Oh wow! Guess is my turn to do one of these huh?
Thanks @anotherbluesunday for the Tag! Hope you like this little excerpt from my W.I.P.
WARNING: description of dead body and wounds/violence

Carefully, they grabbed the body's left side and began pushing until it smoothly rolled on its stomach.
Or at least that was the plan, for as soon as Wednesday's eyes came upon the dead man's exposed back, she retraced her arms as though she'd been burned. Leaving Pugsley to bear its whole weight, causing the boy to push the body away, which turned with a loud 'smack' resonating across the room.
"Hey, what gives!?" he complained, but Wednesday paid him little attention, refusing to tear her eyes from what lay before her.
It began from his lower back, stretching up to his rhomboid major. There were three, superficial at the start but growing in intensity as they went up, to the point where a trio of puncture holes adorned their end. As though the aggressor had decided to switch tactics midway.
The victim had been hooked on his back and slammed against the ground.

"What is it...?"
Mouth ajar, Tyler stared at me a moment longer then looked down. Sniffled and sighed a heavy sigh a moment later. "Dad was promoted. He'll be the chief engineer and payload expert for the next five missions to the ISS."
"Isn't...Isn't that good news?" Waiting until he looked up, I was more confused than before. "He's being promoted. Aren't you happy?"
Tyler tossed me a sad lopsided smile. "We're moving Wen. At the end of the summer."
"What...?" I gawked. Moving? Why? "But you're in school here. And there's a Strat-port in Long Beach. Can't he just stay here and--"
"They need him in Houston."
The world swayed. Houston? Houston Houston as in Texas. Why? What was the logic when he could just fly out for his missions and come back to California afterward?
"When did you find out?"
Tyler looked at me--the corner of his lip twitching before he looked down again. "This morning."
"So you're leaving...permanently. Just like that."
"Yeah." He didn't look up. Just stared at the ground then murmured, "I'm sorry Wednesday."
