Okay so this is something new: it's the desperate, out-of-this-world Valkyrie Cain. I felt horrible writing this, but don't worry. The next chapter should be different.
"What has he done to me?" Valkyrie Cain said aloud, reaching for the memories with Skulduggery. She dully tapped at the cell wall. "What did he do to me?"
Love's Insanity
It's harder in life when you feel this way
Having to protect the things you can't say
Love is pain by itself and we endure such things on the daily basis
But no not me, no I'm not obsessive
I do not mess with madness and Love's insanity
Its the only way to be the true me
Because upon the tears for the fallen love
Here comes the message of the broken dove
We sit in sadness and cry the bloody tears
Because he was the one I loved for so many years
Can you mess with fate?
Loving oh-so-deeply the things you hate
Or is it only me?
I believe I shall choose my fate, because there is no destiny
Her mind always wandered to him far too often. No matter what happened, she would never let herself forget him. Her heart dull, she whispered a pledge to the cold, empty cell, hoping that somewhere he might hear it. "I will never forget you. No one will. I promise."
If it falls
If she screams
What if I die in my dreams?
If it fails
If he screams
What if we die in our dreams?
If she falls
If he screams
What if it was only just in my dreams?
If he fails
If she screams
What if I was what he wanted me to be?
Valkyrie sang the song in her head, having nothing better to do in jail. It wasn't a normal jail, naturally. Nope, it was a Sanctuary jail. She had been in one before, so it was nothing new to her.
The cell door creaked opened and Detective Crux stood there with a smug little smirk on his face.
"Its time," he said, in what he probably thought was an impressive voice. Valkyrie smiled to herself. "Finally," she whispered.
She was walked to another room, in the middle of which a black chair sat. She was ushered into it and gave her request, her last request.
"Understand that you have asked for this under the circumstances of pleading guilty to the murders." Valkyrie nodded.
"I am not innocent."
"Fine. Valkyrie Cain, taken name. Stephanie Edgely, given name."
"You were charged with 5 different accounts of murder: Tanith Low, Ghastly Bespoke, both of your parents, and Fletcher Renn."
"This was purely out of insanity, we now understand, but we cannot postpone this any longer, Miss Cain. The Elders have ruled you . . . Death. Your last wish will be fulfilled, as requested." He gestured towards something covered in cloth.
The cloth was lifted and underneath there was a picture of every person she had killed. She smiled and tears ran down her face.
"You swear to keep your word?"
He nodded.
"Yes, Miss Cain. We have a writer working on it already. Your book will be printed and distributed in the magic world."
"On to other business."
Valkyrie Cain looked around the room one last time, seeing every face that had fought to get her killed.
"We will now commence with the execution."
A Necromancer stepped out of the shadows. Her death would start with him, she realized dully. His personal cloud of darkness surrounded her. Tears ran down her cheeks, and emotion overwhelmed her. The emptiness slowly choked her.
'Time to die.' She registered coolly. Blood replaced her tears,
"Remember me, and remember them! Remember him!" she shouted. Her last words.
The purple haired girl looked at the cover of a bestselling new book. It was called Skulduggery Pleasant and His Apprentice. It was about a magical detective who had a young assistant; she fell in love with him. He disappeared, and she went crazy. Killed every loved one she had.
It sounded good enough, and if it had sold over one billion books all over the world it should be good. She looked at the cover to a relatively real looking photo of a girl, a skeleton in a suit, a scarred man, a blonde woman, and a middle-aged couple.
'I'll read it after all,' she decided.
