“The stranger runs into the darkness, ignoring the danger that a train might fill the tunnel at any time.” Castle intones, lighting his face from below with a flashlight. A nearby subway train rumbles as it passes.
“He darts into the side passage. A rusted metal door impedes his progress for but a moment, and he kicks it open.”
“Shoulder, not kick.” Laine corrects him, as she examines the corpse.
“He’s trapped in the tiny room! From the doorway, the giant alligator approaches.”
“Nope, stabbed, not bitten.”
“The blind man-bat hybrid approaches.”
“With a switchblade?”
“The Morlocks approach.”
“That works.”
