ANGELS
Three choices
Chapter 4
Thereupon did St. Nuke reply to the leader of the Angels in a cold voice, saying,
2“We are the exception.
3“You have had your way for a long long time,
4i“And you have done what you wanted to do, when you wanted to do it, wherever you wanted to do it, no matter who got hurt.
5“But that is over now,
6“Because you have come here,
7“And this is our jhome,
8“Which would frighten you,
9“If you thought about it at all.”
10At this, the Angels commenced to laugh again, but St. Nuke continued speaking, as follows:
11k“I shall give you three choices,
12“Because we will enjoy watching you try to think about them.
13l“Your first choice is to attack mall of us you see standing before you,
14“In which case you will all die in the next ten minutes.
15n“Your second choice is to have your leader oppose me in single combat, and when your leader is dead, we will let the rest of you leave in peace, because that is our way.
16o“Your third choice is to try to escape from Punk City now,
17“By riding as fast as you can up South Street,
18“Back the way you came.
19“Of course, if you try to escape back the way you came,
20p“You won’t make it,
21q“Because something will stop you and kill you all.
22“Something called the rShuteye Train.”
