In Yokohama Japan 2019 cold winter night as a snow storm appeared out of no where.

A Forienger from America who was driving through got stuck as the cars engine broke down.

They got out and walked to the vast station which was nearby.

Once they entered they noticed no one was there but the cash register a brunette early 20's green eyes scrolled on her phone.

Once the cashier noticed you she spoke.

Xhuanの24時間年中無休のガソリンスタンドへようこそ。何かお手伝いしましょうか？

*{that means "welcome to xhuan's 24/7 gas station how can I help?"}*

Hey uh my car won't start. *{the Forgeiner spoke in a shy voice}*

Oh english i see.

her voice slightly confused most likely over the fact Somone barely looking 18 was traveling in a snow storm.

Yes ma'am.

She sighed.. Alright kid I'll get kenji out there after the storm.

.. Thanks I'll wait in the car.

No.

*{the cashier's voice turned stone cold}*

... Excuse me?..

It's past midnight she's out there.

Who's out there?

The reaper.

I'm sorry.. I'm not from here... Who's the reaper?

the Forgeiner stuttered they're voice getting more nervous each passing word.

No one knows Legend has it whoever stays out past midnight never is seen again at least that's what the authorities say. Myth says a few years back some sprawny teenageres were in the woods like any idiot they're age would. They brought they're dog German Shepard I think. The dog went ballistic barking like crazy so as curious as those kids were they dug up the ground. Found a dear carcus not shot or stabbed not even ran over just dead pulse gone. They dug up under the dear and found a corpse. Same death as the deer unknown.

You stiffened as you listened feeling you're skin crawl.

The cops found a card under the corpse's body had the man's age, job, family tree all his information the cops found thousands of body's in that woods took moths to find them all in fact I think they found another woods a few miles away with the same faith... Those kids were never found the only reason the police even knew is because of a call they were given by the teens... Not even the dogs was found... Ever since then a law was placed no leaving buildings past midnight until two in the morning... The cards had a yin yang on the back with a picture of a scyth.. Ever since then the murder was called the reaper.. It wasn't any normal serial killer all people were different some similar never exact tho.. The only similarities they all shared was they all were out last twelve. I'll go get kenji you stay here kid.

The cashier left the building into the storm leaving you there to stand in fear.

All I wanted was to get to aunt Katherine's funeral not walk into this stupid town.

You said to your self and in all honesty it was true if it weren't for you're engine taking a nap you would be out of here. Maybe it were for the the best though if this reaper is real the car turning off probably saved you're life then again that lady is probably just trying to get a scare out of you I mean she did go outside past midnight right after saying it was illegal.

You stopped you're thinking when you heard the bell from the door ring. A girl pale clear skin American like you dark brown hair her Face down so sadly you couldn't see here eyes she seemed early 20's slightly taller than you. She seemed pretty cool. Wearing pants a turtleneck pokih out from under her trench coat and can't forget the cool combat boots and gloves Though.. She wore all black nothing more nothing less. It was Japan and everyone seemed to like staying in the norm so they usually wore neutrals or pale colors and in rare occasion dark colors or pure red.. Sometimes with hints of black maybe a shirt or the pants or a bag.. Never everything.. Especially in a storm wouldn't they want to wear bright colors so if they got stuck it was easier to find them?

She walked past you the room felt colder maybe it was from when she opened the door. Perhaps some cold wind came in. She took sharp turns around each isle her footsteps silent no snow in her hair.

Hey uh I can't read Japanese do you know where the mint gum is? It's all pink.

She stopped walking and glanced over the two making eye contact her dark blue eyes cold and deadly. She kept silent for a few moments thinking of what to say.

The ones next to the magazine's

Her voice might have been colder than the snowstorm outside

Thanks

You sounded scared probably because you were she seemed nice but you still felt uncomfortable and it wasn't the fact you never talked to a girl before without getting scared... Actually it probaky was. You looked out to attempt and see if the cashier is back but you saw no one there. You flinched when you heard you're car alarm go off you felt like an idiot you accidentally turned the car off when trying change the radio. Well at least you could go home. You left the building going in you're car. While putting on you're seat belt you saw the girl her eyes felt empty maybe even deadly... She doesn't seen like a normal person. You almost screamed in fear when you saw the cashier bang on the window you couldn't hear her well but heard a faint voice through the window.

I don't know what she said but She's not who she says she is! Drive and never come back!

the two of you froze when you heard the door open and close again the girl slowly walking over her head down

You knew you should have helped her but you drove off breaking the speed limit not like anyone would know you were the only one out there.while driving you saw a guy blonde hair eyes closed next to what you hoped wasn't a dear carcus and a hole in the forest. You drove as fast as you could until you got to a hotel you hid there tears falling down you're face in fear.

The next morning while chewing the gum you Stole you heard a new reporter talking.

2 people male and female mid 20's gone missing authorities asmue it's the reaper once more. The Mayor wants to press the matter and let everyone know that there is reasons for laws for you're safety and for others. Please I repeat please don't go out past midnight

You sat there chewing you're blueberry gum looking at the tv. You didn't know what to think but you knew one thing.

The lady in all black.
