All have turned towards the castle, which is bathed in a golden glow as the sun slowly sinks down behind the trees. Were a stranger to walk into Lesko... this very evening, he would surely join the citizens in their admiration, all the while wondering how happy they must be to have a view like this one in front of their eyes, every day of their lives. The stranger would not be able to stop thinking about how wonderful life in a town like this must be. He would feel envy for all those people. " Wendy gave him a sad look. "Well, I did before you started making plans for me and refused to hear what I wanted. You leave me no choice. You know how my parents treated me. My father took my disability check and cashed it every month. My mother got one of my brothers hired by the state to be my care taker and I told you what he and his friends did to me." Wen, you know I'd never do any of that stuff to you." Cole looked at her, horrified that she would ever think of him as an evil. Ash sat next to me and gently rubbed against my thigh with her leg. I could see a sparkle in her eyes, that said she was glad to be here with me. We all continued to talk and dance, and I certainly got some looks dancing with three young women who looked HOT. At about two in the morning, Renee and her friends took a cab to Beth’s house, while Ash and I stayed until closing, talking and dancing and just having a good time careful not to do anything that an Uncle and a niece shouldn’t do, at. With silent grace she knelt beside the corpse and pulling her dagger slid it between the noose and the broken mockery of his neck. With another quick flick of her wrist the noose fell away, and in that same moment she bent to kiss it. The kiss was intended to fall full upon it’s ruined lips but instead encountered the knuckles of a bony fist which had swung up to greet her with a strength she would never have imagined possible. As she fell back the corpse moved like a striking snake grabbing.
