The two of you became one. His voice in your head.

“You are now mine boy, so go forth and reap souls for me!”

“Wait what i thought you just brought me back?”

“Do not worry you humans look for power wherever you can find if and now you have the power of death itself!”

“Wait wait ok stop. What do you mean. Explain.”

“You are now my servant. You will collect souls for me.”

I was spiraling in my thoughts. I lived but at what cost. I didn’t know what to ask, and I didn’t want to die. I did his bidding reluctantly. Over hundreds of years the people i called family died. Their children lived in but death wouldn’t let me stay with them for long. I would go back and visit, but they would only say that I resembled their uncle who probably died. One day I found a woman I loved. This surprised me because I had lost most my emotions. It happened when I took over a persons body that I had run over by a bus. When I went to collect the soul I made a deal for it to live a bit longer as long as I was entertained. It turns out she was his daughter. But anyway time passed and I was known as the reaper for a long time until one day he decide we wanted to die.

“You have served me well boy.”

“ i know death we talk everyday and we have almost the same talk.”

“Become death !”

“I thought I was you?”

“You are now I want you to take over. We can’t stay gods of death forever we were all once human. So we rotate out like in the military. You can stay forever but it depends on how long you can hold out.”

“….”

I just accepted it. I was indifferent and didn’t rotate out. I because death and still am. I want to quite but I don’t want the humans to know about this. They will think we can change fate but we only follow the rules placed before us. Who makes the rules? I don’t know I don’t honk I will ever know

So I died. The soul mate I saw is someone I have never seen, but her beauty is absolute. This feeling of death was amazing like swimming on a rainy day. It felt warm in a way. I couldn’t get her out of my mind here white hair and platinum eyes. I giggled the warmth I was feeling started at tickle.

“A human that laughs in my face. How interesting who are you?”

“Who’s there?”

“This is my domain you are just passing by.”

“Well that really doesn’t answer my question, but what do you mean I’m only passing by!”

“Human please just be silent you will leave of your own will in a little.”

“Not until I get an answer …… also what’s your name?”

“My name? How strange. I am what you call смерть.”

“So are you this warm feeling?”

“….. warm feeling? Human what do you mean?”

“I mean what I mean what do you mean?”

“Why are humans like this uhhhhh!”

I saw her the woman I had just seen a seconds ago. My mind went blank I could only look at her. My eyes didn’t leave her, but I still felt like she evaded my gaze somehow even though I’m looking straight at her. She came close and started touching me.

“You are mot normal hum..”

“My name is ever. Do you have something you want me to call you”

“…. Martha.”

“Well Martha it looks like your the only person I can talk to here, so let’s get alone.”

Time passed and we spoke. There is nothing to do thankfully I like doing nothing. We got closer after a while. One day she asked me to become her reaper. I didn’t understand ,but I just wanted to be with her. We merged i resided in her domain and guided the people through this limbo. She was my everything. We because inseparable.

🙏🙏

🙏🙏🙏 I know I really on auto correct a lot my spelling sucks 🤣 but thank you so much

🙏🙏🙏

Thank you 🙏 for letting me know I transmites the tragedy properly. Sorry I made it sad.

I looked at the child confused.

“Child you want to play together? Do you know who I am, or why I’m here?”

“No my mom left me here for …. I don’t remember how long, but I want to play. Will you play with me?”

The child didn’t know he had died. It looked to be about 6. It’s a sad sight to see when a child is left to die. I couldn’t do anything for him. I didn’t know what his past was like but now we are here.

“Do you know your name?”

“I think it’s dumb that’s what my mom calls me.”

He smiled at something so sad. This child had done nothing wrong, and still he had a life like this. At this point even my cold dead hands were warm in the eyes of this poor boy.

“Alright let’s play Minecraft child, but you’ll have to teach me ok.”

“That’s ok we will have fun no matter what it’s a little hard to play, but don’t give up.”

People think that death is cold, but you kinda have to be when my job is what it is. Thankfully I can still show compassion. Sometimes death is a kindness. The rest of the time it’s just a part of life.

“Come on mister let’s go we have a lot to build!”

“Alright let’s go!”

I can stop for a bit. Hopefully this one has a better life in heaven. The mother and father I’ll have to deal with them when their time comes. Thankfully I can also be cruel for when time ends for them. Till then I think I have to take my little buddy upstairs after this game of course.

Humans are hard to understand in general, but when we found out that they collected all the apex predators from all over we didn’t know what to think. Humans are quite strange some of the most harmless things can concern them; then they turn around and and rub the stomach of the most deadly animal on the planet. Other members of the galaxy went to see what the humans where doing with the animals. When they came back it was so out of this world we thought they were joking. We all went to make sure. The humans had made them into pets. Creatures that can split world and eat stars rolling over and doing tricks. The humans bring fear to us not because they are deadly, but because the deadliest creatures are silly little pets.
