[NightShade]

---

Humming softly Nightshade cleaved thru the mans skin. The lilting tunes coming from her bouncing off the walls.

Blood of course spilt forth and she mopped it up as she went.

She worked tirelessly carefully extracting enough bone for her project. Each tiny bit retrieved right down to the fingers. Dark Wisps flitted about her as she maimed the corpse whispering in their wispish tongue. She like an archaeologist, dug thru the bodies muscular structure pulling apart the skeletal structure.

The healer had wandered about fire island as ussual, and Shade, needing a new healers robe and a dead body for her task had killed him. It hadnt been a death like the ussual ones more a death out of necessity. So , in her hurry, she had made his death quiet and quick, simply jabbing her poison filled dagger into the healers spine. He had of course sputtered a few choice words of nonsense then given over to the intoxication of her poison falling limp on the ground twitching. Thusly she had dragged him back to the Vault and began her grim task. She wasnt much for body excavation, but for now it was quite necessary.

At last she had come to the skull. What a fine adornment for the top of the box. She set it aside, and began the monotonous task of filing and assembling the bone into a finely wrought rectangle. Polishing and smoothing the bones till they seemed to meld into one.

She pushed the leftovers of the man in a pile on the floor, a bucket of blood next to it so she could focus clearly on the bones at hand. At last she lifted the box and held it before her, her eyes gleaming green. She new her teacher would appreciate her efforts, it was perfect to carry the gift within it.

Now what to do with this mess? She pondered idly, smiling she chanted Uus Corp and the mess animated into a pile of gelatinous goo. It followed her out the door of the Vault where she left if for the carrion to feed off of. At times she was certain she heard a shrieking sound come from the pile of parts she animated, but soon the birds of fire island had dispatched the parts.

One bird in particular, dark and ominous like a word of death sprung up on the horizon. She could not help but smile as she eyed the great black wings of Mimus as he flew towards her.

Outstretching her arm to him she smiled and said, What news today my lovely...
