EERIE

THE ACTOR, THE LIAR BY SAD HEROES

I’ve fallen asleep on the couch long after the call with Constantine. My mind is still uneasy and restless, but I’m drowning in exhaustion from dealing with this bullshit that I pass out anyway after removing my pants, because who wouldn’t? I wake unexpectedly, hearing a noise from the other room. It’s ridiculously late, I can tell from the silence and stillness in the air. Grim gives a low growl, when a bullet flies by my head and lands in the wall behind me. The shooter is using a silencer, because there’s little to no noise besides the tiny pew noise.

“Merde,” I mutter, rolling off the couch and grabbing t. 4o7[]\he 9mm I keep under the couch for situations precisely like this. There are weapons all over the house in several discrete places. I duck behind the couch. “Grim, trouver Sable.” Find Sable. He takes off to wake Sable while I handle this. I watch as the man in black clothing runs out the front door.

“I think the fuck not.” I scramble after him. He’s smart, zig zagging all over the yard like I’m an alligator chasing after him as he attempts to abandon ship. Too bad he’ll never make it. I fire off a shot and hit him in the leg before tackling him to the ground. I don’t see the lights turn on in the house before I knock the gun out of his hands and proceed to beat the ever loving snot out of him. He manages to elbow me in the nose, right before I put him in a chokehold and he passes out. The men stagger out and all of them look completely half asleep and bewildered. What a fucking joke. Why is it a woman can handle a situation that would take five men? There’s one thing that all men have in common.

They’re all disappointing in one aspect or another.

“Uh, who the fuck is that?” One of them says. I’m pretty sure it’s Atlas. I roll my eyes.

“It seems someone has sent someone to kill me,” I respond.

“Where are your clothes, Eerie?” Sable says, pinching the bridge of his nose like he like he literally cannot with me right now.

“Not on my body. I’m pretty sure he’s dead,” I respond.

“What happened?” Ezra asks.

“I was on the couch asleep. I woke up to Grim growling and someone shot at me. If they weren’t a shit shot, they probably would’ve hit me. I sent Grim to wake Sable. Asshole ran off and here we are.”

“Here we are, she says.” Sable runs a hand over his face as if he just can’t deal with me anymore, and I watch as Bash walks over to the body and looks at his face with a look of awe.

“You broke his jaw in six places, Eerie. His head is completely internally decapitated.” The others start yelling, each attempting to talk over the other.

“Please shut the fuck up.” They immediately quiet down. “Someone call a clean up crew.
