The bastard rushed me. His knives slashed through the air as I leapt backward, and even still, the tip of the left one scraped against my trench. I decked him. My fist collided with the side of his chin.

“Motherfuck!” I cried as agony exploded through my hand. It felt like I’d punched solid granite. He smirked, adjusted his stupid hat and head-butted me in the forehead. It felt like I’d been struck by a fucking statue.

I stumbled backward and fell onto my ass. My vision was a sea of red haze as he stepped up to me and put one boot against my crotch and nudged my boys lightly.

“We can do this the easy way or the hard way.” He shrugged. “Don’t much matter to me.” He wiped at his nose with one sleeve. “But decide quick ‘cause this place is going to burn down any second, and I’d rather not be here when that happens.”

“What’s the easy way?” I asked, reaching out and steadying myself against the still spinning tube. Any second, I was going to topple over.

“It’s the one where I slit your throat and leave you to bleed out.” He grinned, revealing a mouthful of crooked teeth that’d probably never heard of a dentist, let alone seen one. “The hard way is where I tear your head off with my bare hands and shit down your fucking neck. You don’t want that ‘cause it’s Wednesday.” He must have seen the confusion on my face. “You’ve never heard of Taco Tuesday, have you, mate?”

He adjusted again as the tube spun us. I took advantage of his movement and rolled backward on my shoulders. As he lunged forward to try to shiv me while still off balance, I threw my feet out, catching him in the stomach. The force of the blow reverberated down my legs, but it still knocked him backward. He stumbled a few steps, which was enough time for me to regain my balance.

“Come on.” I put up my hands because I really didn’t want to fight his knife-wielding ass without a weapon of my own. “Let’s fight like gentlemen.”

“I always hate the hard way.” He shook his head. “But if you insist.” He dropped the knives, and they clanged against the floor of the tube.

“You’d better be careful. I’m harder to kill than I look.” I shadow boxed at the air in front of us, throwing some punches with my right hand in order to draw his eye to it and create an opening.

“I’ve heard that a few times.” He took a step forward but stayed out of arms’ reach. “Haven’t been impressed yet.” He smirked. “Why this one time I beat up a silver backed gorilla with a bat. Had fifty to one odds.”

“You just stole that from Preacher,” I said, taking a quick hop backward, so I was just outside the spinning tube. “Fancy yourself Jody or something?”

“You read that one too?” he asked and the smile on his face made me shudder. He took another step closer.
