In Prison once again

Jack awoke to find himself surrounded by Cleavers; their sickles strapped to their backs and a dagger in each hand. He looked up into their colourless eyes and knew that if he tried to escape they wouldn’t hesitate in killing him on the spot. As he sat up the Cleavers parted and the Skeleton Detective walked towards him. “Personally, I have no idea why I should even bother interviewing you, I know exactly why you where following me, so just nod if I get it right.”

“You where trying to capture Valkyrie so you could hold her hostage, yes?”

Jack nodded.

“When I came to retrieve her you where going to kill her and me at the same time, yes?”

Again Jack nodded.

“And you want to kill me because I shot your parents?”

This time instead of nodding Jack swung a punch that connected with Skulduggery’s skull. Instantly the Cleavers pounced on Jack battering him with the ends of their sickles. Twisting his neck the Detective stood up and said, “I’ll take that as a yes then.”
