Set Me On Fire (2b)
Date: 2011-12-08 05:32 pm (UTC)Finally the snake disengaged, and returned to it’s coil, sensing the heat of the other body in the room and figuring it wasn’t alone. Realizing he was in danger, Vulpes then swooped down and lopped the coil in half, catching the head of the snake, and throwing it into the fire.
“Why didn’t you do that in the first place?” Mrs. Hernandez asked, unable to fear this stranger, her life now forfeit.
Vulpes said nothing in response, instead he leaned down and caressed the lower part of her jaw with his fingers. She was beautiful to him in this moment. She trembled, savoring her soon to be death with a clarity of vision that was missing from the eyes of most people. For a moment she seemed to him sinless, a perfect beautiful widow and mother, encased in glass for him to watch as she twisted and finally faded from life.
“Maybe you can suck it out,” She begged. “I saw that in a hollow tape once. This hero sucked the poison out of the heroin's snake bite. I don’t have to die.”
“Your death is certain,” Vulpes responded with a gentleness to his voice that only barely masked his excitement. “It is best if you just accept what is going to happen to you. Think of how you want Julia to see you face this.”
Mrs. Hernandez started to weep miserably at the mention of her daughter. She seemed even more brilliant to Vulpes now, weeping for the loss her child would now feel at her orphanage. He petted her hair, watching her as she begged, pleaded, made a million deals with God. He stayed with her here, for the better part of an hour, while her daughter was out hanging with her friends, trying to get a courier job. Alone, he savored as she finally broke, gave up and returned to that dull quite calm that had initially drawn him to her. It was at this moment that she did something unexpected.
“There is a gun in my room, in a safe,” she said, unwilling to move from the spot where the extent of her lifetime was determined, “Please get it for me.”

She clenched the cold black metal to her chest, her hair hiding her face from him like a curtain preventing the audience from seeing the actors before the performance.
“Please leave me to this,” Mrs. Hernandez begged. “All I ask is that you tell Julia, and keep her from coming to see my body. Let someone else in town clean me up. I want her to remember me as I was.”
“That seems like a promise I can keep,” Vulpes said with a dark smile, and turned to grab his pack and leave the house. On his way out he tripped the old world lock on the front and back door, knowing that most wastelands lacked the key to their own homes, and it took most people the better part of a day to break the doors in after they were rendered useless.
Heading towards the center of town to meet up with his contact and exchange some documents, Vulpes found himself cheery, a terrible idea springing to him as he kicked the dust from the road with his feet. After he got the coded spy reports from his contact he would have to cross over into NCR territory, and there was no reason to do it alone now. He would wait till he was just far enough into the country that Julia would not have rations enough to go back, and then tell her the fate of her mother. This would be the moment he’d spring on her, breaking her spirit further as he informed her of her fate as a slave in Caesar’s Legion. After all, she had caught his eye enough, their was no reason not to enjoy the fruits of this time he had spent in profligate lands.
