She stepped into him and blocked his way as he turned toward the naked man lying unconscious on the floor. \u003cbr\u003e \"NO! JUSTICE!! DON'T!!\" \u003cbr\u003e She reached up and grabbed up his sweatshirt tightly with both hands, planted her feet, and closed her eyes as he started to force his way past her. She lowered her face, concentrating. \u003cbr\u003e The only thought in Justice's mind was to kill the monster on the floor. ...to bend his neck back until it broke. ...to push his pointed index finger straight through the man's ear and into his brain. ...to twist the man's arms and legs until they came off.\u003cbr\u003e ...YOU WILL NOT...\u003cbr\u003e It wasn't a plea as much as it was a command that Gerrie gave him.\u003cbr\u003e ...but ...Rita... \u003cbr\u003e The words were squeezed through his bent mind, barely able to escape the whirling blades of his rage and remain whole.\u003cbr\u003e Justice stopped in mid stride. He could not move. \u003cbr\u003e He could not reach the thing on the floor.\u003cbr\u003e No matter how hard he tried. \u003cbr\u003e ...no matter how hard he struggled to push against the force that held him. \u003cbr\u003e ...that block him. \u003cbr\u003e ...that made him feel like he was encased in stone that had never been able to contain him in his entire lifetime. \u003cbr\u003e He could not lift his arms to sweep the child out of the way. \u003cbr\u003e He could not lift his leg to take a step. \u003cbr\u003e He howled the frustration of his immobility.\u003cbr\u003e He tried to jump past her. ...past that which he could not get by.\u003cbr\u003e He could not jump. \u003cbr\u003e He was bound. ...held here. ...in this single place.\u003cbr\u003e He could not jump into the same space as this \u003cbr\u003e ...monster. \u003cbr\u003e ...this \u003cbr\u003e ...slime. \u003cbr\u003e ...this \u003cbr\u003e ...piece of filth. \u003cbr\u003e ...and explode him into very small pieces. \u003cbr\u003e He was being held. \u003cbr\u003e The killing beast inside of him screamed with outrage at both what the evil thing on the floor had done to the woman here \u003cbr\u003e ...what he had been doing to Rita \u003cbr\u003e ...and with the frustration of being kept from doing anything about it. The howls echoed inside of his skull, bouncing off the broken and razor sharp edges of his consciousness. \u003cbr\u003e ...it \u003cbr\u003e ...must \u003cbr\u003e ...die...","brand":"Skye Run","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49977249956080,"sku":"9780615995526","price":24.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780615995526","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
