Kemburaskia sat alone in her throne as Gregor, her assistant, bowed and walked up to her.
"How's the humbleness coming along?" Gregor chuckled.

"Is far worse than humbleness." Kemburaskia mumbled under her breath. Gregor grinned widely.

"You know what I always loved?"

"Baffle me."

"Sommers found me dead in the hospital, I was his creation."

The four horsemen, War, Famine, Pestilence, and Death, have been the ones to make the evil spread and destroy the world when it is the right time.  Yet do you know who they truly are?

But after a few years, Geoff starts suffering a mid-death crisis. What's the purpose of going through the motions as a skeleton if you can't really live? Then he gets word that his cat, Bernie, just died and he can collect him and bring him home!
