It will consume you, suck you in like you would a breath of air. The only difference is that you won't need air anymore.

"You will need nothing." I whispered in the ladies ear, gently touching her neck, feeling her last heartbeat. My lifeless eyes gazed down at her as I placed one of my black feathers on Pearl. Her last breath escaped her dead body and I narrowed my eyes. I had told her she needed nothing. I granted her wish, I allowed her the truth about death.

Yet.

She snuck a useless sliver of air. You don't need air, you don't need prayers. You won't need money. Nothing. Death is nothing. Just another stage of being human. With an angry grunt I extended my wings, then wrapped them around myself, shutting my eyes and leaving her family to find her in the morning.

They had been sorrowfully awaiting her death, knowing age would soon claim their beloved. Space whizzed by me, time having no effect. No matter where I stopped, the distance would be the same wherever I went. Ending my travel and uncurling the addition to my body the space warped to what I pleased, obeying my every thought.

Deciding on a simple bed, no lights needed, I laid down and concentrated on finding my next set of lives to collect. Trying to pinpoint where most people were grasping on to fringes of the life they had left. 13 in Austin, 27 in Stockholm, 9 in London, 42 in Tokyo.

Japan it was.

A small mirror molded itself into one of the walls and I approached it. My reflection showing for a mere two seconds at most. The only thing that was able to be seen of my body was Black wings, and silver eyes. Mist and smoke made up my body, shrouding and denying me, my identity.

The mirror displayed the humans I was meant to collect and where they were. With that, I began my journey.

Some were scared, shaking in their death beds. Hoping they wouldn't die, begging for it to come later in their life. Apologizing for all the mistakes they had made in life. Fearfully holding on to the hands of their loved ones. While tears streamed down the faces of everyone present I watched in the corner. Waiting for the exact time for me to take their lives.

"It's gonna be ok Will, you'll be someplace better soon." Shaking me head, the mother gently stroked Will's bald head. Attempting to stay strong for her young son.

"Mom..." Moving swiftly through the crowd of humans I placed a feather on his chest, and shut his eyes.

"You'll be ok." I answered Will's wish and sobs echoed throughout the room. Family and friends cradled each other in sadness, the stench of emotions quickly filled the small space and I went to the next person.

"Yeah, this is for the best... I mean. What the point of living if you're just a nuisance. It's not like you have and friends anyways." Touya spoke to himself as he looked back in forth from the pills in his hand and a photograph on his bed. "I don't even have a family anymore."

He turned towards me and though he didn't know it, was staring straight into my eyes. Baby blue eyes filled with tears and remorse. "Why did he do this?" He clenched the pills tighter and turned around. "I hope you get what's coming to you. I want you too die along side with me, suffering. I hope you suffer..."

Touya threw all the pills in his mouth and swallowed forcefully. "I wish for you to suffer, Eren Jeager." That's just more work for me kid, I thought to myself. His body convulsed and he fell to the ground. I walked closer to him and placed a feather on his chest.

"He will suffer." Great, now I have to find the Jeager kid. Looking at the dead body, cringing. I shuffled through his room. He didn't live with anyone so his body would just rot in here until either a friend. Though he said he didn't have any, and his family was gone. Either dead or living far away.

So unless they try to contact him and get worried, and come to check on him... Touya's body will probably be here until a truancy officer comes to investigate him. No matter what I was not to interfere, so I left his lifeless body and went to find out more about Jeager.

~~~

"God killer." Typical. Of course he would have some Destined-To-Do-Great-Things type name. Eren Jeager. Eren God killer. Lucky for me, I was no God under any circumstances. Quite the opposite in fact. Sitting on the now King like bed I fell back. Wrapping a blanket around me, even though I wasn't cold, or had the capability to get cold. It still felt nice... Feeling the thick fabric wrapped around me.

The mirror made its way to my side and I picked it up. Seeing my dull eyes another time, the view morphed into the image of a teenage boy. Yelling angrily at a girl with short hair and a scarf. She glared back at him, wrapping her fist along the neck of shirt and yelling back.

He pushed her away, shouting more and ran up the stairs. Slamming the door he threw himself of his bed. Punching it continuously, taking deep breaths as his eyes darted back and forth dangerously. Was this his way of calming himself down? Eren the God killer with anger issues.

Fuckin Fantastic. I'm going to have to find a reason to kill this guy soon so I won't be stuck with him. I continued watching the boy and slowly he calmed down. His punches becoming slower and lethargic, finally he came to a stop. Curling up into a ball with clenched fist. "I'm not useless." He said quietly, un-clenching his hand and staring at it sadly.

"I'll prove it. I'll prove too everyone, that I am capable." So, he a Brat, with anger issues and a I'm-gonna-prove-everyone-wrong complex. Couldn't Touya wish for something easier? Like, what was going to happen to him? Or, will I need a coat? Almost anything is less bothersome than this.

I've done it before, it's just annoying. Having to follow a person around, finding a reason to... Well, kill him. I put the mirror down and lifted what would be my arm, I could feel everything. When I move my fingers. I feel them. If I touch my face. I feel it.

I see nothing though. Completely blind as to looked like, I didn't even know my name. I just know what I'm supposed to do. Deliver Death. So I do. Standing up and walking around, plotting what to do. Bringing my wings closer to me I smoothed them down, all the feathers completely regenerated and full. It always sucks when there's a major war and people are dying non stop right next to each other.

  My wings are constantly needing to rest, allowing the feathers to grow back in place of another. Even if it's just for five minutes. Any time I get I take it immediately. I can't do anything without my feathers. Their what aloud people to pass on, acting as a holder for their soul. Absorbed into it, then destroyed. Never to be seen or used again.

I honestly don't even know where humans got the idea of the Afterlife, it's absurd. Dying to just go to another life. One that supposedly everything you could wish for, if you abide by certain rules. If not, you were cast away into a place to be tortured for eternity.

No.

Then there's the people who believe in past and future lives. Saying that were all reincarnated. What's the point of that? If that was true, then the people that are alive now, have always been alive. There would be no true births because apparently we've already had a life. They simply can't remember anything. No again.

Stretching out my wings I traveled through the void, searching for Eren Jeager.

~~

His hair had gotten messier, and he didn't even bother to change his clothes before falling asleep. Breaths coming out softly and chest rising up and down against his bed, slumbering peacefully. I inched closer to him, soundlessly standing right above him. How should I do this? Maybe I should try something new this time?

Contemplating on how I could make him give me a reason to take his life away. Just make him mad I guess. I could drive him crazy with fear until he acts out? Or just manipulate him. Sighing I rubbed my temples, deciding to just wing it for now. Willing myself to let my presence become known, Eren started shifting uncomfortably feeling that something was wrong.

He has good senses I'll give him that. Slowly he turned onto his back and took a deep breath. His trip to the mind-scape officially ending and returning to the world of wake. Eren sat up slowly, hands covering his eyes as he rubbed them. Letting his hands fall, blue green orbs tried to focus on me.

"Took you long enough brat."
