-1 Chapter six
After half an hour of walking aimlessly around dark allies and foreboding streets, Susan finally admitted to herself that she was well and truly lost. "Lost Susan?" said a voice behind her. She spun round and saw Albert sitting on a throw out box.
"Albert, what are you doing here?" Susan asked. "Hmm good question. What would deaths servant be doing in a back alley like this? Talking to his granddaughter. Who happens to be getting cosy with a certain resurrected assassin. You know the one, the guy with a glass eye, curly blonde hair, giggly school boy attitude. Seen him?"
"Assassin" Susan grunted. "Wha?" Albert asked "Assassin, with a capital A" "Euhhhh, getting a bit defensive of your boyfriend I see. How romantic. Capital A what nonsense" Albert yawned.
"Well I thought you were supposed to die when you came back if I am not gravely mistaken" she snapped "So let me get this strait, the Hogswatch Incident (something worthy of capital letters) isn't good enough for you? I wouldn't mind but you're getting chummy with someone who came back to life via, and I quote " After he had been killed his soul was sent to the Guild if Assassins castle to haunt it. Granted, it had taken him a good twenty four hours and a lot of energy to get out the building but after that all he had to do was break into the unseen university and rob a single strand of blue magic. Then of course there was the matter of finding his body which wasn't that difficult as Death had merely dumped it in a near by trash can. Then all he had to do was connect the two using the magical rope. After a couple of hours of getting his limbs to work he was as good as new." are you bloody kidding me?"
"Point taken" Susan said tersely. "So why are you here?" Albert smiled. Susan didn't like it one bit "What my charming character and excellent sense of humour not good enough for you?" Albert said pretending to be hurt "No, Albert can't just pop round for a visit he must be on business" Susan interrupted "Well, you would die" Albert grinned "Touché. To be honest I'm just the welcome wagon. You see Death'll be around in the mourning to collect mister Teatime (Resurrections a bastard when it comes to paperwork, that's why he's not here now) So he sent me to give you the heads up. Anyway I best be off. Things to do, people to meet yadda yadda yadda.
Susan stood there stunned. How should she feel right now? Glad or disappointed? Or sad said a voice at the back of her head. "No" she thought out loud. "I should be glad to be free of that annoying, murderous idiot once and for all" Then why aren't you? said the voice. Susan struggled to comprehend her feelings. She had never paid much attention to men and they hadn't exactly been lining up to woo her either. But Teatime he was… different?
TEATIMES POV
Teatime had watched Susan for quite some time now. He had watched the whole thing from a nearby rooftop "Well I'd best prepare for Deaths arrival. After all, he comes for every one."
