Dark clouds filled the sky as it began to people stood in front of a grave,one of them a girl had shocking pink with tears pouring down her delicate eyes.

Another one, a male who had bright blond, had his eyes screwed shut as if to block out a terrible third person was a another guy who had blond hair that stood straight up,with a purple spot in the middle, had his arms clenched at his sides,with tears silently falling from his eyes.

The final member of the group was a girl,with short black who was on her knees openly crying at the name engraved on the stone read

'Here Lies Ulrich Stern,Friend,Comrade'

It was a few days ago,The gang had just manged to finally defeat Xana and shut down Lyok, having been devirtulized Yumi celebrated by kissing her boyfriend for 5 hours,William Dunbar.

Unforntualy,Ulrich had just climbed up from the scanners using the ladder,because the elevator was damaged in the latest girl of his dreams was kissing a boy who until just a few hours ago tried to killed them on many occasions, was too much for him to bare and he ran away from the factory with tears falling from his eyes.

He kepted running until he managed to arrive at his dorm inside he turned and locked the door as he fell on his bed sobbing." c..co..could she" he cried into his a idea formed in his idea,it was the one way he could escape the pain.

When his friends arrived at his dorm room,they found the door was locked,lucky Odd had a key since he shared the room with when they entered the room what they saw shocked them,Ulrich had hung himself with his blanket tied to the ceiling fan.

The funeral was a few days later,Yumi was being conforted by Aelita as they both cried for their friend that wasn't there, when the news of Ulrich's death had reached William all he could say was "bout time,he bit it" and was rewarded with a slap to the face and Yumi screaming to 'Get lost'.

After the service the four friends had stuck around to say final goodbyes."I could help him if you want' came a voice from behind, they turned to look. They saw was a figure wrapped in a cloak that hid his (a/n:they could tell from his voice) appearance,the most shocking thing about this stranger was what he held in his right boney hand.

It was a long wooden staff,with a large blade curved downward from the tip,they took a step back,"Who are you?" demanded Odd as the figure walked towards them."Who me?" the man asked pointed at himself with his left hand which was also boney.

"Well I'm know as the Grim Reaper,but you can call me Death" replied the man now known as Death as he threw back his hood.

Which to their collective suprise instead of the face a skelenton,the face of a boy stared back at them, his face even though looked still had the look and total saddness and regret."And i want to help you bring him back" he contioued,"Why would you want to do that aren't you glad he died" demanded Jeremy as he narrowed his eyes in suspicion.

"I HATE WHEN PEOPLE DIE!" Death yelled at them."DO YOU KNOW HOW HARD IT IS,WATCHING FAMILYS AND FRIENDS TORN APART,AND THE WORST PART ARE CHILDREN AS THEY SCREAM FOR THEIR MOM'S,SO NO I HATE MY JOB"

"Besides all you have to do in exchange is one favor for me and it wil be like he never died" said Death after calming down,The four shared a look before huddling together and talked among themselves for a few minutes before they broke and stood facing the embodiyment of death(literally).

"Whats the favor?" asked Yumi as Death leaned down and whispered in her her cheek flared bright red,"You pervert!" she exclaimed as the others look at her funny."what was it?" asked Aeilta showing concern for her friend.

"He wants one of us to hold his Scythe for a few minutes,becoming the new reaper,so he go take a leak"."What" shouted her friends as they glared at the Reaper.
