The Rain- The Reaper Revealed.

Jim dialled Amy's number. It rang and rang but she didn't answer. He got a little worried. 'She doesn't have a car and I know she wouldn't walk in this storm. I wonder what happened' he thought. He kept calling but no matter how many times he tried, it always came to her machine. He hung up the phone for good, grabbed his keys and cell phone, hurried to his car and drove to Amy's. He got there in five minutes and rushed to the door. He buzzed for Amy over and over but he never got an answer. He called her on his cell about 10 times before buzzing again. He gave up, sighed and sat on the floor. He was now extremely worried and didn't know what to do. If he had a key he could get in but she hadn't made a copy for anyone except for her mom and dad. Her mom. He remembered what happened when they saw each other for the first time since her parents divorced. They had made up and Amy now trusts her mom again. The more he thought about her, the more worried he got. The "what-ifs" starting racing through his mind repeatedly. He suddenly heard a noise come from a far distance outside. He stood up looking outside. He couldn't really see much but rain and a dark figure. The figure walked closer to Jim but stopped in front of the door, his scythe behind him. Jim's cell phone stared to ring. He heard a strange voice sending chills down his spine with every word:

Beware of what you keep inside.
Pretty soon there will be nothing to hide.
Day or night it matters not.
The Rain will fall without a stop.

Jim dropped his phone as he heard those words. The shadow held up a picture of Amy for Jim to see. Jim's eyes widened as he gasped.
"Who arrr." Jim tried to ask but unconsciousness took over as he fell to the ground.

Amy was floating in the middle of nowhere. She was paralysed and didn't know how to get out. She was just there, afraid and all alone. That is until she saw a tall slim figure covered in shadow walking toward her. The shadowed figure stopped when it was face to face with Amy. Amy just stared and tried to figure out who the shadowed figure reminded her of. The shadow disappeared and Amy couldn't believe what she was seeing in front of her.
"You, y-you're, y-y-you. what?" Amy tried to speak but was in total shock. The person in front of her smiled.
"Y-you're m-m-me. but, but h-how?" Amy asked chokingly.
"Actually Amy, you are the one who is me. You are the reincarnation of me. My name is Rain." She said Amy had a puzzled look on her face.
"I'll come back sometime and explain it to you later but right now we have to focus on the most important thing. The Shadow Reaper has returned to Tokyo."
"The Shadow Reaper? Who is that?"
"The one that sent you those little poems. He's come back."
"What? Why? He's been here before? What ARE you talking about?"
"Many years ago, there was a boy. He had fallen in love with a girl who looked exactly like us. But on one unfortunate day, she was walking around the village to get some water for her dying grandmother. She got to the well and was knocked inside by a man running by.
"Nobody knew what happened to her until 3 days later. The well had dried up and the bucket had scooped up her lifeless body. The boy's heart was shredded to pieces. He never got his chance to tell her what he felt for her. 3 more days later he had found out from her mother that she had liked him. He didn't know what to think at all.
"After a week of confusion, the boy had wandered into the forest. And He never returned. He disappeared forever. Or so we thought. Years past and I was born. I was eighteen and the rain started at the end of the school year. Everybody was moved to underground because the rain was endangering everyone who was above ground. The miner's had built everything underground but it was so hard to get food because we needed to grow it with help of the sunlight. But the sun never had shown. It was as if it had abandoned us forever. An old friend and my only love, David, and I had gone back up to the top.
"The Reaper was there, waiting for us. He told David to tell me his secret. David refused and as a consequence, the Reaper sliced him. David was dying and before he was not able to talk, he told me that he loved me. I kissed him and told him that I also loved him and then I drove his dagger through my heart. Just before I died, I felt the warmth of sunshine." Rain trailed off and remembering. Tears were formed in her eyes. Amy was unsure of what to do. She just stood there since she couldn't move. Rain now had tears just streaming down her cheeks. There was nothing but silence.
"Um. Is the rain storm part of what the Reaper is doing?" Amy asked when she thought that Rain was ok to talk.
Rain wiped away her tears, "Yes."
"Why does he use it?"
"The name of the girl was Samantha and she loved storms. Every storm that there was, even if it was just rain, the boy would watch her dance in it. He always thought that she looked beautiful. It's sort of a way to remember her by and it's kind of like a trade mark."
"What does the Reaper want?"
"He wants confession. Once you tell Jim that you love him, the rain will most likely stop."
Amy gasped, "H-how did y-you know th-that I l-love J-Jim?"
Rain smiled, "Everyone that's dead knows everything."
"Oh. That makes a lot of sense. So, what your saying is that I just have to tell Jim that I love him and all this craziness will go away?"
"No I'm saying that the dead know all. Before that I was saying that you tell Jim you love him ASAP."
Amy rolled her eyes while Rain smiled again.
"Amy, if you don't hurry then all of Tokyo will be in danger. The longer you wait, the fiercer the storm gets."
Amy nodded. Rain nodded.
"I'll come see you again Amy, I promise I will explain. Oh, go see Jim, he's waiting for you."
"What?"
Amy woke up in her bed. She looked at her clock, 1:18 am. She rubbed her eyes and got out of bed. She changed into regular clothes and headed for the door. As she reached downstairs, she saw Jim at the entrance on the ground. She ran over to him. He was breathing faster than normal. Amy looked up and saw the Reaper standing over them.
"Ssssoooonnnnn." Was all he said before he disappeared. Amy looked back at Jim. She sighed before taking him up to her room. Once up there, Amy layed Jim gently on the bed. She looked at him for a minute. He looked like he was in a lot of pain, breathing heavily. It was as if he had no air to breathe. She let out another sigh, removed his glasses and put them on the night stand beside the bed. She was extremely worried. She walked to her closet and took out a blanket. She walked out to her living room and threw the blanket on the couch. She walked back to her room. She stood there for a minute then pulled the blankets over him and then she sat on the bed next to him. She pushed his bangs away from his face. They had been friends for a very long time. They always relied on each other and so far have never let each other down.
Amy held his hand and leaned in closer. She kissed his forehead and then brushed her lips against his very softly. His breathing was getting back to normal. Amy gently ran a finger across his cheek. He still looked like he was in a lot of pain.
"Uhh, A-Amy." Jim was trying to talk.
"Shhh, you need rest now." Amy said putting a finger to his lips, feeling the warmth of his breath. He moved it away very slowly with his free hand and began to speak again.
"I-I (cough) I thought that (cough) that y-you w-w-were in (cough) d- danger. Y-you (cough) didn't pick up your (cough) ph-phone when (cough) when I called you (cough) all those times (cough)." Jim said slowly and painfully, "B-before I f-f-fell (cough) to the ground, I-I saw this (cough) shadow. H-he said this (cough, cough) this weird poem a-and th-th-then held up (cough, cough, cough) a p-picture of y-you. I-I (cough) had to g-g-get to you t-to (cough) make sure th-that you were (cough, cough) s-s-safe. Th- then I thought I-I (cough) lost you." He had pulled her down and hugged her tightly. Amy felt a tear go down her cheek. She wanted to tell him now but she wasn't sure if he was done talking or not. "I-I thought I lost you (cough) b-but it was only a dream. I-I (cough, cough) don't know what I would (cough, cough, cough) do w-w-without you." Said Jim. Amy now felt a tear come from Jim. He still hadn't let her go. Amy's head was rested on his shoulder. His eyes stayed closed and he would grunt in pain once in a while.
"Are you ok now?" Amy asked breaking the moments of peace.
"As long a-as you're here I-I'll be fine." He replied shakily.
Moments Past. Jim was still awake and still holding Amy. Their voices had turned into whispers.
"You need to rest." Said Amy
"Where am I going to sleep?" Jim asked.
"In my bed."
"Then where will you sleep?"
"I've already set something up for myself on the couch."
"Ok."
Amy was going to get up but Jim just held her tighter.
"Jim." Amy was cut off.
"Please, just for tonight, could we just, stay like this?"
Amy smiled, "Ok, but just for tonight." Was all she said before they both fell asleep, Jim hugging her and Amy just resting on him. There were now more peaceful moments. And that is the end of chapter 4. chapter 5 still needs a title and it's focusing on Matt. I'll try to get it up ASAP but I just need to think of a title.
