AN: I'm SOOOO sorry for not updating for so long. I have way too many excuses. I'm not even going to try to explain. Nobody will probably read this story anyway. A few reasons are: a lot of school projects, started watching Doctor Who, Sherlock, Supernatural, and a lot of anime, lost laptop, and forgot password again. I'm very sorry, but hopefully I'll be updating more. I still plan to do all of Iris Dexterous's (spelling?) requests, but this one isn't any of them. Unless it is and I just didn't see it. Anyway here it is, please don't kill me with fire. This one's more serious if that's okay.
China, Skulduggery, Dexter.
I know she's our friend, but we have to kill her.
We're not killing her.
Skulduggery, listen to reason. Valkyrie's gone. She's never coming back.
All I need to do is get close enough to talk to her.
You've tried that already and all you accomplished was getting twenty Cleavers killed.
They shouldn't have come with me.
We have to send people with you, because if we don't you'll get yourself killed.
Then its your fault they're dead.
Skulduggery…
We're not killing her and that's it.
Don't make me arrest you again…
Arrest me! I don't care I'll just get out again
Think about all the people she's killed.
The reflection, Fletcher, her parents, gracious, and countless mortals.
And you want to kill an innocent girl!
She's not there anymore. Its just Darquesse.
Valkyrie's another person we've lost due to Darquesse.
I can bring her back.
Valkyrie wouldn't want this! She's want you to kill her and stop this pointless bloodshed.
DON'T TELL ME WHAT SHE WOULD WANT! YOU DIDN'T KNOW HER LIKE I DID.
Skulduggery, please…
(Skipping forward a few days)
Skulduggery Pleasant has died
I tried to warn him! But he ran in there anyway like a idiot!
Dexter
I can't believe he let himself get killed! The famous skeleton detective!
Now's not the time
If he would've listened to me, just this once.
I know.
AN: I've been in a depressed Skulduggery Pleasant mood recently and I really couldn't think of anything fun, but the next ones will be better. I promise. Again very sorry! But thanks if you still read this.
