The Storm Pt2

[Dace59 0]

-BUZZ! BUZZ!-

 

Rolling over with a grunt from his bed, Dace slams the alarm clock on his head side table, trying to crush the annoying thing under his fist. Finally finding the sleep function by effect of ripping the power lead out of the back, Dace cracks his now relaxed back slowly, before cracking his shoulder blades.

 

Picking up the phone from table, flicking the flap down and dialling in a number as he rubs sleep from his eyes.

 

-RING RING!-

 

-CLICK!-

 

“Hello, Dado’s Tattoo Parlour?”

 

“Yes, who’s speaking…?”

 

“Dace Night, I have an appointment for this afternoon, I’m just calling to check everything is all set for then.”

 

“Yes it is Mister Night.”

 

“Good, thank you. I’ll be down later this afternoon. Good bye.”

 

“Thank you, good bye.”

 

-CLICK!-

 

Rolling over in the bed next to him and shifting the mass of her purple hair out of the way, Kayin wraps her arms around Dace’s body and pulls him back down to the bed.

 

“Hmmm, what was that Dacey?”

 

“Just checking about my tattoo and all later this afternoon babe.”

 

“That’s later this afternoon right?”

 

“Yes, why do you ask?”

 

Wriggling her way through the covers and wrapping her limbs around Dace’s body, she whispers into his ears.

 

“Good, because with all the stress you’re going do be dealing with, what with the pay per view and all… you need lots of relaxation to help you out Dacey.”

 

-FADE-

 

-CLING CLING-

 

The door top bell jangles as Dace passes through the door, long leather trench coat and dark shades even in the Florida weather. Behind the desk, a big hairy and heavily tattooed man looks up from a magazine he’s reading.

 

“Mr Night, I’m here for my three thirty.”

 

“Ah yes, sign here buddy. Are you aware of the details and such?” The man asks as he slides a clip sheet over the counter.

 

“Yes, even though it’s my first time.” Dace answers slowly as he sings the form and removes his shades.

 

“But not or other sort of things I see. Well, it’s round the back buddy.”

 

Stepping into the back and shedding his trench coat as he walks to the back, Dace leaps into the chair as he pulls open his shirt, exposing his pale skin as hum of the tattoo needle kicks into life.

 

“Now, you sure you still want all this buddy. It’s some pretty heavy stuff you’re getting done. Don’t want to have you regretting it now. Almost like you’re getting ready for war.”

 

Flashing his scar faced grin, Dace nods and rolls onto his back, pushing up his left shoulder.

 

“War of a kind. I know what I’m getting into. So let’s get on with this.”

 

-FADE-

 

The hum dies away as the tattooist steps back and swabs away the last of the blood from Dace’s arm.

 

“Well there you go. There for life now.”

 

From the right side of his neck, all the way down his right arm to his fingers, runs a twisting pattern of interconnecting spikes, which end at points on his fingers. The trails for a large bundle over his fist and elbow. On his back the outline of a howling wolf’s head against a moon.

 

“Now I’m almost ready. There’s a storm coming you know, I’d get nailed down, it isn’t going to be pretty.”

 

-FADE-

 

Out side of Dado’s the only since of Dace’s new tattoos are the pattern that can bee seen on his fist as he strides back towards his truck.

 

-RING RING!-

 

Flicking his cell phone from his pocket, Horrorcore brings it to his ear.

 

“The gears all ready and past customs?…. Good, I’ll be around to pick up the truck and the stuff tomorrow…. Yes I know what I’m getting ready for.”

 

-CLICK!-

 

-FADE-

There's a storm coming...and you can bet your ass I'm going to be nailing myself down.

 

Nice promo, Dace. I love the 'there's a storm coming' saying. Is there going to be a part three? (Y)

[Dace59 0]

There will be a part 3.

 

And a 4, but that will be on the G4 show itself.

Dace, walking painting of death. I like it. I fear for Bastion and Craven. Their collective ass is HEAVILY TROD UPON GRASS!

 

Or, uh, lightninged grass, with the storm and all. Very cool to get a series of promos from a guy who hasn't done a ton of promos in the past. Dace is really stepping into the spotlight.

[Guest Suicide King]

That is a nice tattoo. I shall have to have Craven rip it from your bleeding back and hang it on my wall.

That's a mad tattoo. Still don't beat Crow's huge tattoo on his upper back.
