The Sensitive Complex
Set 20 years before the events of the first Skulduggery pleasant took place.
Chapter 1
All Punch McLloyd can think about whilst he's being chased down an alleyway is "What the bloody hell do people want with me, I'm nobody a nothing."
He rounds a corner and then trips over a fallen drunk who wakes up and starts shouting obscenities at him.
"Sorry mate" is all he can think of as he rounds another corner only to bump into a bulkily built man. Who proceeds to grunt then open his eyes wide and staring at Punch. A tightening feeling closes round his throat just as he is about to back away. He suddenly faints and falls to the ground. The large man looks away a second so as to not kill him, he then picks him up and tosses him over his shoulder.
Punch jerks awake to find a familiar face starring down at him. There's a needle in Jaron Gallows hand as he makes his way back over to a chair in the corner of what appears to be a cell in a dungeon of some sort.
Jaron smiles at him, a menacing smile. "Hello there nice to see you've come round. We're gonna utilise your abilities for a little job that needs to be done. You should hopefully live, probably… Maybe."
He gets up from the chair extinguishing a flame next to the cell door as he goes.
The feeble sensitive curls into a ball and starts to cry. "Oh God, oh God" he sobs as he rocks back and forth.
