The Birth of a Reaper (Prequel to The Reaper's Sister)

Ask and ye shall receive, right?

Someone asked me what Scarlet's backstory was. How did she become the reaper she is today? Personally, I had never really thought about it. I just made the character and said "We're now going to pretend that reapers are born as reapers, because I'm lazy." Now that I know better, I decided to give her a proper story as to how she became who she is. So anyway, I hope you enjoy.

(WARNING: As I'm sure some of you know, in the Black Butler universe, at least, in order to become a reaper, a person must kill themselves. That being said, this story does insinuate suicide. If you are sensitive to this topic, I do not advise you read this story. And remember, suicide is not a solution. It is an end. Things will get better, you just need to give it time. If you end it all, you'll never get to see where life could take you.)

(This is a Black Butler fanfiction. I do not own the universe or Yana's characters. I only own Scarlet. The cover image was found on Google and I used desyner to add my story title and name. All rights go to the owner of the picture.)

(Scarlet is my OC I created for my story "The Reaper's Sister". You may read either story first. I do not believe I have added any spoilers in here for the other. I hope you all enjoy!)
