Whateley Independent Fiction (130)
Metro 1: Chewing Through The Straps (Part 1)
Written by null0trooperTell me if you've heard this one before: Two young men walk into a Dunwich bar.
The first one says to the second one there, "I hope you're having fun."
... except the first one there isn't really there yet, they're both underaged, the other one has a sacrificial knife in his gut - because, why not? - and the bar is really a hospital. Welcome to Whateley, gentleman. The first unit of blood's on the house...
Four families on four converging roads to Whateley: it's not the destination as much as it is who you bring with you on your journey.
To fledgling Heroes learning their trade, the Twelve Jurors are an example of why one should think twice about hot pursuit when the other side holds a grudge. Bad Guys have bad hair days; who knew? Case closed. No one ever asks about the rest of the story.
