“You see, Raine , here’s how it is.”
The voice sparked a memory, something a bullet should have smashed out, but hadn’t something that was beyond instinct form before Kate, Before Alexander, before everything when he was the Redcap,, bandit, outlaw, hero. Scourge.
And he and Dean Harper had been best friends, riding in the same gang, two peas in the same pod, laughing smiling joking.
Pain bought him back to the present as the electricity pulled through him and Rob Diamond paced impatiently with a smirk.
Pain bought him back to the present as the electricity pulled through him and Rob Diamond paced impatiently with a smirk.
“He KNOWS! HE HAS TO KNOW You know where Verona is! Tell us Raine..Or you’ll not see Jacobsen or Pooler again… You’ll be floating out in the black and nobody will mourn you…Nobody.”
Hey, Bae?
Back to the past the tow of them laid by a warm fire, staring into the stars that lay above them, skin angst skin and hand held in hand as Dean shivered against him.
“Is this going to last? Me and you against the verse?”
Devlin had remembered laughing just a bit with a soft shake of his head.
“No…Sorry Boo, I don’t think it will, I think we’ll find other people., other places and that’s where we’ll shine but here and now?”
He looked down with a chuckle.
“No Power can stop us. So let’s enjoy it huh?”
Another jolt of Pain and a scream as Devlin came rather painfully back to the here and now as he shook his head and mutters.
“I really don’t know Diamond….lemme go…”
Rob shook his head and gestured ,…and before the pain cut in and memories came back to life.
Hey….Bae How you doing?!
The two were back to Back revolvers cocked and chuckling even as Devlin asked a question that spelled all kinds of trouble.
“Wanna See a Magic trick Boo?”
Dean’s chuckle said it all even as Devlin span a pistol into Dean’s holster and drew a deck of cards with a slight glow to his eyes.
“Abracadabra…”
5 years later the tone was different, Dean was Different, like Devlin had said they’d movedon changed.. and Den had a pistol in his hand with a wry smile.
“Hey Bae, You have something we need, and I can’t take no for an answer..”
He came close and put the deck of cards and steps back again with a grandiose show. Of Bravado but the smallest whisper as he does so.
“Show me some magic…Bae”
The moonlight provided the silhouette to the headache that was about to occur, a short whistling in the background some fabled song of Faith, even as a shadowed figure watched over him the faint shadow of a grin on his lips as the white hat sat on his head , dark clothing matching underneath and an ivory grip iron stood in a quick draw holster at his right hand side
His voice was quiet, sing song, and with the suggestion of something more.
His voice was quiet, sing song, and with the suggestion of something more.
“Do you know what your sin is Bae?”
The sound of a shovel cracks over the back of the head bright sharp pain and relief to the surroundings as The white hat pushed the brim up with a playful smile and crouched as the figure in the now shallow grave tried to find his footing Even as White hat blew a kiss and picked up the Map with a sly grin.
“I know what mine is Boo, and you?”
Two other figures were being hauled into a vehicle in the background as the spaceport just behind them was bustling with excitement and drowning out the violence about to happen.
“You just got unlucky Bae, wrong place…wrong time… “
He starts to take a step Back even as Devlin started to climb up to his feet with a glare and out came the pistol.
“Sorry Bae, choir’s calling.”
Abracadabra…
Bang.
Another flash of pAin and he remembered and the smile became to his lips even as his head started to drop and he whispered blood dripping form between his lips as he drew a ragged breath.
“C..Come closer.”
Rob Diamond approached even as he leant in and Devlin answered ever so gently.
“Abracadabra.”
The game was on.
Well howdy there pardner.
