All souls must be collected for the afterlife. Where exactly those souls end up is none of our concern. Who are we? Oh, pardon my manners, dear. We are the Reapers, the Collectors of Souls, and we're dead. Reapers come in all forms. If you can imagine it, there's probably been a Reaper like that somewhere in the stream of time that Reapers have existed, which has been since the beginning of life.
But, I remember, there was once a Reaper, who wasn't dead. He was a live human. The boy's parents were so desperate to have a child that his mother made a deal with the Underlord. In exchange for the ability to birth children, the Underlord commanded the couple’s first child. Reluctant though they were, the parents had to comply.
Oh, you want to hear the whole story of the boy? Well, I suppose I could tell you....

((It's not stealing. It's taking and not giving back. smile ))
Jason had spent most of his life with his parents, but he wasn't with them anymore.
He stood in the middle of a large crowded room. He was shoved and jostled from every side by creatures he didn't recognize. The putrid smell of death hung heavy around him and Jason felt like he was drowning. Off in the distance, he heard his name called.
"Jason, hey, Jason. I'm talking to you!" Suddenly, Jason felt as though he had been dropped into a vat of ice water as something passed through his solid body and appeared on the other side.
It was Ryn.
"I'm talking to you." She hissed in her icy voice as she floated a couple inches off of the blood covered floor. "Listen!" She shrieked.
Jason snapped from his trance. When Ryn shrieked, you heard it. "Sorry," He mumbled, "I'm just-"
"Scared?" Ryn jumped on the end of his sentence. "You should be, this is an intimidating place if you're new, much less alive." Jason began walking for the end of the room where the dead creatures began filing into lines to receive assignments of who was to die that day and take a portal up to the living world.
"Do you remember your first day?" Jason asked Ryn as their line crawled slowly forward.
"Oh, no dear." Ryn smiled and laughed, which sounded like nails on a blackboard and made Jason cringe, "I've been doing this so long, I don't remember much at all. But relax, it won't be that bad." She wrapped an arm that came out of her long slim body around Jason's shoulders and the same freezing feeling came over him, and he fainted.

Christopher scowled as he moodily tapped his foot. Ugh... This was taking forever! Didn't these people know he couldn't just stand here and wait in line all day long? …All right, fine. He could stand here all day without doing anything other than waiting. He was dead. He had nothing else to do. He understood that. …But he didn’t like waiting!
“…What the heck is taking so long?” he hissed out quietly, giving his head a small shake of disgust. This just sucked… He was a reaper for goodness sakes! He didn’t enjoy waiting or doing this job but that was the only thing available to pass the time! That and he occasionally got to visit the living world…
“Jason, hey, Jason. I'm talking to you!"
Christopher frowned and quickly turned his head slightly, curious as to who was yelling. They were being awfully loud… “…What the heck?” he mumbled, raising his eyebrow at the bickering duo. That boy looked really out of place here… Like he didn’t belong in this sort of place… Which was weird. Everyone else seemed to fit perfectly well in this busy and crowded area… So why did it feel as if that kid had… The kind of aura the living had?

Jason sat up, sputtering and gasping. "Thanks for coming back." A voice inside his head cooed. Slowly, a stream of black stretched from his chest and pooled on the ground. Ryn slowly whipped herself and smiled down at him. "All set?" He slowly nodded. "Then let's go." She weaved herself through the bodies. Jason stumbled up and jogged to follow her.

Christopher sighed as the line he was in sluggishly moved on forward. ‘…Just exactly who was that kid?’ he thought glumly to himself, giving his head a small shake of disbelief. That boy, Jason, seemed to be… Well. Not dead. As in the kid was still alive. But that couldn’t be possible. Everyone who worked here were already dead, right?

"Ryn, wait!" Jason called. He'd lost sight of the only creature he knew.
The inky demon slipped through the crowd, quite literally. She fazed through the chest of a black haired boy. "Hello Chris." Her teeth flashed as she spun to smile at him before vanishing through the back of an ogre
Jason stumbled as slowly stopped next to Christopher. "Have you seen," He stopped and breathed deeply. "Seen a long, black, uh, thing?"

Christopher raised an eyebrow at Jason. This kid was… Kind of odd to say it simply. It seemed as if this guy was new to the whole “reaper” thing. …Which wasn’t at all surprising, seeing as he did still have a faint aura that the living had surrounding him.
“…The "long, black thing" went through that ogre. I doubt you’ll be able to catch up to it though…” he murmured amusedly, giving his head a small shake. This was going to end up being a very amusing and tiring wild goose chase for this kid…

"Urggh." Jason murmured. "I give up on her. Just stand here." He glanced over that the boy several times. "You dead?" Jason asked.
Ryn looked over the crowd from the gates that led to the portals to the surface. "Where did he go?" She asked no one in particular.

Christopher raised an eyebrow. That was an odd question to ask in a place like this. “…Why yes, I’m dead. Because if I weren’t dead, I wouldn’t be doing such a gruesome job like this,” he remarked dryly, shaking his head in disbelief. Really. He was no different from any of the other reapers here… No one was alive. Everyone that worked here were all dead.

"Is it really that bad?" Jason asked, standing up straight. He couldn't rely on Ryn to tell him anything. She'd always laugh and tell him not to worry about it.
"There you are." He jumped at the steely voice of the demon.
"Oh hi, Ryn." Jason stumbled to speak. He laughed nervously. "Lost ya there for a minute."
"I should say so." She muttered with a flat look in her red eyes. "Now follow closely." Ryn slipped off.
"Uh, I'll see you later." Jason called back to Chris. "Maybe."

Christopher blinked at the question. So the kid really was new around here... “It depends. Some of the souls we collect are a bit… Crazy or are in denial of their death. They usually like making us chase them around the continents…” he murmured, rubbing the back of his head lightly. Hmm… Now just exactly who was going to show this kid the ropes around here?
His unspoken question was soon answered as Ryn materialized in front of his vision. Ah. So she’d be his tutor for a while… “…See you,” he murmured quietly, gingerly raising a hand into the air as he watched the duo march off. Those two would certainly make an interesting pair...
