The Reaper's Run
The Reaper’s RunBy Brooke FreemanMomma drew the coat collar close around my neck and buttoned the last button. She then smoothed the edges of the sleeves before giving me one last quick squeeze around the waist. "Remember," she said somberly. "The crows are your friend." I nodded, throat tight and unable to speak. It was time to go. And we both knew it. The town was waiting for us. It was a cloudy day outside, ominous grey clouds hanging low over the village.
