RH & BW Final Issue! Thanks for reading folks! :)

Riding Hood & Bad Wolf - Issue #9 "Red"

 

In the past...

The boy found out his sister was taken away from the orphanage by a family, the other girls he snuck out and spoke to said it was a nice one. But he felt alone without her, the people just kept being bad, no heroes came to save him. Something inside the boy faded, his empathy. However, something inside him sparked, something that made him keep going. As the boy grew up, he learned how to survive in the unforgiving world and made his first ever friend but, he never knew what happened to his sister...

*The burial of course was for Trevor Greystone, not the Riding Hood the world knew him as. He'd hid in the background watching from afar, listening with his canine ears. BW had already mourned for his friend he seen no point in funerals, he knew there was no body in that grave. He was told to leave RH alone after his death, he didn't want to face the consequences if he chose not to, he didn't want his friends death to be in vain. Despite his primal side BW still felt wrong about not burying RH. He was only watching the grave for one reason, a woman would be there - the one he was promised to look after, RH's sister which he never discussed. Much to BW's concern he never knew anything about RH's past. RH thought they worked better together that way, so that's the way they worked. RH still sacrificed himself for his sister though, he'd made BW promise to care for her. So he would.*

 

Bad Wolf: "I'll care for her, RH."

 

*BW waited in the cold for hours, the rain had soaked his fur making him damp but he didn't care. He only cared for RH's sister now. He studied the faces of those who visited the grave, none looking remotely like the girl he'd seen. BW huffed turning slightly until something caught his eye, a red hooded figure approach the grave. She pulled down her hood revealing thick brown hair that flowed down to her lower back, she stood at the grave stone with her arms crossed. BW emerges out from hiding and cautiously approaches the woman who turns her head slightly hearing him.*

 

Bad Wolf: "Excuse me, Miss Greystone?"

 

Woman: "Please Wolfie, call me Red."

*The figure stumbles out from the swirling rift and drops to his hands and knees tearing off his mask, he retches spewing on the floor groaning. A man chuckles stepping out from the portal trailing something slowly behind him straining with effort, a bodybag. The rift collapses on itself closing abruptly as the man drops the bodybag which slaps off the concrete.*

 

Man #1: "Oops!"

 

Man #2: "Be careful or I'll fry you. We don't want him having brain damage if this guy can revive him."

 

Man #1: "Think his powers actually work?"

 

Man #2: "I hope not, Riding Hood blackmailed us. But, the boss wants him on the team."

 

*The man spits standing up and wipes his lips grabbing one end of the bodybag, the other man lifts up the other end and the two carry it up to a house. One of the men stops outside the large door and struggles knocking on it.*

 

Man #1: "Uh, knock knock. Is Dr. Afterlife in?"
