Minutes passed with William sitting still. Boredom persuaded him to close his eyes, but the cat's fiery glare kept him awake. Even Dex, a necrolyzer with a Cerberus handgun, didn't scare him as much as that beast did. Suddenly, William heard screams and roars from outside. Looking through the window, he saw a giant hellhound surrounded by necrolyzers. Huh, wasn't that dog under Bernard's command? It looked like the overgrown gray-haired men wanted to attack him. The gargantuan hound howled as the blade of an axe burst out of its neck and sliced its throat open. A leg, followed by an arm, emerged from the opening.

Bernard and Ted stepped in. "I've thought of a brilliant idea, my accursed brother!" Bernard's booming laughter echoed across the room as he approached William. William gulped, his heart pounding wildly. Picking William up by the back of his collar, he said, "Brandon will love this." "No!" William's muscles tensed. In less than a second, he broke through the restraint and thrashed. "No! Help!" "You deserve it." Upon reaching the staircase, Bernard threw William down. "I can die in peace after this." William crashed into the wooden floor face-first. Regaining his composure, he looked around. A severed head of a necrolyzer landed beside him. A man loomed before him, his axe and clothes covered in blood. A one-eyed stare greeted William when he looked up. "He's yours!" Bernard shouted from above. "Enjoy!" Crying, William got up and ran up the stairs. Images of the dead hellhound and necrolyzers earlier flashed across his mind. When he reached the top, though, Bernard kicked him back down. William closed his eyes as he rolled down the steps. At least, he wouldn't see that axe coming down to cleave his

The bus looked more like a subway train. It didn't have any wheels. Instead, in hovered slightly above a metal road. When the bus took off, the teenagers looked out the windows and they saw people who looked like humans, as well as reptile-like creatures. There were also little green men with black eyes and big heads.
This, in combination with the exit wounds on his back, implies that when he was shot, he flew back of a high area and broke a rib.” “Otto, this was of great assistance. It was greatly appreciated,” I
Never fear, never fear, for I am here. Never fear, never fear, don't shed a tear. A pair of forlorn faces this way come. I know them better than some, better than themselves, though not better than the other. I know them not from what they were, nor understand who they are meant to be, but I understand what they are.
I lean over him and brush a wet strand of hair out of his face. The scrape on my shoulder has scabbed over already, but my movement makes it throb again. Day sits up, rubs a hand wearily across his eyes, and glances around our swaying railcar as if searching for something. He looks first at the stacks of crates in one dark corner, then at the burlap lining the floor and the little sack of food and water sitting between us. It takes him a minute to reorient himself, to remember that we’re hitching a ride on a train bound for Vegas.
He looked at his hand. There the knife stood, sticking out of his hand. He suddenly felt the pain and screamed. He held hand closed to him and pulled the knife out. He grabbed a roll of napkins and tried to stop the bleeding.
I beg you," he cried, pleaded, and licked boots before J.K. The last words muttered under his sobbing and heavy breath. "Oh, who has beaten him so much? All scoundrels! Live him alone.
As the ex-speaker of the Ikarus Council descended the staircase of the arena to the animal cells, he heard a scream. It was Anna’s scream. Montague ran, almost tripping down the steps. Next to the cages, he found Anna holding onto the metal bars of the cat cage. She looked horrified.
“You shall be my first victim,” he said with anger in his voice. William was his
This is the moment the court has been waiting for. The instant when courtesy becomes a metaphor for violence. By treating this unnamed knight with all the courtesy they possess, they can now require him to die a noble death at the hands of one of their own, in the sight of all who dare to watch. “The blood gushed from the body, bright on the green/ Yet fell not the fellow, nor faltered a whit.

Valentine threw his arms across his face. And it was gone. He lay there for a few seconds, until he was absolutely sure he wasn’t on fire or about to be ripped apart by something else.
“I have have to try.” I say, slipping jerking my arm free. “This is genocide.” I turn to walk away, when Peter hooks a foot around mine, and knocks me to the ground so hard that I that it drives the air from my lungs and the wound in my side splits open again. I start to jump to my feet, but Peter presses the heel of his boot against my chest.
He had a spoon ready and took a seat on the floor next to me. “I’m not going to eat that,” I said, staring at him. I restrained the impulse to knock the bowl out of his ungrateful hands and beat him up senselessly. He wearily sighed, as if he knew I was going to say that.
