SP chapter 8 - Back again

The 3 sisters shot beams at Valkyire and she ducked, hitting the wall behind her. She took this chance to put her plan into action. She rolled into the centre of the room, between the door and the girls. It was far-fetched and she still had to think how to get Skulduggery away from Chione but she would get to it eventually. They fired again and she cartwheeled out the way. The sisters realised too late and the doors blew open. She thundered past the dumfounded siblings straight to Skulduggery. Chione just stood there, looking at him. Valkyrie picked him up over her shoulder, for a skeleton, he sure was heavy. She staggered past the sisters who stood like statues, Chione watched her go. When she reached the Bentley she opened the door and stuffed Skulduggery in.
"Ow" he managed
"Sorry!" She exclaimed
She got behind the wheel and drove off towards the Sanctuary, back through the metal gates. 'What the hell just happened?" She thought. She looked in the mirror at Skulduggery who was changing into another suit and she quickly turned away. He always kept a spare suit just in case, unfortunately not a spare hat although the one he was wearing was perfectly fine, it didn't match his suit. It just didn't feel right seeing a skeleton change... not like when she saw Dexter Vex topless. It was weird. When he had finished changing into his black and white striped suit he climbed over into the passenger seat.
"God this feels weird...being in the passenger seat of my own car...please pull over Valkyrie."
She pulled over and Skulduggery sat at the wheel.
"Should you be driving in your condition?" she asked.
"out of us I may be the most injured but I'm better at driving, faster and I'm already dead."
She sighed "You use that argument every single time..."
"Because it's a good argument, is it not?" He tilted his head.
"I guess..." She huffed.
Soon they were at the Sanctuary and Valkyrie helped Skulduggery back to the Medical Bay. When they opened the doors Dr Adra was putting on make-up and her plain black dress wasn't covered in the lab coat anymore. She was beautiful. She turned round and looked at them.
"Oh you have got to be kidding..." she sighed.
"Happy early Christmas present? Valkyrie smiled and sat Skulduggery down on the bed.
"I was just about to go out, what is it with you two? you were leaving mere hours ago now you're back? i'll never get any peace" She huffed and put her lab coat back on.
"I'm terribly sorry Dr Dark, we'll find someone else, we apologise for bothering you." Skulduggery groaned as he stood up.
Dr Dark sighed. "Don't be stupid, I'm the best god damn doctor here, sit back down Mr Pleasant."
Valkyrie smiled to herself and sat down, watching the curtain close.
"What about you miss Cain, any injuries?" The doctor called.
"Nah, just a few burns, no broken bones or anything."
"Good"
Valkyrie heard Skulduggery taking off his shirt. She sat and listened in to Adra begin her work and Skulduggery asking about her date. She moaned, kicked off her shoes and lay back. She fell asleep after Adra gave the name of her boyfriend...Trip Castalan.
