Through the darkness

He swiftly sprints

Elegance gracing his every step

A syringe in his pocket

A scar on his face

He's on a quest tonight

Below, a while away

Another is moving

The earth parts at his will

A razor in his pocket

Sunglasses on his face

He's on a quest tonight

Under the light of a lamppost

Outside a run-down pub

The dark one stops

The blonde rises up

From inside the pub

A coward watches

Mumbles to himself – frightful

He knows both these men

And they don't mean well

He stays in the shadows, all ears

On a nearby rooftop

A monster adjusts his hat

Wonders what his… acquaintances are doing

He smiles, he always smiles

But wonders

And stays in the shadows, all ears

Under the light of that lamppost

The men lean in for a kiss

The coward and monster almost cry out in shock

As the dark one and the blonde unite in bliss

The dark one smiles

And with his teeth

Removes the sunglasses

His hand fumbles

With a line of buttons

He knows what he wants

The blonde runs his fingers

Through dark hair

Pockets the sunglasses

Buttons are scrapped

Shirt falls to the ground

He knows what he wants

Under the light of the lamppost

Two men become topless

The monster and the coward don't understand

The meaning of all this

The coward finds a camera

His hands shaking

His eyes watering

Who will pay most for this?

[i]Click[/i] goes the camera

The sound makes him jump

The monster leans forward

Rests on the tiles

Curious now, and watchful

At the unexpected pair

[i]Crack[/i] says a tile

The sound makes him jump

Under the light of the lamppost

Blonde has dark up against the wall

The monster turns to face a skeleton

The coward isn't seen yet at all

The dark one slides his hand

Down the chest of his partner

Leaning back against the stone wall

Kisses him again

Trousers fall, shoes come off

The moon appears from behind its cloud

The blonde kicks off his shoes

And the trousers too

The evening chill creeps up on him

An owl hoots

Hands snake their way around the dark one's neck and waist

The moon appears from behind its cloud

Under the light of the lamppost

Two lovers unite

The coward drops the camera

Keels over with fright

He lies there, unconscious

Missing out on the fun

Eyes glazed over

The moonlight falls

On the hole in his head

He may as well be dead

The monster can't react

Before a gun hits his skull

The skeleton lunges

The monster falls

Through the moonlight

He may as well be dead

Under the light of the lamppost

Lovers startled as monster lands

Dark shrugs and resumes the embrace

Moans as blonde begins using his hands

The skeleton tries not to snort

Steps a bit back, mumbling "mission abort!"

Blonde turns the dark one around

They intensify the volume of their sounds

The skeleton leaps down from above

Staying out of sight, hurrying into the pub

Dark almost screams in delight

Blonde savours the moment, taking in the night

The skeleton finds the body of an old enemy

Picks up the camera… takes a few more shots of the intimate scene

Blonde and dark slide down the wall

The skeleton sighs at the twisted beauty of it all

He considers taking action

His enemies are defenceless

But… even he can't ruin a moment like this

He stays and watches for a while

Staying low in the window

Snaps a few more perfect moments

Then slips away into the dark

Back where his car is

Thinking, with a grin on his face

[i]Val's going to be delightfully disgusted to see this![/i]
