Page 32 of Spice's Halloween
“Well, get moving, Prez, lead by example,” Kosmic snapped.
I sent him a dirty look but picked up a shovel.
“How the fuck Undertaker got out of this, I don’t know,” I complained as I started to dig.
“How did Spice and the others escape this?” Wyvern grumbled.
“Fuckers used their age,” Griffin answered as he grabbed a shovel and began digging with me.
“Sounds about right. They’re up for shit until there are consequences, and then they pull, ‘Oh, we’re old now, we can’t do that.’ Bullshit,” Kosmic stated with a snarl. But there was no heat in it.
“Should have made them come out,” Noble said.
“I did. They’re on patrol, so I didn’t have to listen to their whining,” I replied and concentrated on digging.
Dynamo, Wisecrack, and Soar
“This sucks, I can’t believe we’re here patrolling a graveyard on Halloween,” I complained.
“You’re telling me. Fuckin’ Old Timers, I had a honey and movie lined up for tonight,” Wisecrack replied.
“The fuck you had a honey, more like a barfly,” Soar retorted.
Amused, I snorted, and they both spun to me.
“Why you are you laughing, Dynamo?” Wisecrack asked.
I winked at our Chaplin. “Dude, I had a date with my friend Bob.”
“TMI, Dynamo,” Soar groaned.
I was about to laugh but heard a second groan. The hairs on the back of my neck stood up, and goosebumps broke out over my arms. That hadn’t sounded… human.
“Did you hear that?” Wisecrack demanded, looking around.
“That’s one of the brothers messing about,” I said quickly. I loved horror movies, but the fuck, I was going to star in one.
We were walking a path and surrounded by tall gravestones. Tonight was cloudy, and as most of the town was trick or treating, it was deathly quiet out here. Which is why when I heard another noise I spun around and shone my torch in the direction it came from.
“What was that?” Soar asked, sounding spooked.
“Probably an animal,” I replied, my eyes searching for signs.
The sound echoed again, and we all jumped.
“That’s not a critter. That sounds like something digging,” Soar announced.
“Nobody is digging out here, and the boys are far away,” I said, but I moved behind Wisecrack, who sent me a sceptical look.
“Are you fuckin’ kidding me?” he asked.
“Dude, I’ll rip a man apart, but I ain’t dealing with zombies,” I said.
“Says everyone’s walking nightmare,” Soar retorted.
Bitchily, I gave Soar a stare and then kicked him up the ass using my abilities and made him move forward.
“I’ll get you for this, Dyn—oh fuckin shit,” Soar exclaimed as his voice rose.
