She nearly ruptured herself forcing a grimy window open, but that did give her a surprisingly magnificent view of sunrise over Redmond, filling the skyline smog with bloody light like the mouth of hell.

Casing her ex-neighbour’s vomit-scented pigsty of a flat, she had no scruples about treating the cuts on her legs with a cheap medkit under the sink, or yoinking a loose credstick. Anyone else whose beauty sleep they’d broken up had enough evident sense not to come out and complain this was the Barrens, and more than somewhat.Įnrica did her civic duty by dragging the corpse off the landing and making a note to call the Organ Grinders. She drew up her bare knees to her chin and felt the gunbarrel’s warmth through cold sweat on her brow, as the ork crashed down.Ī baby was crying on the level below. Then she consciously put another bullet through the ork’s chest, then another, then two through his cram-ravaged cueball skull. Skidded back through the trash as she got her gun round, fired. Enrica barely slid the blow down a rising block crashed down on her hoop. Bare chest, bare feet, eyes deadly-dull as a mad elephant. Which came in handy when the cramhead neighbour flung wide his door, not only screaming even louder but swinging a baseball bat.

But never too zonked, in Redmond, for pulling some boots onto her slim elfy legs that would stand up to broken syringes and capsules all over the landing, before she unhooked the chain–or, of course, for sticking a Fichetti 600 handgun down the back of her panties. Enrica Croce had been far too zonked after a hard night’s legwork through Touristville to get dressed, just for ambling from the mattress in her fleabag apartment along to room five, and asking the cramhead screaming about purple dancing spiders to, like, quiet down a skosh. It could only have happened in Redmond at three in the morning.
