A scared male: "But-but-"

"Now! For fuck's sake, get your ass out of here..." Sounds of muffled flapping.

"Why are you doing this? You're just a human-"

"I am so sick of hearing that. Leave!"

There was a metallic shifting, a gun being reloaded.

Butch's voice: "Oh,shit..."

Then all hell broke loose. Gunshots, grunts, thuds.

V leaped up from his desk so fast he knocked his chair over.

Only to realize that he was trapped inside by daylight. "
