THE SANCTUARY DANCE PART 4

GEPOV

Valkyrie put away the cleaning supplies and Vendetta and Skulduggery left. Valkyrie turned to find they both left, "Perfect." she muttered. Tanith leaned against the door frame and knocked.

"Hey Val."

"Oh, hey Tanith. Have you seen Skulduggery or Vendetta anywhere?" Valkyrie asked, pretty annoyed.

"Uh. No, I haven't. Sorry, why?"

"Nothing. They somewhat ditched me. What about patrol?"

"I think the Cleavers are taking over that. Can we go? I have a dress to work." Valkyrie laughed and walked to the door frame, "Yes, we can go. I just need to run home quickly and get my dress."

"Ooh, I'll take you." Tanith speed-walked faster to her bike and hopped on. Valkyrie almost didn't have enough time strap on her helmet when the bike revved. The ride took about 20 minutes less than the Coupe. She quickly grabbed her dress and accessories. Valkyrie was about to go with Tanith than stopped.

"You OK?" Tanith asked.

"Yeah, it's just that Skulduggery was going to pick me up from my house, so…"

"I get it. OK, see you at the dance Val." Tanith waved back and rove off the way they came. Gordon walked up behind her, trying to scare her.

"Yes?" Valkyrie asked.

"Damn. So, anything happen today?"

"You know Oracle Divulgence right?"

"Yes. Lets go to the study." Valkyrie followed Gordon inside and he grabbed a book.

"This one has practically everything I know about her."

"Weaknesses?" Valkyrie hoped.

"Only one I can think of is her true name, but that's it."

"Doesn't she know what it is?"

"Yes, but she can't seal it. I don't think she's strong enough even for walking a mile. Mentally and magically, she if powerful, but anything physical can break her easily."

"Oh, K… but since she's weak. How did she escape?"

"I think it's a new trick she learned. I believe she found a way to use the true name and somewhat 'brain washed' a person indirectly for total control when ever she needs it."

"Oh god. So are people with sealed names, are they safe?"

"Well, Nye when it engraved those symbols, they were somewhat like a binding spell. And even being bound won't stop her. So, no. I wouldn't think so."

"Skulduggery, what about him?"

"I don't know." Gordon sadly admitted. Valkyrie took the book and stepped out of the study, "Thanks, I need to get ready now."

"OK."

Valkyrie put on the dress with little to no problems. Everything still fitted perfectly. It took her about an hour to get her hair right. Pleased with how she looks, Valkyrie called Skulduggery.

"Yes?" He asked.

"Hey, I'm ready. Lets go."

"Alright. I shall be there in forty minutes or so."

"OK, bye." She hung up on Skulduggery.
