SKULDUGGERY'S AND VALKYRIE'S DAY OFF
Skulduggery and Valkyrie were granted a day off from the sanctuary as their walking to the Bentley Valkyrie asks, "We have the whole day off, now what?"
Skulduggery grimly shrugged and got in. Valkyrie had a great idea and said, "Ooh, lets see a scary movie." trying to find her buckle.
"Our life is always a scary movie."
"So, now what? Fishing? I haven't gone since Gordon died."
"Why not? Hey, did I ever tell you the story about me and that shark?"
"When Geoffrey got cursed?"
"Yeah." Skulduggery furrowed his eyebrow from his Façade, "I still think he owes me a favor" he muttered.
Valkyrie laughed a little. "Know and good spots?"
"Well, what do you like? River or lake?"
"Um, uh. River. Got any 'hip weighters'"
"I do, but I was planning on fly fishing."
"OK, sounds awesome, which river?"
Skulduggery looked to the left and did a tight turn making Valkyrie hit her head, hard.
"Ouch… why?"
"Oh, sorry. I don't know the name of the river but it's pretty good."
"OK, how far?"
"Uh, we're here… I think"
"What do you mean?"
"Look" he said pointing outside.
"Ooh, sorry Skul" She said looking at the parking lot that filled the whole river.
"Oh, my god… Now what?"
"I don't know, the beach?"
"I don't tan."
"But I do"
Skulduggery sighed making his shoulders droop. "No, I don't think so. I'm the one with the car."
"Fine, I drive."
"What? I don't think so. Remember Marr?"
"Really? Skulduggery, really? That was a year ago."
"I know, but you heard the mechanic, one more dent and were screwed"
Sighing, Valkyrie had a brilliant idea. "Why don't we go to comic-con?"
"Why? That place is for nerds"
"Fine, what are you thinking of doing?"
"The art museum?"
"Who are you and what have you done with my partner?"
"What? I like art. Don't blame me."
"But that's not fun… Oh, my god! I know where to go!"
"where?"
"Gordon's house."
"Why?"
"Spelunking"
"What is that?"
"Cave exploring"
"Oh, hell no. Remember the creatures and that ghost?"
"Oh, yeah" Valkyrie gasped, "look!"
"Wha-oh" He hit the breaks hard to find a kid hanging in a tree over a park creek. "You get him."
"Fine" she unclipped her seatbelt and ran over to the kid.
"You OK kid?"
"Help me!" he screamed.
"OK, hold on I'll be there in a second."
"Easy for you to say" the kid muttered
While Valkyrie was trying to save the kid Skulduggery played with the car stereo. FM, or AM he couldn't decide. He found FM was better, the song was Katy Perry E.T. He didn't feel like changing it "Kiss me, ki ki kiss me. Infect me with your love and fill me with your poison." After that stanza Skulduggery changed it to Pink Floyd, Brick in the Wall.
Valkyrie was moments from falling into the creek. She said, "OK, almost there… OK, now. Jump!" The kid didn't complain, he fell into her arms and he walked to land but Valkyrie didn't follow. She fell into the water, it was freezing.
"Skulduggery!". He didn't here her. Instead she could see him singing to a song. She almost slipped and fell down stream.
"Kid! Get the guy in the black car!" he nodded and ran up towards Skulduggery's car. He knocked at the window and Skulduggery rolled down the window.
"Can I help you?"
"That girl that helped me fell into the creek, I think she needs help."
Skulduggery ran out to the creek. He found Valkyrie barely clinging to a fallen branch. He carefully runs towards her. Skulduggery looks both ways and makes Valkyrie levitate out of the water and onto land. He lends out his hand and Valkyrie takes it.
"What were you doing?"
"Um, singing to Pink Floyd." The water lifting off of Valkyrie as she made fire flicker in her hand. The kid behind them said, "Are you two magicians?"
Valkyrie, not knowing what to say nudges Skulduggery, "Uh, y-yes we are"
"Can I see that trick you did? The one where you made her float?"
In a quick second his hand splays making the kid float.
He laughs playfully, "That is so cool, can I get down now?"
Skulduggery puts the kid down and he runs off.
"Well, that was something."
"Indeed it was, now what?"
"Lets watch Dracula, at Gordon's house."
"Sounds good to me"
They drove to Gordon's house. Valkyrie started the movie as Skulduggery made some popcorn.
"Popcorn?"
"Don't you like it?"
"I do, but no butter"
"whoops"
"huh, fine"
The movie started and they sat down. Valkyrie got to the part where Dracula had no reflection, she couldn't get through the scene without hearing a snoring. She nudged Skulduggery hard.
"Are you sleeping?"
"N-no not at all."
"Can you even sleep? Oh, wait you 'meditate"
"Exactly, I was doing a pretty good job at it too."
"Sorry, but," His head fell again, "Oh, hell… Wake up!"
"Hmm?"
"You fell asleep. Again!"
"Did I? Sorry."
"Would you want a pillow while you at it?"
"That would be great"
"Oh, my god. Fine, take it!" he took the pillow and folded it as he laid down a but more.
"Happy?"
"Oh, much so. Thank you."
"Man, today has been weird. Not the kind of weird we go against. The weird that we haven't done this yet."
"You no the old saying" he said lazily.
"Yep. Stranger thinks have happened…" She glanced at Skulduggery who was sleeping but she couldn't tell through those empty eye sockets. She creeps over him and Gently taps his collar bone making his façade flow on. She then grabs a Sharpie. Valkyrie was an inch away from his face until he whips out his wrist around hers and says, "… And do with alarming regularity"
I haven't watched Ferris Beuller in a long time, but I did make this somewhat based on that. I didn't have any ideas for my Ghost Rider fanfic so I couldn't do it, sorry! I think I'll do 2 stories a day and switch. Like today 1943 case and short stories. Than tomorrow will be 1943 case and rider, bye!
