The hard way
(Genos POV)
I hoped I wouldn't be late I strided down those streets urgently hurrying to the apartment to the man who holds everything I have at this moment.
I checked the clock again I still had five minutes, the building was in view and I turned my brisk walk in to a sprint desperate.
When I had made it to the door he was sat on the old couch his eyes turned up to me, "Do ya have it" he growled lowly. I gulped before nodding he stood up "Money." He held out his grubby hand to me, I slowly took the cash from my pocket and handed it to him. He snatched it making me flinch.
He counted it before looking up with a menacing stare "Now was that so hard eh?" "C-Can I have it back now" I said he looked at the jar filled with money he shoved it in to my chest as I fumbled to grab it and he walked out not even shutting the door.
Walking I shut the door and locked it letting out a breath of relief. I held the jar tightly squeezing my eye sockets shut. I opend them and sat on the floor laying the money out from the jar and started counting.
I needed to make sure it was all their. I muttered the numbers as I counted before finishing "$700" I bit the inside of me cheek frustration clouding my mind, I don't know how much more I could survive this.
Rubbing my cheek I stuffed the money back in the jar and stood up looking around for a better hiding place, I noticed a loose floor board curious I walked over and pulled it up.
It was the perfect hiding spot, Hastily I put the jar inside and placed the board back over top to hide it, standing back up I walked to the kitchen grabbing a glass of water before walking back to where my bed is to just get this day over with.

(Reapers POV)
"So who was ya little friend reaper?" Asked my boss leaning forward in his seat it let out a loud groan. "Found Im off the street he needed money and was willing" my boss grimaced "How Do ya know he won't chirp about our business" "if he dose, well I know where to find him"
My boss laughed a loud heaving laugh "Well reaper if your so trustful in your new pal I want him back Hear before the end of the day so I can have a little chat."
I looked off to the side before my gaze flicked back to his "alright I'll see what I can do" he nodded coughing making a motion for me to leave I followed as suit.

"ugh why are we even Hear" groaned Horror Fiddling with his axe he leaned against the old bar with a bored look. SF (Swap fell) picked lint off his shirt with a distasteful look on his face. "I for once agree with that Numb skull" Horror let out a low growl. "Shut it the two of ya are fightin like baby bones" I snapped, adjusting where my gun is.
"Now I want ya both to lay low. If ya got a problem Deal with it" I said turning to the two SF scoffed horror stood up straight and tucked away his axe.
I entered the bar hearing the music on a piano already playing its sweet melody and the soft singing of the girl he was with. I headed to the front seeing Geno playing he had a blissful look on his face, how ever the mark I had seen previously on his cheek was more prominent then before in the blinding stage lights.
I sat down at a table waving a waitress over. Both SF and Horror sat down also keeping their heads low. A lady with to much make up cake over she wore a extremely small skirt and seemed reluctant to come over.
I watched her brace her self as she took her spot at the side of the table waiting for us to speak. "Jus bring what evea ya recommend I don't care" I said keeping my eyes on her own eyes she seemed a bit surprised but I wouldn't blame her a place like this would certainly get some people.
Turning back to the stage I listened ignoreing the twos banter beside me. When the singer stopped singing she took a curtsy I heard people whistle at her not because she was good at singing...
Geno also took a bow before catching my look he had a surprised look, I decided to wink and he seemed even more taken aback.
"Follow me boys." I murmured standing as soon as he left the stage. I stood up and the two followed flanking me on both sides.i exited through the back door and saw the two talking in hushed voices.
I smirked stopping "Ya know we really need to stop meetin like this people will talk" Geno Said with out looking back. My smirk widened, "my boss would like to see ya" I said I saw the human he was with stiffen she looked back with a look of terror and was tugging at Geno to run.
Geno turned around "You said it was a one time thing" I shrugged "my boss wants to see you so he requested me. And my palls" I motions to the two behind me before continuing "to bring you, so we can do this the hard way or the easy way"
He tensed up watching me before he turned on his heel and started to sprint the human in front of him. I nodded and the two flanking me sprung in to action.
They grabbed him before he could get to far he gasped before Horror slammed him to the ground.
I frowned "Horror. don't hurt him" Horror looked up at me confused before he got a elbow to the jaw.
SF hurriedly went to keep Geno still as Geno was wriggling and fighting frantically. Walking slowly around to where his face is i crouched down.
He took in a breath to scream but I was quick and placed a hand over his mouth.
"Scream and I'll tell them to kill you. Simple okay?" I said as the two held him down.
Geno glared before he bit my hand sharply, I brought it back to me, with a glare but it slowly turned in to a smirk, "oh, you've just made a huge mistake~" he gave a confused look before I clicked my fingers and Horror pulled a chemical smelling cloth out his pocket and placed it over Genos nose and mouth causing him to pass out.
"SF Bring the car back Hear so we have a swift time bringing him back to the boss." SF nodded as I threw him the keys. Standing up and looked down at him he looked peaceful with out that scowl I almost felt bad. How ever I did stop feeling bad years ago. Turning around I started fixing my jacket t prepare to see the boss.
