George walked back to the car in a trance and sat down in the passengers seat. Mason looked around to see if anyone was still there and he silently sat down in the drivers seat and closed the door.
"George are you ok?"
George wasn't ok. She had just met death, talked to it, and stared it right in the face.
"Why me?" She asked out loud.
"What are you talking about?" Mason asked confused.
"Mason I just talked to death."
"Well are you absolutely sure it was death?"
"I am pretty fucking sure it was death Mason."
"This is so fucking weird. Look you seem a bit shaken up so I'll drive back home ok."
Mason and George drove back to the house in complete silence. As soon as they arrived home George ran into the house and checked her frog's habitat. It was empty because the frog got out and ran away but she just wanted to make sure that she wasn't imagining things. To confused and tired to think she made her way over to the couch and collapsed on it. Mason sat down next to her and just looked at her waiting for her to say something but she didn't. After a few minutes of silence Mason turned on the television. A whole hour went by.
"Oh god I fucking hate this show," said an unfamiliar voice.
Mason and George jumped a bit and turned their heads to see death sitting on the arm of the couch. Mason backed up on the couch pushing against George.
"Who the fuck are you?" Mason asked both shocked and frightened to see an unknown kid in his house.
"Chill the fuck out Mason I'm just here to talk to George."
"Holly Christ you're death! Georgie you were right! You were fucking right!"
George stood up from the couch and so did death.
"I don't get it." George said.
"You don't get what death replied
"Why are you talking to me? I mean I am just an average grim reaper like all of the rest."
"You see George that's just it. You aren't just a regular grim reaper. You are special and unique."
"How's that?" George asked.
"Think about it George. Remember Ray? He was killed and it wasn't his time. He was an evil guy and he became a graveling. Now usually as soon as a new graveling arrives it is supposed to automatically find me in a short time but you did something I have never seen any other reaper do. You took a graveling's soul. I don't know how you did it but you did. George I need to know how you did this."
"Wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute." Mason said standing up. "Georgie girl reaped a graveling? George is that true did you reap Ray?"
"Yes but it was really weird and I didn't even know that I could do that. I just touched his arm and his soul popped out and he pretty much turned into dust."
"Holly shit. Did you tell Rube about this?"
"No it didn't really seem like he needed to know about it."
"Well listen George I am going to find out how you were able to do this. You know in all the time I have been around which is since the beginning of time I have never seen any thing like this. Really is quite interesting." With saying that death casually walked out the front door.
George collapsed back down onto the couch and Mason just stood there staring at her.
