-and the tentacle flips the man into her gaping maw.

She laughs. "Have you been having any trouble at all?"

No. But they think they can stand up to me. It's fun.

"Have they tried anything interesting? The Third Hokage is said to have all sorts of powers."

"Not yet. Should I hang around in case they do?"

"It's a bit past what we were planning... But this is fun..."

And there's a sudden chill in the air, like the grave breathing upon them, and the world goes black-and-white -

And a masked, skeletal being appears floating before them, scythe raised.

...Oooh.

Ira turns to them, "Are you going to be a challenge?"

"Popcorn?" Ant offers Hisame. (And when did ey even get popcorn?!)

"Popcorn!"

The shinigami, being the local god of death and one of the world's few remaining gods, is indeed a challenge, scythe capable of cutting through even concepts -

It's not quite prepared for Ira.

She toys with it some, lets it think it's going to get somewhere with trying to destroy her.

It, unfortunately, doesn't have a noticeable emotional reaction to this.

Pity.

She abandons her avatars and resumes her true-er form.

Except it feels like she isn't quite fitting in the world this time. Her tentacles start to wind around the shinigami, drawing it inexorably towards her maw.

It attempts to flee, mostly trying to jump across dimensions.

Except there doesn't seem to be a dimension that Ivh'otl'ra isn't in. Except it feels like Ivh'orl'ra is the dimensions. It's hard to separate, hard to work out where she (it?) ends and the dimensions begin.

Everything in its general vicinity starts to cease existing.

Ivh'otl'ra stubbornly refuses to cease existing. Or perhaps fails to notice that things around it are ceasing to exist.

That was kind of its ultimate power!

It intensifies, but - 

It's merely the one who ushers the living to the Pure Land.

It is not, in fact, The Ending Of All.

Ivh'otl'ra isn't sure it's The Ending Of All either, but it is sure it is the end of this shinigami.

It gets the thing into its maw and then-

-then it is done, and Hisame and Ant will bear witness to what appears to be a very content eldritch horror.

Hisame is too delighted for words.

She has no idea what eating death's going to do but it promises to be hilarious.

"If you're done, you could move this tower back to our base?" Ant suggests.

Well yes, Ira can indeed do that thing. And does.

"Let's look through our books now!" Hisame suggests, grinning.

"Oooh! Yes! Let's!"
