Well, the reason that happened in chapter 8 is because (after checking my notes) this book is only going to have like 18 or 19 chapters, unless I find a way to stretch it.

Internet's getting buggy, but I'll try to post another chapter.

EDIT: Scratch that. My internet decided to get funny again. And, after the day I had today, I'm really in no mood to put up with it right now.

Let's try this once more. Forgive me if it's brief -- this whole book will be brief.
 
CHAPTER NINE:
Restrained Trophies

Somehow, the HQ had undergone a rather dramatic transformation in the span of a few hours.  Now the architecture had an Arabic palace twist to it, and the RAFians were situated rather decoratively around the makeshift palace. All of the RAFians were unconscious, gagged or muzzled, and their head lolled to one side.  There was only one RAFians that was semiconscious, and he was nowhere to be seen.
 
Malice walked sedately around, with Rumor flapping in a most distracting way behind her. They were taking in the decorative nature of their noncognizant, unconscious RAFians. Rumor squawked rather like a parrot.
 
"Yes," Malice agreed.  "They really do pull a room together, don't they?"
 
Rumor chittered in agreement, then hesitantly barked like a sea lion.
 
"Oh?" Malice said, as if this rose her from a reverie.  "Don't worry about that one.  We'll get to him later.  He'll break easily."
 
Rumor mewed three times.
 
SMACK!
 
"I find you lack of faith disturbing," Malice said, coldly quiet. "He will break. He will."
 
Rumor said nothing, but seriously doubted this.

"Anyway," Malice said, stepping back into her calm, casual demeanor, "the Piper did a good job.  Simply lovely."

Rumor made an odd cooing noise.

"Oh, he'll get paid.  He'll get his reward, don't worry about that."
 
***

Deep within the bowls of the dungeon was a room so white that an unicorn would look the dingiest of grays.  There, arms chained outward, head bowed, legs and tail pinioned together by tylee metal rings, was Cloak.  He looked the most defeated that he had ever looked, barring the torment inflicted on him by his mother.
 
The room did not appear to have any doors, any exits of any kind.  The walls were seamless, featureless and plain.  THere was illumination somehow, as everything was in perfect relief, visable.

Cloak was only semiconscious, but his powers were unaccessible to him in such bindings. He only knew a resounding depression . . . the trap . . . he should have saw, should have realized. . . .

It is darker than you originally intended it to be.

Is your Internet your own, Cloaky, or is it a public network?

Okay, started planning out Book CXCI ("The Attention Hog").

Is your Internet your own, Cloaky, or is it a public network?

My guess is public network, as the Internet is included in my rent.

I'll try to post another chapter if the Internet is agreeable today (I honestly think the weather plays a part in it).

Well, if the cables are underground I doubt the weather will affect them - not so much with satellite or wireless though. But then again, if the apartment or wherever you're living in is the one supplying the internet, then you can expect it to be screwy... It's like college Wi-Fi.

I believe it is wireless.

Oh, and I'm not suspended up in that room, I'm on my knees.

CHAPTER TEN:
Paying the Piper

Malice lounged on a thone whose precious metals and gems had been plucked clean from it. Malice didn't really care, she was relishing her victory.

Rumor landed on a perch and squawked and squeaked.

"Very well, then," Malice said unconcernedly, sitting up straighter. "Send him in."

Rumor flew out of the room --literally flew -- and went to fetch the Piper. Malice drummed her fingers impatiently as she waited. The Piper even coming was foolhardy, but his avarice had taken ahold of him.

He stepped into the expansive room, unaware of Malice's motivations and true intents. It is a very dangerous position to be in.

The Piper wore a very stern and hard look. This was when he would have to force the client to fork over their cash, because, like the fabled pied piper before him, more often than not his clients would try to stiff him out of payment. Henwould have to force them -- usually by making them dance until their feet bled, knowing that such claims of "he made me dance until my feet bled" would be dismissed and derided.

"What brings you here, Piper?" Malice said, girlishly coy.

The Piper said nothing but just stood stoically there.

"Aw, why so serious?" Malice said, still coy, rising to her feet.

"You know what I want," the Piper said, voice cracking from lack of use.

"Yes, yes. Your . . . reward." Malice said airily.

The Piper glared at her, due to the wording, and rose one eyebrow. Malice was getting much too close now. Much to close for comfort. The Piper frowned on cross-species relationships.

"Your . . . eternal reward." she said, stabbing him much like she killed Abomination. The Piper collapsed to the ground. Then she snarled to the dying man, "Don't mess with me, little man."

Then she stepped away, looking at the blood soaking the ground. She muttered, as she snapped the Piper's flute. "Ugh. Dwellers. So messy to kill."

Rumor yipped quietly.

"Yes, yes, yes -- go get it and have it clean up this mess." she said, dismissively.
