5 pt.2

I don't know him, but he knows me? How? I've never invited anyone that looks even similar to him in my home. Scared, I throw the horn at him. It hit him in the head, hard. The horn had bounced off his head and landed in front of me with a, surprisingly, loud thud.

Good.

"Ow!" He yelped while holding his hands on the spot I hit him.

______________________________________________

I sat there staring at him while he put an ice pack on his head. I felt bad after hitting him on the head. I had brought him in my living room and sat him down on the couch. I gave him an ice pack for his bruising, it looked really bad; the color of blue and purple on his face.

"Now tell me." I was the first to speak. "Wh-oh yeah. I'm here, as what you humans say, a reaper. But-" He cut himself off by hissing in pain. I got up to het another ice pack, by now the one he was using became oddly warm, too warm, like it was on the verge of being hot. Weird.

"Thanks." He groaned. "Now, what was I saying? Oh yeah, I'm here as a somewhat reaper as you humans say, but I'm not coming to take your soul. I'm here to stop a what you call a "loop" and take away the other souls around you." He continued.

"I was assigned a special case though." he kept talking, but I cut him off. "Wait, what do you mean by 'I was assigned a special case though.' ?" I am very confused. "You have very very angry things around you. They want something from you, that isn't normal. Normal souls, or should I say average cases, are either lost, wanting something like an offering, or don't know they're dead." He paused, and took a deep sigh.

"But in your case they want you."

--------------------

I keep thinking about what he said. "But in your case they want you." What did that mean? Im gonna have to talk to him about.

Work has been piling up lately. I guess it's due to my new position. My boss had a lot of schedules, meetings, and emails. He REALLY needed an assistant, at this rate he might need two of them heh.

My thoughts continued as I worked. Ten minutes later my phone started vibrating, I checked it and it was my alarm for my lunch break. I clocked off and stood up walking twords the elevator. I always went to my favorite cafe on my lunch break. Once reaching the elevator I pressed the 'open' button, making the doors open, and stepped in. There was only one person in the elevator, a man with platinum blonde hair in a dark royal blue suit. It looked fairly expensive.

I didn't pay any mind to him I just minded my own business and he did that same.

Then the lights began to flicker until they finally died out along with the elevator itself. We were just standing there in pure darkness. I spoke first. "You think the elevator stopped working? Or is it just the power?" I was met with silence. I didn't hear breathing, it was like I was by myself.

Then the lights turned back on.
