Chapter Two

This place, well, it's actually interesting, if you can count counting hanging dead chickens as fun. China managed to find me again and even bought me this coffee called cappuccino. She convinced me to dye red streaks at the top of my hair. She said that it complemented my eyes or whatnot. There goes than vanity deal again. Though, I must admit, the spikes and fishnet really do nicely…

Looking up from a book (I told you, Adrien was a wise mentor. He taught me every possible language that I would need. I go around everywhere, do I not?). Twisted Destinies, by some off name girl. She's rather quite talented… her characters remind me of Adrien. I mentally grunt at his name. After what he did to me, my frozen heart still warms to him, stirring soft feelings somewhere within. And yet? I hate him. We had something in common, but he couldn't look past it. He called it a curse as much as I did. He brought death too, but why do I feel more remorse?

I look at the dark red roses beside me. This little cemetery is considerably lovely and peaceful. Someone had the heart enough to plant these roses around. Sarah McNeil. I know her, she died from suicide. Overdose on her mother's sleeping pills. It's getting harder to remember the names, much less the faces… but they're all the same, when I press my tainted lips upon their sweet, innocent ones for death, for the death of their body. But they're not as frighten as they are when they see my scythe, believing that I'm going to bring them to Hell. I don't decide that. They create their own hell. I'm just here to separate their soul from their body, that's what my crystal scythe is for. Of course they wouldn't understand. Then they hate me for doing it to them. But it was meant to be. They created that future, and everyone must die…

I lost Awena… she flew off from me again. She'll be back, she's searching for someone for me. The next one for Death. It's been decades since I been here. I hated it here more than back at home. Mother could have let me gone with father and I could have came out the same but with friends, no worries about subjects nor the job of killing… it wouldn't have mattered anyway, he was a powerful human, the first I believe, and he somehow gathered magic from the elders when they died… love. Humph. Foolish feeling, it is… who needs it when it only causes pain? And only pain…

Damn these tears…damn the worlds… damn, damn me. However, I'm already damned, for all of eternity. I'm such an idiot. Why did I come here?

I finally see Awena and my new prey… Gods, why do I think like that? Without knowing, those red roses turn black as I walk the young man dressed in the very same much fashion as I, feed my companion. I feel a hot rage boil up in me as I watch her befriend the handsome teenager.

"What are you doing? If you poisoned my bird, human," I say disgusted as I walk up to the raven haired and startled you man.

"It's just a bird, I'm feeding it." I snort at him and call forth for Awena and she dutifullies comes on my shoulder. I wave an impatient hand near his face, normally people can't see me, I think that either Awena or Adrien did something. Saddness. I have to save this beast. Save him from himself. Why can't anyone save me from me? And Adrien wondered why I was always so bitter...

As he turns away from me, I say"Fuck you." But I don't know why said that. It suprises him, along with me, that's for sure.

"Whatever, dude."

"I-wait, sorry, I'm lost and everyone's been asses," well, it's half the truth. I just want to talk to him, straighten him out. With the feeling he gives me, makes me afraid to see his death. I don't come here often, so there are a lot of wandering and lost souls. It takes too long to get here and I want home.
