His Soul - Chapter Two - Out on the Job
It had been a long day on most of which I had spent on the streets of Downtown Chicago. My job is a strange one but one that I was born into. How I'm not sure for that fact I'm not even sure as to when I took over it. I guess that it was somewhere around my fifteen birthday. My parents had taken me out for my birthday dinner and as we were walking out of the restaurant we saw a young girl standing against the wall. The look in her eyes was if she was dead or at least as if her soul was leaving her. It was an eerie sight like she could look through you and see what you were made up of. My mother and father both had told me to go to the car and wait. But I didn't because it was as if I was drawn to her. I watched as my mother when up to her and came down to her at eye level. A few people went by but most wouldn't even look at her as if she had a disease that they could catch from her just by looking. My mother talked to her in quiet tones for about ten minute. She then gave the girl a card out of her pocket along with a ten-dollar bill. The girl looked as if my mother had just given her the crown jewel or something. The girl seemed to almost glow to me as she walked away from my parents. My mother turned to see me still standing there, as I hadn't moved since they told me too. She looked at my father who was smiling at me. My mother came up to me and asked me what I had felt. I told her that I felt at first as if the girl was dead or that she was losing her soul. She was shaking her head yes at me. My father then asked me how I could help her. I looked him in the eyes and told him that I would show her that she was love. And that the soul stealer was wrong that she was a person who could love. When I looked back at my mother she had tears in her eyes. My parents then hugged me and took me home. It was later that week that they told me that I was born into a job that someday could save the world. I remember thinking about this and almost laughing till it hit me that they were telling the truth and that I already knew this. Over the next three years they taught me how to spot the ones who were losing or lost their souls. They also taught me how to spot a soul stealer by the glow that came off of them. The glow that was caused by the soul that they were stealing calling out for help. In the three years that I was trained they showed me the spells and potions that could stop a soul stealer in his tracks. The one thing in those years of training that they never told me was that each time they help a soul return it showed the soul stealer more and more of their soul and how to steal it. I lost my mother and father to a head soul stealer one night just before my nineteenth birthday. I watched them die and couldn't do anything to help them. The last thing that they said to me was to keep doing what the world needed me to do. And to always remember that I am loved and can love. So here I am just a little over ten years later doing as they had taught me. It was a tough day as I won one back but also lost one two. Somehow I had missed the little boy but had found his mother. She is mending in a safe place but he is gone thought he is sleeping in her arms. See to take a person soul is taken in a way a lot like some of the legends about vampires. A person is bite but not on the side of the neck. No they are bite on the back of the neck near the back of the head. Once bitten a small amount of soul is stole right away so that in its place a drop of the soul stealer salvia is left. This causes the soul to start leaving the body. When the soul is totally gone the soul stealer returns and claims the body. Some times a soul stealer will steal the soul but not return to claim the body for years. So that the body is a reminder that they are out there and that you could be next. Which is why no one will look at a person losing his or her soul. No one but a soul giver that is. At least that is what we are being called right now. I am not the only one and I have learned for a few in the passed ten years. To return a soul takes a power of sorts over the person. It also takes a spell and potions and they sometimes hard work finding someone that person loves. Sometimes when the victim is young it is harder because there are so few that they love. That is how I missed the young boy today. Today of all day because today is my birthday. I know it is because I had brought myself a present. See I had a man that I loved but he didn't love me enough when the soul stealer came. So tonight for my twenty-nine birthday I am going to a WWF wrestling match. Maybe there I will find someone to love me before a soul steal comes for me too.
Author Notes ; I know that this is most likely strange but as of right now I can't get it out of my head. I don't usually write like this so please let me know what you think.
