So guys, fellow readers, amazing people, forgive me for I have royally messed something up.
In the previous chapter, I said Winter had blue and white hair. She has only one white streak. She also says 'I like chocolate,' instead of, 'I love chocolate.'
Chocolate Minion aka Winter Frost, I stand before you, begging for your forgiveness.
'Are you… *gasp* Sky *wheeze*?'
'Yes.' Sky replied, warily.
'You *deep breath* have a visitor. He seems angry.'
'He always is.' Sky sighed.
'SKY!' A tall, sandy blonde haired male boomed.
'Hello Jack. How are you these days?'
'I don't care about 'how I've been these days'! Where's Winter?' Jack demanded angrily, looking over her shoulder trying to spot her.
'I inform you that your sister is in perfect health, and I haven't dragged her into anything. Yet.' I quipped.
'Good. Where is she? I want to see her.'
'Hello spawn of Satan.' Winter said playfully and Jack looked instantly relieved and all the gruffness left his voice.
'Winter. I thought you were dead. You haven't bugged me to pick you up in ages, then I realized that you would probably be with her or off on a snowy mountain so I decided to come here first.'
'Oi, don't blame me.' Jack turned, his brown jeans scratching against his nave blue hoodie and a death glare set in stone on his face. 'Alright, calm ya horses.'
'You drag her into all manner of dangerous situations and now you're saying 'don't blame me'.'
'I'm not saying she doesn't enjoy it!' Sky said and Winter sighed.
Had she really just said that?
'I don't care…' Jack was cut off as sirens warned them of imposing threat.
'EVERYONE OUT!' Skulduggery yelled.
Sky pushed past worried sorcerers trying to find her friends. She found Skulduggery first, then later on Jack, and continued her search for Winter.
'Winter?! Winter?!' She yelled, trying to spot the very noticeable one white streak.
'Sky!' Skulduggery whispered harshly, 'I've spotted Sanguine. And I think Winter's with him.'
'Oh god. Where's Jack? We've got to go after her.'
'What happened to 'he's a psychopath'? Or, you know 'he'll probably slit your throat.'
'He has Winter, which mean he probably wants to trade. He won't kill her because he knows I'll hunt him down. And Jack will slit his throat.'
'Fine. Get Jack and go after him. Don't die this time, alright.'
'No promises.' Sky laughed and turned away.
'Now li'l darling, if you stop struggling I won't have to slit your throat. And I really don't want to do that, because if I do your li'l friend will come and I'll have to kill her.'
'Ugh,' Winter rolled her eyes, 'if you hadn't bonded my powers and C wasn't evil I would freeze yo ass.'
'Who is C, darling?'
'No one.' Winter answered sweetly.
'Anyway, I don't like hurting ladies. So, simply stop struggling.'
'Okay dickhead. Why in the wide world of chocolate would you kidnap me?'
'Because he's an asshole.' Jack said, appearing out of nowhere.
'And I don't like assholes.' Sky sneered, stepping out of the shadows.
'Well isn't this fun,' Sanguine's blade flashed as he thrust it against Winter's neck, 'now. Take one more step and she dies.'
'Sanguine. Don't.' Sky warned.
'I really don't want to kill her, but if you don't stand down I'll slit her throat.'
'What do you want with her?' Jack asked.
'Nothing. It's what I want with you.'
*Cough* 'Creepy.' Sky muttered.
'Wanna tell us what you're planning on doing?' Winter asked hopefully.
'Really, I could tell you because you're about to die.'
'Hold up. I thought you didn't want to kill me.' Winter screeched.
'Sorry, but I lied.' Sanguine made to slit her throat and suddenly shadows burst through his shoulder. He groaned and Jack looked at Sky and her outstretched hand, the shadows coiling around it.
'I thought you had the funny energy stuff?' Winter asked as Sanguine fell to the ground, groaning.
'I dabble.' Sky replied before gesturing to Sanguine. 'We should take him back to the Sanctuary.'
'Or what's left of it.'
