The Vault, Somewhere, Sunday Morning

[not_a_whiner]

The vault door stood large and broad in the hallway - so large and broad that it was as if the corridor itself had had to grow several sizes to accommodate it. It was a dark red, and its surface was almost completely smooth but for the slots where three keys would fit.

It exuded quiet menace.

Thanks for taking the bait, GOB! Now it was about twice as easy to use the knife to cut your head off!

Okay, it still kind of sucked, but it was easier. Atton had applied himself to the task now, though, so he was going to have to see it through.

GOB had made a huge mistake.

He would have said so, too, except for the speech center thing. And now his throat being opened slowly but surely.

But he would have his revenge! As he exploded into dust, he had the smug satisfaction that Atton would have him in his sinuses FOR DAYS. Just try and sneeze him out!

Atton sneezed. Then he sneezed a second time. He stumbled up to his feet, because if a bleeding gut wound wasn't going to keep Atton Rand down, then neither would impromptu anemia.

He sneezed a third time.

"I'm really angry now."
