Skulduggery Pleasant On The Run
Chapter 6
The Safe House was in ruins. Bodies were scatted all over the blood soaked floor. The Roof was broken and mortals stared in horror at the scene. Geoffrey Scrutinous was going to be busy today. " But… I saw this helicopter and these things with masks were attackin…" An old and frail woman in her eighties said.
" No hahah you didn't see that. You are going to go home have a nice, warm sleep and forget anything tuat happened today." Geoffrey said.
Geoffrey was smiling and the Woman left. God what the hell has Stalker done?
Stalker and Gunman were hurt, hurt bad. Skulduggery told them to meet them at the New York Sanctuary. " Ok everyone here good I am Anthony Chaos the Grand Mage of the Rebel's Sanctuary here in New York." Chaos said.
" So what are we doing here?" Fletcher said licking a lollipop and straightening his hair.
" We have decided that we were go on a full assault on the Irish Sanctuary." Skulduggery Said.
No one spoke, until Tanith ended the silence. " ARE YOU INSANE! SKULDUGGERY THAT IS SUICIDE ARE YOU KNOW IT." Tanith said angrily.
" No it's actually not, they evacuated the Sanctuary when they went to ambush me and Stalker. Dancing Gunman Said.
" And we also have enough people. We have 100 Loyal Australian Mages, 85 American Mages, 25 Irish Mages, 10 New Zealand mages, Department X and Everyone here. Which is 300 people. Plus The rest of the dead men which are half way across the world getting more support should we need it."
" Well I think we are ready, any questions? No they let's get ready."
Everyone walked away from the meeting room to get prepared. Only Skulduggery and Valkyrie remained in the room. " So who would have thought we would be in another war." Valkyrie said.
" You don't have to do this if you don't want to." Skulduggery said quietly.
" Skul I am a adult now you think I can't handle myself?" Valkyrie said.
" No.. it's just, if we get captured they are going to kill us. We might die."
Valkyrie kissed his Skelton face. " When have we ever failed?"
" Well there was this time on Saint Patricks' day… "
" I told you to shut up about that."
