Rules: go to page 7 of your WIP, go down to the 7th line, copy the next 7 sentences, then tag 7 people to do the same.
I was tagged by several people at least 2 weeks ago – I don’t even remember who-all tagged me. @iamanartichoke, I think, and @loxxxlay, maybe @foundlingmother or @illwynd…? I don’t want to go that far back in my activity feed. Anyway, I was waiting until I actually had 7 pages of the new chapter of Abyss. I hope I’ll actually be able to post the chapter before too long…
I did not have long to ponder the
odds, because the guards leading me had come to a halt before a cylindrical
chamber, walled in glass with metal floor and ceiling, suspended by metal arms
that gripped its sides. The one-eyed
man, Director Fury, stood on the walkway beside it, watching me intently. The guard at the head of one of the columns
flanking me pressed a button beside the door to the glass cylinder and it slid
open. I briefly considered what would
happen if I did not walk through the door of my own volition; these eight
Midgardians, with all their armor and weaponry and specialized training, could
not physically force me—and from Fury’s piercing gaze, at once calculating and
warning, I gathered that he knew. Good
thing I was here of my own volition, then.
I stepped into the cell, then turned and watched the door slide closed
again.
Fury’s boots clanged like battle drums on the
metal slats of the suspended walkway as he paced over to a podium topped with
one of Midgard’s ever-present screens.
I think I’m just going to tag back whoever tagged me because it’s been long enough that I’m sure y’all have new stuff now. Who else? @incredifishface, @seidrade, @wouldyouknowmore
