Pulling the strings
(Reapers POV)
I felt horrible doing this to my supposed team mates it most certainly left a bad taste in my mouth and all this for what? To protect the person who I'm deliberately supposed to kill? The one thing I always wanted to be? I sighed at war with my self half of me wanted to drop out tell the cops everything and get the biggest take down ever or I can keep doing this and protect not only my self but Geno too.
I growled in frustration before checking my phone, huh no messages from Geno that's strange usually he texts around this time.. I looked up at the tv it was playing the news and the man was saying something about a attack in... oh my gosh I need to speak to Geno imidiently!
(Genos POV)
I waited under the bridge a bit cold this is stupid I'll give it five more seconds then I'll go ho- "Hello there doll face" I whirled around and saw a Skelton almost as tall as reaper but he had yellow eye lights and cracks on both eyes.
"Who are you." I said trying to sound brave but failing miserably the man grinned deviously "well I'm about to become your new best friend~" I didn't like his tone I backed up a bit fearful it didn't help when he flashed his fangs.
"I-I"
(Flash back)
"Mom! Where are you" I coughed everything was all Smokey some one knocked down the torches in the panic and where now blazing through the fair grounds "D-Dad!" I coughed harder feeling a sharp pain in my soul and mouth I let out one more weak cry before passing out the screams of both children and adults haunted my feverish dreams.
(Flash back over)
I felt my hands shaking as I blinked away the memory finding my voice I spoke up "are you the one who kidnaped us." He looked offended "me? Kidnap you? Geno where the same kind where supposed to look out for each other." He said placing a hand to his chest.
I watched him carefully "now since where protecting each other I need to warn you about your friend if I would even call him that"
Is he talking about reaper? "What about him?" I said suspiciously. something flashed in his eye lights something dangerous something you would see with a wolf cornering it's prey.
"Reaper is dangerous he's pulling your strings." I was silent for a moment before giving a dry laugh "Reaper isn't pulling my strings he-" "cares about you?" He finished my sentence with a mock laugh "did you forget he was hired to murder people like us?? Now listen close, Geno, and I will not repeat my self"
He took a step closer "since we will be friends I need you to do me a favour in return if I give you this."
He pulled out a orange envelope "w-what's that" I said trying once again to sound brave.
He gave a crooked smile "this? This is the thing that will make your dear friend suffer, pay for his actions and face his consequences."
I stared at the folder before looking back at him "why would you give me this me and reaper are friends" "friends?" He scoffed "hardly. Your just a pawn to him, a fracture of a picture. He's using you to see the whole thing"
He took a few steps closer "once you read this you will finally come to your sense and turn against the kind that turned against us." He said darkly I was shocked unable to make words come out he held the folder to me and half smiled but his eyes meant much, much more vengeance in them then his tone ever could deliver to me.
"I know you will not fail me like the others did. You won't end up like his others pawns right?"
I opens my mouth to say something but once again I couldn't speak he leaned in close to me his tone low and threatening "Geno you do know you arnt the first of our kind to be this close to him. They don't call him death for nothing."
He stood back up right and smiled evilly "let's once and for all make them feel our pain. Starting with reaper."
"What's in it for you?" I said my voice a quite whisper as I tried processing everything he gave a victory smirk "once you see the truth bring it to the news paper make them post it do what ever it takes."
He placed a hand on my chin only inches apart from my face, it felt like I was paralyzed half of me was screaming to get away from him to run back to Reaper but the other half was telling me to believe him "I know you won't fail me, keep in touch doll face~" and with that he left me shocked clutching the envelope.
Looking down at it I opened the folder and gasped at what its contents where I really am just his puppet.
