《The Bartender at the End of the Universe》Ch 125: Caught up in a Chick's Baggage

"You're just afraid of someone who actually speaks their mind!" Og'drimun snarled.
Trizel lowered his gaze to look the demon in the eyes. The giant's eyes were brimming with fury as he clenched his fists at his side. "Hah! Not even a flea would be afraid of you." he countered. "Small, weak, and stupid. A terrible combination for anyone dumb enough to consider you an ally of theirs."
"Wwwwhhhyyy ddddooooonnnn'ttt yyyooouuu tttwwwwoooo cccaaalllmmm ddoooowwwnnn aaaattt llleeeaaasssttt fffooorrr nnnooowwww?" Bakade suggested.
"I'm perfectly calm!" Og'drimun shouted. "Calm as the calmest calm guy over here. It's this big buffoon that's all fired up and throwing insults."
CRACK!
Without hesitation, Trizel threw another punch right at Og'drimun. They were closer to each other than last time, so there was no time for Og'drimun to even realize he was about to be hit, let alone try and dodge it. So, the giant fist found it's mark, and sent Og'drimun rocketing down the hallway ahead of them.
"He's no speed bag, so there's not much fo a point in treating him like one there fella!" Pockets exclaimed.
"I'd keep my neck away from that noose if I were you two," Sentenza warned as he puffed on the cigarillo in his mouth. "Let it sort itself out on its own."
"Bbbbuuutttt..." muttered Bakade.
THUMP. SSSKKKKRRR.
THUMP. SSSKKKKRRR.
Thudding and scraping noises were coming down the hallway from further ahead. Then, in a flash, Nugget was running towards them with Og'drimun held limply in her beak. The chicken tossed the small beast over towards Bakade as she leaped into the air.
Pockets had an amused expression on her face, while Sentenza, Bakade, and Trizel all just looked confused. Nugget stopped as she made it past their group and turned her head back to them. "Baw..."
She was interrupted by a high-pitched howl that almost seemed to shake the very walls. The amalgamation of flesh was still pulling its way down the hallway after the small chicken, but now the others were in its path as well.

The Featherlight Transmission
In the ancient desert metropolis of Wellspring City, magic is dead, and technology reigns supreme. Baulric Featherlight, one of thousands of street mages for hire, is summoned by the City Watch to assist with a particularly grisly murder - the deed was done by a rogue mage, and the fanatical Dynamic Brotherhood will have every arcanist in the city pay for it. The killer continues carving a line of death throughout all twenty sectors of the city, and anti-magic sentiment begins to rise. Will Featherlight's singular skills be enough to hunt down this elusive killer? Or will fear and old hatreds finally tear Wellspring City apart? (Cover art by the inestimable UncertaintyCrossing.

I post at least once a week. I cannot promise you a story you enjoy reading, but I can promise you a story I enjoy writing. Thank you. ------------------------------------------ The sword is greater than a simple weapon; an answer to life's questions. An extension of thine master's hand, guided by wrist. Care it not whether guilty or innocent blood shed, for be it a mere edge, a weapon. For blade that forgets or refuses to cut be shameful, meaningless, disgraceful. Nay, be it considered a tool at all? What dost the weapon do when the steel hath no guide, that the master hath mingled far? Doth it Stay? Perhaps quiver at possibility, the loss of reason for existence? Or does it go forth into the unknown, guided by merely the wind and the edge? A wandering sword, a phantom blade- A lone Samurai. ------------------------ Credit to Nicklas Gustaffson for the image.
