With deep intent Markus listened to Ryan and nodded as he spoke. “I see… I hope you understand I may confiscate your weapons for a bit.” He stood up and turned towards the door watching as it opened and with a sigh reached up running a hand through his hair. “Why can’t I interrogate people without interruption.” he mumbled to himself. “Bring down the food for me and William here. Then take Ryan back up with you so he can eat breakfast and maybe get something to patch his head up.” Markus moved to a chair and plopped down in it. “And Ryan if you keep flirting with Ace. I’ll make sure you regret it.” He didn’t say anything more as he stared at William from across the room. If eyes could shoot lasers William would be a melted puddle of person.

He tapped the meat tenderizer on his leg and took a deep breath and picked up his cup of coffee taking a sip. He then pulled out his cellphone and turned on music that played loudly throughout the house so that once it was just Markus and William downstairs if something did happen all they’d be able to hear upstairs was the music. Very loudly and suddenly Credence Clearwater Revival came on. ‘I see the bad moon arising, I see trouble on the way, I see earthquakes and lightnin, I see those bad times today.’ Markus started humming along as he waited for the basement to clear out.
