Third Person
The Kishin is dead. He was killed by the team Spartoi. Death the Kid became the new Lord Death, taking his father's place but instead of simply taking all of his father's powers, causing his father to die, he took his form and soul. Lord Death's form changed to that of a middle-aged looking man, his own sanzu lines disappeared and, only go half way around his head.
This was something Lord Death did not expect. He expected that Kid would take his power and soul which would kill him but it didn't, the two simply switched places.
Kid was surprised as well, especially after Lord Death had explained his theory on what he thought would happen. After years of feeling guilty, Lord Death forgave himself for cursing his son to be bound to Death City, like he once was.
Now Lord Death walks down the hall of guillotine gates, heading to the center of the Death Room. He just returned from a trip to Europe. He wore a full suit with a tailcoat, and a strange looking top hat as he now stands before his son. Death the Kid's full reaper form, is very similar to his father's, the main difference is his "head" since it is a more distinctive hood. The other difference is his opened collar which shows a shirt's collar with a skull broach.
"Father, you've returned. What did you think of Europe?" Kid asked, his voice is much deeper and resembles his father's old voice from 800 years ago.
"It has changed greatly since I was last there. I guess the entire world has." Lord Death answered, his voice was still a silly high pitch.
"That happens when you stay in one city for centuries."
"I guess it is something that I have to get used to." Lord Death chuckled slightly at his own arrogance. Kid notices his father's fake chuckle.
"Father…I've told you several times, I was and still am fully prepared to take on my duties as Lord Death, even if it means being unable to leave Death City." Kid reassures
"I know Son… and I don't doubt it but I still feel a great sense of guilt."
"No need Father, being bound here is one of the many responsibilities I've accepted, and something which I have to deal with as your successor."
"You should be allowed to roam freely, you are still a teenager after all. If I had simply had the guts to kill Asura."
"Father, no one blames you for not killing him and besides I'm not a child and "roaming freely" is a simple price to pay, if I'm to maintain order."
"You have always been a serious child and still are but being guilty would probably make you worry so I'll give it up."
"Thank you Father and you were bound to Death City for a very long time, now that you are free, you should enjoy the world you've protected."
"I will Son, I will." Lord Death began walking away
"When I return, we should have some tea, maybe then you can explain the new technology in this world." Lord Death continued walking away, waving from his turned position.
"I'll try, and enjoy your next trip." Kid waves with his new giant hands.
"I truly am sorry Kid, but I am proud to call you my successor, to call you my son." Lord Death thought as he left Kid's vision, heading for the Death Room's exit.
A/N This was in my mind for sometime,especially after I saw a picture and was inspired.
