QUOTE : Jeremiah did not pick up the blade. He wanted to kill the messiah king with his bare paws. He wanted to feel the flesh rip with his fingers, and taste the blood on his lips as the life left David’s veins. But David had much experience killing lions. And Jeremiah acted entirely predictably for one. Jeremiah growled. He crouched low, muscles tightened, ready to bound upon his victim. David saw the movements, planned his response. When the Lion Man leapt, David ducked down and rolled beneath the flying assassin who landed in the dirt again. David was still on the ground when Jeremiah gathered himself and immediately jumped toward David again.
