Early start

Valkyrie woke early to Alice's sobs down the hall. She sighed and shuffled to the room.

"You know," Alice said, "I never cried so hard before." she looked at her sister, who sat at the corner, "Have you?"

She smiled and slid closer to her, "Yes."

Alice wiped her stained cheeks and squinted at her sister, "You? My sister Valkyrie Cain has shed a tear after saving the world countless times?" she teased, failing with a smile.

"What? No, more like nineteen."

Alice giggled, "Seriously though."

"Alright." she bit her lip, thinking, "When I was fourteen Skulduggery and I were up against other worldly Gods-"

"The Faceless Ones?"

"The very same." Her eyes finally adjusted to the dim light, the moon's rays catching Alice's face. "So we were up against them, all of us really. Us and 3 Gods."

"Did you kill all of them?" she eagerly asked.

"I don't recall, actually." she frowned, "Can we get back?"

"Yeah."

"OK, while Fletch was closing the portal Skulduggery got caught up in the pull of it."

"And?" she urged.

"I lost him for eleven months. Ghastly had to hold me back, or I would've get caught there with him." she half-laughed.

"Would that be a good thing?" Alice dumbly asked.

"If that had happened, than I don't know what could've happened."

"Oh." Alice hugged herself, "What time is it?"

"Six-fifteen, I thought it was way earlier, time to get ready." Alice sighed and got downstairs, making toast for breakfast. Valkyrie got changed and joined her sister in the kitchen, drinking some coffee. "Skul's gonna' be here soon, are you ready?"

She nodded quickly, "Yeah." a knock came from the door, "How soon exactly?"

Valkyrie silently chuckled and opened the door to Skulduggery. "So? Is everything sorted out? We don't need to be in work till later."

"OK, uh, no we haven't. I guess we'll pack up Alice's-" Alice huffed a hint, "Emera's, we'll pack Emera's stuff and she'll, I guess move in."

"That's what I hope." Alice agreed and waltzed out the door.

"I didn't know we had a let start today, Skul." Valkyrie whispered to him in the doorway.

"I made some arrangements."

"Ah."

I didn't bother anymore with it, and for that I'm sorry (exams are like thongs, when you want it the least, it's always riding up your ass). Do you guys like Hellboy? Greatest comic ever! Do you no anyone who writes fanfics about them or does deviations? I LOVE ABE! I call him! And no, I will not write a fanfic about it, for my morbid hands are tied.
