He laughed at the Emizel’s response. “Do I look like a messenger to you, kiddo?”
Had he a heart, Xigbar was certain he would have liked this boy. Though unintentional, he had come across as a comedian of sorts. It was almost a shame they could not speak longer. Circumstances being what they were, humor it would do nothing in Emizel’s favour. Only the reapers skill alone would save him as he stepped across thin ice. Xigbar may not have been capable of feeling emotion, but he could feel the tension in the air with ease. The moment a crack appeared under the boy’s feet Xigbar would make his move.
His fingers twitched in anticipation, ready to summon his arrowguns at moment’s notice. “It don’t work that way.” The Nobodies eyes narrowed. “Besides, someone is waiting for you. Someone you lost at the gates… You don’t really want me to tell them you gave up on them, do you?”
