turn to leave?

Sighing, Nils shrugged and turned to leave.

"You see lass, the boy knows that your life is not worth his. Perhaps after I get what is mine I'll get you to the whore house and earn a little more." The tall man laughed and tightened his arm around her throat.

"Please help me, I'll do whatever you want." the woman begged Nils as he slowly walked towards the door.

Suddenly there came a dull click as the hammer of the flintlock was pulled back. In less then a blink of an eye Nils spun around and let fly the dagger that was in his hand. Almost in slow motion one could see the dagger soar through the air towards its target as the hammer of the flintlock was just finishing its rise to fire.
