You Kill People for a living now!
Where the hell is she? Jessica thought as she wondered were Nicole was. She had spent the better half of the day walking around L.A waiting for her, and now she sat alone in a diner attracting strange looks from everybody. Perhaps it was the fact that she had been sitting there for the past hour and hadn’t ordered a single thing, or maybe it was the fact that it was 90 degrees out and she was sitting there all dressed in black, and was pale as snow...she didn't know and she quite frankly didn't care. She sighed and looked down at her newspaper at the obitchuaries, then something caught her eye so she read on Jay Freeman age 30 dies at home this weekend of an overdose, Jay will be sorely missed by loved ones... and it went on. Jessica smiled at this, she knew the reaper who was sent to do this job, Katie..."hope she's having more fun then I'm having" Jessica mumbled to herself. Just then Nicole walked in; she would have to get use to traveling that way, and spotted Jessica and walked over to her table. "Hey sorry I’m late, Mark had a hard time finding me some new clothing..." Jessica looked up from her newspaper, and saw Nicole in her new clothes. She had on the same black skirt and jacket, and white shirt as she did; her hair was tied in a ponytail as well. Nicole took the seat opposite her "meh, its ok...now about your training..." she said putting her hands on the table and folding them "I'll start you off on something small, like a homeless person, that’s why I picked L.A..." She stopped as she saw that look come over Nicole's face and she looked down at the table, Jessica sighed angrily "look, Nicole I know dyeing is hard, trust me I know, but your going to have to get use to one fact...” Nicole looked up from her blank stare "...and what's that?" "You Kill People For A Living Now!" Jessica said a little more loudly then she wished she had, people in the diner where now really paying attention to them.Jessica took a deep breath in "I'm sorry I didn't mean to snap like that" Nicole gave her a small smile "it's ok, I’m slowly getting use to this" Jessica smiled relieved "ok good, then if there’s no more problems, lets go bag you a homeless person" Nicole cringed at Jessica's choice of words, and both of them got up from the table and left the diner.
They both walked down the street, and turned into an alleyway, there were two homeless men sleeping there, one in a box the other was up against the wall. "Well, that him...” Jessica said, both of them stopping as she pointed out to the one sleeping in the box "...lets see what you got" She pulled out a clip board (out of no wear) and began to write stuff down, Nicole just stood there, confused, she walked over to the homeless man "uh...Jessica" "Yeah" Jessica looked up from the clipboard "what do I do?" She asked looking back down at the homeless man "just bend down a touch his shoulder" her eyes returning to the clipboard as Nicole slowly bent down. She the proceeded to move her hand slowly place her hand on the man's shoulder, when she did his eye's shot open and Nicole fell backwards on her but. The man then seemed to be grasping for air, the other homeless man had woke up at this time "ERINE, ERINE WHAT"S WRONG!!!" screamed the other man, rushing over to Ernie, completely ignoring Nicole and Jessica "Marty...I think...I I think I’m having a heart attack" Ernie put his hand over his heart as Marty tried to clam him down, but it was no use, Ernie took one last breath and was gone. Marty checked for a pulse, but when none was found he lowered his head in mourning for his friend. Nicole's eyes widened, she had just taken a life, she had just killed someone...she sat there in shock, as Jessica made one more note on her clipboard "well done Nicole" she helped the stunned girl off the ground, as she watched Marty break into tears. "Wow...I did that?" was all she could say "yup that was all you" Jessica said proudly. Then out of no wear a man appeared, it was Ernie. "What the Hell?" The man looked around and then saw his body; he jumped back in horror "that’s me! That's my body! And I'm dead! Who are you?" He seemed to go from anger to confusion faster then anything "Welcome to the after life Ernie, I’m Jessica and this is Nicole" Nicole just smiled feebly "...and yes your dead, but all is well, now please go with Lu here" another man appeared he was also dressed in black "Hey Jess" "Hey Lu, take Ernie here back to the department" And Lu did what he was told to, as he took a bewildered looking Ernie back to the Department of Death.
Once they were gone..."Congratulations you are now a reaper" Jessica said producing a certificate saying so. "Thanks. Now what?" she asked still looking at Ernie’s dead body. "Now you read this, and go and find a place to call your own" Jessica said smiling at the new reaper and handing her a book. Nicole took and read the cover "A Guide to becoming a good Reaper" "A place to call my own..?""Yeah you know a home a place to live, dead people need places to live too, just go back to the Department and they'll help you, I'll see you latter" she turned and walked out of the alley "wait!...were are you going?" Jessica didn't turn back, "Home" and with that she disappeared.
It had been a long day for Jessica, longer then she expected it to be, so when she got home latter that day, she was just happy to collapse onto the couch. She lived in a one room apartment in Pairs, that's the good thing about being dead; you can live anywhere in the world. The room was filled with black and white things. The walls were white, the couch and chairs were black, there was a black fireplace, and black curtains. There was a small kitchenette, with no food, and the room had a window that led out to a balcony, with a wonderful view of down town Pairs. The sun was setting and Jessica was laid out on her couch, she had changed in to a silk low cut black night gown that went down to her knees, and was covered with a dark red silk robe that also went down to her knees. She was also drinking, it was her third drink, which was another beauty about being drunk, you can't sub come to alcohol poison, and you could drink as much as you want, sure you'll get drunk, but you’re already dead.
There was a knock at the door, she sighed and took another sip of her drink, placed it on the table and went to answer the door. "Who is it?" She called out, "It's me" she smiled at the sound of Mark's voice and she opened the door. Mark was standing there smiling at her and looking her over head to toe, she looked beautiful with her hair down like that "may I come in?" Jessica smiled "sure" and he entered the small apartment. She watched him take a seat, he looked different when he was at work, tonight he had on black baggy pants, and a white t-shirt. "Would you like a drink..?" she asked walking over to the bottle placed on her counter "yes I would...please" She poured him a glass of wine, and brought it over to re-fill hers. "Thanks" he said and she sat down beside him. Then she raised her glass after refilling it "To new Reapers" "...To new Reapers" and they both took a sip.
After many, many more glasses of wine, the topics they talked about ranged from Nicole to "Why not change from black robes to purple, finally Jessica declared "Mark...I think I'm Drunk" she was on the floor, he was stretched out on the couched, and looked at her with fake shock "no way...Jess I think I'm Drunk too..." And he rolled of the couch to join her on the floor, and the both busted out laughing. "Ohh Mark where such losers...” Jessica slurred as he laid down beside her, "Yeah we are...” they both laughed again and then stopped when they made eye contact "hey Jess what ever append between us, we made a good couple..." She just smiled at this "I don't know, creative differences" He then managed to make it so that he was on top over Jessica with his hands on either side of her head, propping himself up "You know what, maybe its the Alcohol talking but you are the most beautiful thing ever..." Jessica really started to laugh "yeah I bet that’s what you tell all the women in you life...” she gave him a little sexy smile, he smiled back "no, only the ones I love, and you’re the only one I've ever loved..." He then lowered his head a bit more "Mark...” she said almost in a whisper "yeah...” "Kiss me..."
