âThen Valkyrie clicked her fingers and Ryan yelped when fire suddenly flared in her palm. He tore off his jacket and flung it over her forearm, batting out the flames.Â
âWhat the hell are you doing?â she raged, trying to push him back.Â
âYouâre on fire!â he squealed manfully.â

ââSo you canât use the car park. Itâs staff only. Also, there are no pets allowed.âÂ
âWell,â said Skulduggery, âthatâs quite rude. I mean, I wouldnât call Valkyrie a pet so much as a-âÂ
Valkyrie sighed. âHe meant the dog.âÂ
âOh,â Skulduggery said.â

âDesmond Edgely threw back his head and sang, âHappy birthday to you, happy birthday to you, you look like a monkey, and you smell like one, too!â and laughed like a drain as Valkyrie blew out her candles. It had been the same lyrics every year since she was old enough to know what a monkey was. She had grown up and matured. Her father had not.â

âValkyrie hesitated. The doorway shimmered. She licked her lips, then turned sideways and inched forward into the house.Â
Skulduggery stood watching her. âWhat are you doing?âÂ
âBeing careful,â she said under her breath.Â
âYou walk through doorways every day and manage not to bounce off one side or the other.âÂ
âStop distracting me.âÂ
âYou could walk in with your hands on your hips and you still wouldnât touch the sides.âÂ
She took the last step as a hop, then gasped in relief.Â
âYou puzzle me,â Skulduggery said.â

âMaster Craven had been so kind as to provide him with a map. If this map were by anyone elseâs hand, Scapegrace would have dismissed it as crudely drawn - but the Masterâs work was a deceptively childlike scrawl that implied more than it showed. As such, even though Scapegrace was having trouble working out where exactly they were going, he had a much deeper cultural understanding of where he had been.â

ââHi Valkyrie,â Carol whispered.Â
Crystal jabbed Carol with an elbow. âDonât call her that!âÂ
Carol glared. âI whispered it. No one else could hear.âÂ
âYou still shouldnât call her that! Call her Stephanie!âÂ
A few more precious moments of life were sucked away from Valkyrieâs grasp, never to be seen again.â

ââAnd if we find Melior, but Lethe and the others are still with him?âÂ
âWeâll run away.âÂ
She thought for a moment. âThatâs honestly the best plan youâve ever come up with.âÂ
âI thought youâd like it.ââ

I cross the place where my heart used to be and hope to be even deader than I am now.

ââDo you remember the walks we used to take?âÂ
âNot especially.âÂ
âI canât either,â he admitted. âI wasnât really a walker when I was alive, was I? I was more of a sitter.â He smiled wistfully. âI did love to sit.ââ

ââSo that plan worked out well,â he said.Â
âSkulduggery, your entire plan consisted of, and I quote, âLetâs get up close and then see what happens.ââ
âAll the same,â he said, âI think the whole thing worked out rather beautifully.ââ

âWas it really the fault of the Engineer that it had decided to go for a walk, or that when the ping sounded, when the Engineer was finally needed to leap into action, instead of being right here, ready to help, it was on a beach in Italy looking for unusual shells?â
- The Engineer in Skulduggery Pleasant: Last Stand of Dead Men by Derek Landy
ââSo much for the moral high ground.âÂ
Stephanie laughed. âYeah, you canât stay up there any longer.âÂ
âI loved that place,â Valkyrie muttered.Â
âThe moral high ground is overrated,â Skulduggery said, âand the viewâs much better from down here. Come along, troublemakers.ââ

ââHelp,â he said. He reached out and heard a crash. Another tray of drinks bites the dust. He stepped back, bumped into someone, heard the unmistakeable intake of breath that accompanies a well-dressed lady spilling wine down the front of her dress. âTerribly sorry,â Gordon said, spinning quickly, hitting someone else and getting a muffled curse in response.â

âValkyrie raised an eyebrow at him. âYouâre not very good at acting casual.âÂ
âI forget how,â Ryan confessed, skipping away from a suspicious-looking two-year-old holding a balloon.â

âOmen looked at Valkryie. âCould I be your protĂ©gĂ©?âÂ
She looked horrified. âWhat? No. I donât have protĂ©gĂ©s. Iâm too young to have protĂ©gĂ©s. Iâm only twenty-four, for Godâs sake. I barely know what a protĂ©gĂ© is. Iâm still the kid here. Iâm still theâŠSkulduggery, tell him. Iâm the young one in this whole dynamic.âÂ
Skulduggery nodded. âYou definitely are the young one. Though technically he is younger.ââ

ââI was attacked by a shark once, back when I was alive. Well, not so much a shark as a rather large fish. And not so much attacked as looked at menacingly. But it had murder in its eyes, that fish. I knew, in that instant, if our roles had been reversed and the fish had been holding the fishing pole and I had been the one to be caught, it wouldnât hesitate a moment before eating me. So I cooked it and ate it before it had a chance to turn the tables.âÂ
âThat,â Valkyrie said, âis one of the most useless stories youâve ever told me.ââ
