Ellis's foot missed entirely, and the impact shredded ligaments along the way. At the same time, Andrew's grip shifted, his Dragon Claw morphing fluidly as it locked onto Ellis's elbow joint.

He looked like a half-dead animal, wheezing through a mouth full of blood.

arts, man-true Eastern technique! Not some flashy showboating crap. That was kill-or-be-killed fighting!" "T totally misjudged him... Genesis Dispensary's been untouchable for years.
