Clarence thought for a moment, actually considering this question. Would he break the law he swore to uphold to make this city a better place, even without knowing the final result? It was at that moment that he realized, he had already done that. He had let this man go free, allowed him to continue his work without knowing how things would go. He hadn't swore to uphold the law, he had swore to protect the people of Columbia. "Yes.. Yes I would." Clarence towards back towards him, watching the large man, obviously considering something as well. Did this have to do with the group of people from earlier? Maybe they weren't terrorists, but people who are trying to do the right thing for the city. But did they condone this man's actions, or did they just look away when another body was found?
"Violence will not end the violence, only make it grow." Clarence began to feel sick, realizing what he was about to do. "I never saw the costume, I was just inquiring about a recent.. breaking and entering." He knew this would come back to bite him, whether it was due to the truth becoming known or another dead body showing up. Clarence stepped away from the large man, allowing for his escape. Clarence looked him up and down, before turning away. He ran his hand through his hair, a pit in his stomach. He knew what was right, that he should arrest this man. But how could what's right, also be wrong? There was no good answer to this, as any choice he made, he would regret it.
Sorry it's taking me so long, we got a new puppy! Tomorrow morning I have school, but I will post once I get the chance!
The last words to come out of Leroy's mouth resonated, raising more questions than answers. He glanced over, noticing a few people glancing their way. Lowering his voice to almost a whisper, Clarence spoke again, "Do you think I wouldn't love to put half of those people behind bars, but trying only gets you and those you care about hurt! I don't know what you and those are people are trying to do, but it won't end well... It never does." Beaks tearing into flesh, blunt objects assaulting his bones. He knew the consequences of those who were caught even thinking about going against the "leaders" of this city. What would happen to this man, he didn't want to even think about. He had two options, turn this man in and let him face whatever lay in store for him.. or let the man go, and face whatever punishment came with that. He waited for the response, the deciding factor in whether this man could continue with his life. A while ago, there wouldn't have been a decision to make.. but Clarence could relate to what this man was feeling. The only difference between the two, was that this man wasn't afraid to act on his thoughts.
This is gonna get ugly .-.
"I never saw a kid! All I saw was a man, mutilated and abandoned in an alley. I know who he was, I know what he was a part of! I don't like him anymore than you do! After what they did to me.. I would like nothing more than to see them all burn!" He spat out through clenched teeth. This man acted like he was on the FOotR's side, as if he agreed with their actions. The mutilated bodies they left, the destroyed families... But there was nothing he could do, the memory of pain flashing, sending a jolt into his ribs. "You killed a man, which makes you no better than him! These people," He stopped himself, lowering his voice, "These are who I'm trying to protect! To hell with Comstock, Fink, and you! With you three, it doesn't matter who you destroy, because the end justify the means? Well I'm the one who has to deal with the means, who has to prevent mass chaos, who has to pick up the pieces. It's people like you, self-proclaimed heroes, who are going to destroy this city. Those who think they are doing the right thing. I won't let you go on." Clarence pulled a pair of handcuffs out, "You are under arrest."
"There's no use running, I've seen your face." Clarence spoke, a pit in his stomach, as he tried to figure out what to do next. "You're going to come to the station with me. There doesn't have to be violence." Clarence was already thrown off by Leroy's willingness to go along with him into the alley. If Clarence took him to the station, they would realize that he had intentionally left him out of the report... but if he didn't, he was no better than those on the force working for Comstock and Fink. He finally spoke, demanding answers. "Why did you kill that man? Who were those people?" He wasn't expecting to get answers, but it couldn't hurt to ask. He readied his Undertow vigor, the water splashing from his hand onto the sleeve of the overcoat. His other hand, while down to his side, was ready to grab the pistol at any moment. "Answer me!" He barked, waiting to see how the murderer reacted.
Clarence didn't know what to say, all the possibilities running through his mind. The most prevalent one being to shoot this man in the face, to stop him from killing anybody else. He could tell the man was as shocked to see him as he was to see the man. Either way, Clarence had seen his face so there would be no getting out of this one. "Alley... now." Clarence glanced around at the civilians, sweat beginning to show on his forehead. Leroy would have a physical advantage, but he didn't appear to be armed... appear was the key word. He didn't want this to be physical, and it looked like the man didn't either. The odds of Clarence running into him the first time were low... but a second time, that was almost impossible. Clarence waited for Leroy to make a move, ready to act accordingly to how Leroy acted.
