Good Shot, But...
The Never Ending Quest - Episode 2550
|
Varney's head jerked back, the arrow had embedded itself deep
inside
his brain.
Andrea yelped with victory. But then her face paled and the crossbow
trembled in her
shaking hands. Varney did not fall but stood there looking down on her
with pure evil in
his eyes. He reached up to the arrow and broke its shaft. He threw the
feathered stick to
the ground and reached for the back of his skull to pull out the pointed
end. Andrea stared
at this with a horrified calm. She could not believe that the creature was
not dead. She
could not believe that she was about to die.
Varney pulled the arrow's head out of his skull and then showed it to the cowering girl, caked with black blood in the palm of his hand. "You cannot kill what is already dead," he whispered to her. She whimpered and pushed herself away from the nightmare, but her back was up against the wall and there was nowhere to run. Suddenly a loud metal crash exploded from the other side of the warehouse. Varney turned to the sound, knowing that it was one of the grates falling to the floor. Someone else was coming. But who? With a hiss he threw the arrowhead away and bent all his will upon the stricken girl. "You are mine, little one. Remain hidden here until I return for you." Andrea nodded mutely, his supernatural will overcoming her shocked and addled wits. Then Varney moved beyond the boxes and went in search of the unknown intruders.
