part 2
Ariel knows that as a secretary of a famous detective, one that often works for the Scotland Yard, she is immune to certain crimes(immune is not the same as apathy) so when her boss starts investigating a cult that workship a thing called Knull and then vanish from the face of Earth it shouldn´t be anything common, but, they aren´t expecting this.
“The place is full of draws of eyes” Ariel mutters to herself as her boss is expecting the place, so far, no human soul aside them and that´s never a good sign.
And it got worse when Ariel feels something is stalking her, well, she has a piston ready in case of the whoever tries anything funny and the same is for her boss (who seems to sense the same thing)
Suddenly, a lunatic step from the shadows with a knife and is screaming. “For the Glory of Knull” and Ariel shots him, but, surprisingly that didn´t stop him as he continues.
And again, out of the shadows, another figure appears and cut the lunatic´s neck and he finally stops. Ariel is looking at her saviour/new enemy(?) with cautious and he in all his mysterious persona, points to where her boss should be…and she sees him running away from the dark figure.
Ariel didn´t flick as she points a gun to the figure´s face. The man is fully masked but she can feel him smiling and in one go…he´s gone and Ariel is alone. Her boss thought he redeem himself by coming back with the police squad but Ariel shows him the middle finger and berates him until she couldn´t and the police squad can´t help to admire Ariel´s courage.
And she can´t help to wonder who that figure was.
“You should quite and …”
“I can´t quit even if my boss is a jerk and no I won´t go after a husband, thank you very much”
“Maybe change your work?”
“Good jobs and bosses are hard to find. Better stick with the devil you know”
Somehow, somewhere, Kurt Darkholme sneeze and he has no idea why.
