Hey there, since it wouldn't let me contribute my entry to the short story competition on the Skulduggery Pleasant page i decides to write one and post it here instead. Here goes -

Valkyrie groaned, and sat up. "I told you it was a trap," she said.
"No, you said it looked like it was a trap," Skulduggery corrected. "That's completely different."
He helped her up as a door opened behind them and ...Sadistica Tortura walked through, an unsettling smile on her lips.
"Oh, what a lovely little surpise," she said in a feline tone."The famous Skeleton Detective and his assistant Valkyrie Cain. At my merciless hands," she purred. She circled them, staring ay them intently. The door opened again, but this time Drake Shadows walked through. He smiled at Skulduggery and Valkyrie then his lips met Sadistica's. As he pulled away he gave her two pairs of bounded handcuffs.
"It was great meeting you but we really must be on our way," Valkyrie said politely, steping closer to the door. Drake walked over, blocking the exit.
"You musn't leave now, the fun's just about to begin," Sadistica insisted. She walked up to Valkyrie, smelling her. Valkyrie flinched, she hated people getting to close to her. Sadistica started fiddling with Valkyries hair then yanked it suddenly. Valkyrie screamed in pain. Skulduggery went to help her but he hit a wall of shadows Drake was controlling. He sent tendrils of shadows at Skulduggery's hand, just as he was reaching for his pistol. Meanwhile, Sadistica was on top of Valkyrie, scratching at her face and neck. Valkyrie was trying to push her off before she penetrated her skin. They struggled for a bit, Valkyrie growing tired and moaning ever so often. Valkyrie finally punched Sadistica on the side of the jaw and kicked her off, sending her sprawling across the room into Drake, who was struggling with Skulduggery, making him stumble. Skulduggery used the distraction to punch him several more times, ending with a hard uppercut to the chin, knocking Drake out. He landed on top of Sadistica, who hissed and tried to claw her way out from under him. Eventually she gave up and jsut lay there. Skulduggery walked over to where his pistol lay and picked it up. He dusted it off and put it back in it's holster.
"Are you okay?" Skulduggery asked Valkyrie.
"I'm fine," she said. "Just a little sore" Valkyrie walked over to the pairs of handcuffs that Sadistica had dropped during their struggle. She tossed a pair to Skulduggery, who walked over and cuffed Drake. Valkyrie went over to Sadistica, rolled Drake to the side with Skulduggery's help and pulled her arms behind her back cuffing her. Skulduggery pulled out his phone and called the Grand Mage.
"Yes, we've got them. No, they're fine. Yes, okay we will. Just Cleavers. Thanks. Bye," Skulduggery said and hung up." The Cleavers will be here shorly, Ravel says good work." Valkyrie just groaned and slid down the wall. The Cleavers wouldn't be there for another ten minutes. She took that time to relax and think about going home. The Cleavers arrived with two other Sanctuary agents Valkyrie had met once or twice before and she got up and went to sit in the Bently to wait for Skulduggery. He told gave the agents what to do with the couple and got in the Bently. Skulduggery drove Valkyrie back to her house instead of the docks as it was so late at night that nobody would be up.
"Thanks Skulduggery, see you tomorrow," she yawned.
"Take the week off, i have some business i need to deal with and you could really use some rest," he said to her. She nodded and walked away, greatfull to have some time to herself. She walked directly below her bedroom window and made a cushion of air below her to carry her up. Whe she was at the top she open the window and let herself in. The reflection was lying in her bed, staring at her as she came in. Valkyrie said nothing as she changed into her old running shorst and an old t-shirt. The reflection walked over to the mirror and stepped inside, waiting there. Valkyrie touched the mirror and felt the memories flood through her as she got into bed and pulled the covers up to her neck. She lay there engulfed in the warmth of the covers and drifted off thinking about Fletcher.

That's all I've got so far, let me know what you think :3 ~ Cassidy
