Anyway. POTTERMORE. Pottermore is AMAZING. I am loving it, so much! I'm in Gryffindor, because I am cool like that! I strongly believe you should play it, it's more fun for Potterheads, like, but it is awesome!
I don't really know what to blog about, because I have been too busy to write fiction. I was busy writing essays and French paragraphs about baguettes, Bentley's, fedoras and milk. My sister keeps on telling me you are what you eat...I am so glad I don't eat baguettes, because that'd just be awkward!
Well, I could post about how I am truly feeling right now, but I have my writing for that, so expect lots of murder and violence in the next couple of stories I upload! In the meanwhile, I shall leave you with the Valduggery fanfiction I wrote for someone as request (on one of the Facebook pages I admin - Skulduggery Pleasant Short Stories), even though I know a lot of you don't ship Valduggery, like me, I hope you enjoy it! I found this difficult to write, so it's even worse than normal! Please give me feedback? I guess that's it, here you go...
The man ran into Skulduggery
and they were both sent sprawling. Skulduggery landed next to the still body of
his partner, Valkyrie, whereas the man hit a lamppost yet still stood up.
Skulduggery was fast, but the man seemed to be faster as he summoned a tether
of shadows and sent them hurtling towards Skulduggery. Skulduggery jumped out
of the way seconds too late as the shadows hit his foot and he sent a ball of
fire towards the man. The man edged closer to Skulduggery and when he was mere
footsteps away from him, Skulduggery went to punch him but his punch was
blocked and the man went to retaliate but Skulduggery twisted his arm backwards
and his elbow met the man’s nose, blood came gushing from his nose. Skulduggery
grabbed the man and started heading towards the Bentley and shoved him into the
car and spun on his heel, after slamming the door, to get Valkyrie.
As Skulduggery walked
towards Valkyrie, he noticed something was wrong - but he couldn't place his
finger on it. Valkyrie just lay there, still, her blood was mixing with the
rain, he touched his collar bones and his skull was suddenly covered with a
waxy skin and his eyes were blue today, his cheekbones as high as normal and
sharp features. Today he didn't bother using magic to avoid the rain, he let it
hit him and it looked as though he was crying... He walked up to her body and
checked for a pulse, he gently put her arm down and stood next to her, just
staring at her...
"Valkyrie....This is
what I was trying to avoid....." He whispered to himself. “We first
met five years ago, you know? Five years ago to this day and hour.” He spoke to
her body, he didn’t know whether she was alive, and if she was whether she
could hear him, but he had to say this. “You first saw me at Gordon’s funeral,
but I first saw you much longer ago, than that. I saw you as a baby, you were
three months old. Gordon was child-minding you, because your parents were busy.
Gordon called me, he had no clue about looking after children and he knew I
used to have a child. Your uncle Gordon asks of my advice a lot.” Skulduggery
had his façade up and he smiled slightly, as the rain drops rolled down his
waxy skin and soaked his pin striped suit. He spoke to her still body as though
she was still here, as though she could still hear him. “Stephanie Edgley is
the most curious and bright girl I have ever known. Darquesse is my sworn
enemy, but Valkyrie Cain is the woman I love. Valkyrie, you’re not just my
partner, or my best friend…You’re the person who I can’t live without. When you
were dating Fletcher, I was full of envy and I didn’t know why, but looking at
you like this makes me realise the truth, I am in love with you Valkyrie
Cain…Every part of you is amazing, you’ve saved me countless times before and I
most definitely would have killed China if it wasn’t for you, too. When I was
trapped in that dimension with The Faceless Ones, you were all that was on my
mind, at all times of the day and I can’t live without you…” His voice was
still strong, but he felt weak. He touched the symbols to allow the façade to
sink away. He moved a piece of hair out
of her face and stroked her cheek, she was cold. “Valkyrie…” He said, turning
away from her. “I’m sorry I dragged you into this, I knew I shouldn’t have let
you join me today, not in the state that you were in. I’m so sorry about everything I have ever
done. Goodbye.”
He
put the keys to the Bentley in Valkyrie’s pocket, because she loved the Bentley
almost as much as he and he didn’t deserve either of them. He walked away in
silence, his sunglasses were gone and his scarf had fallen. Skulduggery
couldn’t himself to look back, not once.
Valkyrie
was dead. The world was safe from Darquesse. Lord Vile’s armour was lost again.
Was this all for the greater good? Was this his punishment for killing his best
friend’s mother? Skulduggery didn’t know what was happening, nor did he know
why. But he knew he had to avenge Valkyrie’s death, no matter what!
