[QUOTE="talien, post: 6032108, member: 3285"] [b]Cross My Heart and Hope to Die: Part 1 – Sticks & Stones[/b] CAMSIDE, ENGLAND—The agents made their way to the second set of GPS coordinates. Camside was a small farming community, quiet and picturesque with its flocks of sheep, babbling streams, and quaint limestone cottages. Zeroing in on Cornwell's residence was made more difficult by the swirling fog that had engulfed the town. The Cornwell home was located on Queen Street in Camside. It was a modest two-story home flanked by tall hedgerows. Archive cocked his head. "You hear that?" "What?" asked Jim-Bean. "Laughing," said Archive. "Kids, I think." "Kids do live in towns," said Hammer. Archive started to speak but he was cut off by the large crack of rock on skull. He fell forward, clutching the back of his head. Hammer's pistols were out. "Are you okay?" Archive removed his hand from the back of his head. It was covered in blood. Jim-Bean spun, trying to identify the targets in the fog. "That'd be a no." "You've been marked!" a child's voice cried out. "You cannot escape retribution!" cried another. The rocks became a hailstorm of sticks, stones, and bottles. Archive put one hand out and chanted. "This should help." The children, twenty of them, were limed in glowing flames. It didn't stop the attack. Hammer took aim. "What the hell are you doing?" asked Jim-Bean. The memory of his own children, a world away, was still fresh in his mind. "Those are kids!" "They're not kids," Hammer squinted down the sight of his Glock. "They're possessed by Eihort." A single shot rang out. One of the sparkling forms fell. The children disappear into the fog, their cackling laughter hanging in the damp night air. Hammer turned his back. "Let's go. We need to find Jamie." Archive looked between Hammer and Jim-Bean, who was still staring at the small, fallen form dimming in the thinning fog. He followed Hammer through the open door into the Cornwell house. Jim-Bean stared for a long time before he slowly turned to follow. [/QUOTE]
