The travelling shovel of death

Just decided to kill off one of my characters and decided to use the tsod, simply because it's fun and in this years novel none of the deaths have been that different, and I felt things were getting sappy so decided to throw in a surprise killing.

Elia moved a strand of hair from her face, it was matted with blood and dust, all around her were bodies of creatures that she could barely look at, and faces of people, real human people with families and loved ones, and she had helped destroy them all, she turned her head away from them unable to hide her guilt. She glanced around at the other faces, the faces of her friends, relieved and smudged with dirt and blood whether their own or their enemies Elia couldn't tell, she watched Lucy as the more advanced healers tended to her properly, she watched Lacey jump around waving her top hat and yelling orders, and lastly her forest green eyes settled on Caleb. His muscled form bent over in exhaustion his dark hair turned gray with the amount of dust that had settled in it, his blue eyes closed and pensive, and Elia was over come with the emotion to run to him, protect and comfort him as a strange and unknown feeling of longing swelled within her breast.
She was to preoccupied with her thoughts and those surrounding her were either to exhausted or too engrossed in healing wounded that they didn't notice Greg rise slowly from the ground, straightening his midnight blue robes, his glare sets around the stone pillars falling on Elia, he snarls, "I will avenge you my dear sweet Cerys," he thinks, looking around him he finds a shovel used to dig the pit for water, he lifts it and limps over to Elia, silently and cautiously, raising the blunt dirt encrusted weapon high in the air, before lowering it down squarely on the back of her skull, effectively crushing it.

 
TADA! this was harder to write than it should have been... she kept wanting to make it perverse, but I have an age rating on my writing and those trains of thoughts were going waaaayy outside limits -shudder- hope you liked it though!

Skulduggery pleasant fanfiction... thing? part 1

Celestia turned on the girl opposite her, "You've been following me," she jerked one of her fingers, and the girl fell to the floor clutching her chest,
"I don't like being followed, generally stalkers are frowned upon anyway of course, but I especially don't like it," she placed a silver ring with black markings back onto her finger.
The girl on the floor doubled over, resisting the urge to throw up her lunch,
"You... You're like me," she choked, "I just moved here, I haven't met any other mages so far, and... I'm gonna be sick," she placed a hand over her own mouth,
"Not over me please, if you don't mind I just bought these shoes, and I'm afraid I can't help you find anything magic related around here, I don't get involved with other people, I'm too dangerous, that's why I wear this," she held up her finger so the other girl could clearly see the ring on her finger,
"It's bound see, means I can't use magic while I wear it," and she waved her hand around for effect, "What were you looking for anyway? The sanctuary or something?"
Celestia watched her stand up, she was paler than she had been when she had first rounded on her, and she was pretty darn pale to start with, she swayed on her feet for a moment, before brushing the dark hair out of her face, "Or something like that... I'm Rilla by the way, Rilla Styx," her breath was becoming short and shallow, she seemed to be finding it difficult to stand.
"Celestia Terror... Are you okay? You look like you're about to pass out," she stepped back, she didn't know what to do with a fainting person, cause if she caught her that would be like violating her personal space and she didn't even know her, but letting her hit the concrete didn't sound like such a good idea either
"I probably am... Don't worry about it, happens all the time," and she fainted, Celestia caught her arm and hauled her upwards so her body weight was against her, "Now what do I do? I can't leave you unconcious in an alleyway... Guess you're coming with me then," and she lifted her, the years of training her mentor had put her through were really paying off now.
