Chapter 11

As soon as Valkyrie got out the door, she went in search for a weapon to kill Caelan with. God she absolutely HATED him! She found a stick with a ribbon on, a lot like the one Skulduggery gave her as a present. She felt the tears welling up in her eyes, threatening to spill out over her face just thinking about him.was

Once she had the stick, she turned around ready to try a sneak attack on him, even if he was a vampire with extremely good senses. Just as she turned around a pair of cold hands rapped around her face, covering her eyes and mouth, making her drop her stick. Her instinct caught on, and started kicking and punching in everyday possible, as well as clawing at the hands to free her face of the coldness. It was starting to get hard to breathe, the hands were covering her way to air, and no matter how hard she tried, she just couldn't get the hands off her face. She was really struggling now, when she heard a voice, as soft as velvet, say something.

"Shhh, Valkyrie." came the voice, she recognised is easily as Skulduggery's."You dont want to alert the vampire in your house now do we?"

Wait thought Valkyrie SKULDUGGERY? No it can't be. He's dead, well deader than he was before anyway. She instantly relaxed and he took his hands away from her. She looked everywhere, all around her until a voice from above said,"Up here."

She looked up and saw Skulduggery, hanging from a tree branch.

How could this be? She thought to herself, before finally passing out from the shock, and loss of oxygen to her brain.

No need to fear, Skulduggery Pleasant is here thought Skulduggery, as he caught Valkyrie and led her to his Bentley Yes I learned ow to spell it properly thx to all the people who said I had it wrong (says sarcastically). Once he had gotten her in the passenger seat, making her look as normal as possible, he drove her to the pier, where he was hiding in some rock cave or whatever.

After he had set Valkyrie down on the floor, putting his jacket on top of her, he went and sat down on his comfy armchair, that had somehow gotten there… and slept/meditated.

He came back to see Valkyrie 2 hours later, with a cup of water free from salt. He put it down next to her and walked away to the bentley.

20 minutes later, Valkyrie woke up with a sore back and thought of the previous events. Skulduggery she thought that couldn't have been him…. could it? She decided with her brain making fun of her. That's when she noticed her surroundings, and the glass of water next to her and started to dough her decision.
