Shay crept down the stairs, only to run into more of the aftermath of Hurricane Brownstone. The bottom of the stairwell led to a short corridor that turned to the right before joining a larger hallway. With the cement walls and stairwell, Brownstone would have been fed straight into a kill box.
Except he wasnât the one who was dead.
A dead Harriken lay against the wall, his face bruised, his eyes closed, and his nose askew. His sword had been driven right through his chest. Another man lay on the floor facedown, a pistol a few feet from his hand. His sword remained in its sheath.
Several flattened bullets littered the floor. Huge chips in the cement walls suggested the man had fired his pistol and missed his target.
Shay began to wonder how these final men could have believed theyâd even have a chance against Brownstone. From what she could tell, theyâd had fortifications and surpriseâ¦but still lost.
Maybe a few rocket launchers or some sort of powerful magic would have helped.
Brownstoneâs voice echoed from the other end of the basement, and the tomb raider sidled closer to him. She holstered her gun and peeked around the corner just in time to see the bounty hunter decapitate one man and rant about barbecue to the second before punching him in the stomach.
The only surprising thing about the sight was that Brownstoneâs second target didnât cough up blood and fall to the ground dead.
His survival told Shay that James must have pulled his punch. After everything sheâd seen in Peru and in the house that night, she didnât believe a normal human could survive such a blow. She wasnât sure what Brownstone wasâother than gayâbut she refused to believe that he wasnât relying on some sort of magic. Normal people just werenât that strong.
James kicked the pistol behind the last man.
âI...apologize to the dog,â the Harriken wheezed. âPlease spare me.â
âHe wasnât just âthe dog.â He had a name.â Brownstone crossed his arms and glared down at the man. âHis fucking name was Leeroy.â
âOkay, okay.â The Harriken lifted his hand placatingly. âHis name was Leeroy.â
âYou donât get it. I want you to apologize to Leeroy using his name.â
âBut heâs dead.â
âAnd youâre gonna join him soon.â
The gangster managed to sit up, though one hand still rested on his stomach. A grimace seemed surgically attached to his face at this point. âBut...youâre really here because you want to know where she is, right?â
Brownstone crouched by the man. âI told you why Iâm here. Because the Harriken murdered my dog.â
âI told them not to do it. I told them we should leave you alone. Iâd heard of you before.â
âThatâs an interesting story, but even if I believed it, I donât fucking care.â Brownstone scratched at an eyebrow. âYou were telling me how the Harriken would grow stronger, get their vengeance on me and come after everyone I love. Donât you remember that?â He shrugged. âIt wasnât exactly ages ago. I know I hit you pretty hard, so maybe your memory is a little fuzzy.
