Chapter 4: Reaper

Fire and darkness twirled around coexisting within this space of existence, the creatures that resided here were all evil spiteful creatures that craved power and blood. This is a place that had monsters such as ghosts, ghouls, zombies, vampires, etc.

At the top most part of the abyss where the weakest creatures reside such as souls and skeletons there was a dark mass which was resembled the figure of a human. Except the face which morphed into a feral grin with a hideous long black tongue which swayed in excitement whenever it tasted the energy of its prey. Above that huge mouth is a pair of eyes which would drown anyone who gazed long enough, those eyes belonged to someone broken, someone only driven by freak, that someone is Xavier.

Piles of bones and ectoplasm were gathered in a small hill where at the top sat a blob of mass feasting on the energy present within the creatures. Xavier has been in this layer of the abyss for a single day, consuming and killing all those who appeared for it with a nasty obsession to gaining power. Anything that came close to him and had power that he could devour was killed and sucked dry in the most painful way possible, while those who stood in his way but didn’t help his power grow was just used to satisfy his endless belly while he collected them into a small pile to admire. When the blob of dark mass started to sway as if it was beginning to move after finishing its mean a dark blue light suddenly shinned from deep within the abyss.

This deep dark blue light was from some mysterious source within the deepest part of the abyss, the part where the strongest and most dangerous creatures reside under personal management of the god of death lest they escape and cause mass destruction across the multiuniverse.

The blue light sent at light speed collided with the dark blob of mass but surprisingly the blob of mass did nothing but let out an inaudible screech of pain. Suddenly, a black skeletal like hand came from a portal made of blue energy appeared in front of the dark mass with a small statement of being interested. Confused Xavier moved to get away but no matter how much he struggled the skeletal hand still found its way around his body encompassing him, not letting go and applying more pressure to its body which didn’t have a physical form.

Inaudible screeching and curses flew from Xavier’s mouth as the pressure built up and became unbearable. Soon the curses and screeching turned to begging to let him go and then finally it became silent as Xavier went dark and passed out.

Within a flat an old lady lay flat on the floor not moving as two being appeared suddenly without notice or sound, one of the beings was a blob or dark mass who took the shape of a human, the other being was of a red imp with a reaper staff. “Look rookie, you have been assigned to be a reaper, this job is hard not going to lie but it is what it is. Look was we do here is go to people recently dead around the area we have been assigned to and we hear their story, the true story and judge them. Will they go to hell, the abyss, or to heaven, which to be honest man not many people go its about a true heart no religion involved. Anyway, rookie let me demonstrate what we do before you get your own territory and title as a reaper.”

Before the imp could do anything and Xavier can completely register what is happening or why his hatred basically disappeared and he’s back to feeling like his own self, everything blacked out and he was back in the arms of the skeleton who now presented his full self to Xavier.

“Do you accept” The unfathomable man said as he stared down at both figuratively and literally at the blob of mass known as Xavier.

“Yes”.
