Reaper's Scythe

When Hearts Forget

One is three, and three are one.

She is one, and one is five.

When five are one, and five meet thee,

We'll become one, and one is three.

Forced into the Underworld after his untimely demise, Jeph faces his forgotten past-and the heartless bastard who made him forget it: Tartarus. Yippie for him-thanks, he hates it. But that's the least of his problems, considering Tartarus forces Jeph to forget his heart and do his bidding.

Now the ruthless monster he always feared he would become, Jeph reaps the souls of the wicked, while rejecting the love he once felt for his friends. They're judgmental assholes anyway, so they can rot for all he cares.

But when he's confronted by his destiny, he'll have to choose between remembering his heart or dooming his friends to fates worse than death.

What does he care if they're in danger-and why would he risk his soul for people who never loved him anyway?
