Darquesse laughed as she flew in the air. She felt the air shift and turned to see Lord Vile floating beside her. He punched and her skull immediately burst. She healed it and kicked him. He flew backwards and tumbled in the air. She laughed.
Lord Vile snarled and used the shadows to wrap around Darquesse's throat. She grunted and used her ring to cut the tendril. She landed on the ground and Lord Vile followed.
"What are you, a stalker?" Darquesse laughed. Lord Vile didn't reply.
"Listen, Skulduggery, Vile, whoever you are, Darquesse is coming. You can't stop her. Valkyrie, me, is Darquesse. I know you understand this."
"Go away. Bring Valkyrie back."
"But I am Valkyrie," Darquesse said, tilting her head. "You know this, right? I know you do."
Darquesse put her hands in her pockets when Lord Vile didn't respond.
"Right." Darquesse said. "I'm sick of waiting. Are we going to fight, or are you going to talk again? Because I love talking. And I know you do too. The other you, I mean. Skulduggery. He loves talking. But I wouldn't mind fighting again. That's fun too."
Lord Vile took her hand. "Valkyrie..." he muttered.
Darquesse's eyes widened. "What are you doing?" she asked.
Lord Vile knelt. "Valkyrie," he said, pain in his voice, "Come out. You don't want to hurt anyone, I know you don't. Please, Valkyrie."
Darquesse thought for a moment.
"Fine." she said.
She breathed in and Valkyrie looked at Lord Vile. She screamed when she saw how close he was to her. Then his hands reached up and he took off his armour. "I prefer being me." he said.
Valkyrie nodded. "I do too."
He lifted her and flew into the air, heading straight for Ghastly's.

Ravel looked out from his hiding place, shaking. Valkyrie Cain, the Miss Cain they all knew and respected, was Darquesse?! And Skulduggery... he was Lord Vile?! This was too much for Ravel. He ran to his car quickly. He had to tell the other Elders. He had to warn them.
