Chapter 2 - And so we can only smile back

JANUARY 15

I was ordered by Evermore to retrieve a new soul. He was a small humanoid cat. He looked albino as had thin white fur instead of skin and red eyes. He had a fluffy white head of hair with two cat ears on top and a fluffy white tail that stuck to his back. He had a gentle face but looked scared stiff. I brought him to Evermore who was sitting on a long red, leather couch waiting for me. When I showed up with a cat boy who was better off being called a kitten due to his gentle look, evermore had a sly grin across his face. He started with, "you're dead now, kitten. No longer an earthly being." Some how the disoriented boy had snapped back into reality. He went from nervous to curious in the blink of an eye. The kitten looked at Evermore up and down and then said, "That explains alot, I guess I was worried for nothing."

Evermore looked incredibly confused, the look he had was strange to me but then Evermore spoke up, "What do you mean, not worried. Your actually dead?"

The kitten looked at Evermore with an amused look, "I thougt I was in the psyche ward again."

Evermore regained his composure and spoke once more, "I see, but i'm afraid i'll have to kill you one more time."

The kitten was not alarmed but was in fact challenging Evermore. I had never seen someone that looked so innocent and dangerous all at once. It was strange but interesting.

Then Evermore stood up and held his hand out, he was preparing to cast "Soul Split." It released a visible aura with a great amont of pressure, that even scared me. But the kitten looked down at himself and freaked out. At first I thought it was out of fear but it was because it was now that he realised he had no clothes on. He shouted, "Why am I naked!"

I thought to myself, "Is that really what you want your real final words to be." But then Eve jumped off the second floor railing above the door. She leaped infront of the kitten which made Evermore cancel his spell. He looked super irritated, but then a big grin etched across her face, she said, "I want to use him in the tournament."
