William's about to give a reply to Adrian, when his vision starts to blurr and he sees Adrian's eyes take on an evil yellow glow, with bloody tears running down from them. His canines seem to grow a few inches with a sickly pulsating sensation.
Then a slap across his face with a belt buckle from his bastard father and he's in back in the little alley, a rusty knife in his hand, snow falling softly around him.
The slap actually helps clear his mind, just a little, but it's all William needs to regain his composure. His father lashes his belt once more toward William, but this time, he catches the belt and pulls, hard, making his father lose his balance.
"I told you to go and fuck yourself, you bastard. Do I have to kill you again and again?!" He yells at him, spittle flying from his lips. Then he takes a quick step forward, then another and jams the rusty knife into one of his father's eyes, gleaming yellow, like Adrian's. He twists and turns the knife, black blood gushing over his hand.
Then he's back in church, steadying his pace. His right hand dart for his pistol as he quickly checks first on Danny - Alouette has him, good - then on to Jake and Adrian.
I'll take care of your passenger, boy, if you can't do it yourself.
