again.

When I  stop he's behind me yet again. "It's nice to use my sin again. Especially on a newbie" He says. "You what?" He smiles. "I was using my sin, duh," He said. "Which one are you again? I forgot. I don't really like you". I say crossing my arms again. "Anger." He answers." Stop sinning me and go away." I try to say a bit nicer. "Why?" I ask." Isn't it obvious? And for your information, I wasn't angry. I was annoyed there's a difference." I told him. "Close enough to anger." He says with a smirk. "I was angry when I beat the fuck out of that demon. I mumbled. "Yeah, I know. That only makes me stronger" He says. "You're not welcome. Go away and let me attempt to die in peace." I  tell him walking away. "Ha! Has anyone taught you anything?" He says causing me to stop. "Yes I know we are hard to kill I know," I answered. "That's all?" I turn around and raise a brow. "Reapers couldn't kill themselves if they tried. Living here is eternal punishment". He tells me. " oh I didn't know that." "Ha! See I knew Adrian left stuff out". He says. "Are you trying to sin me again? I won't be mad at Batzy. So save it." I said sitting down. "What? No." He says. It's hard to tell. With Batzy, his eyes glow green. I seem him use it one some. People. Yours do nothing." I explained. "Oh, it does. It's just hard to tell". He says also sitting down.

"I'm sick of their shit. Always lying" He says. I shake my head." I don't think they lied they just kept things to themselves. But that's what everyone does. You all may be sins but your still people." I tell him with a small smile. "Is that supposed to be a joke? Crevan asked laughing. "You know what I mean. As much as I don't like the rest of you besides Adrian of course. I still respect your place in the world." I said honestly. "Don t make me laugh. Adrian is the runt of us all. He doesn't do his job and he associates with those pesky humans". "He may be younger but at least. He knows how to control his sin. Besides he's never used it on me. Like you did. so sorry if I prefer his company." I snap. "Why would he need to control his sin?""So he doesn't end up like you and the others. Unlike you all, he has humanity and morals. That's why I respect him so much. He doesn't use it unless he has to or has no choice. He does for fun once in a blue but that it." I explain. "He's a sin. He doesn't need humanity". I raise a hand. "My point is proven," I say. "He. Doesn't. Need. It". I look at him. "That's Lust's choice to make not yours." I get up and walk away again. "Fine." He sighs. 

I laugh. "What?" He asks following me. "Who's the angry one now? Hehe. You just mad cuz you know im right. If Adrian wanted to he could for example come here now and make me do anything he wanted. But he doesn't you know why? Because he respects people." I reply. "It's my job to be angry. "He says. "I know that. And I fully respect that. But that does not mean you have to be all the time. Maybe if you tried being more like Batzy I'd hate you less." I said. "What if I don't want to be like him?" "Well, that is up to you. Besides Adrian is more fin to be around." I said. "So?" He says. "What?" "Who cares if he's more fun?" He asks. "Me. He's my favorite person here. Only one I can be myself around. He doesn't try to make me do things I don't want to. He's always nice.  He treats people respectively unlike the rest if you. All you do is cause shit and be assholes to him and he did nothing wrong. If he wants to keep his humanity then let him. It's not your problem. Leave my favorite sin alone." I demand. "Nah." He says. "Well it's nice to chat with you Anger but I should go before Batzy comes looking for me I've been out for a while. Bye." I tell him walking away. "Tell Adrian I'm done now. He'll know what it means". Crevan says. I nod and head back Pierre and Drax's house.
