Chapter 6 - Episode 4: THE SCENT OF CINDERS

Red though annoyed and growing impatient, waited for the murderer to leave his dead victim. Guilt ran through his eyes as he frantically ran away from the scene. It seemed that the murderer had his own reasons for murdering the victim, and regretted it after the process. Red sighed and looked at the dead body one more time. So young. Perhaps only on his early 20's. He put the sytche on the body's throat and a red light escaped, emitting a vibrant glow before getting sucked into Red's glass bottle.

RED: People need to chill and love a little. Murders are becoming more and more common nowadays. Even if there's a damn ton of reapers, there's still a damn ton of death tolls and it's pissing me off.

He moved out of the bloody scene and just as he left, a mortal entered the cubicle and screamed after finding out about the murder. More people were eventually entering and were awestruck by what they have seen.

Red makes his way through the murmuring crowd, it took just a short time for the news to escalate. And in mere minutes people were panicking and already leaving the convention. Just as Red was about to go, a certain green eyed girl caught his attention. There was something about her, that seems familiar to him. But couldn't quite make it. Gabby felt as if someone was looking at her, and when she turned her head, met the odd colored eye reaper. There was something strange about his aura, but she couldn't quite point out. They stared at each other for a good twenty seconds, before people started blocking her view of the man.

Someone has been killed. It took a moment for Gabby to recall what was recently happening. It seems as if she got distracted for some time by that man, and she didn't know why it was him. Her heart started racing as she ponder on what it could have been.

Others were left traumatized by the accident, while Gabby was just still, not quite sure how to feel. Tiwari visited her house that night, checking up on her friend and asking if she was feeling okay. Gabby only nodded her head, as she recall the cinder-like scent of the man she saw before. His face, she never have seen, but why does he seem so familiar?
