___________________:]___________________

   If you told me years ago that I would meet all these people, deal with the apocalypse, and vomit black liquid while glowing. I would have sent you to the loony bin. Now that I'm living like this, I think I'll pass on ever ignoring the signs of danger. At the moment, I'm still on the floor. The pain has stopped but I'm still glowing. That doesn't happen usually. Hopefully it's not permanent. I'm going to go out on a limb and say that since Shooter is up, everyone is up. But until then, I'm sitting on the floor, holding on for dear life. Because I know if I let go, so will he. Until this moment ends, I'll hold him by me. Even if I can't have him, even if this is the only time I'll get. In these moments, I'll cry. Not because of the physical pain, but the pain of knowing he'll never be mine. 

What a fun game of cat and mouse we play.

        "What's going on here? Why the hell are you two by the window and what's that on the floor?!" I heard Su ask in a moment of panic. I looked over Shooter's shoulder to see Su, Bp, Brutux, Katani, Apocalipsis and a pig. Wait a damn minute.

"When did the pig get here?" I asked, being completely serious.

"Ouch, what the hell did I do to you?" Katani said, also completely serious. Everyone turned  back to the pig, then looked back at the two of us. I guess the pig was a good distraction.

"Okay but what the hell is going on?" Bp asked. I can't avoid questions forever, but I sure as hell can ask questions of my own.

"The better question is what the hell is outside that fucking door and why did it activate the... Thing?" I asked them. This must have piqued everyone else's curiosity because they were all looking at Su and Bp. The two of them looked at each other and nodded, before Su spoke up.

"The real reason you are all here is because that field is crawling with shadows. We didn't let you see it before because we knew you wouldn't sleep knowing what was out there. Clearly Sheriff here is a little  

more than 'Odd' and could even be one of them." Su said, looking directly at me.  We were a bit shocked to say the least. Keeping a giant secret from us just to save your own skin? Kind of a dick move, but I understand slightly. 

"So you're saying you want us to go out there and kill all those shadow cunts?" Shooter asked. Well, he understood better than me. I thought we were shadow chow.

"All except one, the largest. That one can be cured." Bp said. Wait a minute what? When the hell was there a cure for these bastards?

"So you mean to tell me I was killing people?!" I yelled in a panic. Shooter looked at me, then realised he did most of the killing. Apparently seventy-five percent of my shots miss the target.

"Only the big guys like Seekers, CandleLighters, and the overlords. If they weren't dead before." Su said. Well damn, we only killed one Seeker, so we only killed one person. 

"So in a nutshell, we save your friend, then we're free to go?" Brutux asked. I guess we could have stayed at this weird base, but that's a group decision.

"Yes, but I personally wouldn't recommend leaving. These monsters are fucking cunts." Bp said.

"Yeah, we know. It's not our first rodeo." Shooter replied. The two of us got off the floor as Bp pulled out a gun.
