I appreciate your reviews, darlings! Theyve been so sweet and loving~! Thank you all and also thank you for being such faithful readers~!

Eric yanked on his hair as he lay on the pew in a heap, the pain in his head almost unbearable. He could feel the demon raging in his mind from being on hallowed ground for so long. The nun was kind enough to let him stay in exchange for meeting with the priest. Now if only the old sod would show up so he could get out of here and get the demon out of his head.

"Nnngh! Would you quit flailing around in there? For the love of god, demon are you trying to kill me?" He cringed and felt a sudden pain in his abdomen, falling off the pew and hitting his head on the one in front, curling up in a ball.

"It's your fault we're in here, reaper! You of all people should know that entering hallowed grounds can be deadly! The fact that we're in here is taking us away from helping that pathetic lump of nothing you're so desperate to protect! Now get up and get me the hell out of here! I'm starting to burn!" Eric cringed and curled up tighter, pulling off his glasses and tossing them off in some random corner. He tried standing slowly and almost collapsed, clinging to the pews and looking around. He sighed quietly and leaned against it, shuddering when he caught sight of the confessional. "You worried about him still? I bet that mentor of yours would have a fit if he saw the state you were in...though from what I see...he was possessed too, wasn't he? And we all know what happens to possessed reapers, don't we?" Eric went wide eyed and stared at the booth again, shaking his head and punching himself in the face.

"Mr. Riley? What on earth are you talking about? Isn't reapers being possessed just some—OW! What the hell was that for?"

"My god Slingby, don't be ridiculous! You think I'd make something like this up? Are you that bloody stupid?" The older reaper slapped him hard across the face again, shoving him against a wall and storming off. "Stupid, idiotic boy! How did you ever graduate from the academy? I bet you'd fall for the first little weakling that came your way, wouldn't you, Slingby?"He narrowed his eyes at the younger reaper and snatched his scythe away, eyes flashing before he ran off after some poor soul. Eric just stood against the wall staring silently and shaking his head and adjusting his glasses.

"Oh Undertaker is not gonna like this, the last thing I need is more overtime...he's gonna kill me..." he shook his head and picked his scythe back up, running after the older reaper.

"Mr. Slingby? Reverend Mother said she'd found a poor soul in the streets, I assume you are him?" The reaper nodded slowly and watched the old man intently. "I am father O'Riley...and you are always welcome here..." The old man smiled and continued on his way. Eric continued to stare at him before following silently, cringing when he felt the demon rage in his head once more.

"Aaahhhhh, get out of my head..." The priest stopped and turned around quickly, staring at the reaper. In an instant, the priest had run back to him and was sprinkling holy water on him.

"I told you it was a terrible idea to come here, reaper! Do something!"Eric shook his head violently and hissed when the holy water hit his bare skin. He felt a sudden burning sensation over his whole body, looking up to see the priest was holding a crucifix to his back. "You idiot, that's an exorcism! He draws me out and you die! Slap him or something, reaper!" Eric cringed and felt the holy water hit him again, finally hearing what the priest had been reciting.

"P-please..." Eric cringed again and summoned his scythe, unable to stand the assault on his body or the demon shouting in his head. He stood quickly and slashed the priest before he could continue his ritual, staring in shock at the body. "What did I...?"

"Thank god! We're one step closer to your precious little Allie sticking arou—OI! Listen to me when I'm talking you no bloody—what in Lucifer's name are you staring at?" The demon stopped raging when he realised Eric was staring at a group of nuns.

"Sir? Is everything alright, we heard a- AAHH" before Eric could stop himself he'd gone to the group of nuns and slashed them quickly, catching all but one.

"Y-you...you monster! How could you?" She stared at the possessed reaper before running past him and out of the church.

"You moron! Go after her! You'll be caught for sure!"

"Boss, this ridiculous. Why don't we just go home?"

"Because Ronald, we've got to find Slingby and eliminate him before he causes any more damage." Ronald stopped flipping through his death list and stared at the older reaper. William gave him a look and straightened up, adjusting his glasses. "Don't give me that look. You expected that we could just welcome him back with open arms? The man is a murderer, Simply giving him a pay cut or a demotion or overtime won't fix this. I can't even fire him, Ronald. The man will be completely erased from the records,"

"He'll be executed..." William nodded slowly and looked over the death list again, going wide eyed when a mass of names suddenly appeared. "Boss?"

"Come along, Ronald. We have business to attend to." He pushed up his glasses again and hopped off the rooftop, followed by Ronald.
