Reaper

The boy walked down the cold alley, the man stood at the other end, the boy turned around and walked the other way, the man was there. The boy slipped on the ice and crawled back up, the man didnt move an inch, the boy couldnt see his face, only darkness, like he was a shadow. There was a defeaning scream and the boy turned and ran, the man wasn't there this time, the boy ran up the stairs to the church and onto the roof, he span around.

No-one.

He turned back around to run and something cracked underneath him, he screamed and looked down....just a twigg. The boy sighed and looked back up....

There was the man.

The boy's scream was cut short by something.

The next day on the news, 2 men had killed themselves the same way.

but further information discovered they had nothing to do with each other.

The next day, another boy was walking down the same alley, happy he was. He realised he was going the wrong way and gently hit himself on the head, he turned around....

There was the man.
