Blood and Water, Chapter 13, Part 3 - What Lies Beneath...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qOW2eEz9cYk <------------ Watch! 


       Wyvern? What was Jon on about? Wyvern... Wait! The story... Oh... Now Clare understood perfectly... 
       "I choose my father." Jon said clearly. Cole doubled over silently laughing, a smile even played at Lyle's lips. Lyle waved a lazy hand and the ropes binding Jon's father came off. Cole came and cut Clare out and pulled her out of the room gloating. 
       "He chose his father over you. Ha ha ha ha!" Clare was acting shocked but she counted to ten. "'Oh, Wyvern, please forgive me!'" he did what, he thought, was an impression of Jon but was way to high. Clare reached ten in her head.
       She turned and forced her palm out and set it alight. It struck Cole and gave him a burn in the shape of a hand. "You little!" He came at her but she clamped her eyes shut moving on instinct and knowledge of his fighting style. She twisted, elbowed his stomach, grabbed his waist and rotated him to the wall and slammed him into it. He was cursing now but Clare was working on breaking his jaw. Two punches left, three right, one up and a palm to the chin. It cracked and Cole screamed in pain. He turned, thrashing, and tried to knock her off. She kicked him in the shin and he responded with three punches to her gut. The wind rushed out of her and she kicked out purely by instinct and it found purchase between Cole's legs. He fell to the floor and hit his jaw. The pain became to much and he fainted. Clare went back to the door and listened. Jon was helping up his dad and Lyle was gloating. Oh, how people should not be smug, Clare thought. She went in, fists a blaze. 
       "Boo." she said. She threw the first fireball but Lyle was ready, he used his telekinetic powers to put it out but he was not ready for the fiery bull whip that came at him next. It cut his face and it bled. Jon pooled his energy in his hands and spread them wide and there, hanging in mid-air, was his Power Blade. He grabbed it and slashed his uncle in the side. Blood gushed over his crisp white shirt. Clare summoned a thick green vine and wrapped it around Cole's neck while he was staggering back.
       "Why did you do it Lyle?" she had an opportunity to question him, she wasn't going to waist it.
       "Did what?" he wheezed from the choke.
       "You know what. Killed my parents!" she tightened the choke hold so the man's life, who killed her parents, was in her hands - and she liked it. Seeing him struggle and squirm made her feel powerful and full of adrenalin.
       "She told me to!" Lyle screamed "Her, in my head, always. Telling me what to do!"
       Clare looked at Jon. "What's her name?" Jon asked, narrowing his eyes.
       "Lady Cressentina!" Lyle screamed the name and then squealed and fell limp. Clare looked at Jon. She took Lyle's pulse. There was none. 
       "It was a sleeper hold." Clare said. That was when the voice came from Lyle's dead mouth. It was a woman's.
       "Ha ha ha ha! So..." It laughed and then said sweetly yet oddly cold "You've killed my puppet. Oh well. There are others but he was a useful little thing. But Clare, I am coming for you and make note, I will find you." It stopped and Lyle's lips became motionless once more...








Ooh! Second to last paragraph! I love it!

You may have noticed but I have changed my profile picture...


My old one...


It's not exactly my old one but it is the top part of it anyway...


But this is the new one...


 


I like it as my favourite colour is purple and it's a crying angel which just fascinates me... No idea why...

So... Anyway... That's it!

  3. Wow . . . A puppet . . . Good idea, lynxia . . .

    I once read a series where there was a bad guy controlling a bad guy controling a bad guy controling a whole load if other people. The bad-guy-being-controlled trick is always a good one to pull . . .
