41 " Tell me, what smells like shit and screams like a girl? (Syn)(He shot the Partini in the knee.)That’s right. You. (Syn) "
― Sherrilyn Kenyon , Born of Fire (The League: Nemesis Rising #2)
42 " Let’s find someplace where there aren’t any dead people, insects, or rodents. For that matter, someplace that’s big enough to accommodate both of us without crimping any internal organs. (Shahara)Picky, picky, picky. (Syn) "
43 " You do know I am my father’s son, right? People don’t talk to me that way and live. (Syn)Oh, like I fear you. Never. Besides, a fight might dislodge whatever has crawled up your sphincter and bring back the much nicer version of you. (Shahara) "
44 " [Vik] Okay, I’ll drop the subject. But if you ever do that to me again, I’ll stab you in the penis, which I’m sure will hurt.”[Syn] “Yeah, it would.”[Vik] “Good. Now I’m powering down for a bit to conserve my power. "
45 " Aren’t you afraid they’ll arrest you? (Shahara)I wasn’t a convict, Dagan. I was an illegally purchased slave. My owner has no legal claim on me. And I’m no longer a kid learning my powers. I’m a full-grown man with an ax I want to bury in the forehead of anyone dumb enough to come at me. I defy the bastards to try something now. (Nero) "
46 " I’m so sorry! Are you okay? (Shahara)Other than the fact that I feel like my rib just punctured a lung, sure, I’m all right. (Syn) "
47 " You’re being remanded into Gourish custody…dead. (a Partini)‘Cause let’s face it, dead was just easier. Or so they thought.’ (Syn) "
48 " You look like you were chewed up by a wolf and shit down the wrong side of a mountain. (Kasen) "
49 " Excuse me, but I’ve been to some of the toughest zones in the galaxy to get my targets. And I have never once gone after a target and failed. Ever. (Shahara)Yeah, but you’ve never been chased before. It’s a lot harder to be the prey than it is to be the predator. (Syn) "
50 " Aren’t you afraid one of them will betray you? Take it all away? (Shahara)I’m sure one will eventually, but that’s the least of what keeps me up at night. Trust me, there are a lot worse things in life than loosing a few credits. (Syn) "
51 " C’mon, friend. It’s two on one. You sure don’t look like you’re up to those odds. (Stranger)You can’t be talking to me. I don’t have prokas for friends. And I assure you I could gut you both before your stench had time to catch up to your fall. (Syn) "
52 " So what options were left?Kill her. Hide the body.If only he could...Damn, stupid conscience. Why had the gods given them that gift? It definitely should have come with a return policy. "

54 " The lies we tell ourselves to survive seldom bring peace to our souls.""-Nero "
55 " Value isn’t calculated by a person’s net worth or income. It’s calculated by integrity and decency. "
56 " She took a seat by his feet and eyed the half-empty bottle in his hand, then shifted her gaze to the other three empty bottles on the floor. 'Are you drunk?' 'Comfortably Inebriated,' he said with a dark laugh, thinking of Shahara and her continuous need to know what C.I. stood for. Nykyrian scoffed. 'Well, if you get any more comfortable, buddy, I'll have to call in a med-tech.'"- Kasen, Syn, & Nykyrian "
57 " But then she’d trained her sister from an early age that she would always make everything okay. Whatever Tessa asked, she gave. No questions asked. Shahara "
