As Mira was dragged away screaming, Kai did not react, other than with a disbelieving smile. "I kill people for money. Did you expect me to tell the truth?"<br/><br/>Silas nodded at his wife. "We cannot do anything for the girl. If we decide to destroy PM and she escapes, then so be it. If not, then we will be indebted to them.<br/>Besides, I have no wish to fight whatever being has two killers of their caliber on a leash."<br/>He turned from her to face Kai.<br/>"Take us to PM, shifter. We will decide your fate there."<br/><br/>Though he was well aware of what might happen, Kai bristled at the remark. "Don't talk like you have any say in my 'fate'. If I decided to kill you, you'd be dead. Not even someone like you can dodge bullets."<br/>Silas stared at the upstart, and Kai matched his stare with a threatening one of his own.<br/>Silas looked away first, to his wife, who was giving him a look. He shrugged, and spoke in elven again. "He is right. I cannot dodge bullets."<br/><br/>Kai led them to the car, where Plum had restrained Mira, but hadnot gagged her. Unsurprisingly, she looked like she wantedto scream at him some more. "Don't." He said. "You need to remember that I can and will kill you, even in public, even in front of them."<br/>Silas said nothing, and told Kallista in Old not to either. Without weapons, they would likely lose a fight in the small car, and neither of them had carried weapons for a long time.<br/>"See if you can catch the nymph off guard." he said in a low voice, making sure to speak only in Old.<br/>"I don't appreciate not being able to understand you." Kai said, now back in his normal form.<br/>Silas laughed. "I don't care."<br/><br/>Sent from my LGL44VL using Tapatalk
