Call me Spectre.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cIs that a first or last\nname?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cNeither.\u201d He shot me a level\nlook. \u201cAnd I expect you know it.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Instead of answering, I\nlooked back out the window. I did it in time to see a sign, green and white,\nmarked with the upcoming cities. \u201cWhere are we going?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI\u2019d rather not tell you\nthat,\u201d he said softly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A headache started to pulse\nbehind my eyes and I pinched the bridge of my nose.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWhen are you going to let me\ncall my brother?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI have a secure sat phone at\nour target destination. I\u2019ll call him from there and you can speak to him\nbriefly.\u201d He shot me a narrow look before returning his attention back to the\nroad. \u201cYou\u2019re not allowed to give him any information about where we are. I\u2019ll\nend the call the second you try.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cPerhaps you should try\ncouching that in some other terms, Casper,\u201d I said sharply. \u201cI don\u2019t respond to\n<em>not allowed<\/em> very well.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He was quiet for a long, long\nmoment, so long that I shifted in my seat to give him a wary look. He had a\npuzzled frown on his face and after a few seconds, he asked, \u201cWhy did you call\nme Casper?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cSpectre\u2026ghost.\u201d I waved at\nhim.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m not following.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I blinked. \u201cAre you serious?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWhy wouldn\u2019t I be? What does\nSpectre, or ghost, have to do with the name <em>Casper<\/em>?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWere you dropped onto this\nplanet by aliens?\u201d I asked. \u201cOr have you never seen cartoons before?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>My first comment had teased\nthe start of a smile from him, but by the time I finished talking, the smile\nhad faded. And unless I was mistaken, there was a faint but unmistakable\ntension now, in the strong line of his lean shoulders, in the forearms, left\nbare by the rolled-up sleeves of a plain denim workshirt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cMy childhood didn\u2019t allow\nmuch time to indulge in cartoons, I\u2019m afraid,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There were entire untold\nstories there, delivered in those simple words, in his bland, emotionless\nvoice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But for some reason, they\nleft a strange ache in my chest. <em>No, <\/em>I told myself. <em>He can\u2019t make\nthings in your chest ache, damn it.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThat\u2019s kind of sad. Explains\na lot, though.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I directed my attention back\nto the front window and stared at the filthy back doors of a semitruck.\nSomebody had scrawled a giant smiley face through the dirt. Casually, I looked\nat the license plate and committed it to memory, then noted the time on the\nclock. It wasn\u2019t much of a reference point but if I could get enough licenses\nstored in my memory, and a rough idea of the time, I\u2019d have something to give\nmy brother. I didn\u2019t know how I\u2019d pass the information on, but I\u2019d worry about\nthat later. Right now, I needed to focus on creating a moving path of\nbreadcrumbs across the middle of America.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWhat does it explain?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>His voice distracted me.\nIrritated, I looked away from the green Hyundai I\u2019d picked out even as I\u2019d\ntried to more carefully form a plan. Still in its abstract, the idea fell apart\nand I scowled at him. \u201cWhat?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe cartoons I\u2019ve never\nwatched. What does it explain?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This time there <em>was<\/em>\nsomething in his voice, an odd, almost wistful sort of curiosity and damn if\nthat didn\u2019t make that ache in my chest expand. Irritated even more, I crossed\nmy arms over my chest and glared at the filthy semi with enough intensity that\nmy will alone should have melted through the steel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThat\u2019s easy. It explains why\nyou have more in common with a droid than a person. What kind of kid doesn\u2019t\nhave time to <em>indulge in cartoons<\/em>? Was your daddy too busy trying to\nbuild you into the ultimate assassin or something?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Spectre\u2019s mouth tightened.\n\u201cNo, Tia. His intentions were to make me into the ultimate monster. That\u2019s even\nworse than an assassin.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The ache in my chest was gone\nnow, replaced by an awful cold.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I wished I hadn\u2019t flung that last bit out at him. But it was too late to take it back.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.smashwords.com\/books\/view\/1122793\">A<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.goodreads.com\/en\/book\/show\/14915175\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">dd on Goodreads<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.smashwords.com\/books\/view\/1122793\"><br><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Blade-Song-Colbana-Files-Book-ebook\/dp\/B008G0R6GM?&amp;_encoding=UTF8&amp;tag=shilwalk-20&amp;linkCode=ur2&amp;linkId=88df263d0e9258e6022b2050888f6cd5&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=9325\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/product\/B00FPSCXAW?&amp;_encoding=UTF8&amp;tag=shilwalk-20&amp;linkCode=ur2&amp;linkId=82d5e3e6768785b5e6d9463f6eec1a9c&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=9325\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/product\/B008G0R6GM?&amp;_encoding=UTF8&amp;tag=shilwalk-20&amp;linkCode=ur2&amp;linkId=e5b6f54db2fa2aeb0ef9d0eaf4947de4&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=9325\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Amazon<\/a>&nbsp;| <a href=\"https:\/\/books.apple.com\/us\/book\/night-blade\/id721914741\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Apple Books<\/a>&nbsp;| <a href=\"https:\/\/books.apple.com\/us\/book\/blade-song\/id538983604\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Barnes &amp; Noble<\/a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.kobo.com\/us\/en\/ebook\/blade-song\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Kobo<\/a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/play.google.com\/store\/books\/details\/J_C_Daniels_Blade_Song?id=1i6EEAAAQBAJ\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Play<\/a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.smashwords.com\/books\/view\/210400\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Smashwords<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image is-resized\">\n<figure class=\"alignright size-full\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1170\" height=\"1755\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.shilohwalker.com\/website\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Night-Blade-Cover-Flat_20241127_160851_0000.png?resize=1170%2C1755&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Night Blade- shows a young woman with a sword against a dark nightscape.\" class=\"wp-image-111874\" style=\"width:200px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.shilohwalker.com\/website\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Night-Blade-Cover-Flat_20241127_160851_0000.png?w=2000&amp;ssl=1 2000w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.shilohwalker.com\/website\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Night-Blade-Cover-Flat_20241127_160851_0000.png?resize=133%2C200&amp;ssl=1 133w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.shilohwalker.com\/website\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Night-Blade-Cover-Flat_20241127_160851_0000.png?resize=768%2C1152&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.shilohwalker.com\/website\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Night-Blade-Cover-Flat_20241127_160851_0000.png?resize=1024%2C1536&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.shilohwalker.com\/website\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Night-Blade-Cover-Flat_20241127_160851_0000.png?resize=1365%2C2048&amp;ssl=1 1365w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1170px) 100vw, 1170px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Night Blade # 2<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Kit Colbana is always biting off more than she can chew.
