This chapter has a lot of randomness since I got some less time to think about the chapter...sorry it took so long, Gomensai! And it will be a long chapter too, GOMENSAI!


The Undertaker, King of the Reapers

"U-Undertaker?" I spoke.

He turned to me as we were walking downstairs into a basement, "Hm?"

"A-Are you...a Reaper?" I quietly asked.

He froze, causing me to freeze as well. He look straight to the direction we're going and spoke, "...Indeed, I am, Madison..."

I gasped with my eyes widen, I couldn't believe how right I was!

We continued to walk down as he explained, "I keep it a secret so I won't end up scaring you..

...well...

...I have, Hee-hee~!

But not much like that...You didn't even know about supernatural things that are actually surrounding yourself to end up catching you like a few cats with one little mouse..."

"T-true..." I replied nervously.

When we get to the bottom of the stairs and to a door, he unlocked and open it, "It's been a long time ever since I retired!"

"Retired? What do you mean?" I asked.

He smiled as he walked into the dark room, "Well, on one side, it's because I'm bored of that dump! Killing souls, not understanding about the human world.

But on the other side is a sad story.

Many years ago, a tragedy happened, causing my heart to break, that tragedy is how I earned these scars."

My eyes widen a bit as I stay in the entrance, "What happened there?"

There was a small silence then I heard his voice from the dark room, "Something you'll wait until you're older."

"But I'm seve-"

"When you're OLDER!" he interrupted as the lights in the room were turned on.

I looked around, seeing that the room's completely white with training equipment for sword fighting with a bunch of advance obstacles that looks even difficult for a sword fighter.

I walked in to explore, "Where are we?"

"This is my Reaper Training Center." Undertaker replied as he look at a few pictures on the wall.

I walked to where he was, seeing a bunch of pictures of himself as a Reaper.

He was the same, but with glasses that look like the lens looked cut off, no scars, and wearing a jacket, shirt and tie, and for what shocked me, pretty much the most, he was wearing pants.

His weapon looks amazing, like in any adventure movies or shows, all silver with a skull and ribcage at the top and a very wide curve blade, showing that it's a very tall scythe.

I can see more pictures of him, especially with his hair in a pony-tail, or very short when he was a teen.

I noticed one more that had a picture of him, shaking hands with an eager reaper with dark brown hair with bangs that are pretty much brushed to the right...oddly from the facial structure, he looked familiar, with or without a bright smile.

"Is he one of your students, Undertaker?" I asked as I pointed.

"Ah, you mean William Theodore Spears?" He asked with a grin, "He was an excited lad when he's close to me. He is such a fan, there was even a toy of me from under his bed."

My eyes widen, either from shock or was trying not to laugh, that eager reaper fan was the stuffy William T. Spears!

As I kept trying not to laugh, Undertaker walked to a container and pulled out a small scythe, speaking, "Your training will begin, Madison. I'll be your instructor."

I look at him in bewilderment since he's a reaper and I'm half demon, "Uh...but Undertaker, I'm not a reaper."

"I know, the butler is still teaching you how to have the strength like a demon...but since he's a doll, I shall teach you how to fight like a reaper." Undertaker explained as he handed me the small scythe.

I held it carefully and studied the small scythe. I find it hard to believe that I was actually holding a scythe. I did held Grell's once, but I never held one that is actually a real scy-...

I froze when I realized that it's very hallow...like it's made of plastic.

I tapped the blade and it doesn't even hurt me. I looked at him, speaking, "It's fake..."

Undertaker burst out laughing, he laughed to the ceiling and bang his fist on a wall as he leaned on it, "GOTCHA~!"

"...Huh, what are you trying to pull?" I asked.

"You think I let you use a scythe right now? You're so cute that you're gullible~!" He snickered.

Has he lost his mind when he earned those scars?...Maybe he had his head hit when he was a baby...

When he can breathe again, he got to me and spoke, "Your real first task...is to dust the training room!"

"S-SAY WHAT!?" I yelled as I look around the dusty room.

He skipped away as he wave his hand, "The feather duster is on the right, my dear~! See you in thirty minutes~!"

"W-Wait! What does this have to do wit-"

The sound of the closed-door interrupted my question. I sighed and walk to where the feather duster was.

I was coughing as I dust the entire place, I could tell it hasn't been cleaned in centuries!

But after half an hour later of dusting and nearly throwing up from dead rodents, I completed the room.

I sat on a chair, sighing of my completed work, then noticed Undertaker walk in.

He looked around the room, even checked if there was some dust left over.

In a few moments, he smiled at me, speaking, "Well done, Madison! I never seen it being clean ever since I retired!"

I smiled at my victory, I clapped my hands for that, "Hooray!"

I noticed Undertaker picked up a canvas and a paintbrush, "Now, paint me a picture! I want the place to brighten up a little!"

My jaw dropped completely, I do a lot of great artwork, but he wants me to do this after how hard my hands worked?

I heard him laugh as he set up the easel and canvas, "Your reactions made me laugh! The butler's a lucky man!"

"What's that suppose to me-" I tried to asked about Sebastian being lucky, but he pushed the paintbrush and paints right at me.

"Now hop to it, Bunny!" He poked my cheek then skipped away again like a little kid.

I sigh and started painting, I don't know what he wants, so I just paint him a picture of a bunny.

When he came back and saw the picture, he laughs, "How do you know I like Bunnies?"

I sigh and spoke quietly, "Lucky Guess?"

"I'll go put it in my room!" He smiled as he picked up the painting.

I lowered my head, thinking it's a good time to ask what does doing chores have to do with my training, "Undertaker...what does all of this have to do with trai-"

I was cut off when he gave me a small scythe, this time, it's not made of plastic. He grinned and spoke, "Show me dusting the room, then show me painting the picture, please!"

I have no clue why, but I use my hand in the dusting motion, then in a painting motion.

My eyes widen, realized what I was doing...I couldn't believe how dumb I was when the entire time, I was doing the oldest thing in the book from Karate Kid!

I became amazed, but then I heard an odd noise coming from my scythe:

CLANG~!

I looked at it, but I saw that it hit something that's made of metal...looking like a very big scythe.

I looked up and saw Undertaker was holding his huge scythe!

It's taller than Undertaker with a thorn wrapped skull and rib-cage that connects the top and a huge curve blade.

I looked at his wide grin and I asked in a nervous and confused tone, "W-What are you...doing?"

"Why, this is the best part of training," Undertaker grinned with a glee, "Challenging the Rookie!"

"B-But...It was just for an hour!" I squeaked.

"Don't care," He smiled and held his scythe over his head, "Now...Let's play a game~! A Game called Rabbit hunting...Who will become the hunted rabbit~?"

I stepped back as he was about to swing...I don't know what to think...but I know a good strategy.

Step 1: RUN!

I started running and he chased me, he tried to swing his scythe at me, but I dodged and ducked and continued running.

"Come back here, tiny white bunny~! I won't hurt you, deary~!" He laughed I noticed he climbed up a ladder to a bridge, creating a short cut to get me quicker by going in front of me!

I panicked and ran faster, hiding in a tunnel then peek if he was still around.

I saw that there's no sign of him, I sat on the floor, close to the wall of the dark tunnel, panting of how relieved I was.

That Undertaker really has lost his mind! You can't fight a student on the first day of training, it's not right!

As I breathed, I started to smell the air...I never knew that the tunnel could actually smell good with cinnamon cookies and vanilla ca-

...wait a minute...

I look around then I slowly look up, seeing there's a hole in the ceiling and what was peeking out of it...was Undertaker!

"I got you now, my dear~!" He laughed as he jumped down to me.

I tried to run away, but he was very quick with his scythe when he blocked me a bunch of times.

I panicked as he held his scythe up and I tried to shield myself, but then:

CLANG~!

I peek and saw that my small scythe was blocking his scythe!

I saw him swing again and I blocked his scythe again with mine, then again and again, I stood up from the ground and blocked him again.

We were fighting like we're in Peter Pan when I am Peter and Undertaker's Captain Hook.

It's very crazy, we kept fighting, we even got on the bridge which was very wobbly, but I saw that Undertaker dropped his scythe then looked at me.

He looked surprised as I aim my scythe at him.

Everything was quiet, like we froze in time, but then he smirked, "Congratulations, child, You passed!"

"I-I did?" I couldn't say more for what I've done...I beat a reaper that's bigger and stronger than Grell nor any other!

Undertaker smiled and snapped his fingers, causing both of our scythes to vanished, "That was fun~! You'll end up fighting a bigger enemy than me, so it's a good idea to have some sword fighting...or shall I say scythe fighting? Hee-hee~!"

We headed back up and I noticed that it's 1:30 in the morning, Undertaker noticed and spoke, "Well my dear, I guess it's time for you to head back~!"

When I picked up the Sebastian and Grell dolls, thinking that he is right, I noticed Undertaker was making something in a small black cauldron.

I walked to him and asked, "What...are you doing?"

"Why, my dear," Undertaker spoke as he picked out ingredients and pouring them in the pot, "You can't just walk back to that mansion to stop the Wedding...There are guards everywhere and I know that if they saw you, your dolls will be bar-b-qued~! And I am pretty sure you can climb down, but you can't climb up. So then...I thought of a brilliant idea for yourself, and I'll be coming with you!"

I tilt my head, asking, "And the Idea is?"

He smirk as he grab an empty vial, "The Butler didn't teach you to transform...haven't he?"

"N-No...N-Not at all..." I answered, feeling a little scared.

I heard him giggled as he scoop some of the color changing liquid into the vial.

"Well...today, miss, is your lucky day..." He grinned, "I was gonna make you a bird, but that's too boring...so...with this vial..."

He looked at me as he held up the vile that's filled with the liquid then grinned darkly, "...It'll turn you into a cat..."


I sometimes like typing this:

~TO BE CONTINUED~

While you wait, check out the Deleted Scene~! It'll make you laugh~! And I'll do it in Script form just because I gotten a little lazy~!


~Deleted Scene~

Undertaker grinned: You have done well during training...now I shall give you another activity, which is known as Role Playing.

Madison sigh with exhaustion, thinking it's like cleaning and painting: I don't think I can handle all of this...Why do I need to Role play, anyway?

Undertaker as he gave her the plastic scythe: Why, to make sure you'll be careful who to trust when fighting, just like how a Reaper captures a soul. All humans have interesting, yet sad lives, especially if they are younger than what they suppose to die of...But they didn't give some a 2nd chance of life, they just do their job without a smile.

Madison looked shocked as she look at her toy scythe: Awh...man...

Undertaker nodded: Yep, since we don't have any other trainers, I shall pretend to be the victims!

Madison who looked nervous: This is going to be weird...

Undertaker: First, I'll be the Helpless Old Man~! *he hunched over, pretending to hold a cane then spoke very weak* Ohh deaarrr~! My Poor baack~!

She stood there hesitantly, then lift up her plastic scythe, then Undertaker spoke as he face her: Nooo~ please~! Spare me~! I'm not Ready~!

She tapped his head with the toy and he stood up, smiling: Very good, now up to level 2, and just to tell you...Even babies or little kids end up the same.

Madison's mind: Oh...No...He wouldn't...*noticed he got to his crawling position* ...He would...

Undertaker sucked his thumb: Goo-Goo~!

Madison felt awkward: Uh...*mutters to herself as she lift her toy up* This is so weird...

As Undertaker noticed, he sat up and fake cries: WAAAAAAHHH~!

Madison mutters to herself again: This is weirder... *She tapped his head again*

Undertaker giggled: Good work! Now for one more Level!

Madison's mind: No!

Undertaker: Just to tell you, us Reapers can take a soul from animals. Since we don't have one, I'll pretend to be one~!

Madison's mind: WHHYYY!?

Undertaker got on his fours, panting like a puppy with his tongue out: Arf! Arf!

*Madison sigh, thinking it's best to get it over with, she lift up her plastic scythe, but saw he got to his knees, whimpering as he begs*

She hesitated, then tap his head again, Undertaker stand up: Congrats! You passed this Activity!

Madison: Yay!

Undertaker giggled: That was really fun! ...Let's do it again!

Madison: NO!
