The black rose of Death

In London, rain fell upon its lonely streets, it was night time now. The homes where locked shut, and windows were closed. Little pools of water began to flood the stone streets. A lady around the age of 20 or so, sat in her bay window and watched the streets become filled with water. She had what all would called a charmed life, but she didn\'t see it that way. Her father was a cold and uncaring man. He killed her mother with his own hands, For no good reason at all. The young lady\'s icy blue eyes couldn\'t take their look off upon the streets. The woman looked on and gave a sad little sigh, standing from her sitting spot and headed off to bed. Down in the streets of London a dark figure walked alone, it seem to be lost. The figure looked up to the stormy sky, then the houses and continues on it\'s wawn twn the wet stone path. This figure was no other then Death and was here to gather some souls, but what he was to find was one soul that wasn\'t going to be to easy to get...the Woman\'s, who was named Haruna Will. Death wasn\'t really lost just taking his time and looking for the right person, Haruna was the last on his list from that area. Haruna was a sleep in her bed not knowing she was on Death\'s list. The sweet long brown haired girl laid on her side in her bed, even looking sad in her sleep.

The next morning, she walked down the stairs of her home and was dress in a very normal dress that was blue and form fitting. It was odd to see her looking so happy, when she knew she lived with a killer, her father. She was 10 when she saw her father choke her mother to death and that did scar her, but she must never show her true feelings for the fear of if she did her father would do the same to her.

\"Hello Haruna sleep well?\" Asked her father who gave her a cold look. She just nodded and walked past him. She walked into the parlor of her home then to the main doors and walked through them and looked up at the bright morning sky and gave a sigh of lonely-ment. A men well dressed walked up to her and kissed her cheek. \"Ah..my dear sweet love...\" It was her to be husband, Jonathan. He had blond hair and looked to be one of those rich ass holes, who was and even more. He too was a womanizer like her father. Haruna\'s father was the one that picked her husband, not her. He was planning to make a better business for him if he had a boy in the family now, he wanted Jonathan to continue on in his foot steps. \"So, shall we go?\": He asked as he gave her his arm.

In town, a man dress in a black cloak and had a black walking cain walked down the stone streets. He had black hair and eyes of red, he looked to be a very handsome man. He moved his head over to the crowd and saw Haruna and Jonathan and gave a little evil smirk. He gave a regal walk over to the two, trying to make his presents known. \"Greetings you must be, Jonathan.\" The man said as he put loo look upon the girl. \"Yes, I\'m and if you know anything..you have no right to just walk up to me like that.\" He lean a little on his cain and rise an eye bow, as his tone changed a little. \"Oh..you believe that do you?\" Jonathan was getting piss right about now. \"If you say another word.....I will.\" He lean close as he some how put fear in the man\'s heart. \"You will what...?\" Jonathan gave a deep glare at the man, and then dragged Haruna away with him. \"Come long...this man knows nothing.\" He watched on, as he went back to standing up right. \"Oh I know more then your mortal mind could ever understand.\" He said with his eyes narrowing and began to glow red.

Haruna and Jonathan later came up to a building, were he worked. He gave her a kiss and told her to be here when he gets off work or else and gave another kiss on the cheek and walked in. Haruna just gave a dark glare at him as he turn his back and walked into the building. \"I wish you dead Jonathan.\"

\"Oh come now..do you really wish death upon this man..Haruna?\" She turn around to see the man she saw a little earlier.
Haruna walked up to him with her arms folded. He walked closer as his cain made soft sounds on the ground. He smiled at the woman, which send chills down her spine. \"Why yes..yes I do\" He gave a nod. \"Yes, I can see why...\" His smile then faded. \"By the way I saw him treat you, nothing more then an item or a piece of property.\" Haruna wonder what he was getting at. \"How do you know my name?\" He grins.\"I know many names..\" She put her hands down to her side. \"Alright then..here is another question..why are you here stocking me?\" He put his hand in the air and put it palm up.\"Now that I can\'t say freely my dear..I hope you can understand?\" He looked at the woman he was shock to find her beauty made him forget his true mission to get her and then go on being the Grim Reaper and doing what he knows how to do..take souls.
*****************************************


Death sat in the study of his domain, puzzled and confused. She was the first he seem to take pity on. Why? He thought. He had her looks dictate his job and he didn\'tlike it one bit. He also knew many things about her only she and he knew. She was also a black sorceress, Death was shock and surprise to see Haruna couldn\'t tell who he really was.

One demon walked into thedy hdy his true name was unknown but all who knew him called him Dark Face he was Death\'s student. \"Master what seems to be the problem?\" Looking up from his deep thoughts his hollow eye sockets look to his student. \"It seems I have been in trapped by one of the many mortals...\" Dark face gave a little laugh. \"You master..no never\" Thinking, Death stood up from his huge black leather chair.

Haruna was in her room brushing her long sandy brown hair, getting ready for her party that was being held by her father. She knew it was just a facade her father was putting up to the others in London, trying to show he was a good and caring father, Haruna could see through his pitiful plans.

Death mounted on his white horse and rode off to the mortal world. Once he arrived there he found himself in front of her home. It was a huge house. Anyone with a brain could see she was loaded with cash. Haruna didn\'t care about money or power she just wanted a better life and someone to love her for who she was not for what she could give. Haruna walked down the stairs of her home where she met her father and others there. He made with she consider a false toast to her and wishing her well on her wedding day. She felt the hands of her soon to be husband wrapping around her, being pulled into a room. He locked the doors. \"Now my lovely I was waiting for are wedding night to do this but...\" He said as he pushed her to the floor. \"I couldn\'t wait so I picked now..so disrobe for me..Now bitch.\" Haruna gave a gasp in shock as she ran to the doors and banged on them hoping one of the good people of the town would here and come to her aid. \"Now now.\" He said as he grabbed her waist and pulled her away from the door and slammed her on the ground as he got on top of her.

She if if she use her magic now she would be turn in for witch craft and she didn\'t want to live the rest of her days in a jail cell. So she closed her eyes as he was about to rip her cloths off, some how at the last minute she was save.

\"Leave that Woman alone.\" Her closed eyes open she remember that voice it was the men she saw the other day. Death walked up to Jonathan giving a hiss of anger. As for Jonathan he was shocked he made it in the room. \"How did you get in here...the doors were locked?\" He said with fear. Death just pushed the man down to his feet and then offered Haruna his hand, Haruna took it with delight glad she was safe from him. Still with her hand in his,,he thought what just happen...why am I helping her? The man came running to Death, but not evening turning around he knew the man was doing this he just place his hand up and grabbed Jonathan\'s wrist and pulled it in a very discomfortable position. Haruna watched on in shock, she had never seen a man with strength before. \"I should just keep bending it until it breaks...\" Death facing him and only him turn his face to his true form the man was more of a little scared boy, as he saw this he kicked and yelled of help. Death let go and open the doors without even walking to them, Jonathan ran to the doors.

\"Thank you...so much. I don\'t know how to say thank you...\" He faced her with his Human form,smilng, \"I know a way you can repay me\" Now he couldn\'t believe he was saying this but.,,he asked her to come with him. He saw her life was more hellish then his know. He thought once there he had her maybe could use her to understand,,human feelings better or something. \"Come with me..back to my own world....I mean.\" He said as he stumbled over his own words. \"Own world?\" She asked herself out loud. \"Yes, my own world.\" He said as he walk\\ed up to her. \"I knew it..your fighting skills....\" He stopped her in mid speech \"Will you take my offer?\" Haruna thought about it. \"I cant stay.\"

\"My dear look around you..is this where you plan to live the rest for your days..here?\" Haruna looked up at him, her eyes looked ready to say something. \"No...I shall come...By how can I be sure you will not do the same as he did to me?\" He gave a little laugh, \"We can\'t...well we could but,,its not me who can decided that, that is you,,only you\"
