xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

First off, may I introduce myself, the name's Scott Porter, I'm one of the head doctors working in the Hospital wing within the reaper's realm, my appearance and such are not really important for I am but the narrator in our little story...

Are you sitting comfortably? Then we shall begin...

Over my time working in the Medical wing, I've possible seen everything that any doctor would find himself confronted with during his medical career. But in my profession opinion there is no wound that can pain us greater then losing someone we love, especial after witnessing them die before your own eyes, knowing there is nothing that can be done but still wishing with their entire being for a miracle.

I think the most prominent case of this in my mind, is that of the resident Stoic Supervisor, William T. Spears, whose existence isn't quite as straight forward as most would assume it to be. He wasn't always the cold and emotionless leader he is today, but rather a mild mannered individual.

What happened? I hear you ask... well like most things it only took one incident to change him for good, in this case the for mentioned incident was an attack on both him and his partner, Mina. It was a little known fact that they secretly were lovers, and had been for a short while after they first teamed up, around 50 years before.

But I digress, this fateful day was much like any other, they both ventured into the mortal world for a two person assignment, both being professions it was completed in good time, leaving them free to take a break, enjoying each others company before heading back. Unfortunately that's when it started to turn bad, a high demon had homed in on them, taking the opportunity to strike while they were distracted, naturally going for William, after deeming him as the biggest threat.

After the initial surprise had passed, the three of them started to quarrel, exchanging blows, eventually William and Mina brought the demon to his knees, using their decades of team work to better him. As the last act of desperation, the demon snatched up a shard of Mina's blade, that had broken off during the fight and lunged at Mina, forcing into her chest, perching her heart and using it as a distraction to get away.

The gravely injured Mina fell to William, who hastily scooped her up into his arms, completely forgetting about the fleeing demon, taking off, returning to the reaper realm and beelining his way to our department. He point blank refused treatment for his injures, only leaving her side when the nurses told him, less then kindly, that his presence was disrupting the doctors work, forcing him out into the waiting room.

Where he stood waiting what must have to feel like years, but in reality it was only just over an hour, until he was finally confronted with the verdict... and as you may have already guessed from my introduction, it wasn't good news... that Mina had died, the shard has gone in too deep, for her to have even the slimmest change of recovery.

Just from looking at him the moment he heard, something broke inside him, although he shed no tears, it was clear as day. Minor injures was what the doctors confirmed his condition was, once then got him to agree to treatment... but the same couldn't be said to her emotional well being, the damage to his heart was as substantial as Mina's.

His heart refused to heal, so he simply forced a shard of ice in the gap and just carried on, the ice slowly freezing the rest of his heart, leaving him emotional as frosty as the harshest blizzard...
