On earth, Shinjuku, Tokyo.
Wait, is Tokyo not in the territory of the Shinigami clan? Why are we responsible for this now?" Morgana asked with a puzzling expression.
"20th September 2019 Kyoto. Do I have to say more?" Thanatos answered with a dark expression: If eyes could kill, then his could now cause a mass genocide.
Right, there was this incident." Morgana's mood hit rock bottom when she heard what he said and remembered that on this day something unforgiveable happened.
"You can be angry when we are back, but let us finish this fast, okay?" Thanatos felt that she needed a push back to reality, and it worked. Morgana awakened from her stupor and focused again on their mission.
The two of them stood on top of a huge skyscraper. Thanatos looked all around the area to see if he saw anything unnatural, but he only saw one thing that made him interested.
"Look over there, a witch; maybe she knows something about what happened with the souls?" He pointed down in the middle of the street. Morgana needed a few seconds to find out where he pointed and had to accept that his eyes were extremely good. It was hard for her to see things, but then she saw what he meant.
"I do not agree; witches are greedy bitches who only think about money." Morgana shook her head and remembered a time when she got decieved by a witch and regretted it until today.
Yes, but this one is a normal school girl, so getting information from her will be much easier than from an adult witch." Thanatos also had his encounters with witches, but they did not come out badly. He hated their greed but had nothing in particular against them. He was a smart man, and if you wanted to deceive him, someone had to be an expert at manipulating people.
But before Morgana was able to give him an answer, he jumped from the building and landed right in front of her. He made sure that no one saw him doing that.
"Hahh! W-Who are you?" The young witch screamed while falling on her buttocks. She got up again when she saw that he had given her his hand.
"I am sorry if I scared you, but I need to ask you something. Are you free to answer my question?" He said with a seductive smile, he knows that he is good-looking, and he used it.
"Ehm, okay if it does not take long." The young witch took his hand and agreed to go with him.
'Well, as long as he is handsome, I don't mind, and I'm a witch, so if something happens, I can always kill him with ease.' The young witch had no idea that he was a grim reaper. She had never met one in her life, and so she fell for his trap.
"Wow, I never thought he would be so upbeat and take advantage of his good looks. At the same time, it scares me." In Morgana's opinion, the most fearsome beings were men and women who knew that they were good-looking.
10 minutes in a lost place
"Wait, you two are Shinigamis!" The young witch screamed in shock.
"Well, wrong clan, but yes, we are, and do you know something or have you heard some strange rumors? Of course, if it is something difficult to say, I will pay you money." Thanatos dry tone echoed through the lost place. He knew how to deal with witches. If you want to get what you want, just give them more money, and they will do it as long as it does not harm themselves.
"Well, then I will tell you. So come nearer to me and be sure that I will charge you an extra heavy sum. Oh, and to make it clear, I am Ishikawa Hana." Hana felt strange all the time during his experience; he just called her witch. She would prefer it if Morgana were not with them, but she could not do anything about that.
"Two weeks ago, a female student at my school disappeared." Many people find it strange; even the police are searching for her. But she wasn't found." Hana's professional tone surprised Morgana for a short time, but she did not show it. Before, she was a normal girl, and now she is in work mode.
"Were there more insidents like this? According to my information, three souls disappeared." Thanatos replied so fast that it surprised the two women. He absorbed the information so quickly that even Morgana was surprised.
"No, not in my school; you can ask my mother. I am sure that she knows more; she always knows everything I can bring her after school." Hana pointed at her wristwatch as a gesture that said that she needed to go. Even if it was related to work, her mother would kill her if she skipped school for another day.
"We will come with you to school and then to your home." Morgana said this while pointing at herself and Thanatos.
"If you want to do that, sure, but don't expect to get much information out of the students or teachers." Hana shrugged her shoulders briefly.
Thanatos agreed that going to your school isn't a bad idea; it would probably be high school, and if they said they were 16 or 17, everyone would probably believe them too.
"Good, but we have to think about our names first. They will probably find it strange if they hear our names." Thanatos said to make sure that Morgana does not forget about this. If they said that their names were Thanatos and Morgana, this plan would not end well.
"Good, you should just think about a modern Greek name. We have to say that we are in some way related to each other, and we have to think about a story about why we are here." Morgana pointed with her index finger towards Thanatos and instructed him. But Thanatos expression said just one thing.
'Since when did we agree that you were able to give me commands?'
"Just say that he is your boyfriend and she is your girlfriend. Then you can get away and talk things out and stick to each other, and no one will find it strange, and I have to say that it is good considering a second manner." Hana closed her eyes briefly, then opened them wide again and said,
"He is extremely handsome, and I do not have to say that you have an extremely voluminous body."
The two of them looked at each other as if they were sizing each other up, and then the two of them said it at the same time.
"You are right."
cought.
Morgana pretended to cough in order to switch the topic.
"Good, let us begin the second stage of the mission."
