"You can't make me fall, and I will never falter. As long as I survive, I won't

let you thrive." I spoke softly, my voice set with determination. I felt it drift

away into the darkness. I realized with an annoyed smirk that the hair on

my neck stood on end. With every fiber of my dissolving being, I forced

myself not to shiver in horror. Instead, I tightened my grip on the cane's

handle.

Sharp hissing echoed off the walls. For just a moment, it seemed to come from

all sides. Ghosts and Spirits! Challenging Demonspawn! I must be out of

my mi-- NO!

I resisted the urge to wince. If I kept mindshouting like that I'd end up

searing my mind. Then I’d be in a pinch. As if I wasn’t already. I'd done

some stupid things before, some very stupid things, but ... No!NO!

I made a show of shaking the thoughts away. Once more, I let my hand

tighten around the long ebony handle.

Thirty inches of enchanted silver, folded to perfection. When I’d bought it,

the blade had looked to be enough to take on anything I might find. It

seemed I’d been wrong. Now, hopefully I wouldn’t have to prove it.

"Immortal..." A soft voiced spat from behind one of the many crates in the

ware house. Left

I spun silently on my heel, seeking the enemy in the shadows. Nothing

moved. This was why I hated the dark! And castles... especially ruined

ones... and virtually anything that lived in said ruins... NO!

Since waking in London I'd had trouble concentrating on any single thing.

Now I needed all that pent up concentration. I needed to be here, now.

This thing was to dangerous to fight in a daze. I had to--

It was like my head swam, the room was suddenly bright and vivid.

Groaning I felt myself collapse as the ground flowed upward.

I barely managed to catch myself on my hands and knees. This couldn't be

happening. I needed the dam to break. NOW


Damn...
