“What do you think of this bit of writing?” Jacob pushes his laptop in front of Allan; he has to put on his grandpa glasses to read it. “Are there still any Beers left, and does anyone want one?” Andy yells halfway into the kitchen. Everyone lifts their hand. Cas lights his cigarette and spins … Continue reading Her Name Is Selina
Talk Dirty
The light streaming in through the window dances over my face and wakes me. Throwing my pillow at it does little to no effect, other than now I’m lying on a cold spot in my sheets. My body still aches when I reluctantly get up, my joints pop and my back locks, I feel older … Continue reading Talk Dirty
I Almost Forgot
Don’t open your eyes, don’t move, keep breathing like this. What do you smell? Incense. What can you hear? Footsteps on hard wood. What do you feel? Rope around my hands and feet, bench beneath me. You’re in the church, keep yourself distracted long enough to assess the situation. “Solace, stop pretending you are still … Continue reading I Almost Forgot
Tweedle-dee and Tweedle-dum
After tossing the dagger back to teller I’m left alone with two of the thief’s henchmen, I will call them tweedle-dee and tweedle-dum. Dee points his gun at me while Dum digs in his oversized backpack; I fire off one of my arrows sending tombstone shrapnel in all directions. The concussion flattens the tweedle twins, … Continue reading Tweedle-dee and Tweedle-dum
The Necropolis
Solace was right, the cemetery gates are big. Good thing Allan put a little knob to boost the power, whirling it to the max should do. “God damn that's Spicy.” I'm glad the blast drowns me out, I haven't said that since I was a teen. The Thief's little men come out of every which … Continue reading The Necropolis
Into the Grave
I can’t see Solace anymore; no matter I have enough to occupy my time. The first two of the thief’s mercenaries that I come across fall like pigs when I stick them with my blades, they even squeal with pain. Slithering around the larger headstones I can conceal myself long enough to strike another three … Continue reading Into the Grave
Hanging From The Cross
The entrance to the cemetery is in sight, I’m coming for you Byron. Yes I know who you are, I remember you’re youthful and hope filled face. I remember how you felt when I wouldn’t let you follow me. The chains on the Gate are no match for Cas’ sonic boom, there is no need … Continue reading Hanging From The Cross
A bit of news
Hello folks. The terrible sight of her parents was too much for us, Cas went near catatonic, Teller broke down and Jacob destroyed half the house trying to find the package. When he did the tears wouldn’t let him open it, he was too afraid of what he would find. I stayed in the living … Continue reading A bit of news
A bit of news
A phone call I received hours after we interrogated one of the thief’s men. “Hello Solace, it’s been a long time hasn’t it?” the voice is scrambled but I know who it is. “Where is she?” “Didn’t Marcus tell you,” his wheezed laugh boils my insides. “I’m sure you used your powers of persuasion to … Continue reading A bit of news
Pub Fight
The heavy door to the pub is pushed open by Solace, giving Teller the chance to run in unimpeded. Everyone is gathered around a fight taking place between Jacob and four burly men; no one sees her launch herself into the air. With her dagger ready she glides inches from the ceiling and into the … Continue reading Pub Fight
