Dealing With Tony

I knew Tony would come looking for Marina, especially if he had seen the bodies of his men around her store. He would put two and two together and realize that someone had dared to challenge him, to take what was his. I comforted Marina, my voice steady and reassuring. "Don't worry about it, Marina. I'm here. Let me take care of him once and for all."

Marina looked at me, her eyes filled with worry and fear. She wrung her hands, her knuckles white with tension. "But Jack... I know you have these powers, but it will make you a murderer. You'll be hunted by the police all over the world, or some crazy scientist will want to capture you to experiment on you if they find out. You've already killed four of Tony's people, and the police here are on Tony's payroll. I'm scared, Jack. I'm scared for you, for us." Her voice was barely above a whisper, her eyes pleading with me to understand her fears.
