I'm no good a promises. I'M SORRYYYYY!
Skulduggery looked down at his best friend, Eskrine Ravel with a sad eye. Some parts of his face was black and blistered, Whilst others were red glossy. His clothes were slowly being peeled off by the doctors around him and those usually smiling lips were now swollen and closed. It almost brought tears to his eyes, That one of his best friends had been badly hurt just to cause a distraction. It reminded him of times in the war, People sacrfised themselves just to save him. It was horrible thing of them to do, But they did it anyway.
Is eyes moved, Towards one of the doctors hands that were slowly clipping away the fabric of his trousers. Which was black and sticking to his skin. Those white gloves already covered in blood and tiny peices of clipped skin. He was loosing to many people. Far to often. He felt like he was loosing his mind, Feeling it slow and tick over like a car left at a accident. He wanted to lash out and scream, But something was fixing him to where he was standing. He wanted to shake Ravel until he snapped out of his slumber, But something in his mind was telling him he was going to be alright. Telling him the Ravel would stay strong.
He knew Ghastly wanted him to wake up and plaster a cheeky grin on his face and say- "What have i missed?" But right now, That didn't seem possible. It was like the burns on his lips had screwed them shut, Preventing him from saying their names. His eye lids stitched together to prevent them from seeing that glistening glint in his eyes that reasured them that he was fine.
"I'm sorry sir," Said a doctor, "But i'm affraid you can't stay."
"Don't you dare." Skulduggery hissed, Amazed slightly at how menacing and dangerous his voice sounded. "I'm staying right here with my best friend."
"We can not continue the healing process if you are here, Please leave." The man said, Taking hold of his arm and attempting to move him back, But he wasn't having any of it. His gaze locked with the man's and he sent a murderous glare.
The Doctors eyes widdened at the darkness in Skulduggery's glare and stumbled slightly. Now wishing he had believed the rummours about Skulduggery Pleasant. This man was dangerous, Like a lion let into a bunch of sheep. Skulduggery sighed, Knowing that him fighting wouldn't be what Ravel wanted. He looked down at his friend before leaving the room. He didn't look at the doctor's as he left, He just grabbed the door handle and flung the peice of wood open. Then slamming it behind him with a almighty bang.
He felt the emotions that were stiring in him grow strong. Threatening with everything they had to spill. One wrong move and it would all gush out. All the years worth of pain, All the emotions people had caused to thrash in their cages. They had unlocked the doors, And were threatening to crawl out into his mind. To cause devistation and leave him as a insane mess on the floor. He needed to calm down, Go for a walk. A burn up in the Rolls-Royce along the motorway. Maybe drawing, He had heard it was theraputic. Anything he could find that would take him off the subject. Bring him away from the darkness that was invading his mind.
He rounded another corridor and Valkyrie collided with him, Her legs were on full speed in a run and the force took them down to the floor. Her tall, Yet light body crashed with his and their legs tangled. But she managed to support herself by her arms and look at the man she had attacked. "I'm s-sorry Skulduggery i didn't mean to-"
"Get off me."
Her eyes widdened at his tone and her chest felt like a knife had gone through it. "I'm sorry" She managed, She hadn't ment to do anything.
"I'm just in a bad mood at the moment." He snarled, Eventually having to push her off him and let her roll onto the floor. "Just leave me alone." He growled. He didn't want to speek to her. He didn't want to listen to her ramblings. He just wanted to get away from the nightmare that was nicknamed his life.
I'm doing the next chapter right now, So it'll be up soon. :)
