Okay! Next chapter, well this is a bit late and I AM very sorry! So to make it up to you I give you this awesome chapter (well at least I hope it's awesome that's for you to decide!) CONTAINS SOME LANGUAGE!
Happy reading!
Valkyrie woke up to a room that wouldn't stop spinning, when she propped herself onto her elbows the room impossibly began to move even more. She groaned and began to wonder what the hell was going on, it all rushed back to her like a tidal wave, even though she would have preferred a more gentle approach. She looked around the cell like room, only a few metres in diameter, the only source of light was a dim light bulb on the other side of a door, Valkyrie reluctantly got up and tried the door. Locked, a pretty daft thing for her to try in the first place. But when she kicked the door as a last try, a slight sheen was visible through the dark, they were up against an adept.
Valkyrie turned around and slumped against a wall and looked up to see a skeleton, she was shocked at first but calmed down to see it was skulduggery.
"Hey, skul," there was no response so she edged closer, "Skulduggery?" a memory sprung back into her head and she sighed, "Skulduggery if you're really using that 'joke' you tried in that other world I will burn your hat" there was still no movement and Valkyrie was starting to get concerned, "Skul?" she crept closer and rested her hand on his shoulder, "please stop it" she shook the lifeless being, "wake up" her claustrophobia began to kick in, what if she was trapped in this cell with nothing but a skeleton to keep her company? The room seemed to be getting smaller and smaller as her fear rose, she took a few steps back and looked back at the skeleton, "SKULDUGGERY, WAKE UP!"
"ROAR!" Valkyrie leapt to the other side of the room petrified staring at the skeleton rolling on the floor laughing, something in Valkyrie clicked,
"You utter twat! Could you not see that I was freaking out, I was scared that I had really lost you!" Valkyrie screeched as Skulduggery stood up brushing himself down still lightly giggling,
"I'm sorry" he said with a smile in his voice and went in for a hug but she pushed him away, when he looked down at her a single tear was visible through the darkness, he got down on one knee and placed his hands on her shoulders, "I am sorry" this time was more sincere,
"Well you bloody well should be," she was starting to sob now "I've lost you once and I can't think of losing you again, you know you're the reason for half my damn nightmares, now act you fucking age and stop scaring teenage girls."
Skulduggery was speechless not only does Valkyrie hardly ever cry in front of him but she's never said any of this to him, Valkyrie was on her knees crying so Skulduggery held her face in his hands and embraced her there for what seemed like forever, then pulled her into a tight hug, this time Valkyrie didn't fight back instead she threw her arms around him and cried into his shoulder
"You really mean it?" he asked,
"Every word you boney twit" they laughed and kneeled locked in position,
"You mean the wold to me Val, pleased don't take it to heart and leave me" He pleaded, Valkyrie broke away but her eyes still locked onto his sockets and arms around his neck,
"You're such a stupid skeleton Skulduggery, I couldn't leave you if I tried. You mean too much to me as well" her hand raised to his head and the other hand activated his façade and his hand to her waist and within millimetres of each other's lips a woman in a long coat and hat entered,
"Aww, how touching."
Valkyrie thought she looked familiar, because it was the same woman from the airport. The coat dropped to the floor revealing the woman's fine figure and strong arms,
"Oh, God please don't be…" was all Valkyrie could whisper before the hat came off presenting none other than Tanith Low herself.
"Miss me?"
