[ WP ] You have been the Grim Reaper for the last 2000 years , and have always viewed and experienced the entire life of the person you 're to take the life of . You 've never shown mercy and have always collected the life when time ends . Until you experience the life of a sicky old man .

I have reaped the souls of many over the course of my years as death. Souls of the good, the bad, and everything between have always been sown by another before I pluck them from the Earth at their appropriate time. Even the ones that believe it is n't their time or ask for just one more opportunity to do what they wish, must be taken without question because, well, its just the way my job is. To me, it never mattered where they were at in life. I just carried them over with ease. Never once had experienced trouble in my task as I had even had to pluck sweet children from the arms of their mothers. However, it all changed when I was tasked with taking the soul of David Mckiny. I watched David from the day he entered the Earth, and never before had I seen someone as special as him. He always thought of others first, always trying to help others before even contemplating his own commodities. I approached him on the fateful day at exactly noon. He was old now, no longer in his prime as he was finally about to lose his battle with cancer. I approached him as the hourglass emptied completely to the bottom. I spoke to him,'' David you must know who I am at this hour.'' 
 He answered not necessarily speaking to me,'' If only I had helped more.... If only I could have have had more time! How dreadful to go when so many more need help!'' 
 At this moment I found it immensely hard to fulfill my task. I was not met with a man begging for more time only to waste it on fruitless trivialities. I was met with a man who wanted to bring grace to more people. He wished not to make his life better, but only cares to try to improve as many others as possible. I finally brought myself to say,'' David you have been a good man, but death is one thing which is inevitable, and not even I can grant time when someone is due. You must come along now with me.'' He allowed his soul to leave his body, a tear running down his face as he did. I extended my arm to him and he obliged. If there is one final peace to the journey is the experience of seeing one's life pass by as I guide them to the next step. I saw, as we walked, countless people who David had helped, most of which he had n't known and would never see again. Every part of me wished to guide him back to his body, but I knew I had a task to fulfill, and I knew I had to complete it. After a long while of walking down the path, we finally came to the gateway where David would continue without my guidance. I never know where the person will go once they enter, but I knew David would go to a place that would have the same passion in death as he did in life. I never had such a hard time seeing someone move on, and I sat a while thinking of how tragic it is for someone like David, genuinely the best kind of person, to be taken from such a cruel world when he one of the few people who deserved to stay. Anyways I found myself contemplating to long, and I moved on to reap the rest of the souls I had to fetch that day.
