Chapter 17: Blessing Of New Roles:
Diana smiled as she placed her pale hand on the dark brownish grey hoodie Support Reaper's shoulder "Upon my blessing and faith, I grant you Megumi Kitaniji, a new light to work about. To this day you are a Harrier Reaper."
"Thank you, mam." replied Megumi humbly as he dipped his head with respect, "I won't fail you."
The Composer's lilac eyes twinkled as she murmured, "I know you can…"
She moved on to the last Reaper who wore a dark grey hoodie with his hood down revealing his reddish violet ashen hair that had a red bandana on it, "Your name is?"
"Sho Minamimoto! Zetta mam!" declared Sho as he saluted her with a large grin on his face.
The other newly made Harrier Reapers looked at him with disdain while Kazumasa covered part of his face in annoyance, 'Alas, I feel as though Diana has made the wrong choice. Sho is too arrogant and isn't willing to cooperate with others. Nonetheless though, his leadership qualities mask all the quirks he has…'
A soft chuckle from the Composer surprised him "I'm sure your lively spirit will help your fellow comrades. And from watching your sister, Nagisa Minamimoto, I know you will do well." she put her hand gently on his shoulder just like the way she did with Megumi "Upon my blessing and faith, I grant you Sho Minamimoto, a new light to work about. To this day you are a Harrier Reaper."
"Zetta awesome!" shouted Sho into his megaphone; everyone except the Composer clasped their ears from the volume and pain.
As soon as a second had passed the Composer withdrew her hand slowly as she looked at each new Harrier Reaper "You may all remove your hoods, I deem that you no longer need to hide your façades."
For a while they looked at each other in bewilderment before the first to lower their hood was Megumi, upon without his hood his hair was black and sleek as a raven's.
His misty jaded eyes half closed as he dipped his head to the Composer "Of course… What the Composer says is decreed to us."
The other new Harrier Reapers looked at each other before doing the same but slower.
"For now…" started the Composer as her hair was levitated by her psychic powers, "You all may relax in the Death God's Pad until the next day has come. From there you will receive instructions from Kazumasa."
The Conductor stoked his long dark brown hair before dipping his head "Yes, my Composer."
After looking at each new Harrier Reaper, he beckoned them to follow.
As the Composer watched them go, she closed her brilliant lilac eyes with a sigh "Kazumasa… You should know by now what is coming. The signs are clear…" she reopened her eyes and promenaded to her quarters "My waning of power, it draws great loss to me. It's a struggle to ward off my madness, and it is truly is, in the end… my battle forlorn."
She halted as she slowly rested her hand where her heart would be, "Hmm… I sense, great sadness… It's from, the one I've been expecting... To express this, is not a sin, but also not a virtue…" slowly she looked up the dark ceiling above.
After a few moments of lament she went on "It is from the depth of one's soul unmasked."
Once everyone settled around or on the couches in the Dead God's Pad, they looked at Kazumasa as he spoke "I expect you all to not wander… If you do I'll know lest of it."
"The zest of his wafts are in play," stated the largest of the new Harrier Reapers, "Hints of bittersweet too!" He had dark brown dread-locks and that mirrored his eye color, his whole body was bulky and hefty plus his fists were larger than normal peoples.
Next to him was a Reaper with puffy orange hair that held gingerly a dark orange lollypop as he shrugged "Yep, that's true Yodai." his eyes glinted for a second as he added "I believe we are not rascals, or is it that you need to be reminded sir."
"Talk like that will earn your erasuture," Kazumasa's midnight blue eyes flashed upon his warning before he began to stride the way they came, "Shallow your tongues and behave."
They all watched him go before huddling together again.
Megumi gave them all a cold stare as Sho screamed "Zetta awesome! I mean, the pull of the planets' obit goes down and trapped while I fly high and free! Ha!"
"Sho," said Yodai Higashizawa as he raised his overly large fist face up, "The taste of the universe can never find you."
"Or your brain…" added the lollypop Reaper as he twirled his lollypop with his fingers.
Everyone laughed except Megumi who rested his hand on his face in sulk. They all ignored him as they chatted about how weird Sho was, though Sho did nothing but laugh along.
Soon Megumi left them and went over to gaze around his surroundings.
He saw that this place was elaborate and velvet lined, other Reapers were nearby most likely either other Harrier Reapers, or just Officer Reapers. But he noticed that some had their eyes on him, especially two Reapers that were female.
One of them was slightly short and had dark fiery red hair that went below the chin and curled at the end, her pretty pine green eyes twinkled as she spoke.
She wore a velvet blazer that was fiery orange like fire with a neat white blouse underneath, plus she bore a puffy bright amber scarf that was like the sun. She wore a dark copper skirt that went above her knees while wearing ebony boots that went almost to her knees, the boots had unique details on the rim and sides like fancy feathered wings.
The Reaper next to her was lanky and had long black hair that was put into a bun; at the back of it was a loose ponytail. Her eyes were cobalt blue and she held a small black book, and she wore sapphire blue lipstick.
What she wore was a dark aquamarine spencer that was buttoned up with silver buttons, and under it was a pale blue grey tank top. She had long skinny black jeans and ebony boots as well but looked plain and not detailed like the other Reaper's. Around her neck was a azure teardrop pendant.
"Hey!" said the dark redhead as she smiled at the other Reaper with a dreamy look "Blazers look cool. I mean, important people wear them, so I should wear them." she blinked as she tilted her head to one side "And spencer are cool too… I guess…"
The black haired Reaper boredly opened up her black book and replied in a monotone "I never insulted what you wore, Seiki, you assumed I did. A rash manner." she looked up slightly with one eye looking at the book and one eye at Seiki "Well?"
"Oh?" Seiki looked surprised as she giggled sheepishly "You just said 'blazer' and 'spencer' so… But hey, a honest mistake."
Suddenly she looked at Megumi and waved "Hello." she looked at the other Reaper "Nagisa, it's one of the new Harrier Reapers. How great is that."
"That's true…" replied Nagisa dully with a nod now looking at him as well "The fact now is that we have not one, but five Harrier Reapers now." she cleared her throat a bit "You have new blood to teach Seiki, you must be honored."
Seiki nodded as she mused happily "Yep. I guess I won't be a rabbit running over the place from the fox, eh?"
Nagisa blinked slowly at her "You mean to say that you are acting as the rabbit, but who is the fox, Seiki? And why would there be a fox?"
"It was a old saying I learned in school," her pine green eyes dreamily closed as though she remembered old times "But past is in the past! There is no fox or vixen."
She took a deep breath before she reopened her eyes as they brightly twinkled "Well, do you think I should pioneer myself?"
The black haired Reaper rolled her eyes as she went back to reading her book boredly "It's your choice, Seiki. But I will come with you."
"Sure," said Seiki as she looked over her blazer before nodding, "Alright!"
Megumi wondered why with curiosity of what the Reaper, Seiki, had said. Was there really only one Harrier Reaper before them? But he was amused how they were; friendship seemed utterly worthless to Megumi. He had no need for friends. He liked being alone.
The only person he trusted was Yodai.
Yodai respected him as his student, Megumi knew a lot about food and Yodai begged him to teach him. But after two years in the Reaper's Game when teaching Yodai, he started to talk in cooking terms in his speech.
But in the end, he messed up with trying to cook because of his poor arithmetic talent. He couldn't really calculate the measurements right yet.
When Seiki and Nagisa came over Megumi nodded to them. The first to talk was Nagisa "So… The newfangled time of becoming a Harrier Reaper, do you regret it?"
"No, I think of it as a pleasure to owe." replied Megumi coolly meeting her eyes.
"But Nagisa is right!" exclaimed Seiki with a shake of her head, "You need to be able to run all over Shibuya, but most times we have no order to do anything. So tedious, don't think of this job as a free card out of Wall Duty."
Nagisa nodded to her before dully putting in "This is Seiki, another Harrier Reaper. She has been a Harrier Reaper for five years."
The misty jaded eyed Reaper closed his eyes and gave a cold response, "I have no need for warnings. Or friendship of the sorts."
"Ho~oh~no!" scoffed Seiki as she gave him a icy stare "You better listen bud, you will be creamed out there with that attitude. Better listen to me, newbie." She wagged her left index finger at him "Or, you'll be sor~ry!"
A chuckle from Megumi made Nagisa roll her eyes "Boys are arrogant."
"I know, ri~ght?" whispered Seiki in a hiss in frustration.
"Just to be curious," said the male black haired Reaper louder than both of them "Are you a Officer Reaper? And are you, Nagisa Minamimoto, really Sho's sister?"
Suddenly Seiki cringed and looked at Nagisa startled when she replied dully "Yes, to both. I've been an Officer Reaper for seven years, as for being Sho's sibling… I am his older and only sister."
The only thing Megumi could do was remark "You seem nothing alike."
"That's the way I want it." Nagisa had her book open a ajar before she snapped it shut with her hands, "Ancient matter should be forshakened. And you must learn to keep and refrain from pry."
"And if I don't?" asked Megumi in a sneer.
The Offcier narrowed her eyes at him in a scowl "I will keep a eye on you, to personally erase you, if any matter of your wake could lead to the end of the Reaper's Game. You need it, because I know you mettled with two Players, giving them information that might lead to your end, and ours."
To be continued…
