A/N: So for all the Ganith shippers, I am so sorry to say that we have so little fan fiction. I have not Finished the books...I got to Death Bringer but I am no longer able to get my hands on any of the other ones. But this is my take on Ganith and how it should have ended. There will be slight OC mention (Tanith's non existence sister & sister's boyfriend are a few of my OC'S) Any who, ENJOY! please leave comments as to how you enjoyed it!
I sat quietly at my desk doing paper work. I hated paper work and I hated my job. I would give anything to go back to being a tailor but I barely have time for that now. Skulduggery had just finished yet another case meaning I had paper work to do. So there I was. In my descent sized office surrounded by paperwork and gray walls, only a few pictures on my desk. I glanced up at one of the pictures on my desk. Most had been taken since I had gotten my job as Elder but I had a few from before. One stood out. It was a picture that was taken while I had been stone. Val had forced Skulduggery to take it. It was a picture of Valkyrie and Tanith standing back to back knees slightly raised and hands in finger guns. The two girls wore mid-thigh level dresses (Val's was white while, Tanith's was black). The two girls had their hair down, and, even though they looked stunning, Val didn't hold a candle to Tanith in my eyes. Tanith Low. A beautiful, powerful woman, who had been missing for 8 years now. I could still remember the last time I saw her. How she had gently pressed her lips to mine despite my scares. God she was beautiful. Suddenly I heard a knock at my door interrupting my thoughts. Erskin Ravel stood in front of my and he smiled gently.
"Thinking about her again?" He asked gently. I nodded.
"Yeah." I responded softly. "It's been 8 years. Every day hurts worst then the last. I can't imagine life with out her forever." I sighed "I still have some of my people looking for her. Skulduggery and Val keep an eye out, her sister is looking 24/7 with the help of her boyfriend-" Erskin cut me off.
"You got her sister looking?" He sounded surprised. I shrugged.
"It was her idea." I bend over my paperwork.
"Take a week off." He said softly. I was stunned. Was he asking me to give up? I could never give up on her. "I'm not asking you to give up." He spoke quickly. "You just need to relax. Take a week off. That's an order." He stands up to leave.
"I'll never give up on her." I call after him. he chuckles and turns back to me.
"I don't want you to. I just want you to take care of your self. If you don't take care of yourself you wont be able to take care of her when we get her back. And we will get her back. Trust your people." He turned and exited the room leaving me alone with my thoughts.
*Hours later*
Shortly before we closed up for the night I finished the last of the paperwork. I smiled to my self. A week off. Maybe I would find Ruby, Tanith's sister and join the hunt for a week. I would feel better if I was out there helping the search. As I thought I heard the intercom on my desk buzz.
"Yes?" I asked as I pressed the button.
"There is someone here to see you." The secretary said.
"Who?" I asked. There was a sigh from the other end.
"She won't say. She calls her self an old friend." I sighed.
"Fine." I thought for a moment. "Send her in." I sat back at my desk thinking about who it could be. I glanced at my clock. 7:15. I sat and waited for 10 minutes before sighing. Maybe the girl got lost. I would have to find her. I began to pick up to the paperwork and set them in different folders as I worked I heard the door open behind me. "I will be with you in one second. I'm almost done." I heard a sigh behind me. I finished the paperwork and turned.
Before me stood a woman in a cloak, with the hood drawn over her face. The cloak was the deepest black I had ever seen, and made of wool. It reached the ground and I caught sight of scarlet red fabric on the inside when she moved her arm to reach out for the back of the chair between us. Her long blonde hair fell in loose curls over bother her shoulders and reached past her shoulders. With her free hand she reached up to the hood and pulled it from in front of her face. My green eyes met with the most beautiful blue eyes I had ever seen. Fear and worry, doubt and tears filled the eyes. Bruises covered the side of her face and a few on the visible portions of her she was. Standing in front of me was the love of my life. The woman who I hadn't seen in so many years. She smiled weakly. "Ghastly." she said softly, sadly. and then she fell. I rushed to her. Oh god I hope she's okay.
