Hell, you all know who owns what, suffice it to say, I don't own any of it.

Chapter 12: Brand New Day
Granny saw him walk into the room but chose not to watch. Best to see to her goddaughter first anyway. Besides, she'd seen HIM perform his task enough times. It wasn't as if there would be anything different this time. It wasn't as if this man held a larger place in her heart than others she'd seen die. So she turned her back on them and cradled the princess in her arms.
But she listened all the same.
John got up and looked at the cloaked figure before him. "Well, well, an actual Grim Reaper, eh? Haven't seen a get-up like that in yonks!" He pulled a roll-up out of his pocket and lit it.
EXCUSE ME, ER, YOU DON'T BELONG HERE.
"Yeah, that's right." John blew the smoke out his nostrils. "I'm from a different reality, mate."
OH DEAR, THIS IS MOST IRREGULAR. Death reached into the depth of his robe and pulled out a rather fine pipe. COULD I TROUBLE YOU FOR A LIGHT?
John pointed a finger at the pipe and a small flame ignited the tobacco.
MOST KIND.
Death turned around and made a sweeping motion with his hand.
CLAIM HIM.
Cloaked figures suddenly appeared and quickly filed past. One stopped and the rest disappeared. Its cloak vanished to reveal a beautiful young woman all dressed in black. She had white skin and wore an ankh on a chain around her neck.
AH, SUSAN, HOW'S THE NEW JOB GETTING ON?
"The first two millennia were actually quite tedious but, well, you know how it is." Susan Sto Helit kissed Death on the cheekbone. "It's good to see you again, grandfather."
John laughed. "Susan? You're name is Susan?!" Susan sighed. "Come on John, you aren't supposed to be here and you certainly aren't scheduled to die just yet. So let's get you back to London, where you belong."
"But I was on my way to Barbados," John snickered, "Susan!"
Susan rolled her eyes. "I'm never going to hear the end of this, am I?"
Granny Weatherwax turned around and watched as the three figures faded through the wall.
"Awww, what's the matter Suzy?"
"Shut up John."
"Oh Suzy Q Baby I love you..."
"Shut up John!"
"Cheers Suzy."
I'M WARNING YOU CONSTANTINE.
Granny smiled and looked down at the baby in her arms.
Notes:
Did you honestly think I'd actually kill JC off? Come on!
Still one more chapter to go!
