The purplehired sighed, rolling her eyes with a ‘if-you-say-so' look. Phi tucked some of her hair behind her ear, and crossed her arms as she rested her gaze at her sister's head on her shoulder.

"Were you really that tired?” —Another sigh. Although she actually had no problem at all having her shoulder as a pillow, she certainly do have to wonder when and why her sister get that tired. “What were you doing, anyway?”

[enigmaofthanatos]

Hanging off the other, Mu listened as Phi questioned her with multiple sighs. How rude, she thought playfully yet held her tongue. Of course the only times when the girl would be so tired was when she went on binge collections or...

"I was... moving masters favored stash." The devious reaper proudly declared with a hushed tone, as though their Lord could have been listening at any time.

A shudder followed her words.

His.

Even if it was the first time he spoke with one of them, there was no other explanation given. Not at least about who was interested in him. Thanatos, God of Death. Who else? That… Those weren’t good news at all. He couldn’t lie to himself much more about the obvious fact: she was there, probably, for the same reason he was able to see when Death would come.

The question (“why?”) had always loomed in the back of his mind as he got older, yet he never dared to make a real attempt to discover it. Call it intuition, or however you want… A part of him simply knew that no good would come of pursuing it.

Nonetheless, the time for ignoring that one part of his self was over. And not because he wished so. If he wanted to retain the soon-to-come happiness, he couldn’t keep hiding any longer.

"Whoever is the interested… I want to know what it is." He spoke with determination and, winning over the fear that filled him full, he started to close the distance between them. He wasn’t going to stop till he had what he wanted.

[enigmaofthanatos]

Mu kept a straight face from under the shadow cast by the mask.The man now held much less fear by the tone of his voice. Or at least he was hiding it well. But, with his approach, instinctively she stood her ground. She was not frightened by the much bigger and most likely stronger male before her. 

"You're special.. It's as simple as that." She gave the vague answer. Not yet was she allowed to answer that question so directly. But perhaps a hint or two so that Elef might be satisfied somewhat.

"Soon you will be closer than ever to my Lord. And much farther away from which you desire most. That is why he is interested." Stated the purplette with a tone of natural morning; something which was usually used between her and her other half.

The young girl smiled upon setting her eyes at the newcomers—some of their faces ringed a bell, some not. But, nevertheless, the purplehaired decided to greet them, offering out a hand as she speaks. “Welcome to Hades. I do hope you enjoy your stay here.”

[enigmaofthanatos]

"Needn't you welcome me to my own home, sister." Mu, flipped her hair over her shoulder with a sigh.The long ponytail swayed behind the woman as she approached the fellow reaper and lazily curled arms around her neck, almost hanging off of her. 

"I am tired. Be my pillow."

He didn’t make any movement to close the distance between the shadow and him. He limited to confront her eye to eye, trying to evaluate the situation. It was all so odd that he found himself having a hard time to understand what was happening.

What was clear to him was, at the very least, that he wouldn’t be die anytime soon. Not when his happiness, a long-enduring one, was so close of his reach. Just some months more… A bit more and every sacrifice would be totally worth it. He had a promise to fulfill with Rose, with the woman that he loved.

And he wouldn’t let anyone steal his life before he had seen her again.

"That hardly explains anything. What interest does have a servant of Hades in this land of the living? More so in a simple mortal." His words were just a bluff, and it was quite easy to notice: the tension filled his body and his voice wavered even if it was just slightly.

'Simple mortal' was hardly a good definition for him. And certainly he shared an unwilling link with Hades. Yet… That was a part of himself he didn't want to explore. Not when he was so close of finding his long lost peace.

[enigmaofthanatos]

So simple minded a man, only wishing to see what made him happier than to look at the entire picture before him. Though she knew the answer, she still wondered why a man as such would have been chosen by her Lord. Even so, she would never question his decisions. 

"It is not my interests, Kyrie Elefseus." Pale hands turned up so her palms faced the sky as though gesturing to some unknown being which quietly and invisibly loomed above the male. "It is His." Mu placed emphasis on the last word only in respect to Thanatos.

This special man would soon learn the meaning of what she'd just spoken of. His true and dark fate in which she was to watch over until it befell him. Far was Elefseus from a simple mortal man. 'Twas obvious that both recognized that fact clearly. 

Standing there in her silence, with no other task than to watch over him, with or without his knowledge of her presence, Mu placed and adjusted the mask of bone over her eyes.

Warning of Death [@enigmaofthanatos]

Not long after he saw that one shadow, he noticed a new one. One that, after a short while, he discovered that was following him.

The first thing he felt was, as it was to be expected, an enormous fear filling his entire body. His limbs went numb from anxiety as he tried to think in a proper way to act. This was the first time something like that happened. He could see it… yet he didn’t have any proof for it being an useful asset when it came to avoid his own, incoming death.

What could the reason be? Purple eyes scanned the surroundings in search for anything that could bring him to his end. The road, however, was quite peaceful at the moment. The sight of the slave aside, it was just a lazy day in which nothing happened.

How could such a morning be the moment selected for his demise?

There was something that didn’t fit in the whole situation. Another reason. Something, anything, had to exist to explain that. But how could he know… if, controlled by his panic, he had still to look at the shadow directly?

He gulped. It was time. He turned around, confronting the shadow.

"Why are you following me? I doubt this is the time for me." It was… a strange one. She? looked more like a lady than the typical shadow. What could that mean?

[enigmaofthanatos]

Silent steps behind the duo-toned male. The fear of her follow obvious through the shadows of the bones over her eyes. She bore him no ill-will, no aura of it either. Though quietly, she could act as though his personal reaper to amuse herself. Twas perhaps the only time she'd be able to do it before his place at Thanatos' side was claimed. 

Finally the moment of truth had arose and the vessel had confronted her. Curtsying to Elef, Mu spoke from the safe distance she was at. Not wishing to make too much contact with the man before the time was correct. 

"I am here to watch over you." A simple but truthful reply from the woman's pale lips.

Warning of Death [@enigmaofthanatos]

A shadow.

How many lives had ended before his eyes with him unable to do anything to help? Time and time again… He saw how the end approached others. He knew from the start. Why him? He had asked to himself that question repeated times without answer and, at the end, he had learnt to live with a knowledge that shouldn’t be allowed to mortals.

Everytime he saw those shadows going after people in the streets, he felt guilt pressing his chest. Anguish. He felt powerless. And this time… Ah, this time was no exception. A slave caught his eyes in the streets, walking with heavy feet towards the home of his owner.

It wasn’t that difficult to see that his health wasn’t good, yet he had the ultimate confirmation of how such a story would end.

Moreover, no matter how much he desired to save him, he knew that avoiding death was close to impossible. Once the shadow was there, it was the end. In other occasion, he would have maybe tried his luck in twisting his destiny: gave him even if it was one day more.

However, in his situation, that was risking everything he had. He had found his sister and, soon enough he hoped, Rose would come back. A new future was about to start for him. That was what he believed.

All without knowing the shadow getting closer, the one menacing his happiness with a sure death.

[enigmaofthanatos]

There was pitch surrounding the servant, with only a few flickering violet flames to light the way. Yet, she could see perfectly well. Eyes directed only towards the one speaking, Thanatos, as he gave her a distinct order. She was to watch over the vessel claimed by her Lord, the god of Death. Then, with a curtsy, she placed the bone mask over her eyes and quickly vanished from sight.

Into the world of the living, the reaper rose, one target in mind. Elefseus. From the shadows, Mu watched him, more silent than nights new moon. Unlike the lackeys which roamed only for their collection, this particular reaper had a thought process of her own. She would wait and observe until perhaps the male turned and noticed her, or was alone in a more discrete place before she would confront him. 

Very well could the desire to assist those on death row be seen in Elef's eyes. it was rather pathetic how the human mind worked, wanting to fix what is not broken yet. 

Adjusting the mask on her face, Mu let out a small sigh of boredom. Why couldn't Thanatos have given the task to Phi instead? Watching this guy was extremely boring. He could at least move around again or something.

The almighty store isle.

[sixthscorpse]

"How the point is continued to be missed here. Oh well. What can you do with your type."

[enigmaofthanatos]

"..."

[sixthscorpse]

"Collectors do not kill."

[enigmaofthanatos]

"Souls should not wait for their collection."

[sixthscorpse]

"Gathering."

[enigmaofthanatos]

"In a very large quantity."

[sixthscorpse]

"Fufu, disgusting yet exciting. Would be nice if they were reaped in high amounts."

[enigmaofthanatos]

"What the Hades do you think I am doing right now?" 

[sixthscorpse]

"You’d be surprised how many there are," he mocked.

[enigmaofthanatos]

"The living are weird."

[sixthscorpse]

"Playing cat and giving my ‘master,’ or ‘affection’ rather, all he deserves."

[enigmaofthanatos]

"Oh Moira--  Not another cat." She blatantly speaks. That was getting to be a little much, perhaps a strange fad that would fade away quickly.

[sixthscorpse]

"Why would it matter if I did this at night or not? Here is not the only holder of death and therefore it should not matter." Really now. Have a better excuse.

[enigmaofthanatos]

Huffs a little. "Extra is extra. Both eternally busy." And her, but she didn't mind that at all. "What caused this little up rise?" She kneels over two bodies, collecting the souls in unison, the small purples floating into her hand.

[enigmaofthanatos]

"I am not a mere servant. I am one of the favorites." She huffs. 

[sixthscorpse]

"Ah.. A mere servant to death. Yes, we had the pleasure of meeting a time or two. However your master is not who I contract with. No need to bother me now."

[enigmaofthanatos]

"I am not here to try to take you to Thanatos this time. I was passing through, collecting the souls you murdered. He won't be happy about the extra work so late at night." She declares, violets staring into the red of the other's eye.

[enigmaofthanatos]

"One who has looked death in the eyes six times and yet still walks with breath in his lungs. He who should be in punishment and still is free. Rokudo Mukuro, we meet again."
