Edinburgh tomorrow, where LSODM will be on sale for a few hours, then whipped away again until the 29th, because we're mean...
So... spoilers. I hate spoilers. I hate them as a reader, and I hate them even more as a writer. I don't even like mild spoilers, such as "Just wait till you see what happens to Kenspeckle!" or "All I will say is... Mevolent."
I get it. I do. You have a piece of information that's bubbling inside you, and you want to share it but you know you can't, so you share a sliver, something you think is enough of a hint to be relevant, but not enough to ruin anything... and yet, even this is a spoiler, because it's alerting someone to something big that's coming up...
I happen to have readers who are very respectful to their fellow Skulduggery fans, a fact that still amazes everyone at Harper Collins. I know that's going to continue, but we all have to be vigilant about this stuff.
I write these books for you to read them, to discover them, to experience them, on a page by page basis. It sounds obvious, right? But spoilers wreck that.
Okay, I shall now stop talking about it. But if you see ANY shop selling LSODM before the 29th, tweet me and let me know.

*watches as the fire engulfs me laughing* Weirdo. This tickles. *sends a knife at her head* *feels the lightning throw me up and sends the shcok back at Edward* My name is mine to know only
*draws her bow sending a horde of arrows at Jayla* You're too kind

*laughs as a few arrows snap as soon as they near my skin, others hitting me but the wounds soon close* Pitiful.
Thanks, I'd like to see you stand with a broken bone, thanks stfu.
*jumps down onto her shoulders, twisting her head to the side in an attempt to break her neck*
*sighs and stabs Adra in the back* Get off. *throws her off* I do not like giving piggy back rides.
*pulls the knife out*
Not that deep. Hah.
Javier tried the same thing... It didn't go too well.
*rolls to her foot, throwing a dagger*
*dagger gets arm* Huh. Guess he is like me. *rips dagger from arm and sends back at Adra using the air to make it faster*
Charges at Jayla with dagger in Hand.
*gestures and makes Brave fly backwards*
*blocks it with a rock*
Oh no, ouch. *rolls her eyes, diving at Jayla, punching her face* For a true name, it is sad how you hide behind mortal weapons
*sighs and crushes Adra's fist* I hide? No. I just do not wish to...kill yet. I like to play with my food before eating, so to speak.
*bends her elbow, driving it into her face, her hand throbbing* That was low. *drives her knee into her stomach, pulling out a knife and sliding it between her ribs*
I also belong to a community of people who like Mass Effect and we don't have a name.
*glances at the knife preplexed* Painful. *takes knife out and heals herself and sends the same knife at Adra's eye* Now...to finish you off...*uses air to push Adra to the ground and smiles* Let's dig ou a grave!
*is digging a hole* who said something about digging?
*Gets up off the ground*
Ugh you are really pissing me of now.
*Shoots four arrows tipped with shadow daggers at Jayla*
Could you dig that hole a little bigger? I need to fit a body in it.
*blocks the knife with her arm*
Grave? I am not dying, thanks.
*rips the knife out, almost seeing through to the other side of her arm*
Nice throw. *winces*
ok, who are you? *continues digging*
*tall flames leap up in a circle around Jayla, burning unnaturally hot*
#ChaseForBook9
*smiles Thank you! *gets hit by one of the arrows* Hello incoming arrows. *sends a knife right at Brave* Now Adra...where shall I dig the grave?
Oh...hell.
the grave is ready person
*eyes widen at the flames* Put Adra in the grave and bury her
Why need a grave!
*hobbles backwards*
I am NOT dying
who is adra?
Wait. ALIVE?
The one hobbling!
*flames grow even hotter, and spread closer to the center where Jayla is*
#ChaseForBook9
*walks towards adra glowing blue with electricity* apparently you go in a grave
Brave a new part of my Mass Effect fanfiction is up and your character is featuring in it.
What?!?!?!? *stumbles back*
*glances up* Hell. I rather face Croatoan. *tries to seperate the flames*
i just follow a master. *throws lightning at adra*
*coffin appears* Put. Adra. In. coffin and then bury her
*gets hit with the lightning* The hell! JAYLA
*flames only grow taller, continuing to spread* ((By now Jayla should be feeling pretty close to a cookie in an oven.))
#ChaseForBook9
that coffin is boring *creates energy coffin, which is painful*
*hot sparks leap out of the fire and land on Edward's shoulder and in his hair, and begin to burn him*
#ChaseForBook9
*finally is screaming trying to get away* Oh...my...god...*sinks to knees* I feel roasted. *flies over the flames* Hot...really...hot.
*flames leap higher, so they continue to surround Jayla even as she flies*
#ChaseForBook9
*looks at the coffin* uh.. *unsheathes a sword, swiping at Edward*
I WILL RELEASE HER GOD DAMN IT! *releases Jayla*
hey *throws ice spike at adra* that was not nice.
*may be distant*
#ChaseForBook9
*Sends a shield of shadows up to block the knife but the knife slashes through it and cuts into stomach untill only the top of the hilt is visable*
*Stumbles back and crumbles to the ground*
whatt... kind of.... *gasps* Knife was that?...
((Edward's hair and clothes should be burning by now.))
#ChaseForBook9
*falls to ground screaming* I'm not my true name please...PLEASE...
(why am i burning)
*dodges the spike, leaping on her foot*
Missed!
*rolls backwards, pulling out her gun at firing a spray if bullets*
*sees flames* Oh,..
((I set you on fire. Scroll up- a few sparks hit you and caught.)) *fire doesn't let up*
#ChaseForBook9
Hey guys, I'm on my extremely slow iPod. . .
Battery's low.
Very msd.
My mum and stepdad are drunk, so ._.
#ChaseForBook9
*bullets melt at electric tornado heads nearer* i am just following the orders of... i dont know who?
*sees flames* shit...shit...*vanishes and ends up in lake gasping for air looking very very roasted, well done perhaps*
((Wow, I'm sorry, Mara. That doesn't sound fun.))
#ChaseForBook9
*freezes flames in a mini snowstorm*
*sess Veracruz* I dont like you *nods*
*blinks, throwing the gun aside* well shit. *grimaces*
Mars, I feel your pain. *hugs* *waves*
Um, sorry, stupid question: why is everyone trying to kill everyone again?
I DON'T KNOW DRAGONA
*stays in water* I think I was burnt...3rd degree?
dragona, i lost my memory and thinks jayla is my master who asked me to kill adra
*solidifies into human* *fire dies down all at once* Why, because I showed up to bail you guys out? *shrugs* Well, that's fine by me. I don't care if you don't like me.
Hey, Adra, you ok?
#ChaseForBook9
Peachy
You scare me ok SCARE me *goes near Veracruz*
*shrugs at Dragona* I don't really know what's going on. I just showed up and Jayla was trying to kill Adra, so I made her stop. Oh yeah, that reminds me- *turns to Jayla* now would be a good time for you to tell Edward to stop.
#ChaseForBook9
*vanishes*
If I scare you, why would you move closer to me?
#ChaseForBook9
That's gorgeous that is
*throws water at adra and then throws electricity*
*runs down from the treehouse* I feel horrible...*sees stomach wound* oh yeah!
I have to go now but I'll be back soon, I think.
For those who are following my story:
http://masseffectfanfiction.blogspot.co.uk
There is Part 8 up.
Dont touch me ok? Then I'll be fine
Hm... *speaks mostly to self* I could find her, but do I need to? *thinks* Nah, Adra looks like she can take care of herself.
#ChaseForBook9
*looks at Alexis' wound* Sorry, I can't heal. I'm really only good at the destruction thing.
Bye, Dragona!
#ChaseForBook9
*is electrocuted*
FOR SHIT'S SAKE, EDWARD.
*touches the ground as a large rock formation falls over Edward*
What do you want Veracruz?
master, help
Right...well if anyone can heal it'd help. *sits against tree* I'll survive for now I survived loads worse.
YOU HAVE NO MASTER YOU IDIOT!
*hits the ground as rock spikes raise up, shooting themselves at Ed*
Edward stand down. *vanishes again*
who is master *goes limp*
You know what? I'm just going to lie in bed and list reasons why I'm a horrible person. Maybe wonder why I'm here in the first place. All I do is cause people pain. Maybe tomorrow I'll lock myself in the school bathroom and cry again, because tomorrow will be the worst birthday I will ever have. Maybe stab my arms with my pen a few times, just for fun. I can't handle all this at fucking once. Maybe I won't eat tomorrow. I'm too fat anyway.
Sometimes, I wonder why I bother.
#ChaseForBook9
Nothing. That's actually sort of my issue. I've always been provided some sort of plot. Now I'm supposed to just do what I want, and you know what? Free will is kind of overrated. I mean, it's so boring! Like, what do I do? *small fire leaps up in hand, solidifies into a bottle of rum* *drinks a little less than half the bottle before stopping to breathe*
#ChaseForBook9
DAMN RIGHT BITCH.
YOU ARE NOT TO BURY ME ALIVE. EVER. AM I CLEAR?
Why dont you try to make friends Veracruz?
Hey, Mara. Not cool. You're probably gorgeous. And you're definitely a much better person than you give yourself credit for.
#ChaseForBook9
((Creepy squirrel...))
(([hugs Mara]))
#ChaseForBook9
*is unconcious*
Mara, my parents are divorced as well- and I know what you are going though and it really makes you feel worthless, right? It made me. I felt awful- but you aren't. You are gorgeous you just don't see it. And you're still young- you have. Yet to grow into yourself. I was a pretty chubby little sixth grader way back when but you'll get a growth spurt, grow taller. Eat a TON of food and get taller.
Don't take this to yourself
*glares* I was warned about you Veracruz
*shrugs* I've got some friends. That's good enough for me. I want to do stuff. Go on adventures and things. I'd go find Jack, but I'm not sure if I can do that here.
#ChaseForBook9
*blinks at Edward* Yay! *tosses her hand into the air, cradling the other*
mara, happy birthday for tomorrow
Hey Fabilous!
Really? Who warned you about me?
#ChaseForBook9
Romeo
But Niccolo didnt steal Romeo's name so how can Niccolo be Romeo?
(([hugs Mara again]))
((I really shouldn't be here...))
((Hi anyway, though.))
#ChaseForBook9
*grabs her crutch, getting to her feet* *limps slowly for the bar*
*rolls eyes* Ugh, that man was such an idiot. But he died, like, a couple hundred years ago. You're not that old. So we can't be talking about the same person. So who are you talking about? Wait, did you mean Niccolò?
#ChaseForBook9
Yes Niccolò *smiles* one of the few people...
Is Niccolo ok? *hugs Coco bear tighter to chest* owww...
One of the few people...?
#ChaseForBook9
Hello everyone!
#ChaseForBook9
Who actualy can make me smile *goes red* Eh he dont care
Hi Rhydian!
hi Rhydian. *sits on the steps, groans*
hello rhydian
[Hisses]
People always get that "Romeo, Romeo, wherefore art thou Romeo?" speech mixed up! It's so annoying! Juliet isn't looking for Romeo, she has no way of guessing he's out there! "Wherefore" actually means why. She's asking why he has to be Romeo, and a Montague, and going on about how she would love him even if he had another name, and then they wouldn't have to worry about the feud. And yeah. I don't remember the rest of the speech.
Also, you'd better ignore that whole rant there, because I'm really not in the mood for a debate. Goodbye.
...I think I need lunch.
[Waves to Rhydian]
#ChaseForBook9
Hi Adra!
Hi Ed!
Hi Alexis!
#ChaseForBook9
Hello . . .
I'm not sure how long I'll be staying, beacuse I have stuff to do like go to sleep. :P
Msd.
#ChaseForBookNine
Hi Fabi!
#ChaseForBook9
"Romeo Romeo wherefore art thou Romeo" translation "desperate desperate! I am very desperate! Are there any... Stalkers on my grounds?" :p
*smiles* I knew you'd' say something like that. He cares, trust me. But there are better ways to assist the world as a whole than making one person smile. He feels like he has to try and make up for everyone he killed, so he's been doing stuff. Anyway, what did he tell you about me?
#ChaseForBook9
FABIIIIIIII YOUR DED WAS AWESOME, AND I HAVEN'T TOLD YOU YET, SO I'M TELLING YOU NOW, AND YEAH. :)
#ChaseForBookNine
Has anyone noticed anything strange in the last 2 hours?
#ChaseForBook9
KK Star!
*digs around in her bag with one hand for her med kit, gritting her teeth*
Bye Fabi, hi Rhydian, and hi Star! Three people at once! Yeah!
#ChaseForBook9
I AM A GENIUS, BTW.
MY DOOR OFTEN BANGS OPEN AND CLOSED ALL NIGHT, BECAUSE IT DOESN'T CLOSE PROPERLY, AND IT IRRITATES EVERYONE TO DEATH, BUT THIS MORNING I FIXED IT!!!!
kinda
Well, I hung my hoodie on the end of it, and now when it bangs against the doorframe, the hoodie bangs instead of the door so it doesn't make any noise! RESULT!!! :)
#ChaseForBookNine
He said you werent to be trusted
Hello Veracruz. We haven't met. I'm Rhydian Saint. Nice to meet you!
#ChaseForBook9
*pulls out the med kit*
*curses*
DAMMIT TRIP
@Rhydian: Nope, but I haven't been here for the last two hours, sooo.
#ChaseForBookNine
So has anyone seen anything odd in the last 2 hours?
#ChaseForBook9
*stands up and enters bar*
Hm. Well, I bet he'd trust me with a lot of things, but I am pretty careless, and for someone like me, carelessness can result in a lot of collateral damage. So I can see him saying that. He's probably right, actually.
Hey, Rhydian! Cool meeting you, too.
#ChaseForBook9
Nope, haven't seen anything weird. I haven't been here for too long, though.
#ChaseForBook9
Right *looks at phone* it was definitely here
#ChaseForBook9
Eating lunch now, so I'm really not here. And if I weren't eating, I'd be complaining about something or other, so yeah.
@Star Thanks! [hugs]
@Rhydian Doctor Who. I finished the third season. Does thy count as strange?
Now I'm gone til I'm in a better mood.
#ChaseForBook9
O romeo romeo wherefore art thou romeo deny thy father and refuse thy name or if thou wilt not be but sworn my love and i'll no longer be a Capulet tis but thy name that is thy enemy thou art thyself though not a Montague what is montague? it is nor hand nor foot nor arm nor face belonging to a man of which we call a rose by any other name that would smell as sweet so romeo would were he not romeoe call'd retain that dear perfection that which he owes without that title romeo doffy thy name and for that name which is no part of thee take all myself
the giant speech by Juliet, by memory
*that
#ChaseForBook9
No, I was too busy dying. *sighs out*
FUCK
Not really Fabi
#ChaseForBook9
*walks up to adra*
Well good glad Niccolo is right
Dying? How? What happened?
#ChaseForBook9
Hi Edward. *is busy building a splint for her hand and foot*
Brb
#ChaseForBook9
He's usually right. Except when he's being an idiot.
#ChaseForBook9
what happened to me, the last thing i remember was being hit by a troll and then i wake up buried under sharp rocks. what happened to you?
You electrocuted me and tried to bury me alive.
I have a phobia of that, you eejit
NICCOLO CROATOAN IS NOT AN IDIOT! HE IS A GOD DAMN SCHOLAR *smiles sweetly*
Back
#ChaseForBook9
i did what? why didnt anybody stop me?
Jst a little protective eh?
Hi Rhyd.
Well I was too busy not dying
Back.
(Hey Ari did my reply for the collab with Niccolo from a few days ago actually send? The iPod was on an anti-Zaf rage so a few things she sent thart day didnt send)
*looks at phone* where could it be?
#ChaseForBook9
Where could what be?
*pours alcohol over her arm*
When he's being all nerdy and scholar-y- that's when he's almost always right. But you have to admit he is an idiot sometimes. Like right now, for example. He is currently trying to build 10 wells, and keep all of his names at bay- they're making even more of a fuss than usual, I would guess- and he's still searching Ari's mind for any sign of activity, and he hasn't slept or eaten at all. Which admittedly isn't unusual for him, but right now it's really not a good mix.
#ChaseForBook9
Two hours ago The Institute got an energy signal. And it wad coming from Blogland. Now I'm looking for it
#ChaseForBook9
If you see him tell him he needs to make a tempary link to someone sane! Alexis knows how to do them she did it before...
Temparay links are easy! I did one with Brave...*shrugs* Easy.
Oh. Wow. Okay. I don't know what to say, Rhydian?
*winces, beginning to wrap up her arm*
Just a reminder, for those who follow my story a new part is up. I think it's the third to last so yeah.

ZAFFY AND I MUST GO EAT WE BE BACK
i have an energy scanner that would have recorded at the ice fortress but *looks at whats left of ice fortress* who blew it up?
Well...it looked like a Remnant.
#ChaseForBook9
Star, new part of my story is up in case you didn't see and you haven't read this one.
A remnant?
Oh hell.
*words on wrapping her side up* That's just what we need.
The energy trace looked like a Remnant
#ChaseForBook9
He won't. Not while Ari is so vulnerable. I bet if he could he would have already broken his link with her, but he can't. *shrugs* He'll deal.
#ChaseForBook9
adra, did you blow up my fortress?
You mean Drew?
*looks shifting around* *laughs at Edward*
So... To track a remnant you'll need a soul catcher, an x-ray machine and a magnifying glass. Any questions?
*lighyning curls round arm* i dont remember the last few days at all and i am not in the mood to guess, now did you?
Uh, why the last two?
As if you scare me. But no.
@Dragona: Oh, okay. I'll read it when I've got a video for this. :)
Or, if the wifi gets turned off whilst I'm doing it, tomorrow. -_-
#ChaseForBookNine
*looks at Dragona *
#ChaseForBook9
i will not attack you adra, however. *moves near drink storage*
Well the x-ray will show a giant black blob inside them and the magnifying glass is to check for black veins.
May suddenly disappear. Thought I'd warn you all.
#ChaseForBook9
I thought remnants were energy.
Edward- back off. *shakily gets to her feet, raising her gun* Piss off
*gets a text* never mind everyone! The Institute has got it sorted out. They'll deal with it
#ChaseForBook9
Remnants are energy but they have a physical form.
Oh good Rhyd?
I really feel like being someone else right now....
Hi?
#ChaseForBook9
*drains rest of bottle of rum* Bbbboooooorrrreeeeeeeedddddd... *sighs*
#ChaseForBook9
Gtg now :( Bye!
#ChaseForBook9
Hey, Fabi.

Please don't get drunk Vera
Bye, Rhy.
#ChaseForBook9
