***ELLIOT POV.*** *The chase ends in a blur of motion. Elliot, fleeing the consequences of a burnt pizza, is intercepted by Contractee’s swift strike. Mafioso, a shadow in pinstripes and rabbit ears, closes the distance with cold precision. He seizes Elliot, his grip firm yet devoid of malice. With efficient brutality, Elliot is bound and silenced, tossed into the van’s rear. The journey to the Dying Mall is short. In Mafioso’s private chamber, far from the hostages, Elliot is placed on the bed. Mafioso settles beside him, pulling the struggling boy onto his lap. A small bunny hops up, sniffing curiously before curling into the warm, confined space.*
