It's funny how I died now that I look back in it. It was a Monday morning; oh how I despised Monday's. My alarm bell was ringing like a telephone. I was late for my bus. My mom is gonna kill me is all I thought. I got dressed and grabbed my Backpack and ran like hell. The bus must've been slow because I ran right pass it. I kept running until I felt what felt like a million needles poking at me. My vision was hazy. I must've walked into a pole or something I'm clumsy like that. I tried to lift my head up but nothing happened. I screamed for help but no one came. It seemed dark and hot. I eventually heard voices. People screaming "some one call 911!!" "Is he dead?!" I didn't know the answer to the question. But for the slightest moment I wanted to be. I had no reason to be here. My mom beats me,my dad left,I have no friends...no one wants me...why be here? At least in heaven or hell someone will want me.
I passed out or I think I did. Was I on my way to the hospital? Did I die? It wasn't dark anymore it was a bright white. I still had no voice but I could see and turn my head.
" who's this?" Said a strong husky voice. He was wearing a soldier uniform. He had a chiseled face and deep green almond eyes. He looked extremely tan. "It's the new recruit. Tim Carson." That's me I thought. "Hell old kinda skinny for what I'm looking for."said the soldier. I was skinny and tall. I have black hair and brown eyes I have chubby cheeks and I'm extremely pale. I bet I wasn't what that soldier was looking for. The soldier spat on the ground tapping his watch while looking at the time."look I don't have a lot of time can you give me another?" The guy in the science coat shook his head."this one has potential. I promise. The man upstairs says he has to be a reaper." I was confused. A reaper? What the hell is that? The soldier looked me up and down. "You know you can't say no...you'll be cast out..." the soldier looked angry for a moment than smiled a smile with the most sinister smile. The kind of smile the bad guys have in old cartoons. " get up!" The soldier said and I was tempted to but a whisper in the back of my head said no. I laid there silent. Soldier smiled. We got a good one.
I was taken to a bigger whiter room. In front of me was a chair. A normal plain chair. In front of me was a man a man who looked just like any other man would. I was tempted to talk. "Talk then." I heard the man say. His voice was sweet and calm. He smiled at me. " talk my child. Please!" I was startled at the fact that he just read my mind!! I just stood there like an idiot." Are you god?" I heard the soldier chuckle. The man looked up at the soldier and raised his eyebrows. "Have you met Michael?" He moved his hand to show the soldier. Michael was no longer smiling. "Yes I believe he's the soldier who said he didn't want to take me...here" it took me a while to think of what here was. God smiled at me." You are now a reaper it is your job to keep heaven and earth safe from the demons that threaten the peace I have created. You will train with Michael and if you have any trouble please tell jadiel the angel who prepared you for this time." I looked back and it was the man in the science coat. He smiled and waved. Now that I could see him Better I could tell he had blonde hair and blue eyes. He looked nerdy and kind. His blue eyes seemed small because of his glasses. I waved back."goodbye my son." And then I was teleported to a cabin in the middle of nowhere. I wasn't alone.
"We have a new one." I heard a girl say. I looked up. She had a small button nose and chubby cheeks. Her brown eyes were wide. A hand moved her aside. She looked a lot like the young girl yet skinnier,higher cheek bones and a sharper nose. A swords tip was against my throat." Who are you? Why are you here?" Her voice was strict yet fruity. I laughed I couldn't believe what I was about to say. She pushed the blade further. "I'm a reaper." Her face was calm for a second than it returned to fury. Her wavy brown hair got in her face. "Well done Malle !" Said Michael clapping. She took her sword away and put in her scabbard. "Welcome into your new home Carson!" Shouted Michael. All of them were girls. I was the only boy. Jadiel entered the room with a clipboard and smile." Hello everyone! Say hello to Tim!" The girls grunted in annoyance." Hello Tim I'm Zoe!" The girl who pointed her sword at me just a minute earlier said nicely. The next girl was the little girl." Hi Tim I'm Olivia. Zoe's sister." She said with no emotion at all. It gave me a chill. She walked over to her sister who was smiling." Hi I'm Janice but every one calls me jay!" The girl put her hand out for me to shake. I took it and smiled. She had a contagious smile. She was black, her eyes a dark chocolate color,her hair black with some light brown highlights. She had straight hair. The next girl was quiet. She had curly frizzy light brown hair. She had a heart shaped head, she was wearing glasses and braces, and most of all I knew her. She went to my school. She had committed suicide about a month ago. She loved to read and write and she loved to watch tv she would tell the teachers and the counselor all about her fandoms. She was bullied cause she liked classics old cool things. Those idiots." Ava?" I asked she stopped walking and looked up." Tim?" I nodded my head. She did a half smile." That's all she's said since she's got here." Zoe whispered to jay. I put my hand out for her to shake it but instead I got a hug and some words between sobs that we're difficult to understand. Finally she backed away and wiped tears from her eyes." My parents...how are they?" I only nodded. Her parents weren't actually doing that well but she didn't need that." They're terrible aren't they." Ava said looking down." I knew this would break them I just couldn't take it anymore!!" I didn't know what to do what to say. I hugged her and calmed her down. Michael rolled his eyes." Well that's just sweet but I don't need tears on my cabin! Suck it up buttercup!training starts now!"
