Valkyrie Cain was bored. Actually, that was an understatement. She was incredibly bored. Deliriously bored. She was explaining this to Skulduggery, who seemed to be nodding off himself.
"I know!" Valkyrie declared excitedly after a while.
Skulduggery jolted awake, "What is it?" he yelled, punching thin air.
"Let's go stalking!" Valkyrie declared.
"Hmm?" Skulduggery asked in a worried tone.
"You stalk Tanith, and I'll stalk Ghastly. We'll report back at the end of the day, and whoever got the most information wins!" Valkyrie explained.
"Oh, joy."
