Death can be Cruel. But Sometimes it's necessary. But what happens when you can't die but when almost everyone you meet dies with a touch? Death himself was able to control this, and being Death he felt that something was about to end his reign of helping those pass when it was their time. And before you start assuming anything, This Death, isn't your typical Grim Reaper looking guy. Of course he has that as a secondary form, his primary form is that of a normal man. Death is forced to bare a child if he is to continue his work and keep the balance of the supernatural. Now this takes place in modern times and his child's name is Nathan. And his childhood was rough. And although Death made sure his mother was immune, Nathan couldn't touch anyone else without killing them instantly. But as a teenager he wanted to go out and explore since he was kept locked up. so he went out during the night . But then something strange happened. He meets a girl Immune to his touch of death. He notices this instantly and was curious. But this wasn't going to be easy to get info being that at this point his father was dead and now something dark and evil was after him. Now I realize that Nathan himself is dark, But he's a force of balance and good. So before you start making assumptions "Why isn't Nathan evil? He has to kill people for a living Blah blah blah" Remember he kills to keep things in balance.
