bizarronia | I'M GONNA MARRY THE NIGHT...RAY *OONTZ OONTZ OONTZ*

Oww... that hurt. At least his left arm wasn't bleeding as much now. Cursing inwardly, he peeked from behind the half destroyed wall, only to confirm those creatures were looking for him.

One... three... four. Four of them. And they were between him and what seemed like a path into the forest. He frowned deeply. There was no cover on the way, and the creatures would surely find him as soon as he moved from there.

Tch... where's Leo when I need him?!

He had no other choice. If this worked, he would confuse them and leave them behind... but he had to be quick. They reacted strongly to noise, didn't they? Well, he'd give them noise! His right hand went immediately to the hilt of his sword... He'd give them a good cut down if they managed to reach him.

He took a deep breath, ready to run and circle the old building. All other things in his mind were secondary.

Blood. Pain. Humpty Dumpty. Vincent. Leo. He could think of all that later. Right now he had work to do.

"Want a piece of me? Then come and get it!! I'LL TEACH YOU NOT TO MESS WITH ELLIOT NIGHTRAY!!!!"

*** Next morning...

[There's a wounded Elliot unconcious in a sunny patch in the forest, reason why he's not dead ~~again~~. Feel free to poke him.]

Don't get offensive or I'll send you right back to where I found you.

[The children.

His brothers.

Vanessa's head.

Mother.

Humpty Dumpty.

Pain.

Vincent.

...yes. He remembers dying.

Why was he here?]

If you really are Death, then why would you bring back a dead man who left with no regets? I did what I had to do, so that they could do what they had to do.

Yes, I remember that. It was nice seeing one like you. Self sacrifice is one of the greatest weights a human can put in the Scales.

However, you are here to play a game with some gods, nothing more. After the game is over I'll send you right back to where you belong.

You call that self sacrifice? Don't make me laugh! I only did what I had to do, nothing more, nothing less. I don't need the pity that comes with self-centered heroes!

[....all other words got ignored.]

The Scales are tricky and I don't expect a dumb human to understand them.

~~[.....you're so fucking on.]~~

That coming from a dumb Death who can't keep its people dead.

[Come back in 5000 years when you can actually offend me xD]

I was taking out the trash and I must have mistaken you for a bag of rotten food ♥

Is that how you missed the Baskervilles too? Or didn't you actually realize your trash was mixing with your duty?!

People sometimes politely ask for their dead people back, so I return them.

I'm not in a hurry to collect souls, I just wait for them. The more time out there, the greater the chance of them changing for better or worse.

What's the point of people dying if you can bring them back anytime?! What good would it do if people who lived their lives at the fullest were pulled back? Or people who threw their lives away, why would they deserve a second chance?

It doesn't make any sense! The end is the end, and you had your time to make it worth!
