Title: Soothsayer Chapter 7, Part 2.
“I wonder what
inspires gamblers. Is if the adventure or the love of laziness?” – Paul
Bamikole
I woke
up and realized I couldn’t feel my arms. It said something about my state of
mind that the first thing I thought was, “Where is Sören?” It was quickly
followed by “Oh my fuck, what the hell is wrong with my arms?”
It took
a few seconds for my mind to clear enough that I could figure things out. I was
still outside, although now the sky was completely dark, the sun gone and the
moon obscured by cloud cover. I wasn’t in the dark, though. The car was about
ten feet in front of me, well into the field—how the fuck had it gotten there?
Had Sören driven it there? Had he dragged
it? Either way, the car was facing me, headlights on, so bright that it hurt to
look at them. I could barely make out the silhouette of a man crouched in front
of them, rifling through a bag—my bag.
A bored spirit and competition that wants him dead.

Hi Mariag
DeleteThank you! Surprises, shocks, impromptu battles, they're all coming up.
I agree with VC. This story is so fun! And different. And refreshing. I tried to wait a few weeks, so I could read several posts at once, but failed miserably.
