Chapter 43 - 43

I threw on a black sweater, some matching black jeans, black converse. And I made sure to pin my hair up in a bun. After grabbing my keys and backpack, I headed into the commons area, surprised to find Elizabeth sitting there. She jumped up when she saw me though. "Skeleton Queen! Where on Earth have you been?" "I was actually able to get some sleep last night." I told her, holding both my hands behind my back, and giving a big, believable smile. She crossed her arms and squinted at me. But she didn't say anything. "Hm. Fine, fine. Your free from.my interagitation." "I was about to walk away anyway." I said, before heading outside, and putting my helmet on. "Wait! Where are you going now?" Elizabeth asked from the doorway. "Oh-just a quick snack run!" I lied, and started my bike's engine, then drove off before she could ask anymore questions.

By the time the news came on, I was waiting behind the abondaned hospital where I'd first met Connor. I was watching the news on my phone, and had finished changing into my hero costume, when he interrupted the news. "Terribly sorry to barge in like this, but I'm sure that everyone knows who I am. The notorious villain, Mr. Fallout. It's a pleasure to meet you-ugh, no, it's not, and I'm not sorry to barge in like I did. Anyway, I've got some big plans, but I made a deal with a certain hero. She goes by The Skeleton Queen, and if she's able to stop me in our fight, I'll stop my plans and turn myself in as a bonus! But if I win, however, my plans will happen, and I'll kill her. That's all for now. Buh-bye!" I turned my phone off, and waited for him to show up, resting my helmet upside down on my motorcycles handlebar. I was slowly preparing myself for the fight. Going over every single mental note I'd taken of him and his power and how he liked to attack. Surely he'd lose. Because if he didn't the world would turn into a living Hell.
