Chapter 376 - Tower- Part 3

Barron continued to wiggle his way out of the chair and to finally stand in front of the chair that had chains surrounded it, "Never underestimate, Barron, the fourth Grim," he huffed whilst pushing the cotton back to its place. Once he felt he was satisfied, he took a look at his fur and gasped, "That little piece of shit! I am going to toast him one day!"

Quickly walking towards the door, his hand reached out for the handle by jumping many times before he successfully pulled it open. As he was caught by a Hawvert, Barron knew the drawbacks as they were more powerful. Stepping out of the room, the two death reapers who were standing on either side saw a rabbit appear in front of him and Barron knocked them down.

"This should be easy," said Barron to himself.

Winston had hidden him away from others eyes, which meant not many knew he was here and that also meant they didn't know he was in a rabbit suit. The only problem here was his scent. He cursed himself, "AHHH! I should have agreed to it! That's okay! Okay!" he quickly consoled himself. The tower contained many reapers who went in and out, which even included different creatures of the dead.

The sooner he would escape from here, the faster he would be able to get back to the land of the living. With that thought, Barron continued to run and hide in the tower as he descended down. It took him ten minutes before he realised something.

"Why am I planning to go walking down until the ground?" he murmured to himself in question, as he stood behind a large pillar. All he had to do was to find a window and jump out of it,

"I am so smart," said the rabbit before going to search for a window.

While Barron was trying to come out of the tower, Belle and the others were planning to get inside the tower to get the rabbit out.

"What do you think?" asked Belle, coming out from behind the big barrel that was present in the alley. Lucas and Greed turned around to see Belle who wore the lowly death reapers clothes that Lucas had 'borrowed' for the time being, not just for her but also for them so that their scent was covered.

Greed looked at Belle who was adjusting the hood on her head, "You need to fix your face. She can't enter the tower looking like this." While Lucas and Greed could turn themselves into skeletons, Belle was still in her pure mortal form. The death reapers robes would not be enough for her.

"I got it covered," replied Belle, before her hand went to search for something inside the dress she wore from the land of the living. Finally, she pulled out the bone that Barron had gifted her for Christmas, "His gift will help in rescuing him," she said and started muttering whispers that sounded nothing less to curses as the air hissed around them.

After taking the bone she had placed on the palm of her hand, she continued with the spells before pushing the bone into her wrist. The bone disappeared and the hissing in the air stopped. Greed turned around to make sure no one had caught sight of them before turning to look at Belle who was still in her mortal form.

Belle frowned seeing her hands that still had flesh and skin. She thought pushing the bone into her body to be a part of her would have caused a change but it seemed like it had only sunken inside her wrist. Was this not how it worked? she asked herself.

And suddenly Belle felt something very heavy placed on her shoulders that made her stagger. She flinched in pain, her lips parting in a silent cry as she felt every pain in her bone and body.

"Belle!" Lucas came to her side to feel her nails trying to dig into his boney arms.

"It hurts!" Lucas heard Belle say and he frowned. Pushing a bone to be a part of someone's body was not heard of. Winston had taken out the bone from his body but Lucas doubted anyone had ever thought about stealing and making use of it. Nobody had ever gone against the Hawverts before. Right now, Belle had pushed not anyone's bone but a Hawverts bone into her body and that one bone was going to change her appearance.

A death reaper spotted Greed who had changed himself back to his reaper form came forward, "What is going on in here?" asked the reaper in a scratchy and curious voice. He looked over Greed's shoulder to see two reapers standing in the alley.

"Waiting for it to rain," answered Greed.

"It doesn't rain in the dead, you fool," retorted the reaper.

"I thought it does," answered Greed, turning around he saw Lucas had covered Belle by having his back against them right now.

The death reaper was curious and he peeked again, trying to get a glimpse before he smelt something very fresh which made him scrunch his face, "What is that vile smell?" asked the reaper. The death reaper was referring to Belle and Greed wondered if he must drag this reaper somewhere away from here but that wasn't going to be possible. Not with some more reapers who were heading towards them from the other side.

Belle in the meantime was warped in excruciating pain and she wanted to scream. She could feel her bones cracking and she fell down on the ground. From where Greed stood, she heard someone ask,

"What's going on in there? Do you have a soul?"

She tried to breathe in the pain she felt, letting the pain sink and she finally noticed the change that started to occur in her body. Her skin and the flesh started to disappear, spreading out from her fingers where she could finally see bones.

Four more death reapers came to gather in front of Greed, curious at the smell they had smelt. Because it seemed like there was a fresh soul, that still smelt like it was alive.
