A whispy blackened figure entered the dirry and desolate village. "It's Here!" Shouted a woman, now surrounded by several other pesent looking villagers, "Please save her, take someone else!" Warm drops of water fell from her freat broken eyes.
The figure seemed to pay no mind to her suffer, only continuing to walk past the people and the houses; one destination set in mind.
The outline of the person stopped, breaths of the citizens hushed as they watched the hand of death reach out to a soft, young female chained to the ground. She had stopped struggling by now, her head hung downwards towards the ground as she had given up. The boney hand touched her shoulder, and a white glow filled the surrounding area.
Seconds passed and the body went completely limp, "NO!" The older woman was now standing, the others trying to hold her boack, "How could you? She was a mere girl!" Tears were now spilling ever fast down her cheek. People murmered a few things bearly audible. "NO!" Catching the drift she slowly fell into the mud, her sobs muffled.
Villagers moved out of the way as the empty cloack towered over the woman. "Do you dare challenge the way of life you have been given?" She did not move nor made any attept to.
"It's just not fair." She crocked. The blackened figure let out a bone chilling laugh as it rotated, the limp body in hand. The fallen woman weakly rose to her feet, watching Death walk away with pure loath. "Would you want the only gem in your life to leave you?
The woman's brown scraggaly hair covered most of her face now, as she looked at the ground searching for her own answers, "The only thing that keeps you going. She is the reason I wake up in the morning. Sense I have nothing else to live for." The figure had paused, silence following for several moments before his hand regrppied the body and continued on. The older woman then fell to her knees, her own calmness drifting away. The soft sobbing trailing off as the blackened figure vanished into the night.
