[ There's no warning. One moment he's looking away, not thinking of a threat, and the next there's a hand on his throat. Pulling him off balance, pulling him down. It's like getting grabbed by someone in full armor, except the kid doesn't crush his throat or snap his neck. Just holds it there. Proving a point.
You would do well.....
Sharkface grins wide. Kid's modified. Like Angela except more. Got the dead eyed look some soldiers get after the damage has been done. Bad combination, probably. In another world he would have tried to stop it. Put his hands up and tried to talk like CT, who never met a situation he couldn't defuse. In the old world he would have tried to turn things. For CT, for the people they'd tried to be.
In this one, CT died hard and alone. Sharkface bares his teeth and laughs, standing back up to his full height. He's going to lose. The kid's too fast. The choice is yours.
Yeah. Yeah, it sure fucking is.
He laughs. Shifts into stance and keeps laughing. It's starting to hurt his throat. ]
