Chapter 2: Verge of death

The streetlights flickered on and off. Kazuto hung his head down in fear of the police coming after him, he constantly looked left and right and was very cautious of his surroundings, although the boy was only fourteen he was smart enough to know what happened to people who murdered their parents.

.

Kazuto kept watching his back until he had thought that he had made it far enough for himself. He thought that he would book himself into a hotel but was unsure whether that was a smart thing to do. A fourteen-year-old walking into a hotel at the crack of dawn hardly seemed normal, he had decided that he would figure out what to do in the morning. He looked forward and right into his eyesight stood a broken down and abandoned fast food restaurant. Perfect! Thought Kazuto, a place where he could hide out until the morning. And nobody would have bothered to look for him. Kazuto slowly made his way to the run-down restaurant and wondered if there would be any left-over food. He thought it would be much wiser to conserve his money supply since he was limited with only 4,000 Yen. He would hear his stomach growl violently and thought to himself that it wouldn't matter if he used only a little bit of the money.

Kazuto turned around and began to walk around looking for a place to eat, as he walked he had more time to think, he thought about what had actually just happened, in Kazuto's mind he couldn't fully process the fact that at this moment and time his uncle and auntie were dead. Who whispered in his ears? What did his auntie mean by saying "You're a murderer!" all these questions had now illuminated Kazuto's mind. What power had he been given?

Kazuto was not excited about this power but much rather filled with fear, what consequences came with this.

Kazuto's mind was so clouded that he didn't even realize he was in the midst of trouble before he had realized he felt a knuckle adjoin to his cheek and he was sent backwards and fallen onto the ground. Kazuto almost instantly fell out of any train of thought he had. "OW!'' He said with the aching pain which throbbed on his cheek.

Standing in front of him stood three boys each looking quite angry.

Kazuto looked at the three people in front of him. "W-What seems to be the issue...?" Kazuto said quite close to frightened. He didn't know how to access this power that was given to him or how it worked. He had zero type of combat training and now he was in the midst of getting his ass killed. What terrible luck fell upon Kazuto.

The first man looked around the age of fourteen. He looked at Kazuto before walking closer to him. "Your dumbass bumped into the wrong people..." as he cracked his knuckles.

Kazuto gulped as he attempted to slowly get up and retreat but as soon as he lifted himself up, he was kicked back to the ground.

"Did I tell you to get up?" said the boy in front of him.

The other two boys began to laugh one of the two boys then said. "I don't think he knows who he's messing with."

The boy in front of Kazuto. "We are the Reapers... And I am the leader of this part! Karma!"

Karma then pointed back at his two friends. "And these guys...? Well, you don't need to worry about their names, you won't live long anyway!" Before he stepped backwards and Kazuto watched ass the Reapers moved forward.

With them closing in Kazuto began to fear for his life once more, he was starting to wonder when the voice would come when he would be offered the power to dispose of the enemies in front of him.

Nothing happened, he stood there as he watched the two reaper boys moved even closer and closer before they pulled the boy up and pushed him against the wall where they would rapidly punch and kick him. He stood there and continued to get hit.

"W...hy...?" Kazuto managed to slip out of his mouth. Tears started to roll down his face. "Why is it always me?" He said beginning to sob.

"SHUT UP!" Karma had yelled. As the two continued to punch him, and at that moment he felt time slowing down, it had felt as if it was just him all by himself.

A voice whispered in his ears. "Kazuto... Kazuto, Kazuto...! How do you find yourself in these situations?"

"Help me..." Kazuto said faintly.

"As you wish. The voice whispered. And just like that time had resumed.

A battered-up Kazuto looked up at the two in front of him, his eyes had moved from dark brown to a dark red colour.

One of the two boys said. "Wait... wasn't his eyes brown before?"

The other one responded. "Who cares?" and attempted to hit Kazuto in the face.

Kazuto smiled. "It's punishment time." He said as he caught the boys fist and twisted his hand before the flame then engulfed his body once more."Tsk...tsk... tsk..." Kazuto would the screaming body that laid on the floor. He then looked in the direction of the other one and smiled. He walked very slowly to him and once he finally reached him a blue flame sword appeared in his hands as he impaled the other man in his chest and watched the screaming of the male.

He then moved towards Karma. "Go and tell your 'Reapers to never come near me again." Before he clicked his fingers and the bodies turned into dust and blew into the wind.

Karma smiled. "You took out the two but don't get cocky! Do you honestly think you're the only one with powers?" He said before a massive chill fell upon Kazuto. And the words fell out of Karma's mouth. "Fear... Inducement."

All of a sudden Kazuto had begun to feel his body stop moving, his heart was beating heavily he couldn't even move his lips, just what type of power did Karma have? Karma smiled as two pistols appeared in his hand and he dashed forward and smiled. "Goodbye..." Karma said smiling as the two guns stood facing Kazuto's stomach Kazuto would try and create a fire guard at the last second to lessen the damage.

Karma slowly pulled the trigger and a massive amount of energy busted out and Kazuto's eyes widened as he would cough out a massive amount of blood.

His body laid they're on the ground Karma looked at his gun smiling, "Well that was easy." He said wiping his guns.

A shadowy figure stepped out and yelled. "Whats up with the dead body? Ugh, you're so impulsive.'' The mysterious woman looked at Karma quite pissed.

"He's dead now, so no point crying over it." He said as he walked off. "Let's go now Misokai!"
