[Overlord24]

Zander was walking around the burned forest. The voice that had been directing him for a year now had told him to come here as this was where his next target was. He leaned against one of the blackened trees and waited, they would come to him, he had no need to search.

[Blueflame]

@Overlord24red had a job to do. The next person to be reaped was a man named Zander in the burned forest. Red showed up spinning his scythe in a circle beside him. He was looking through the charred trees and underbrush. Red saw him leaning against a tree. He walked towards him and said "pal you need to come with me it's your time.". Red hated his job but he did it none the less.

[Overlord24]

@Blueflame
Zander looked at the man and gave an evil crooked smirk. "You don't know who I am, do you? If not, then I'll introduce myself. I am Zander, The Merciless Assassin, The Shadow, The Stone Armed Demon." He removed the bandages covering his right arm, showing the arm that was made of an unidentifiable stone with four crystals inlaid. "From the way you talked to me, I can ascertain that you are a Reaper. This should be fun, I've never had the pleasure of killing one as of yet."

[Blueflame]

"And by the way your talking your not gonna go down with out a fight are you." Red said as he readied his scythe and chains. Red used some chains to wrap around tree trunks as traps to tangle him. Red waited for Zander to throw the first punch.@Overlord24

[Overlord24]

@Blueflame
Zander straightened up and cracked the knuckles on his left hand. "Y'know, even if I do lose, which is unlikely, I'll be happy to die." He then suddenly ran at Red, his hand flaming while the red crystal glowed. He threw a punch, aiming for Red's stomach.

[Blueflame]

@Overlord24"alright then" red said as he jumped back dodging the punch. All the sudden the chains that where on the ground leaped up heading straight for Zander's chest and legs planing on trapping him.

[Overlord24]

@Blueflame
Zander jumped but his foot got caught, so he fell to the ground. The flames disappeared, only to be replaced by a film of water.

[Blueflame]

"Sorry pal" red said as he slowly walked over as the other chains started to close in. He raised the headmens scythe and prepared the strike him down.@Overlord24

[Overlord24]

@Blueflame
Zander pulled his leg free and rolled out of the way. He struck at Red with the water which had become razor sharp.

[Blueflame]

Red rolled out of the way thinking'wow I might actually have some trouble with this one.' red needed to get a opening and fast. Red rushed towards Zander with his scythe angled behind him. He was ready to strike downwards upon the crystal like features of his arm.

[Overlord24]

@Blueflame
The crystals flared and created a thin shield, not meant for long punishment, just enough for Red's scythe to glance off.

[Blueflame]

The scythe struck off creating sparks in the process. Red prepared another strike aiming upwards catching some dirt and rocks in the process flinging them upwards. If that didn't work to break the crystals he had a backup plan. @Overlord24

[Overlord24]

@Blueflame
He stepped out of the way quickly. "Dirt and rocks? I expected better from a Reaper."

[Blueflame]

@Overlord24 "its called a distraction!" Red said as he leaped up into the air and swung downward like a saw blade. If Zander couldn't dodge or deflect the strike with a powerful counter it would imbed itself into his collarbone and wound him severely.

[Overlord24]

@Blueflame
Zander moved but not quick enough, the blade grazed his arm, causing a deep gash, but not as bad it would have been if it had hit him in the colar bone.

[Blueflame]

@Overlord24once red was on the ground he jumped back. Eyeing the damage he done red said " your lucky that was supposed to kill you oh well guess I'll have to try harder." His hood folded down obscuring his face from view he charged at Zander.

[Overlord24]

@Blueflame
"Why," He jumped into the air and grabbed onto a tree branch, "Do you want to kill me so much?"

[Blueflame]

@Overlord24"I don't want to but I have too it's my job pal" red sit as he ran towards the burnt tree Zander was in he was running at the tree till last second he swung sideways cutting straight through the tree it started to fall.

[Overlord24]

@Blueflame
Zander jumped to the ground. "What happens if you don't? Do they have something you need? Are they threatening you? If you hate your job so much, then why not quit?"

[Blueflame]

@Overlord24"heh well it was the only reason I was made pal if plus if I don't reap your by sundown today you start living on barrowed time pal, as in for every second you live after your time is up you are killing someone faster." Red said as he turned to face Zander. "Now are you going to give up or do you still feel like fighting pal?" Red asked as he took a step towards Zander.
