Welcome back, everyone. Enjoy and review.
12:44 PM
The arrival of the Death Bat was once again without warning. Flying above Bifrost Gardens, the mysterious human-sized bat looked down upon Basil and Venus, mostly the latter.
To just see a black-furred, monkey faced, clawed footed demon with a twelve foot wingspan flying across the sky in the middle of the day was not something anyone, even to someone whose school mascot was the Tazelwurm, would consider normal. The fact that the five-foot tall winged humanoid had eerie feminine features made things even worse when it decided to land. And land the Death Bat did.
When Basil saw it land, he wished he had unpackaged the knife his Aunt Eurydice had gotten him for Christmas. It was just sitting in his nightstand. It must be stated that Eurydice was not a blood relative but given that she had gotten Basil the knife to defend himself, something his aunts who were blood relatives never thought of, her decision suddenly spoke volumes of her concerns for Basil's safety.
The Death Bat stared at them. First it stared at Venus then it stared at Basil and then it just left.
Realizing what was coming, Venus collapsed into Basil's arms sobbing. Basil knew what was coming too. It would be a long night and the sun would never truly rise until the Death Bat was dead.
