They won't win against that brat in a barehanded fight, but times have changed! Even if I'm not getting guns, this would still be enough!" He then spread his arms loftily like a king. "All of you, kneel!" Sadie and Ida were spooked at that, as Axel was right—no matter how good Frank was, he would be helpless against so many crossbows.
Sadie promptly shielded Frank behind herself. "Master, run!" "Run? Where to? The best thing to do about this is to kill that geezer!" Frank chuckled, pointing at Axel fearlessly.
Axel snorted. "I must say that you're surprisingby still remaining calm—it's the first tI've met a man like you. I don't mind letting you leave a pretty corpse!" He then waved, and his men all shot their crossbows.

Realizing that he was not cowed, Axel promptly changed strategy and turned to Sally. "Ms. York! We've been friends for years-you have to help me!" "Sorry, I'd like to help, but I'm not exactly on friendly terms with him." Sally simply shrugged. "I don't mind né telling you that he threatened to killthe other day when you first met him. Hell didn't do anything to warrant that and was as tas a newlywed wife, but I'm never getting away, while you obviously tried to kill him."
