The New Reaper

Chapter 8 EEE! symmetery lol

KPOV

If you and your partner are fighting an enemy and the enemy attacks the meister directly with their soul's wavelength, what are two downsides?

1. The meister would probably lose hold of his or her weapon partner.

2.________________________________________.

Damn it what was another downside? I thought, doing my homework. I sat at my desk in my room for a while thinking, but I finally gave up and fell my back to my bed. Maybe Cora will know! I got up and walked accross the hall and knocked on her door. When no one answered, I opened the door and was greeted by her loud music and a sleeping Cora. I walked over to her iHome and turned it down, she automatically sat up very quickly and hit her head on mine.

"OW! What the hell?" We said in unison looking at each other.

"Why are you in here Kid?" Cora asked, scratching the back of her head.

"I had a question about the homework."

"Oh, to tell the truth that whole Goody-Goody thing I was doing the first week of classes was just an act, I don't usually do my homework or show up to class everyday." She turned up the music, it was Awake and Alive by Skillet, I loved that song. I sat down on her bed, not really wanting to leave untill the song ended, I just sat there and murmured the words, trying not to make a fool of myself. But that failed, because by the chorus we were both flailing our arms around on her bed, screaming the words. It was fun acting like an idiot, to tell the truth, I haven't acted like a teenager in the longest time, I'm always trying to keep calm for the reason that I am a Grim Reaper.

"Right here, right now. Stand my ground and never back down. I know what I believe inside I'm awake, and I'm alive." We finished the song then fell on her bed, facing the ceiling. We both turned our head to face each other and Payphone by Maroon Five started playing and we both burst out laughing. I honestly don't know why but we laughed and laughed for the longest time, until Cora found her way to the ground, her back against the bed.

"Turn your back on tomorrow, cause you forgot yesterday, I gave you my love to borrow, but you just gave it away" Maroon 5 sang.

I sat up looking down at Cora when she grabbed my wrists and pulled me down to her level. I just looked forward and pretended not to notice, but she got on her knees and got really close to the side of my face. I would've turned my head but she was too close for me to move.

"Still stuck in that time when we called it love, but even the sun sets in paradise." I heard.

"What?!" I finally asked, blushing a little.

"I could swear you had your ears pierced," she said really softly, then backed off.

I smiled, turned to her, I took her hands and entwined my fingers with hers," Well I assure you, they aren't," I kissed her forehead, then got up and walked away. "Oh, and thanks for screaming with me," I teased.

"Anytime," She whispered, then I shut the door.

GPOV

"Anytime," I said, not wanting Kid to leave. I've begun to really like him, but I doubt anything will become of it since he's Shinigami-sama's son, and responsible enough not to get involved with his partner that way. Well, I shoved that dream to the back of my head and got up and went to sleep, since there was nothing else to do.

~~~~~~~

"Mom," I paused, "Dad?" I walked up the stairs to the kitchen- empty. " Mom, Dad I'm home from school, where are you?" I screamed. I walked down the hall to their bedroom. "It's Friday, you guys don't work, Where are you?" I asked, opening the door and seeing no one in there. Oh well I thought, they are probably out boating or something. I opened the door to my room. I was greeted my the worst thing that could've ever happened. My parents facing each other, partially transformed, only their arms were pistols, but my moms arm/pistol was on my dad's forehead, and my dad's arm/pistol was on my mom's.

"Just remember, Cora, we love you,'' my mom said. Then my dad pulled the trigger and so did my mom, causing both of their bodies to hit the far wall, blood poured everywhere from their wounds.

"NO!" I screamed after a moment of shock, "NO! WHY THE HELL WOULD YOU DO THAT?" I fell to my knees in front of their dead bodies, "NO ITS NOT TRUE YOU TWO ARE NOT DEAD!" but it was too late, because thats when two pure white souls floated out of their mouths toward each other, entwining their tails.

"Oh, well it looks as if Mr. and Mrs. Mortem have taken their lives as expected." A tall person with long red hair walked in, "It looks as if i have to take there souls to Lord Death, now"

" Who are you?"

"Why, I am Grell Sutcliff, and am from a totally different anime so I must be leaving now."

I ran after Grell but slipped in the pool of blood, half of my body now covered.

~~~~~~~~~

I shot up fast and screamed a little. Kid ran into my room and sat on my bed.

"What happened?"

"Just a bad dream, that's all," tears stung my eyes and threatened to streak down my cheeks, so I stood up, not facing Kid.

"Was it about your-" He cut himself off, but I knew he knew it was about my parents.

I walked out of my room and into the bathroom, I washed my face with cool water. When Kid came in, "You can tell me anything, you know." He said, hinting at me to tell him about my dream. "Like your dream, do you wanna talk about it?"

"I faced him, tears filling my eyes again. All it was was a flashback to my parents'," I sniffled, "Suicide." Kid patted my back, "I walked into my room and they shot themselves." I explained.

"Wait, they killed themselves in front of you?"

I nodded.

" It'll be okay" He reassured.

"I know it will, Kid." I paused, "I just miss them so much!"

Kid wiped the tears that managed to escape, then hugged me. "It's okay,"

We heard a knock on the door, it was probably Maka and Soul, they said they were gonna stop by. Kid immediately grabbed my wrist and dragged me downstairs.

"Do you guys do everything together?" Soul asked as Kid opened the door.

"No, Kid just likes to drag me places at random times," I smiled and wiped the rest of my tears away, hoping they wouldn't notice.

"You wanna play ball?" Soul asked, changing the subject. I don't like basketball much so I just ran out the door past Maka and yelled,

"I'll catch up later!"

"Where you going?"

" To find my brother," I explained, turning the corner. I wanted to ask him some questions about where he'd gone the past few years. I turned another corner and jumped to a fire escape, I figured it would be easier to see from above. I wandered the rooftops for a while until I came to a broken window. I hesitently stuck my head in to see if it was any cause of concern, it wasn't- all that was in there was an old one room apartment that, by the looks of it, no one had lived in for quite a while.

"Cora!" A familiar voice hollered. "Down here!"

"Hey! I've been looking for you," I jumped from the rooftop next to Clyde.

"Why?"

"No reason, really." I lied. My eyes traveled down to his bandaged hand, it was bloodied with really dark blood, almost black- wait it was black.
