The not so well dressed man was more unhinged. The suit was just tatters now, his body was a mishappen mass of skin, bone, and what appeared to be fragments of metal chain. He stood amongst his chain gang lovingly carressing one of them before stepping forward. I could also see what appeared to be smoke eminating from him. Something was definately off with the not so well dressed man. Hanlon seemed bored, Nidget terrified, me I had a splitting headache and I was tired so it was a great day for everything Lorentino.
"YOU ARE A FOOL LORENTINO!" His voice was booming.
"Inside voices please I got a head ache." A chain wrapped around my throat and silenced me, it was kind of a crushing burning pain, at least it distracted from my head ache.
"You will speak when allowed to speak mortal." The not so well dressed man at least used a quieter voice this time.
"Chaos is this really necessary?" Hanlon again seemed more perturbed than anything.
"Oh so you do know who I am Hanlon? Is that why you don't want to deal with me?"
"You have killed some of my people, you have stolen my weapons, and you expect me to want to deal with you?"
"I expect you to be a business man you twerp, I AM A GOD!" Now I don't know what Hanlon is but I figured this was probably not the best way of securing his help. It was interesting that we were dealing with what appeared to be the god of Chaos? Why would there even be such a thing? And why didn't he love me? I MEAN I CAUSE CHAOS EVERYWHERE I GO!
"Yes I see your godhood is readily apparent in your minions and actions. I mean what God can't fail to take over a country while using a scattered force of fools and has to demand weapons to equip his army?" Chaos charged forward and smacked Hanlon, who did not flinch, he did not even register the blow, I could almost feel the shockwave of power the god tried to unleash, but it faltered, Hanlon for whatever he was, was not moved by the power of a god. And that terrified me.
"What are you?"
"Something you would have been better off ignoring." And then all kind of shit broke loose like a crazy damn of crazy. I'll tell you tommorrow, my throat aches from the memory of that chain around it.
