SKULDUGGERY AND VALKYRIE 18

I miss Tanith, I miss her hair, her eyes and her leather. Why was she taken by a remnant and not me. I miss her more than ever.
"hello, ghastly."
"hi ravel"
"any news on Tanith?"
"no not yet. Tea?"
"sure, what do you have?"
"herbal, blue, green or ice tea?"
"I'll go with ice tea, thank you."
While we waited for the water to boil vendetta came in.
"um elder bespoke?"
I mind the fact people have to call me that, why not just Ghastly.
"yes? What is it?"
"some one is here to see you"
"who is it?"
"she goes by… Tanith Low."
That name gave me some faith.
"Tanith? Really? Well send her in immediately!"
"yes sir, right away"
And then came in Tanith, that hair, those eyes and the leather. It was her, she came back.
"T-Tanith? Is that you?"
"it has been me the whole time even after the remnant attack."
"but i-it hasn't been you"
"you just don't understand how remnants work, do you? For starters, yes I'm not fully Tanith. I'm still her in every way possible, remnants are just an 'add-on'. I just have a new purpose, to bring back Darquess. But I do miss you ghastly, I love you."
"do you love me enough to do some research on you?"
"yes, if that what it takes to win you back."
"right than, vendetta, can you lead her to Nye please? And don't leave Taniths' or Nye's side in the same room. K?"
"yes sir, elder bespoke."
"well, bye ghastly. When this is done do you want to go for tea to catch up?"
"um sure, bye"
"see ya"
Vendetta and Tanith left.
"how can it be? Ghastly, it's a miracle."
"it is. She thinks she'll never get the remnant out. But I think Nye almost is about to have a breakthrough."
"I hope your right"
SKULDUGGERY AND VALKYRIE 19

Tanith and I walked through the corridors.
"so vendetta are you new here?"
"I've been here for about 6 days, I still get lost though"
"heh. It took me about a month to not get lost anymore. What happened to Kenspeckle?"
"well from what I heard from val, he was killed by his possessed assistant, Clarabelle. Apparently she was never 'fully there"
"no she never was. What happened to her?"
"last time I heard she was driving with 2 zombies."
"huh, isn't Nye like that thing that drew symbols on her heart to protect her?"
"Val knows her true name?"
"whoops, sorry only the 3 of us new, and the whole remnant army."
"you're a remnant right?"
"yes, sorta why?"
"do you know her true name?"
"yes, but I would never tell what it is, sorry. Even if some one tries to over throw her, they couldn't, those symbols make her own her name. so no one can stop her."
"oh ok. No I wasn't asking, and sorry if it sounded like it. Can I ask you something?"
"sure what's up?"
"you know Val like a sister right?"
"ya why?"
"well, 2 things. 1) I think she has a crush on Skul and 2) where were you for the last 6 days?"
"ok first, did she tell you? And second, Australia ask Skul. By the way is her back yet?"
"no, not that I know of. Where is he?"
"well last time I saw him was in Australia earlier today, I think he's flying here"
"great when is his plane getting here?"
"not by plane, I don't think that they would let a revolver on any ways, I wonder how he got there?"
"so he's actually like flying?"
"ya he's been doing that since 2 years ago."
"huh weird do you think he can teach me? Oh here we are"
"wow that hallway was long. Any way lets go"
