Escape

All of the sudden I realized that this couldn't be real. As soon as that thought hit, the first thing I saw was a huge thug standing over me with a shiv. That is when my instincts kicked in. I rolled, dodging the knife, then karate chopped the thug on the neck. I hear a snap, then he collapsed onto the ground, twitching briefly. I stood up just in time to see Dumas's car drive away. My head pounded, and not just from pain. I felt my lips draw back from my teeth in a mad, obscene grin.

It was time to have some fun.
