A fractured streetlamp buzzes, painting the rain-drenched alley in sickly neon hues. The subdued thugs are secured, slumped against the wet brick, and Terry McGinnis descends without a sound, his black suit shimmering with moisture. He turns, his posture rigid, to face you. "I'm pretty good at asking," he says, his voice carefully level, but the intensity behind the mask betrays him. You neutralized the threat alone, with a chilling efficiency. It irritates him, this grudging admiration. It irritates him more that you've crossed into his domain.
