Death Day
Chapter 4: How it happened
Chris, Beth, Wallow and Finn fallowed after the horsemen chasing some poor soul. When they finally caught up to the man, they noticed something; he looked exactly like the Man in Black; except he had a white dress shirt, red cravat, and a black vest.
He ran as fast as he could until one of the cowboys; a fat one with a thick mustache, threw a tomahawk at the back of his leg. Causing him to fall and scream in pain. He cried and screamed in pain, when a cowboy with a black beard, a green dress shirt, and dark brown overalls walked up to the man "Silverstar you bastard!"
The man known as 'Silverstar' whimpered "What do you want?"
The bearded man growled "Your punishment."
Silverstar yelled "I didn't do anything!"
"You know what you did you son of a bitch!" the bearded man yelled back. He then pulled out his gun "Now time for you to receive the same treatment you gave my daughter."
Joseph Silverstar pleaded "I didn't do anything to her! She shot herself to cover up her crime!"
The bearded man slapped Joseph "You don't talk like that about my daughter." He got a devious grin "What if we did the same thing you did to my daughter… to your wife. Sister Nikoletta."
Joseph's eyes went wide "You leave Nikky alone Phillip."
The bearded man laughed "That's Dr. Channard to you Silverstar." Dr. Channard and the three other men drew their guns and began to fire shots into Joseph. When the fire halted Joseph Gave an angry look and shouted in an angry tone just as Phillip fired a shot into Joseph's head; Killing him instantly.
As the horsemen rode off Beth ran to Joseph's body. She fell to her knees "Joseph… this is how he was created… he was killed out of false pretenses."
Chris walked up to her and put a hand on her shoulder "Beth, we did what we set out to do; we wanted to know the origins of the Man in Black and we found out. Let's go."
As they were leaving Finn noticed something; the spirit of Silverstar and left the body and was handed a scythe by a tall, hooded figure; the same looking scythe that the Man in Black carries.
This made fin realize that the Man in Black wasn't joking when he said he was the Grim Reaper.
Now this is the end of this chapter and the next one will show how the Man in Black knew Finn's last name.
