Kay, these are just pointless drabbles that I wrote in Geometry class when I was done with my work and very bored. Thanks, Mr. Henry. Also, thanks to leannapotter cuz she's just so awesome for being my bestest friend in the whole universe. Anyway, Hope you enjoy! And it should be obvious that I am, most unfortunately, NOT Derek Landy.

Valkyrie was lost. No, she was more than lost as she listened to Fletcher and Tanith argue about… Well, about nothing, really. They were just making useless points and countering them. She wondered how long they could go on like that, and moved on. She wished Skul was here. He wouldn't have left her just sitting there. But oh, no, he just HAD to be off gods-know where, doing gods-knew what. Growling quietly about pointless arguments, she left to go to Gordon's study. At least it would be… GORDON!! That was it! She would just go visit Gordon. He was always good for a laugh.

Nodding in satisfaction, she quietly left the room. She did wonder a bit about how long it would take them to notice her absence…oohh… Quickening her pace, she reached the study, opened the door on the bookcase, and saw Gordon sitting there.

" Gordon, is there any way to spy on the people in the living room?" she asked him quickly.

" Yes…" he replied, slightly confused. Valkyrie lost her patience,

" GORDON!! How?!" She demanded of him.

The echo-man stood up and opened the bookcase that was in the room. Valkyrie raised an eyebrow and followed him silently. The next time she looked down, she had a perfect view of the living room, and she could hear everything.

" Does anybody know about this?" Val asked him in a whisper and Gordon just shook his head. They both grinned evilly. They turned back when they heard a window open. Val sighed. Of COURSE Skulduggery wouldn't use the door. Damn suit of bones.

They watched silently as… Well, someone walked into the room. Fletcher looked up and shouted, jumping out of his seat. And that, in turn, made Tanith look up. And she froze.

" S-s -s - Skulduggery?" She stuttered before getting up and promptly fainting. Fletcher, fortunately, caught her before she could hit the table. The man walked over and helped Fletcher get her over to the couch.

" Who the hell are you?!" Fletcher asked him, rather rudely.

Mr. Man then turned to Fletcher, smiled, theatrically bowed, and said, "Skulduggery Pleasant, at your service. And now that you know who I am, which you should have before, Fletcher, you can tell me where Valkyrie is." Mr. Man- Skulduggery?- finished his little speech and Fletcher looked at him. And snorted.

" If you are Skulduggery Pleasant, which I doubt, because he is a skeleton, then you should know what Valkyrie's first outfit made by Ghastly was."

Mr. Man/Skul sighed and rolled his eyes. " Obviously, it was a black outfit with silver clasps and pants, with the tunic shirt sleeveless, with a three quarter length coat, which she wore when we fought vampires when she was 12. She fell into a tree." Mr. Man/ Skul answered, sounding rather exasperated. " Now, where is Valkyrie?"

------Valkyrie was shocked. Nobody, except Tanith and Skul knew she had run into a tree. So this man had to be Skul.. Unbelievable though it was..----

Fletcher looked around, expecting to see Valkyrie sitting somewhere, looking as shocked as he felt.

-----Valkyrie had to stifle a chuckle at his bewildered face.-----

Fletcher looked at Skulduggery and gulped.

" I… I don't.. know…" he stuttered/mumbled quietly. Skulduggery looked beyond livid. In fact, he looked rather murderous. It was kind of scary.

----- Valkyrie decided to take pity on poor Fletcher, before Skul murdered him. So, when they turned around, presumably to look for her, she glanced at Gordon, saw him nod, found a latch, opened the door and slipped through as quietly as she could, closed it silently, and looked at them walking away, arguing loudly at how Fletcher couldn't notice her absence. Smirking, she snuck up behind them, and…

" Hi! You guys looking for me?" she asked, quite unexpectedly and cheerily from right behind them.

The two men jumped, and twirled around. And stared. Skulduggery raised an eyebrow. She smirked.

"What you did to Tanith wasn't nice, you know." She informed him. "As well as what you did to Fletcher, prat though he is." She smirked again, enjoying their speechlessness and taking advantage of it.

Skulduggery just raised his other eyebrow. Then he opened his mouth, as if to speak, and hesitated, closing it again. Fletcher was gaping like a fish. Val laughed. She fell to the ground, tears streaming down her face as she enjoyed their faces. She had really surprised them.

Fletcher was shocked. First she disappears, then reappears and scolds Skulduggery without a hint of shock, and now she was laughing. What the hell???? It was more than his below average intelligence could take.

Tanith woke up. She took in the scene before her. Val on the ground, laughing, Mr. Man who claims to be Skulduggery looking at her with raised eyebrows, and the ever annoying Fletcher looking vaguely pissed off and confused. Finally, Val got up, clutching her sides. She gave Skul a hug and then asked the question that was going through hers, Tanith's, and Fletcher's minds:

" How are you human again?"
