chapter 46 out of the empire of death in the absolute darkness ( not a glimmer of the dead-white quarry walls that surround them , not a glimmer of hope , hope long since discarded like all those dead batteries and digested elephant balls in their wake ) , max shakes him out of supposed sleep and whispers hoarsely that he can hear her creeping up on them with her bare hands , cant find his flashlight , hed use the sledgehammer or the crowbar on her but wouldnt her blood on them be like her hands on them and drain them dry ?
