Reid woke up to see bright mall lights. JJ was running her fingers through his hair and stroking his cheek gently. Morgan had his hand holding Reid's head off the ground. "Spence," JJ whispered as her mascara stained cheeks came into focus. "What, what happened?" he whispered as he felt his face. It was bloody. "Look Reid don't move the paramedics are on their way, they've got Robert cornered." Reid looked to the corner parallel to him to see the man, Robert Daniels crying and panicking. The man had six guns of six officers pointed at him. "Don't shoot," Reid whispered, struggling to keep his eyes open. "What?" Morgan asked as Reid heard a loud gunshot. "No, no," Reid said moving JJs hand off of his face. "What the hell was that!" Reid yelled to the officers moving towards the man, who was bleeding heavily from his shoulder. Reid attempted to apply pressure to the wound. "Hey you can't-" an officer said trying to move Reid off the man. "Leave him alone." JJ said quietly to the officer. "Hey, hey stay with me." Reid said quietly to the man as tears streamed down his face. The man began to cry as he placed his hand on Reid's bloody face. "I'm so sorry, I'm so, I'm, so," the man stuttered. "Look Robert don't move, you're loosing too much blood." Reid said as the man began to shut his eyes. "Do you think I'll see them again? Will, they like me?" the man said quietly. Reid sniffled and nodded his head. The man smiled softly as he shut his eyes. Reid watched as the man took his last breath. Reid felt tears filling in his eyes as he began to cry. "Hey Reid," Morgan said coming to take Reid away from the man. Reid hugged Morgan tightly as he cried on his shoulder. "Look, Reid the paramedics are here. You blacked out. You're gonna need stitches, okay?" Reid let go and nodded his head as JJ grabbed his hand. Reid looked at his shoes and walked with her. "Spence." JJ said softly to him as she lifted his head up and held his cheeks. "We're safe." Reid tried to smile as he nodded his head. JJ kissed his cheek and gave him a gentle hug. "The team is on their way. You and I both know we're ready to leave." JJ said laughing, patting Reid gently on the back. Reid tried his best to grin, and hold back the tears.

8 73Toothpick
“Hello! My humble audience! I, the Bard of the North, am going to tell you a tale. Nothing new, nothing old. A story of a hero, some may say, others a poor boy who was hated by the world.” The storyteller paused as he waited, right timing was everything when telling a story. Pacing… Too slow and the audience became bored then left without tossing even the smallest of coins. If he spoke too fast and rushed the story. It would leave the audience confused and having no reason to be impressed. So like any good storyteller, the Bard has to do a balancing act of sorts. Not too slow, not too fast. Just perfectly in the middle. “In a shattered country in the south, a novice princeling has the ambition to mend a torn tapestry that is his birthplace. Struggling to fend off those who would usurp the throne in an unending civil war spanning centuries. A mercenary that left only death in his wake, unable to stave off the monotony and peace of life. He looks back at the path laden with bodies, wondering if it was all worth it. Wandering souls summoned by a madman, travel away from a wasteland in a foreign land, the first alone, the others as companions. A deity, ancient in her years, waiting to be freed from a duty she no longer enjoys. For all these people and their stories, none are the hero of this tale. No, the hero is not grand, not wise, not ready.. he was punished for nothing of his doing, who was an outcast that was unloved by many, including his father.” This was always the big reveal novices use to jump off into their story. He did not start here, instead, like any good fishermen, he set the bait and waited until the fish bit before pulling. As he saw the audience's eyes focus, he then started the backstory. The harness, that stopped the listeners from having metaphorical whiplash. The foreshadowing. “But that is not where the story starts. No, not even the hero's birth. Where the story begins, is the boredom of the deity, a deity many know of. She who hunts for the impossible, the guide for those who have lost the path, the Huntress of Mallon--” A small pause, a short breath. “--All old names for a single powerful being that has roamed the grounds of this continent longer than any line of kings or queens, lords or ladies. A being of worship for many an individual…” One last breath. And he began singing the first verse.
