“What do we do with him?” Alyssa asked Stash, still kneeling beside Constantine. “We could kill ‘im.” Stash said while raising his shovel, a devilish grin on his face. Alyssa squeaked, “No, no!” she said, holding her arms up as if to stop a blow. She stood up, “There has to be something…” She snapped her fingers. “Aha!” Alyssa pulled a thick coil of rope out of her apron pocket. Stash began to speak, “Where does all this come fr-”
“It’s best not to ask questions.” Alyssa interrupted, dragging her unconscious brother to the nearest tree. Stash stood a few yards away, looking down and thinking. “Well help me!” Alyssa shouted, trying to pick up her brother and tie him to the thickest tree in the area. Stash hurried over to her and held Constantine to the tree as Alyssa tied him up as tightly as possible. A moment later Alyssa stood back with Stash, admiring their work. “You know, it’s not gonna hold him forever.” Stash said, looking down at the small blonde-haired girl. Alyssa felt a pang of sadness and hung her head. “I know, but what else can we do?” She said in a small voice. “We could kill ‘im” Stash replied. Alyssa glared up at Stash, “We’re not killing my brother, even if he has gone homicidally insane.” Stash shrugged, “Have it your way.” and began to walk off. “Hey, wait!” Alyssa called and caught up with him. The rain slowly let up and Alyssa began to shiver. She hadn’t realized how cold it was. “I-I h-h-hate this w-weather.” Alyssa shivered, hugging herself. In a few moments they had made their way back to the shack Stash and Hub called home, and Alyssa called a nightmare. It was a far cry from the mansion out in the country of England. It was dark and everything inside was lined up recklessly on the walls. The windows were old and cracked, covered in grime, and there were cobwebs everywhere. She stepped inside hesitantly, looking around. Normally she slept outside, under the stars, but tonight she would have to sleep inside. As it turned out, Hub had laid down a sleeping on the floor for her. She smiled softly, at least one of them was kind-hearted. She sat down on the sleeping bag and felt someone put a blanket over her shoulders. She looked up to see Hub’s pudgy, side-burned face. Alyssa smiled up at him, “Thank-you.” she said, wrapping the blanket around her soaked body. Slowly her shivering ceased and she lay down. “What time is it?” She asked the ghouls, who just shrugged. “I’m gonna have to call the nearest office of The Order and tell them about Constantine tomorrow. Do you guys have a phone?” They simultaneously shook their heads. Alyssa sighed, “I thought not, and I don’t get a signal for my cell phone all the way out here. We’re too far away from civilization to visit the office personally. I’ll have to wait until this whole thing is over…” She yawned. She was rambling and didn’t realize it. Alyssa drifted off into a deep sleep.
