Recruitment || Killian & Kid
When: 20th May 2010 Where: Seattle {Back alley} With: Killian Briante @multipleoccupancy
“Hey! Two slices each and make them last, got it?” Kid asked, cuffing Beat on the back of his shaggy head as the boy inhaled his first slice. Kid couldn’t blame him, it might’ve been days since the guy had been able to eat- a beating from some rich fucks on a night out left him unable to get to Sarah for a few days. Still, he’d only been able to grab enough bread for a few slices each, until he could get back out later. After, well… IT, Kid had been holding back from his usual haunts in case the burnt man came looking; he wasn’t stupid enough to think you walked away after seeing what he’d seen… Not again anyway.
“Who’s that?” - Eloise’s question had him quickly turning to see, well fuck, to see the man who’d been ingrained in his thoughts the last four days and made his blood run cold: The Burnt Man. “Who is it?” Eloise asked again, her little hand tugging on his sleeve as Kid stared at the figure in the ally mouth. “Chive,” He said, not taking his eyes off the other, “Take the rest of the bread and share it out, two slices each, inside.” They’d been making use of an abandoned warehouse after the junkies inside had been busted last week, most of the doors closed so it was better than most.
“And run if you hear me yell.” He whispered to the second oldest of the group who nodded with narrowed eyes, taking Eloise’s hand from his sleeve and leading the group inside. Kid walked forward, doing his best to appear the picture of ease, and folded his arms- curling his fingers around the handle of a knife hidden in his sleeve. “What do you want?” He asked, pleased his voice was level when he felt nothing but panic and faint nausea at the sight of the man- those inhuman body parts dancing behind his eyes.
