- La Spectre de la Salope de Moto
-
-
-
- It is one of the crossroads of time. History has ebbed and flowed
- through the fields of the Alsace, marched across the muddy fields,
- built roads and even fast moving weapons of terror just to own this
- place, even if only for a brief moment. It is Paris. From a circle
- of huts in prehistoric times it grew into a medieval fortress and
- spread its influence worldwide until it became the world's own
- jewel. It has been clamoured for and lusted after, it has been
- courted and besieged, beset with plague, and even conquered. Yet,
- it rises above earthly intrigue with a peculiar timeless quality.
-
- A foreign invader passes through this evening. An English rain,
- having lost its way, has meandered into the French night and spends
- its energy in delicate droplets over what any Parisian will tell
- you is the centre of the universe.
-
- Ancient, rounded cobblestones still dot the edges of the Champs
- Elysees. The Parisian rain coats them with a thin sheen that
- reflects the lights of the diminished 3 a.m. traffic bustle. The
- grand street, built by the Romans, and paraded upon by centuries of
- Emperors and tyrants, truly never sleeps. This night, an unfamiliar
- sound cascades against the facades of buildings built by Bonaparte.
- Annette strengthens her grip on the death shifter, and releases the
- clutch. The angry throat of the Harley Davidson resonates gruffly
- as she twists the throttle.
-
- Annette does not belong here, but she will never leave. She is in
- an alleyway behind an ancient stone building that houses a pharmacy
- on the ground floor. An elevated tramway, a crazy lattice of iron
- left over from the Industrial Revolution, hovers overhead and a dim
- light, flickering from above, is all that illuminates her. Tiny
- unpleasant apartments fill the upper floors of the building.
-
- She is not young. In the dimness, it is hard to tell that she is
- naked, save for her boots and leather jacket. The Gang colours on
- the back of the jacket are not legible. The appendicitis scar that
- slashes through loins which have swollen slightly with age is
- barely in evidence. Her breasts have begun to sag slightly. She
- removes a lipstick from a pocket in the jacket, and moves it
- circularly on her nipples. Hot pink.
-
- She is ready. She twists the throttle hard, and again unleashes the
- clutch. The rumble of the big bike's lurching start can be felt in
- the apartments above, mostly full of misfits and the down and out.
- She guns the bike, expertly maneuvering around the detritus
- scattered in the alleyway, pulling the death shift back towards her
- crotch in perfect sequence to the thrum of the engine, lets the
- clutch go again, and twists the throttle back hard.
-
- She bursts onto the Champs Elysee, scattering a few Citroens and
- Deux Cheveaux, guns the bike, and shifts again. Small puddles
- vaporize in her wake as she makes the throaty Harley sing. Drivers
- of other vehicles scream other world obscenities as she breaks the
- 100mph mark, still accelerating.
-
- Annette does not reply to them. She never talks. She just rides.
