A/N: For P100 prompt 837: Out Of Time. Sequel to The Last Night, Third Times The Charm and Hubris.



My heart skipped a beat as I heard the scratching and watched as the door began to gape from its frame. The gap widening as I watched in horrified fascination as a skeletal taloned hand slide into view.

I had ran out of time, and it was only then I realised I'd been holding on to the hope I'd be rescued. Even though it would have been a death sentence to anyone foolish enough to try.

I raised Vera and waited, every shot would have to count. And I would count every shot, for the last would be for me.

Ouch. *sniffles*
That's really painful.
Well done!

Sorry... but James thinks better a quick death than being torn to pieces.

Thanks for reading.

You better ask Becker that question...

Sorry, the prompt was just too perfect not to do this.

Thanks for reading.

Beeeecker, where are you? Your armed damsel in distress needs a knight.

[knitekat.livejournal.com]

James is wondering that as well. Although he mutters he's not a damsel in distress and is, in fact, a knight. But he wouldn't mind a rescue.. but not if it cost Becker his life.

Thanks for reading.

Killer of a last line! But I hope not literally!

[knitekat.livejournal.com]

Sorry. James would prefer it doesn't end up literal too.

Thanks for reading.
