Welcome to the Fifth and final chapter of Jane the Grim Reaper! Hope you like it!
Her First Reaping
Jane found herself desperately wanting to abuse her power the first time she was taken out to reap a soul.
It was a child, maybe six or seven years old, blond hair green eyes, and so skinny you could see the bones sticking out of her gaunt skin. Thin scraps of cloth hung to her skin and they were so full of holes that they did not even deserve to be called clothing.
It was winter, cold and freezing and the young child had no where to go.
Jack, come on, don't you notice the people around you freezing to death? She thought angrily to her self
Jane looked down and shook her head placing blame on Jack Frost would not do any good, besides she had no way of even knowing if this weather was even him. She had learned from Amelia that weather acted on it's own accord, and that it wasn't always the weather spirits that caused the worst blizzards.
As the child's eyes started to close Jane was tempted to wrap her arms around the girl, but Amelia beside her placed a hand on her arm just as she was about to step forward.
"You can not save her from this" Amelia told her knowingly.
Jane looked away angrily, disgusted with what she was about to do, but still continued to step forward. She removed a hair clip from her hair and it grew into a 6 ft. long scythe.
She looked to Amelia for a moment and Amelia nodded egging her forward.
Jane took a deep breath and stared at the young girl for a moment her hands stilled.
Kill? How could she take the life of a child? A child who had done nothing wrong?
She looked around and saw that no one noticed the little girl freezing in the corner. She was invisible to them, just as Jane was. She was suffering, and Jane was unable to do anything for her as she couldn't be seen or heard either.
With that thought in mind she swung her Scythe and it past through the child's body leaving not a scratch, yet the girl fell to the ground lifeless anyway.
Beside the body lay a girl exactly identical to the girl lying lifeless on the snow, except this girl was translucent and no longer looked cold.
Jane turned back to Amelia but she just nodded her head and waved her hands as though to say 'go on'.
Jane knelt in front of the girl as the child slowly came to the realisation that she no longer felt cold. She stared up at Jane unafraid.
"Hi Lizzie, I'm Jane." Jane said, "And I'm here to take you home."
So this is the final chapter to this story, but don't worry I do have planes to place Jane into the My Little Winter Sprite Series if not this story then the one after that.
Anyway as always please leave a review!
