[QUOTE="talien, post: 6033884, member: 3285"] [b]Cross My Heart: Part 3 – Well…[/b] Jamie ran from a gang of children. They seemed intent on doing him harm, shouting and threatening him as they give chase. On and on the children chased Jamie, through yards and alleys, sometimes separating to prevent him from veering left or right, or escaping into the company of adults. They were herding him. The group of kids chased Jamie to Grigsby’s Field, where Kerwin, Davey Nooren, and Nick Selsby awaited. Kerwin Barclay was twelve years old, with grungy blond hair, watery blue eyes, and an extremely pale complexion. His lips turned up slightly on the corners, giving him a hateful expression most of the time. His skin had a curious, chalk-like coloration that looked clammy and greasy Davey Nooren was the vice-president of the Survivors and Kerwin’s right-hand man. He was a razor-thin lad, exceedingly tall for his age. He had long black hair and braces. Nick Selsby was the club enforcer. He was bulky, stout, and rude. He already showed a strong growth of facial hair amid his unsightly pimples. The three boys were engaged in a morbid game of tying up cats and tossing them into an old well. Jamie stood breathless in front of the three boys, the other children encircling him from behind. "You broken your vow of secrecy, Jamie, by telling adults about the Survivors," said Kerwin. "But—" "Shut up! Jamie has hurt the club by telling its secrets and must pay the penalty." "No! How did you know?" asked Jamie. Smiling like a skeleton, Kerwin Barclay said that “you are no longer part of us, no longer like us. I know.” When Kerwin and Davey turned to consult on the punishment, Jamie Cornwell made a break for it. Nick immediately caught him and punched him hard in the stomach. A baleful glare sprang into Kerwin’s eyes, and he yelled for Jamie to be thrown into the well. “If he wants to act like a pussy cat, we shall have to treat him like a pussy cat!” he sneered. Davey and Nick lifted Jamie bodily, dangling him by his ankles over the well. "Wait." Kerwin tilted his head, listening to some unheard voice. In his vision Jim-Bean thought for a brief second Kerwin was looking at him. "The Master has another purpose in mind. Come on, we're taking him to Grimsdyke Hill." [/QUOTE]
