P.S. Skulduggery's human!
Good to have you back Val
Skulduggery awoke and looked across his living room, his partner Valkyrie Cain was peacefully sleeping on the sofa having been worn out from their last case. Suddenly, his phone rang, he picked it up and saw that it was Ghastly, he answered it.
"Hello, Ghastly."
"Skulduggery, we need you and Val for a new case, can you meet me and the dead men in the sanctuary?"
"Sorry Ghastly, Valkyrie hasn't slept in four days, she's fast asleep, but you can meet us at my house."
"Ummm, yeah sure, I'll be there in ten."
"Bye."
"Bye Skulduggery."
He put the phone down and looked at Valkyrie, he brushed some hair out of her face and sat down waiting for the dead men's arrival
Ten minutes later, the doorbell rang and skulduggery quietly opened it, he put his fingers to his lips to stop them from speaking to loudly, they all looked confused until he pointed at Valkyrie, they smiled at him and sat on the sofas around her. Suddenly, she began muttering louder and crying, the dead men looked at her sadly.
"Her nightmare have gotten worse, she doesn't talk about them anymore but I wish she would speak to me, it would make her feel better." Said Skulduggery sadly, hanging his head.
Ghastly patted his back and looked at his friend but all eyes snapped to Valkyrie as she screamed a pained scream, she arched her back and began crying more, The dead men looked at her in shock as Skulduggery ran over to her, shaking her awake, her eyes snapped open and she hugged Skulduggery, burying her face into his shoulder, she was shaking and sobbing as he hugged her.
"Shh, shh, Valkyrie it was just a dream." Skulduggery said soothingly.
Valkyrie relaxed and pulled away from the hug, she wiped her tears away and noticed the dead men all sitting around her. Before she could register what was happening, they all wrapped her in a bone-crushing hug, she laughed and looked at them, smiling.
"Are you ok Val?" Asked Dex gently, Valkyrie nodded in response, she stood up and her head started hurting, she put her hands to her temples but soon the pain was unimaginable, she screamed and fell to the floor with her body shaking, she arched her back and screamed painfully, Dexter and Saracen held her hand whilst tears ran down Skulduggery's face.
Just the, Valkyrie's body stopped shaking and she stopped screaming, lying limp on her back.
"No." Anton whispered, they all had tears streaming now, Dexter checked her pulse an announced.
"She's gone." He whispered, hanging his head over her body and crying. "I never got to tell her I loved her." He said crying more, Erskine pat his back and got up as the rest did the same, but Dexter stayed with Valkyrie. He kissed her forehead before standing up and walking out of the room with the other dead men. They walked into the kitchen and sat down, Skulduggery and Dexter were crying freely with the rest of the dead men, even Anton – the tough one of the group was shedding tears over someone he thought of as a sister.
Valkyrie's POV
I stood up as Darquesse started talking to me, I was getting a migraine and put my hands to my temples, suddenly it felt as if I had been stabbed, I screamed and fell to the floor, Darquesse talking to me all the while, I was aware of my body stopping as well as my screams, I couldn't breathe anymore. Am I dead? My visions blurring but I can see Dexter, he just kissed my forehead and he's crying over me. Wait, he just said he loved me, no way! He felt the same! Suddenly, my vision went black and Darquesse came into my sight.
"Hello Valkyrie."
"Darquesse?! What am I doing here?"
"Don't worry, you'll be back in your pety life soon enough, but I brought you here to speak to you, I want you to know that if you ever want me to take over, I can."
I laughed, "Why would I EVER want that?!"
Darquesse sighed, "I knew you wouldn't understand child, but soon enough, I'll be able to take control and you won't be able to do anything to stop me."
I laughed again. Darquesse sighed and waved her hand, my vision went black again and suddenly I opened my eyes, I was still on the floor and looking up at the ceiling, I jumped up and saw the dead men weren't around me anymore, I heard sobbing from the kitchen so decided to investigate, I opened the door and stepped inside.
General POV
The dead men were still crying with their heads down when they heard footsteps, their heads snapped up, entering the kitchen was someone they never thought they'd see again. Valkyrie Cain. Their mouths dropped open and their eyes widened.
"Valkyrie!" Skulduggery exclaimed, he ran to her and picked her up, hugging her so tightly she couldn't breathe, they parted and she smiled at her partner, she laughed when she saw his tears and wiped them away smiling at him, he smiled softly back.
"C'mon Skul, you know me better not to die without a fight!" Said Valkyrie laughing slightly, "look I'm okay Skul, Darquesse just needed to speak to me. Don't cry because you'll make me sad to, like you said be brave." She finished hugging him again.
"This isn't right, I'm the one who's meant to take care of you!" Said Skulduggery smiling, Valkyrie giggled.
Suddenly, without warning, Dexter ran to Valkyrie hugging her even tighter than Skulduggery, burying his head into Valkyrie's hair and sobbing into her shoulder, Valkyrie started crying to, seeing how upset Dexter was. She pulled away from the hugs and kissed him on the lips, him responding eagerly, they pulled away and smiled, brushing each others tears away.
"I love you Valkyrie Cain, would you give me the honour of being my girlfriend?"
"I love you too Dexter Vex, and yes I would love to be your girlfriend!"
They grinned at each other and kissed once more. Valkyrie turned back round towards the dead men and was hugged by Saracen, Erskine, Anton and Ghastly.
"Good to have you back sis." They all said, she smiled and pulled away.
