“It was like something from a dream, the underwater kind, everything slowed down. Only, he felt he had complete control over his body. It was as if they were the ones lagging. He could see it all: the third agent would try to get him in a hold around the neck. Persephone would hold fast to his arm so he couldn’t punch or claw at the headlock. And Hermes would step forward and, keeping his gun low, dig it into Brendan’s stomach. If he resisted, the third agent would choke him until he passed out.... And if the brief struggle caused a scene (even in New York, where people were conditioned to mind their business, someone might get involved) it wouldn’t matter to the agents. The agents could do anything they wanted to do. As the heat closed in on him, he dropped low to the ground. Persephone had a vice-like hold on his arm, so he used this to his advantage, and took her wrist in his own hand, and bent her over as he dropped. Agent three ended up connecting with her above Brendan’s head, a tangle that caused Persephone to cry out and release her grip.MoreLessRead More Read Less
