Susan Sto Helit stepped out of the classroom as the school day ended. She
was very mad. Death of Rats had come in today and entertained the children,
because children can see what is really there. Then he took another
hamster. The darn things had already cost her fifty dollars, and she was
getting past frustrated. But she did not expect what happened next.
Binky came flying down out of the sky, and landed next to Susan on his back was a boy of fourteen years of age. Susan was startled a bit first, but then she got mad.
"If you have stolen that horse, you do not realize how much trouble you are in!" she exclaimed.
"I didn't steal it. Are you Susan Sto Helit?" asked Cameron.
"What? Why? Who are you?" she replied. Then she recalled that Death of Rats had said something about Death adopting a boy to train him as a partner, not a child. Death had learned his lesson the first time. But that was only six months ago! Unless...
"Death invites you to come to visit. I don't know why. I am Death's son, Cameron, by adoption. I have only spent six months total in this timeframe. That is why you only heard about me six months ago." he replied.
"Umm... OK, I guess... Now, are you going to be stupid and arrogant and male and not let me drive Binky, or are you going to be a gentleman and let me control him?" Even out of school, Susan taught good manners.
"You can control Binky?" Cameron asked, bewildered. "I thought he just knew where to go!"
"Good. Now I know that you're telling the truth. Let's go, Binky." Said Susan as Binky took flight.
"Hey! Grandfather's house is the other way!" yelled Susan, after a few seconds.
"I know! We have to get Chaos, as well!"
"Oh."
"Master seemed really upset when he sent me. I think someone has upset the nature of casuality. No, actually, they probably made it furious." said Cameron.
"Wizards? They're always making creatures from the dungeon dimensions appear." asked Susan.
"No. They are not this stupid, even though it may seem that way sometimes." replied Cameron.
As they arrived at Ronnie's Dairy, Ronnie rushed out, carrying his sword.
"'Bout time you got here! Let's go, no small talk, OK?" he yelled at Cameron and Susan, climbing on Binky. They left for Death's house, and arrived as they left. If Death's horse wants to travel through time, you don't argue.
"What is going on, Grandfather?" asked Susan, after the hubbub had died down. Death, War, Famine, Pestilence, Chaos, Susan, and Cameron were all present in a new room that no one had ever seen before, except Death himself.
YOU WILL SEE. said Death, pressing a button on the wall. A panel slid back "He must have spent months on this." though Susan, as the panel revealed... the taker of worlds, the Death of galaxies...Azrael.
YES, WHAT IS IT, DEATH? asked Azrael.
SOMEONE IS TRYING TO BECOME ME. IT IS NOT ONE OF YOUR SERVENTS, THE AUDITORS, BUT A HUMAN. IT IS NOT MY GRANDAUGHTER OR MY SON, BUT SOMEONE THAT SHOULD BE GONE. CAN YOU TELL ME WHO IT IS? BECAUSE THEY ARE TRYING TO BE ME, I CANNOT TELL. asked Death.
IS THAT ALL? I THOUGHT YOU WOULD HAVE FIGURED IT OUT BY NOW. ONLY ONE PERSON IN THE HISTORY OF THE MULTIVERSE HAS BEEN THAT CRAZY. replied Azrael.
NEVERTHELESS, I CANNOT TELL. replied Death.
VERY WELL, I WILL TELL YOU. DO YOU RECALL A MAN NAMED TEATIME? said Azrael.
