Simon's knees hurt. In truth, he hurt all over, but his knees were the body part he was focused on right now. They were all kneeling with their arms cuffed behind their backs in front of some ghetto-rigged altar: Blake, Angela, creepy Agent Winters (who Simon still didn't trust, no matter how clueless she was), The Baron—who wasn't so much kneeling, as he was slumped over—and himself. Lying nearby was a cop that had gotten worked over pretty good. His badge read &quot;Crowe&quot;, and Simon wasn't sure if he was even breathing. Simon noted bitterly that he was the only one gagged. They were probably afraid he'd call another _kug_, which wasn't likely to happen. Simon's _kug_ calling days were behind him. Up on the altar was Dr Gage, butt-naked and chained. She was kind of hot, for a dead lady. There were Dho-Nha equations scribbled all over her body. Dho-Nha? Not good. Somebody was trying to put something inside of Dead Girl, and they wanted it to stay in. _&quot;Blurg,&quot;_ Simon thought. _&quot;Maybe I should rephrase that.&quot;_ 2008-02-20T03:40:54Z http://ficlets.com/feed/story/13989 <p><em>...I wonder if he uses AXE body wash…</em><br />And this time the comments-rating goes to Fyora.<br />.<br />The beginning for this story really starts at: http://ficlets.com/stories/10848 but if you want the quicker version: http://ficlets.com/stories/11737</p> http://ficlets.com/stories/13989?basename=42423 2008-02-20T03:40:54Z Alexa ♥ http://ficlets.com/authors/alexa1018 <p>You, Mr. CMTKOM , are the master of descriptions. as in, &#8220;some ghetto-rigged altar&#8221; &#8211; colorful and, as always, a delightful read. &#8211; Yoda</p> http://ficlets.com/stories/13989?basename=24750 2007-11-24T15:23:46Z YodaOnCrack http://ficlets.com/authors/yodaoncrack <p>My goodness this story began many a ficlet ago. It would be exhausting to get caught up now but, wow. Tarzan, you and the rest here are in deep, like novella deep (maybe that&#8217;s an exaggeration). I&#8217;m new but I hope to one day write and be inspired as much as you are. bravo.</p> http://ficlets.com/stories/13989?basename=24039 2007-11-19T15:20:05Z Tad Winslow http://ficlets.com/authors/tjd <p>I&#8217;m thrilled, too, that Simon&#8217;s &#8220;<em>kug</em> calling days&#8221; are behind him&#8212;I&#8217;d worried that I&#8217;d let Simon off the hook too easily and not really done a good job of conveying the <em>awfulness</em> of what he&#8217;d resorted to: you&#8217;ve done a great job of continuing and expanding that theme.
