Chapter 1
Rivan
I can't believe she just went up and left.
It couldn't be. My best friend, Yotuki Kai has left the DLA*.
Yotuki Kai the reaper.
It's been three years now, and she still hasn't come back. Three years.
Anyways, nothing's really new except for the new reaper, a lowly demon named Pochi(yeah, he's still here, for all you people who read the original one on Quizilla). Oh, and Nora's been sent up to the human's realm, or something like that. I still remember the last words I heard from Yotuki...
I always knew this day would come, and I hope you did too, Rivan-kun.
Well, there's no real meaning to that I guess, except that those were her last words. Kain (Yotuki's older brother) and myself have been coping for as long as we can remember. She was an elite assassin that worked directly under the Dark Liege.
But not anymore.
"Rivan, please come to Kain's office immediately, and if you don't, no donuts for you." Leonard's voice blared through the intercom thing as I was replaying the scene of Yotuki's departure.
~Flashback~
"Please don't leave! Where would you go? What would you do that is so important that you would have to leave the DLA? Yotuki... Why?" A man choked out as tears rolled down his cheeks.
"I'm afraid..."A cloaked figure turned to look into the man's ice blue eyes.
"Of what?" He wiped away the salty tears with his sleeve.
"I can't tell you...Maybe some other day..."And with that, the figure jumped into the portal and into the human world.
"I always knew this day would come, and I hope you did too, Rivan-kun."The voice faded as the figure also faded into nothing.
"No! Why did you leave? What were you afraid of? And...I thought I meant something to you, Yotuki-chan, so why did you leave?" Rivan, curled into a ball and cried in to a deep slumber...
~End flashback~
"Rivan? Rivan! Hello? You alive over there?" The Dark Liege waved her hand over my face. I must've been spacing out again. It was close to the day that Yotuki left and we were supposed to have a meeting on what to do about it.
"Hn."Was all I had to say as I put my head down into my crossed arms. I listened to the ideas that came from Fish face himself.
"Well, we could send out a party to recruit her back into the DLA, she might've healed from the acci-"
Slap!
"Ow! What was that for? All I said was tha-...Oh! Never mind."
"What accident?" I raised my head up a few inches to see Barik rubbing red slap mark on his face.
"Ummm, we didn't say accident! We said....Um...Acci...Axi...Axicle! Yeah, It's a new frozen treat that comes out in glazed, jelly, or powdered! Yeah! Axicle!" The Dark Liege smiled crookedly. They were keeping something from me, and I had to find out what. And that meant an actual vacation to think it over.
"I'm going to the bathroom."I stood up and walked over to the door. No one stopped me, which was good...And obvious. Instead of going to the B-room, I walked over to where the porals to the human realm was, and stepped in to the glowing vortex...
