Cartright sat in his chair. He was happy the extra Guardians had agreed to help patrol the residence halls while the arrows laid their trap. He was too old to get involved in the ground anymore, not that he had ever enjoyed it in the first place. That was the Arrows domain. The newest ones he had met were just as impatient as the others, but no less deadly. He had heard about Baltimore, and a little about Houston through the grapevine. He doubted if Baltimore would recover in his lifetime. They still had force mages scrubbing the spirit world of the residual radiation.
There was a knock at the door. Cartright barely had time to stand up when HE burst the door and walked in. Cartright immediately began casting a portal spell to get the hell out of there. Any entrance using this method meant problems. His portal fizzled with the wave of a hand.
"You should know beter than that Peter. SIT. DOWN. NOW." Peter attempted to cast it again, and once again with the wave of his hand, the man caused to spell to fizzle. "I asked nicely once." He waved his hand as two more men armed with heavy pistols entered the room, one of them shooting Cartright in the stomach. Cartright doubled over in pain.
The man went over to Cartright's desk, and poured some of his Cognac into a glass. "Would you like some Peter? I hear its the best available" the man said with a sneer as he took a sip.
"What" cough cough "What do you want E.." the man raced over and backhanded Cartright as hard as he could across the mouth before he could get the name out "Shhhhh you stupid bastard. The walls have ears you know."
The man sat down across from Cartright. "You should have paid attention last time I requested help from you. Now, instead of working together to rid this planet of all its witches and demons, I will have to do it myself.
'And the fire said to me... Nix, Nix, you are my instrument. From now on you shall be known...as...the Puritan.' the man said mockingly.
"My little distraction served me well, although I do hope my men can take out at least one of those annoying Arrows" he said setting his glass on the table next to him.
"I wanted you to be the first to see what I can, and will, do to you and every other worthless pentacle witch." He pulled out a vial and sprayed Cartright with it.
"Wait for it...the suspense is killing me" the man jeered. Within seconds, Peter began to convulse and shake as blood began coming out of his mouth and eyes. His skin began to bubble as vomit poured out of his mouth. Screaming in pain, it continued for what seemed to be an eternity. The blisters on his body began to burst and almost as soon as it started Peter was dead. Slowly but surely afterwords, he was becoming a liquid stain on the carpet. In minutes, nothing would be left but a pool of mucus and filth.
The man smiled..."Perfect"
