kristensk | More SK Drabbles

Project Updates:

Got through two more short fics. This time, starting with

ks_claw's request for something fun with Dr. Viper, Callie and some action. I hope this fits the bill as I was a little stumped on this one for a while.

Insulted

Sharp, blinding pain lanced through Dr. Viper’s head. Growling, he lashed out wildly with his tail. He met empty air. Then… There! The powerful appendage caught something solid, flung it away.

Assured of a moment’s reprieve, the mutated scientist scrubbed at his eyes. Blasted hairspray.

A second stab of pain erupted from his temple.

Snarling, Viper recoiled. He had forgotten. High heeled shoes tended to come in pairs.

He didn’t have time to think on it further.

Again, the shoe’s vicious heel drove into his head. Then, his side. The assault was relentless, furious.

Finally, Dr. Viper opted for retreat, cursing his luck.

The next time he tried to kidnap Callie Briggs he would remember not to insult her glasses.

But, they did look geeky.

Thanks to

mbimomma for her help with the punchline.

------------------------------------

And then, this idea latched onto me, and I did something with

a_chan007's second suggestion for something involving the Red Lynx and Dr. Sinian. I blame this entirely on re-reading the first two volumes of the Inuyasha manga night before last.

Lingering

Dr. Sinian sighed in relief as she watched the remains of the Red Lynx’ plane burn. Thank goodness she had obtained permission to retrieve and destroy the wreckage before it was too late.

The retrieval had only confirmed her fears. Lynx’ plane, wings clipped by the SWAT Kats’ missiles, was otherwise intact. Just as it had been when it was dredged from the ocean floor the first time.

It was proof that Lynx’ spirit wasn’t at rest. Not even after his defeat at the hands of a second Manx. He had been weakened, not destroyed. But, if her findings were correct, the plane was the focus of his power. With it gone, Lynx too would fade into the ether.

Unless he had managed to imbue something else with the hatred that fueled his wandering spirit.

How she wished the Enforcers had agreed to destroy the remnants of the Blue Manx.

And, there! Now, I'm all done with the fics that were happily within my comfort zone. Time to tackle the Full Metal Alchemist and Kenshin snippets.
