Crowman was there. But unlike to the poster, he had a red beak.
"Crowman?" Boone's lips spilled out words.
Boone woke up. Now the clock had given up on showing something out of the dream world.
Boone turned his head on pillow. There he saw Crowman's poster on the table. But this time it did not have his face on it.
If the face had not disappeared, then he would have taken it as a nightmare but with the missing picture, his day was turning into a bad dream as well.
Panting, Boone stuffed the poster in his pocket and ran to the street. He was surprised to see a lot of new faces in the town.
He waved at the running cabs, but none of them stopped for him. Perhaps a dollar bill early in the morning was somewhat inferior to coffee.
There was no other option for him than to walk and see faces which he had never seen before. It was when one thing hit him.
He was yet to see someone whom he knew.
"You were right." Boone spoke to the woman when he found her on the same spot, "My wife is dead."
The woman removed her mask this time.
"Crowman killed her." Woman said.
"Why?" Boone was devastated.
"Greed took her."
"Greed of what?"
"Greed for reviving Ian."
"He is not dead!" he yelled at her.
"Or he is?"
"You know?" Boone narrowed his eyebrows.
"Maybe I do. But I don’t think it should be of your concern anymore because you are also dead."
"If this is your another attempt to freak me out. Then fuck you!"
"Boone, those people whom you are seeing today. Have you ever seen them before? I know you have not because they are souls of people who lived here. And you will not be able to see anyone you knew when you were alive."

Oh my God! Boone recalled while she continued, "Didn’t you wonder why you had to come here by feet? It is because no driver can see you. Not just your wife. Crowman killed you too."
No words came out from his mouth for a while, "How can I see you if I can't see anyone whom I knew when I was alive?"
"Do you know me? Had you ever seen me without my mask when I was alive?" she grinned.
"I don’t understand." Boone mumbled.
"You will need this." Woman took out a small paper from her cloak and gave it to him.
Boone read:
RULES FOR THE DECEASED
1) A soul can't see anyone whom he knew when he was alive.
2) If a soul is the product of suicide then that soul will not be able to see or contact any other soul. Neither other souls will be able to see him.
3) If a soul is killed by reaper's axe then the soul will be erased from existence. Such punishment is reserved for unforgivable crimes like:
-Unauthorized killing of a human.
-Trying to contact someone whom the soul knew when he was alive.
-Trying to contact Crowman or anyone associated with him.
Under the rules, there were some names of the ghosts which were erased.
"You can keep it." She said and vanished, leaving her mask on the ground.
Boone had little to no idea what the paper could serve him in the state of disbelief. It did not help him other than finding out those who had died recently like him.
Ghosts with the rule paper in their hands were as unaware as him. Everyone had equal concern and disbelief in their faces, which made Boone feel a little comfortable losing his life.

The Reaper's Legion
Earth: An advanced inhabitable world in the ideal colonizable range. Moderate temperatures and consistent weather patterns make this planet an incredible resource, along with a wealth of animals and wildlife beyond most worlds. Inhabited by the sentient species designated “Humans,” Earth would likely have joined the galactic community of its own accord. Levels of technology in local populace indicate a sharp trend towards interstellar travel, but still needs to make the last push to acquire reasonable interstellar technologies. Up until quite recently, Earth has not been a fully classified planet and was largely unknown. Due to biotic activity in the quadrant, however, attention has been drawn to Earth and many other possibly habitable planets in the regions, primarily for quarantine and control tactics. Matthew Todd was not a particularly unique human being before the meteors struck the earth. Average athletics, above average intelligence, but somewhat gifted in marksmanship, the post-apocalyptic earth has been a trial by fire for him and many others. Creatures that resemble bastardized wolves roam the land in packs numbering in the thousands. With entire cities decimated, those that remain are left with the harsh reality that they may be witnessing the end of humanity. And yet, there is a chance. Humanity knows they are not alone in the universe - the wolves are case enough for that - but what they do not know is that they are not alone in their plight. They are not without aid. Obelisks descend from the sky, giving the people a means to fight back. With tools ranging from guns to advanced mechanical apparatus and more bizarre tools, the people must cull the Biotics. Or, be consumed by the ever growing and mutating threat. Join Matthew in the fight to exterminate the Biotic threat, and to ensure the survival of human kind!

MCU Oneshots and Novellas
My back catalogue of shorter MCU fanfiction. Most are focused on Loki, Thor and Odin, but the other Avengers also show up on occasion. 1. Shadows of the Past Yet Loom:Thor thought he had grown out of his childhood stutter long ago, but to his distress, the speech impediment resurfaces shortly after he's crowned as king of Asgard. Loki tries to cheer Thor up. [set between Ragnarok and Infinity War] 2. Another Sleepless Night Thor has brought Loki back to Asgard and Odin has pronounced his sentence – Loki is to spend the rest of his days in the dungeons. That was supposed to be the end of the matter, yet sleep continues to elude Odin. One night, he makes a covert trip down to Loki’s cell. 3. Truths, Lies and Bilgesnipes There are children you can leave unsupervised for an afternoon without courting danger. To Odin's consternation, the two young princes of Asgard are not that kind of children. With Frigga absent and Odin distracted with the minutia of government, Thor and Loki sneak out of the palace on a bilgesnipe hunt. Their short adventure leaves Loki badly injured. But the physical injury is not as potent a force as the secrets Odin is determined to protect or Loki’s desperate need to live up to his father’s expectations. 4. Dear Mr. Thanos The trouble with the universe is that it doesn't want to be balanced. In fact, it requires regular pruning. In the year 2327 the Infinity War is a distant memory and Ariadne Thornton has some questions for the dark spectre that has haunted the universe for the past three hundred years. [post Infinity War, not Endgame compliant] 5. Not A Place But A People For a time, dreams of peace and safety can sustain a people lost in the wilderness. But soon the reality of the situation sinks in – a ship not provisioned for the number of people on board, a culture on the verge of extinction and a shadow spreading further with every passing day. [post Thor: Ragnarok, not Infinity War compliant]
